    Peppermint and Dubai mochi donut
    Mailynn V.

    This pastry shop is my favorite chain in houston. They have so many options of things. I feel like if you don't like one thing you will find something you do like. My favorites: * Chocolate Croissant shell with chocolate melted on top and chocolate filling inside.. buttery shell just falls apart and melts in your mouth. * Dubai Chocolate Mochi Donut is good. It's light and airy with that signature mochi chew. I really hope they keep this on the menu. The service is nice you grab a plate put the pastries you want on there and check out.

    Picked a strawberry croissant, biscoff croffin, and tiramisu donut. besides the high prices, some pastries are completely worth the money! The chain company provides creative tasty baked goods you can't find elsewhere. Yet I don't really recommend the strawberry cream croissant nor the pistachio cream croissant, both creams taste like essence. everything else is likeable. The pastries are self served and taken up the register for check out. Plenty of seating is offered so you may sit and enjoy your treat, even a few seats outside.

    The pineapple brûlée pastry was sooo good. There were sugar crystals on the crust, and the cream in the middle was so light and delicious. The pineapples were also super fresh. The mango cream bun was a lot lighter and less sweet in flavor after the pineapple brûlée, but it was still really yummy. I really liked I liked how large this Paris baguette location was. The tiles floor is really quirky, and they have a cool mural or like wallpaper on one of the walls that shows Houston's different locations like NASA or Rice University. There were also a lot of tables available, and service was really fast.

    Dubai chocolate mochi donut
    Darian C.

    Their pastries are cute and taste good! I think they are a bit pricey though. You grab a tray and grab pastries from the stand then checkout at the counter. I got the dubai chocolate mochi donut and enjoyed it, I thought the pistachio could be a little bit stronger but the mochi donut had a good texture. The workers are nice and the inside is cute with lots of seating and natural lighting.

    Paris Baguette is a chain. But I think highly of their quality. A Biscoff cream filled croissant-muffin was just excellent. Historically, my default was the coconut custard filled croissant. I like the softness of their baked goods. They are not dried out or stale tasting. For me, it is one of the five closest options for the types of pastries that one might find just about anywhere in Spain. It is interesting for me that, historically, the pastries of a typical Mexican panaderia, even with their roots in Spanish culture are very dry and need to be dunked into hot coffee or chocolate (conchas and other breakfast pastries). The good news is that with the latest crop of young graduates from Mexican culinary schools, the pastries are getting better and better. I don't like the pricing of their products but I hope the prices reflect their use of better ingredients. (I hope).

    I always come here for some pastries and an ice latte but today I decided to order a seasonal drink. I ordered the lavender matcha ice latte and it was AMAZING. I loved it! I cannot stop thinking about it. I love this specific location because there are a lot more pastries to choose from and there's more seating. I will forever keep coming back here.

    Paris Baguette a solid stable bakery choice, always. Love the pastries here and always consistent, fresh, and not too sweet. Service is quick and friendly - you get a tray and pick all your goodies and then you proceed with the cashier to check out (goodies we got as pictured in tray) Ambiance is very cute and has a Paris theme of course!

    Stacked up tacky pastries
    Eugene C.

    I asked how many pastries could fit in one box and was told "all these plus more." Based on that, I ordered several items. Instead, everything was stacked on top of each other and looked messy. When I questioned it, I was told I could stack even more. If I had been told upfront that the pastries would be piled like this, I would have ordered fewer or asked for another box. Poor communication and unprofessional presentation. Disappointing experience.

    Traffic on this part of Westheimer is not too stressful to drive. The parking lot is never crowded so it's always easy to find a good parking spot. In short, this is the best location that I prefer to frequent. Price-wise, they are less affordable than the pastry/bakery from their Taiwanese shop and Chinese grocery competitors.

    I went to Paris Baguette for the first time, and oh my goodness it's such a charming little café! There's plenty of cute decor and bright lighting, making it an inviting space. It reminds me of 85 Degrees but with a French twist. You grab a tray, pick out your pastries, and check out at the register. There's a decent amount of seating available, and I could see myself coming back here to study. The options for pastries are ENDLESS. The pictures don't even do it justice. There are so many to choose from that it was hard to choose just one. I ended up getting an almond pastry, which had filling that I wasn't expecting. I usually don't go for filled pastries, but I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed it. I wish I remembered the name and took a picture of it! I also ordered an iced vanilla latte, which tasted as expected. There's plenty of lot parking available. I will most definitely be coming again to try more of their pastries! I'd even consider ordering one of their cakes for a future celebration.

