The prices are too high and the pastries don't taste that good, except for the almond croissant and the baguette.

Located on Bishop between Executive Center and 24 hour fitness. Friendly service. They totally added a special "happy birthday" chocolate piece, candles, cake cutter/server with the matches!! What?! So awesome!! She made the difference for sure. I was a little turned off by the cashier next to her who was a lil rude. However the kindness and smiles of Nancy D (that's the name on the receipt). Casual location, clean, neat, air conditioned. read more

There are so many places to get delicious jasmine green tea in Hawaii but wanted to try this Paris Baguette location since I was nearby. Service was mediocre (as you can see in my photos, my green tea was poured, but sat on the back counter....until the workers decided they were ready to hand them to me). Not sure why the delay, other than they felt it was more important to serve others that came after me (I literally watched them do this....) Paris Baguette offers a good variety of pastries, coffee, drinks, breads, sandwiches, etc ....this particular location seems a little low on hand held pastries but had several cakes available. Outdoor seating is available to enjoy in the amazing weather. Personally, I will pass on this location....perhaps I looked like a tourist and didn't belong in downtown Honolulu....at least that is how the workers made me feel...so they don't need my money. read more

Since today was Sunday I figured free street parking so why not check out Paris Baguette located downtown. This location was their first and it's located on Bishop St. heart of downtown financial district . I remembered when they first opened it was always crowded not anymore . My go to is their Ham and cheese croissant it's very crispy on the outside and the inside is nice a buttery. I believe there's cheese on the outside as well because when you first bite into it it's very crunchy. No very big Bakery I'm sure it gets crowded very fast when there a lot of customers. Service was not great no one greeted me until I came to the counter . Normally someone who's stocking the pastry will ask if there's any question or can they help me with something. It's ok I've noticed they hire lot of young people that could be the problem? . I'm OG so I'm very customer service oriented and no matter what if you provide good customer service people will always come back. read more

Paris Baguette is a bakery-cafe located on Bishop Street, where the old Starbucks use to be. They're part of a Korean chain, specializing in freshly baked cakes, sweet and savory pastries and coffee beverages. We stopped by on a busy weekend morning and waited in the quickly moving line to fill our tray with pastries. With more hungry customers slowly lining up behind us, we grabbed a curry croquette, crab meat croquette, hash brown pastry, hot dog pastry and chocolate croissant. Once at the register, we ordered a Korean iced coffee to share. We waited a short while outside as the staff prepared our coffee and warmed up our savory baked goods. There are a few covered tables outside of the bakery but we grabbed our breakfast and crossed the street to enjoy our meal in the grassy Tamarind Park. Over all a cute cafe in the middle of downtown Honolulu. Definitely try to order in advance online to avoid the line. read more

It's a "quä-sawn" . Making my way downtown, walking fast, faces pass and I'm bakery bound -- dunananananaa Staring blankly ahead, just making my way, making a way thru the morning coffee craa-aa-aowd -- dunananananaa and I need food -- dunununununu something sweet too -- dunununununu and now I wonnnnder... . A great bakery choice if you're within walking distance! Pastries can be reheated upon request - try it for the savory ones - like their curry croquets (: I'm strictly partial to their baked goods and matcha lattes - yes, moi is basic - and I've been happy with my picks. Tho, I tried the cutest sprinkled pink holiday donut that was thoughtfully shared w/ me the other day... pas bon, the heartbreak. . Everything looks delectable in their big display cases. But even with just a few guests inside, the glass can quickly feel like walls. Avoid the morning workday rush. . c'est la vie read more

First timer and I wanted to see the hype was. My first impression of walking in was wow look at all the colorful fruits on display with the yummy pastries. I had to get me a few. Plus I needed me some coffee. Ordering and standing in line went pretty quick. The menu was on displayed and the lady was nice enough to recommend some good drinks. I got a white mocha iced. That was delicious. A little milky but with an extra shot I think it would've been perfect for my taste preference. I would definitely order that again. The pastry I got was a fruity one with the cream and berries. Oh my gosh that was delicious! It was soft and crispy all at the same time. The berries were sweet and didn't leave a bad taste at all. In all, I would definitely come here again! read more

I've never tried any of the drinks or pastries from Paris Baguette, but their cake was delicious and the perfect dessert to bring to a party! I preordered through their app, which made picking up the cake a breeze. The cake came neatly packaged in a box and came with decorations, a cake cutter, and matches. The staff were very friendly. I would definitely get their Strawberry Soft Cream Cake again, as it was very light, not too sweet, fresh, and affordable. read more

I'm a fan of the ham croissant...not heated. I like it cold and the cheese hard. YUM. Savory are pretty good. I don't eat sweets, but the cakes are pretty. Workers are sweet when you get to them, but definitely not big on customer service otherwise. I was also asked if I had Rewards Account. Apparently I did not, but wasn't even offered to start one. Odd. read more

