Located in the Gare du Nord train station, so it's pretty crowded with people grabbing food before their train. The line moves pretty quickly though. There was a credit card line and a cash line, which was nice. I got a pain au chocolat for 2.6 euros which is definitely expensive for Paris. Typically they're about 1.6 euro. It is a train station so it makes sense it was pricier. It was not a bad pain au chocolat, but wasn't as fresh or flaky to me. Good for a quick last minute bite before the train read more

Excellent selection of baked goods. Busy at 9:00am in the morning with a lineup. The pretzels are excellent quality. The coffee is nice and mild. read more

I may have expected so much for a bakery in France, so sorry for the review. But I think I baked better pastry compared to what I ordered here. I heard they have locations in other countries too, but I'll pass next time. One pastry was a little hard and can't find the fold I expected, filling was too sweet on one too. read more

Located inside of the station. We opted to grab something to eat before our train ride back to London. Long line but moved fairly quickly. We ended up getting some croissants and sandwich. Croissants tasted good but the sandwich was ok. read more

I really liked this Paul when you're waiting for the Eurostar. The apple tart was so good. The hot chocolate was really strong and chocolaty. It wasn't watered down. You can grab your snacks and sit by the window to see the trains. They're really busy because there aren't too many options in the Eurostar station part of Gare Du Nord, but they're really fast, so you don't wait a long time. read more

Second location that I've been to (first was close to the louvre) and I got a pain au chocolat, a savoureaux sandwich and a chocolate hazelnut muffin. Sandwich was tasty with salami, cornichons and butter. The bread was a little tough but tasty. Pain au chocolat was not as good as the fresh one I had at their other location but still better than Starbucks and the muffin was alright. I think I was disappointed because it said Nutella and I was expecting Nutella and didn't get any. Either I didn't read right or they were trying to imitate Nutella with the chocolate and hazelnuts. read more

Extremely ignorant staff, customer service is non existant. You would think that as majority of people are going to UK they would have some smattering of English. First time I have ever been charged for a dash of milk with americano coffee. Male staff member on till should be sacked! He was very rude and ignorant and not just with me. read more

weaker than eric kayser, sandwiches not as good. need a better combo for poulard. beignet ok

Only three stars given because of attitude from this one lady during our visit there as tourists who wanted to go there for lunch. The food was great and the eclairs were amazing...but when we asked for water this one lady reacted with a shocked face as if we offended her. She decided to stay passive-aggressive for the rest of our visit at the restaurant. Spoke little to us because maybe she could not really speak English which is fine but just had a look of passive aggressiveness we had to interact with her. Four stars because they had enjoyable food and atmosphere. Minus one because there are other places with the same quality of food and better staff attitudes. read more

Pre-COVID review: Pastries and baked goods are a little pricey here, but what do you expect when you're in a train station? We were boarding soon for the Eurostar and didn't have time to properly stop at a bolangerie before getting to Gard du Nord. We got a canale, mini beignet nature, and 2 croissants for a total of €5.45. read more

Decided to stop before a train and are glad we did! The employees were all very friendly and didn't rush you to make a decision which added to the charm of the stand. They had a wide selection of pastries and coffee options; we got the chocolate croissant and a vanilla latte both of which were delicious. Would recommend! read more

Why 5 stars? Because we badly need this in America. --- --- --- We saw Paul locations all over London but never got a chance to pop in to one, so when we noticed a Paul kiosk at a train station, we wanted to take advantage of it. I ordered a quiche, not because it's a go-to breakfast item for me, but for a totally random reason. Because my dad is weird with words, he has used "quiche" to describe someone who is being a wuss about something. It's been like that for my entire life, so "quiche" has a completely different meaning to me than any other person on Earth outside of my immediate family. But funny enough, I'm not sure if I'd actually ever had a quiche before, so this seemed like a good time to start. It turns out, a good quiche is delicious! It will no longer be associated in my mind with my dad's weird word-swapping. My wife ordered a breakfast sandwich and it was wonderful. It was on a baguette, but the bread was so much softer than other baguette's we had in Paris, and had a great flavor too. Paul is another regional chain that could definitely make a killing in America - I hope it happens one day! read more

ma nourriture était servie froide et quand j'ai demandé qu'elle soit chauffée, l'employé m'a dit non. ensuite, je l'ai regardé réchauffer la nourriture du client suivant. Je ne sais pas quel était le problème. read more

Quick service, good food, and so many options. I've been to a few locations and all in all, they are solid

This was conveniently located inside the Gare du Nord train station while we were waiting to catch the train from Paris to London. I didn't try any of the pastries which did look amazing. I ordered a coffee which was comparably priced like anywhere else. I asked for cream and was told that coffee with cream is an extra euro. That's crazy that a little cream would cost $1USD and change. Perhaps that's a French thing. Anyways, the lady working the counter was nice enough to give me the cream for free. read more

Great for lunch brunch or breakfast before grabbing a train. I had a delicious chicken sandwich, coffee and macaron. Nothing spectacular about it, but it satisfied me and was a fair price. Highly recommend that chicken sandwich and stopping here if you're in the station. read more

This Paul was at the Gare du Nord station next to my hostel and it happened to be where I had to go everyday to catch my rides. Daily Croissant and espresso really made my day. I didn't really have anything else, but I really enjoyed it. ENJOY! read more

Stopped in for breakfast before departing Gare du Nord. The fresh juice is delicious and a perfect start to the day. The latte and croissant were not the best I had in town, but they were still good. I would go back to this place. read more

The macarons here and the croissants are simply amazing! Words can't describe! I loved them. I brought a lot of their goodies home (Texas) with me because they were so good! They have several locations, but the one I tried was at Gare de Nord. I think I also tried the one at the London train station (St. Pancras.). I loved this place, I will definitely return. read more

Paul, a bakery chain all over Paris. But this Paul particularly has super nice service!! Paul is everywhere (almost like Tims all over Canada) but Paul has delicious, freshly baked AND DELICIOUS pastries for 1-2€. This Paul doesn't have a lot of the cake/sweeter pastries, but they do have muffins, croissants, and my favourite 2€ giant palmier. The staff here are extremely friendly, probably because they service a lot of foreigners passing this station. They speak great English and have cute personalities. I hope you'll encounter the nice staff on your visit!! read more

Just got coffee and pastries here before leaving to catch the Eurostar. Coffee was good and pastries a little cold but ok. I also got a hotdog with baguette and it was really good. I would give it a four start but minus one star because the lady at the counter was rude, keep sighing and making it obvious of her impatience. read more

Staff is generally very accommodating of ignorant Americans like myself, who speak very poor French. Good pain au chocolate and cremé café, but beware of the beggars who are EVERYWHERE and quite aggressive. read more

Terrible service from disengaged employees. Employee refused to heat up my sandwhich claiming their was a microwave elsewhere in the station - after heating up someone else's sandwhich before me. I have no idea why I was refused. I feel slighted. read more

Solidly bad service. Avoid this branch if you can. Especially for those non French speaker. Or non French citizen. This evening, the staff can obviously speak English but refuse to. And she kept yelling at me. There was obviously 6 people in front of me and how could I make it to the payment spot? Use your brain. And keep yelling at me in French will totally help right? This is a train station, excuse me. If you do not want to serve anyone that doesn't speak your language or look like you. Then why don't you hire staff that will do? I do not tolerate this kind of behavior in customer service and left without completing my order. It is how bad it is. I haven't experienced any thing close to that in the recent decade. It is stunningly bad. Just go straight down further and you will find a great costa there. And bon appetite. read more