    I am new to Houston and love to explore, I set out on a Saturday to got to the businesses in the WOW shopping area. I had seen this bakery on Instagram and really wanted to try it as it looked so good. Well they did not disappoint the ambiance is good and the staff are extremely attentive. You walk in grab a tray pick the pasrties you want go to counter and pay. I loved the pastries they were light and flaky with amazing flavor. I would recommend the fruit tarts they were superb. I will definitely make any one of their locations a frequent stop for me.

    Not impressed. It's a shame because this location is on the newer side so it looks big, clean, and promising. I went to pick up the birthday cake I've ordered and it took way longer than it should have. Girl at the register asked me so many questions before heading towards the back for god knows how long. As I was standing by the counter, another employee was happily chatting away and boxing up a cake for a different customer. I noticed she even offered to give him candles and a paperbag to put everything in. (As she should have-- but we'll get into it later). When she was done with him, she looked over to me and asked me if I've been helped because the original girl was still MIA. I saw a little ad thing they were selling the Dubai Chocolate Latte so I got intrigued. I figured while I was still waiting I'll go ahead and order 2 of those lattes. But to my surprise, after I've paid that girl went off and started roaming around towards the pastries... so much for making use of my time. The original girl that went to get my cake finally came back and proceeds to ask me more verification questions for this darn cake. I told her I had ordered two drinks while she was gone. She took again forever to put the cake in its box and taped it. Afterwards she just slid the box over trying to hand it to me like that. Hello? Where is the candles and bag? I held off on saying anything, figured I'll wait for my drink to he be finished. She took a long time to get my drink done and this is where I'm really getting antsy. She comes back with only one drink...I told her I had orderd two. Turns out her co-worker only rang me up for one. Tell me why one drink is almost $9. So she rang me up a second time and of course more waiting. What's crazy to me is that the line was forming and her co-worker is on the side and just playing on her phone...I know for a fact she saw the line because each time the door opens and people would walk in, she'd look up to greet and welcome in the customers. The girl finally finished my forgotten drink. I told her she didn't give me any candles for the birthday cake yet. She answers "we don't give them out, we have it for sale." Getting a little more irritated by the minute...I let her know I saw her co-worker handling the candles to the previous customer even directed her to the cabinet behind her. She walks into the back and gave me candles (unwrapped not in their usual sleeve) and slides it underneath the handle of the cake box. Without tape. I don't know what she was thinking...like the candles will slide right off once the box is picked up. I think she just expected me to walk off with my lattes and cake while having to balance the loose candles on top. To save her time and my own time, I had to tell her to please just put everything in a paper bag. Oh. The best part, the drink tasted nothing like Dubai chocolate. Money and time wasted altogether.

I also heard great things about the mango mochi so we couldn't leave without those. Thankfully they still had some in stock. I heard they sell out quickly especially on weekends.

My husband also got 2 savory pastries (I forgot what they were called and I forgot to take a picture) and those were yummy too. Perfectly flakey crust just like the egg tarts. We wanted to get sesame balls but they were sold out. Customer service was great. The guy that took our order was very nice. It was pretty busy but he moved through the line quickly. There's some seating inside if you want to eat there. Prices are very reasonable at $2 each for the mochi and egg tarts. The savory pastries were $3. It's located in a shared lot/area. Parking can be tight and limited on a busy weekend day but they have parking right out front for the Eck bakery customers. Also note that if you pay with card it's a 2.5% charge so cash is better if you have it. We didn't but we know now for future. We had a great experience here and will definitely be back. Next time we'll come earlier and get a bigger order and try their other offerings.