Paris Baguette opened in the former Starbucks location in downtown Honolulu on 2/22/24. Founded and owned by the SPC Group of South Korea in 1986, the Honolulu location is one of 4,000+ locations worldwide. The chain offers pastries, cakes, and breads baked fresh daily, and sandwiches and salads prepared daily as well. The Honolulu location is intended to be a grab-n-go operation for office workers working in downtown with future expansions in the Ala Moana area and Pearl City. The So. Korean pastries are lighter and not as sweet as American pastries. Pastry fillings are often whipped cream that tend to be airy instead of being rich and dense. Breads are softer and less chewy. Lavazza coffee beans are used in making their coffee. Paris Baguette's goal is to do two things better than any other bakery/café franchise, i.e., to provide a comfortable, inviting guest experience and having the highest quality of baked goods and coffees. Its target audience is the upper-class consumers across Asia and the US. With 200+ menu items on rotation, there are display cases filled with pastries, and refrigerated sections with decorated cakes, sandwiches, and salads. With the exception of cakes, all items are self-serve. You get your tray, then a paper liner for your tray, and a plastic glove to grab your pastries (no tongs used here). When you are ready to pay, there is a container near the cash register to dispose your gloves. With so many choices, it's hard to decide what to choose! For the few times being there, I've tried the following: * Mochi donuts. The 3 mochi donuts that I've tried - red strawberry, coconut flake topping over a glaze, and fine sugar topping, are delicious! They're the perfect texture and the right chewiness for mochi donuts. * Sliced ganache cream cake. For chocolate lovers, the creamy chocolate ganache has a rich flavor that just melts in your mouth and is so delicious! * Sliced rainbow cake. While it's pretty to look at with all the different colored layers, the cake has a mild flavor and melts in your mouth. * Jumbo twisted donut. Made with sweet rice flour and sprinkled with cinnamon sugar, it was chewy and tasted like a very tasty churro! It was so large that it had to be bent to fit in the box! * Fruit pastry. The fresh Kiwi, raspberry, strawberry, and mandarin orange complemented the flaky crust. It was very refreshing! Staff is friendly, helpful, and efficient. There is always someone restocking the inventory of pastries, so it's easy to have your questions answered by that person. When you're ready to pay, additional staff is available to box your goods and ensure that your payment has been applied to their rewards program. The interior is bright and clean. As the area is small, sometimes there is a line of people ready to pay who are blocking part of the display case. And because there are a lot of customers going in and out, be mindful that a few flies might wander in. Hours of operation are daily from 6a to 6p. As the bakery is geared to office workers, there may be less inventory on the weekends. If you do not work in downtown, parking may be a problem. There is hard-to-find metered street parking or nearby private parking lots that do not validate parking. It's best to have two people in the car, with one driving and waiting nearby, and the other getting the pastries. Don't forget to sign up for the rewards program of earning 1 point for every $1 spent for future discounts. You also get a free cake slice during the week of your birthday. So glad that Paris Baguette is in HI with plans for expansion elsewhere in HI! Nice to have a choice of pastries, and Korean too! read more

I have been a customer since the opening of this first location in Hawaii. Have to admit, wasn't the biggest fan of it in Korea (they have stiff competition in bakeries and cafes) yet have come to know and love PB for their variety of both sweet AND savory treats. And I have come to love the excellent service of the counter personnel and generous heart of the owner here. Will miss my favorite counter person and her phenomenal service, yet wish Oiwell all the best. ALL the staff I have interacted with here are super helpful! ...Exceptionally service oriented. They have helped me with loading up my car with meeting treats every Saturday. Thank you all! And what do I get? For the group I try to spread my purchase as much as I can and that means lots of "mini" pasteries, mini croissants, mini cream cheese garlic bites (one of my favorites). For me, my favorites are anything with their yummie sourdough bread, the memorable egg salad sandwich stuffed with cucumber slices and basil (could use a pinch of salt but I love that its healthier without), my all time favorite pastry... the pecan tart (too bad that's just seasonal). Parking is non-existent. Have found a host of "regular" cars pulled curbside with hazard lights on to run in and quickly pickup (perhaps I shouldn't encourage that)... if staying to linger, your best bet is street metered parking or one of the many municipal parking close by. Or, if you work in the area then ...just walk. They do have a lovely outdoor seating area! Located just across the street from Tamarind Park on Bishop, just before King Street. Will I be back? Definitely on Saturday tho... thinking of coming this Monday now too..! read more

I am writing to express my serious concern regarding the service at this Paris Baguette location. During my recent visit, the service was exceptionally inefficient, leading to significant delays; in fact, I witnessed another customer leave the store entirely due to the slow pace of service. Beyond the lack of speed, there was a major failure in basic food handling protocols. The staff member (a white young boy) assisting me handled my pastry with his bare hands immediately after handling money on the tray. This is a significant health and safety issue that should not occur in a food service establishment. I have unfortunately had poor experiences at Ala Moana location too and it appears there is a consistent issue with staff training and operational standards. I hope management addresses these lapses in hygiene and efficiency immediately, as my current experience was completely unacceptable. read more

The staff is amazing especially Katie! Love the croissants and pastel de nata. Parking can be a challenge due to the fact it's downtown. read more

-- Ambiance, loved it, pasty galore, so many options but little space to move around and a lot of people. -- Parking, street parking (seen someone's window shattered, probably happened over night ) & need to pay the meter. Free parking on the weekend. OR there is a parking structure next to it, Executive center: $4/hr but seen negative reviews, or Alakea Garage. -- a little cheaper than Okayama Kobo but quality definitely isn't the same. Their (Paris baguette) salted butter roll and butter cream bread isn't as good. * will be back to try more pasties tho * ｡^‿^｡ -- Dubai chocolate matcha : loved how there was Kataifi inside, definitely tasted pistachio syrup (Torani?), a lot of chocolate cold foam, didn't taste the matcha at all because it was mostly ice. * maybe if they offered a bigger cup I could taste everything and mix it well.. & this was $9 read more

We stopped by here today after going to the bank and before picking up lunch. Also right around the corner from 24 hr. It's a small space and was pretty busy during lunch hour. You'll grab a tray and liner and use a hand glove to pick what pastries you'd like. They'll package it at the register. Tried the fruit pastry, pain au chocolat, and the crookie. They were good! Some of the corners of the pastries were a bit dry and crunchy but maybe that can't be avoided. We were looking at the cakes in the chilled section which looked gorgeous and delicious, but decided against it. Will probably not be back unless I happen to be in the area. In general, parking in downtown is difficult and cramped. Definitely worth a stop if you're in the area, but there are a handful of other local bakeries and cafes that might also float your boat! read more

They open from 6am to 6pm and today I visited at 6:30am and they already had freshly baked goods on shelf! Parking is a challenge... I parked nearby metered parking and walked over. During daytime is maybe a challenge. My favorites are raisin snail and ham and cheese croissant. Kids like chocolate danish. They also have mochi donut which is good. On the side fridge they also have some sandwiches that "chef recommends heating up". And by the cashier they had various cakes. Definitely would like to try one day! read more

Those of you visiting Hawaii/Honolulu likely have heard of Leonard's but probably not about PB aka Paris Baguette. Thanks for yelp you're now reading this review. Those of you locals know what I'm talking about. It's definitely worth it. Aesthetically pleasing pastries that taste as good as they look. We've tried a few of them and all are good. Some of my fav - coffee bun and peanut (butter) bun. I'd like to highlight their Nutella pop tart croissant - that raspberry jelly topping is just the right amount and goes so well with the Nutella.The croissant is light and buttery. It just goes well together! Service is fast as well. This bakery has been our Saturday AM go to bakery. read more

This location is convenient if you're already downtown. Thankfully, it's walking distance from my office so I get my steps in and earn these treats LOL Excellent variety of different pastries. What's not to like about a flakey croissant, a buttery puff, or a fruity treat! I especially appreciate that they have several ready made cakes, easy to pick up and take to a party. They even have a handy set of cutting knife, candle, matches, and chocolate toppings for birthday wishes. My sister had the difficult task of picking one of seven delicious choices. Turned out to be a quick answer, CHOCOLATE!!! We are so similar:) This was absolutely delightful. Such a pretty sheen on the outside which perfectly "wrapped" the moist chocolate cake layers inside. The frosting was fluffy and not too sweet. The fruit toppings were fresh and colorful. We ALL loved it, not just the Birthday Girl. This establishment was clean and organized. The workers were friendly and helpful. The atmosphere was lively and inviting. Thank you Paris Baguette :) read more

I love that the cakes are not overly sweet. I've tried the roll cake, chocolate cake, strawberry shortcake, and rainbow cake. Every time I bring a Paris Baguette cake to a party everyone always asks me where it's from! They also include complimentary candles and a lighter for extra convenience. The macaroon cookies, crossiants, sandwiches, other pastries and even the drinks are delicious! Happy Eating! read more