Beware parking here at busier times - when I visited on a Saturday at 1:30pm it was mayhem. On entering, I saw an array of desserts and savory items. I decided to also pick up a savory kolache-type pastry (I never got the name of it) and the cake! The employee was quick and helpful - she located the cake, showed me the design and lettering to make sure it was ok before I left. The cake was a huge hit! We loved the light sponge cake with layers of whipped cream which were light and not too sweet. Then layer of cherries was lovely. The fruits on top were fresh and nicely arranged. The appearance was gorgeous as well, with chocolate shavings delicately arranged on the outside. We were not too impressed by the kolache. I was also able to try their pandan cake slice on another visit and loved the flavoring, lightness of the cake and the icing was very tasty.

Just from the smell walking in I could tell I was gonna love this place. They have upbeat music playing and the lady was so nice. She answered questions and made suggestions. The price was not bad either. I got 4 cookies and 1 cupcake and my total was $31. These aren't little cookies either. They are big and you get them warm! She didn't have to warm them up she just handed them to us warm! They were the perfect amount of crunchy on the edge and gooey on the inside. All of them were amazing! The cupcake was for my mom and she said it was amazing too. I live on the other side of town but will be making a trip back whenever I need a fix!

There were lots of options to try from. I went for the s'mores brownie. They warmed it up for me and it was just ok. Then it was time to try the Oreo cheesecake. Also, underwhelming. The cheesecake was bland, no real flavor to it. With so many options in houston, I'd try another place.

    Artisana is a bakery specializing in sourdough bread and French patisseries…read more Their shop is quaint and small with very limited seating. However, there is plenty of parking. They have a select variety of pastries. We got their butter croissant, blueberry cream cheese danish, and spinach pastry. The croissant was one of the best I had in Houston! It is subtle, buttery, and flaky and does not go stale from staying out all day. I think these Houston croissants are the most similar to the ones I had in France! The blueberry cream cheese danish had a healthy and generous amount of blueberries. It was flaky, and the cream cheese flavor was not overwhelming or artificial. The spinach pastry was also flaky like the others and had a good spinach and cream flavor. I also had a bite of my friend's cinnamon kouign-amann, but it was not as good as the others and was a bit on the drier side. All the pastries I got were well balanced with subtle flavors and had golden, crispy flakes. I really enjoyed them, and although I have been here a handful of times, it's definitely a Houston croissant staple, which I will be visiting more often!

    Artisana is my go-to for fresh bread; it's the best I've found in the city, especially the classic…read moresourdoughs. The scones and pastries are more hit-or-miss, sometimes fantastic and sometimes slightly overcooked and dry. This is a place to buy great bread. If you're there and the croissants and pastries look good, go for it--but there are better destinations if that's your draw. Zero atmosphere and not a place to hang out.

    Honestly, I try not to indulge in sweet desserts for health reasons, but whilst visiting family, my…read moremother couldn't stop raving about this place and how she so enjoyed their desserts so much that she goes back over and over again to buy by the dozens to gift to all her friends..... especially their chocolate panache tarts.... but unfortunately, the day we went to try, they were all sold out by lunch time. So, what we decided to do was to place an order for the chocolate ganache tarts a couple of days later, but while we were here, we'd try their Amandine tart, Sachertorte, and an Eclaire. Wow, I just had a bite of each and....daaaang, they were so so soooo good! So satisfying, so decadent, so next level deliciousness! ... perhaps a little sweet, but not overly so... thoroughly enjoyed just the taste of each. A couple of days later when we finally got to try their chocolate ganache tarts... wow... again! So obviously freshly baked, such wonderful density, flavor, and bite... with a butter cookie textured shell..... absolute heaven, and so difficult to just limit oneself to just one bite, but I managed. I'm sure we'll be back here again during our next visit.

The bakery itself is simple and clean. Be respectful of the place and help clean up after yourself. Not one customer made a mess there. Everyone are respectful to the sweet owner. The drinks itself are simple, reasonably priced on the cheaper side. Not sweet at all so ask if you want it to be sweeten. Quality and perfect desserts. Just semi-sweet so if you have a crazy sweet tooth, this is not your bakery. Again, prices are extremely reasonable and I see lots of locals who enjoy coming here. Prices are actually on the lower side of what I see throughout Houston. Passionfruit tart was my favorite, if you need someone to tell you what to try.