This place was so cute and filled with such amazing pastries, cakes, and easy to grab to go sandwiches and salads. The variety was almost overwhelming. I had to grab a bunch of different things to bring home to share and try. It is super clean, easy to select and pick out your favorites. They have a tray area for you to prep a tray with parchment paper, and you put on a glove. The. You go around and load your tray. Walk it up to the register where they will box it all up for you, at that time you are able to order the drink of your choice. They had me wait outside for the drink to be prepared as there is not much room to wait inside. A staff member brought it and a straw out to me. They have a nice area for you to be able to enjoy your goodies outside with cover umbrella to keep you shaded. The pastries we got were a hit! Perfectly baked! We ate them all up in the next couple days. The Dubai chocolate tart and doughnuts were my daughter's fav. I love the fresh and flaky croissants . This is a must try if you are downtown or looking for some excellent desserts, pastries or sandwiches. The eggshells sandwich was so good! And well stuffed with the egg salad and slices of cucumber. read more

Such a cute bakery with so many treats for breakfast, lunch, or even a snack. I love their chocolate cream bread, which is rich, custardy, and not too sweet. It's also a great gift to bring to a meeting or party, I brought a couple of their fruit tarts to a get together and everyone loved them. They're just too pretty to eat! There's a bit of seating outside of the store so you can enjoy your pastries or drinks there. The only thing is that parking may be difficult to find. The employees are very kind and accommodating.

Rating is for the online ordering experience, rewards program, and the staff (although tries to be helpful doesn't come up with solutions). Otherwise their pastries are ok, doesn't meet the hype, long lines and overall value. My wife made an online order and assumed that this would count as a purchase so we can use as a free pastry on the app. I figured out on my own need to sign up first then make the purchase in the app. The staff had zero clue what happened and how to fix it. NOTE - they will take the cheapest pastry off for the free one. The cashier said it's "random" which is NOT true at all, misinformation. Adding insult to injury added a default tip to the bill when I was sure to click no tip. I'll dispute the charge. The pickup process wasn't smooth at all. The staff was confused about where to find the cake and took about 5 minutes of waiting. How about offering a free coffee while waiting? The fruit tart is not bad, not too sweet and the fruit is fresh. But for $5 is a little on the expensive side. Their croissant signature pastry is good not great. Price is more reasonable at $3.75 a little soggy (expected being more flaky) barely a hint of butter flavor. Strawberry cream cake is ok and expected more for $47. Nicely presented and good idea for birthday and special occasions. Not for regular eating unless you are raking in. It's not a big cake either. Looks like a few more kinks needs to be worked out before being a regular going to this place. I'll stick to Brug and Diamond Head Bakery. read more

Paris Baguette - Cake is not bad and excellent presentation - Bakeries Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Cute little place. Old Starbucks. Pro: Pastries were good. I got sweet potato flaky pastry, sweet potato bun, apple pie, chocolate cream pastry. Con: I told the cashier about the gnats that were inside the showcase (where the pastries were arranged). The cashier said they know about it. They try treating it but it always comes back so nothing they can do. She didnt even attempt to go to the area to check it out or anything. I was like.... Okay. If it was me that was working there, and a customer told me that, I would at least make an attempt to try and catch it or act like i'm doing something about it. Overall, it was okay experience but I don't think I will be going back there again for sanitary purposes. read more

I've been buying cakes from Paris Baguette and friends/family have been liking their cakes. I've bought an I Love You Mom, Strawberry Soft Cream Cake for Mother's Day. This cake was only around during Mother's Day. My mother and family enjoyed how soft the Cake was and not too sweet from the cream. I bought a Strawberry Soft Cream Cake for my friend's birthday. We enjoyed it. I like how their cakes are not dense and super sweet My friend's bought me a soufflé Cheesecake for my birthday and it is hands down my favorite cake from Paris Baguette. Its so soft and light. I shared slices with my family and they ate it up. The prices ranged to over $40 to almost $50. Its pretty high but worth it. Their service is great and I was told that they only make 1 of each cake per day. You can order online a head of time and do a pick-up. I recommend ordering a cake from Paris Baguette. read more

Stopped by on my way to the bank and couldn't resist trying this cute snowman cream donut. It was MASSIVE! I enjoyed that the donut wasn't super sweet. It has just the right amount of sweetness so I was able to eat the entire donut at one time. The donut was flaky and not too oily. The cream inside was perfect and they put in a lot of it! Didn't skimp on the cream at all! The chocolate on top was perfect and wasn't too sweet either. I enjoyed the sugar carrot nose as well. Great dessert for the holidays! read more

To start there's a "how to" poster and I actually don't mind it at all. It asks to sanitize then wear a glove and put a parchment on your tray. Not asking much! I tried the iced pistachio latte (I think it's seasonal) and oooh it was so good! Not too sweet and a nice subtle pistachio flavor. So far I only tried the strawberry filled pistachio bun pastry but it was super fresh and light and not overly sweet at all. I better check I don't know if it was a doughnut split and filled??!! Whatever, I loved it! If the other pastries are this good then it's worth it! The employees were all nice and efficient. There's lots of clean outdoor tables with umbrellas so you can enjoy your goods al fresco! Additionally they have a nice variety of sandwiches too that I gotta try next time i go downtown!
