    Stop by because I was looking for a coffee shop and I'm glad I did because it was a pretty nice place. I wish I had ordered the pizza but I got a croissant with bacon ham and cheese although it wasn't that great didn't have much flavor but the pizzas look delicious and their iced latte coffee is really good.

    I tried Paulette Cafe hoping to have a new breakfast place other than the regular restaurants. Their food was really good but the service was worse than what you get in France. I ordered the Paulette Breakfast and Lemon Tart, both were good but I won't be back because of the lack of service. They never came back to check on my order, I had to go up and ask for the Lemon Tart. I had coffee and a tea, both of which I never got offered a refill...

    Entrance, they always greet us with a smile.

    This is the best french café in the area. I have tried almost all of the french cafés in The Woodlands, Conroe, and Spring. This place is always delicious and always has the most attentive and friendly people working here. We are always greeted with a smile. The Tartufo pizza had a splash of Truffle oil and that little bit enhanced all the other flavors. I love the decor, and having some baked goods is a plus. It is always full so call for a reservation to avoid waiting times.

    One of the best cafés in Conroe, hands down. The coffee was well-balanced and not overly sweet, and the breakfast plate had the perfect mix of savory and sweet flavors. My friends and I had a great time chatting with the staff and owner, they were incredibly welcoming and genuinely kind. Great people serving great food. I'll definitely be back.

    Stumbled upon this place and wow was I amazed. The crêpes and quiche were so delicious. The portions are very generous. The service and ambience are also quite amazing. Service was fast and friendly.

    Bacon, egg, and cheese croissant which is served with a little salad and sauce.

    I have eaten here many times over the past few years, and the food and service never disappoints. The menu selections have something for everyone from quiche to pizza the French way. You can choose to purchase a coffee and pastry to go or enjoy a sit down meal. I have done both. The coffee options are good and the French roast coffee is smooth enough to drink it black. The pastry selections change and they regularly have croissants, both plain and with chocolate. My dine-in experiences include crepes, both savory and sweet, and every breakfast dish on the menu. Their quality is consistently good and is similar to my personal experiences in France. The ambience is clean, modern, and delightful. I highly recommend this place to others. Bon appetit!

    Walked into Paulette's on a weekend morning--got greeted right away. They told us it'd be about 10-15 minutes for a table, which was fine, but then the owner saw us, stepped in, and just made it happen. Pulled two tables together, sat us down without fuss. That kind of thing goes a long way. We ordered the Tartufo Pizza--fire. Topped with burrata, and I didn't leave a trace. Also got Paulette's Breakfast, which came with a little spread of items: a fresh baguette with butter and jam, a pancake crème brûlée (yeah, that exists), and a croissant with cream. Nothing over the top, but everything was done well. Good ingredients. That's all it takes. Margherita Pizza was solid too. We sat close to where they make the pizzas and got to see both of ours go into the oven--nice touch. Service was smooth the whole time. A few different staff members checked on us, and the owner came around more than once to make sure everything was good. You can tell they actually pay attention. Place is small, no surprise it gets busy, but they make it work. Feels a little like a café you'd find tucked away in Paris, but without trying too hard. Just doing their thing. Definitely worth checking out. I'd go back.

    Why 5 stars? Because this place is just all-around awesome. --- --- --- I have had Paulette Cafe on my to-visit list for as long as I can remember, but finally had the opportunity to stop in recently. I'm so mad it took me so long. In an effort to not bury the ledes, the Prosciutto Pizza was one of the best pizzas I've had in all of the greater Houston area. I will think about it for quite some time, and those thoughts will probably end up with me making a return visit in the very near future. What's crazy is that, despite my highest level of praise of that pizza, it wasn't even my favorite thing that we ate! The Croque Monsieur was perfect. I am so lucky that my wife only ate about 25% of this because it was pure crack to me. We also ordered some french onion soup and some beignets, which were just okay, but we were able to to end on a strong note. There was some kind of peach concoction dessert crepe and we absolutely loved it. Throughout the whole experience here, we just felt like everything was made with quality ingredients. It definitely reminded us a lot of eating in Europe. We will definitely be back!

    Came here Saturday morning for an early lunch. It's such a cute little spot, and I was intrigued by their desserts, breakfast, and pizza. My husband wanted breakfast, but I decided to try their pizza as I cannot pass up a good pizza. The crust was just the right balance of crispy on the outside, soft on the inside. The pizza itself was delicious and big enough to split (I got the smallest one). I did get a bite of one of my husbands pancakes, and I can't wait to come back and have those as well. Their pastry display on the way out also looked incredible. Our service was fast and friendly, and even though it was a busy day we did not have issues getting parking outside on the street. We will definitely be back!

    One of my favorite places when I'm in the area! Simple dishes.. delicious beignets: raspberry & plain. Ask for a side of chocolate dip. Light and fluffy and addicting!

    Riviera salad & strawberry matcha!
    Kirstin T.

    When you walk in, you see this adorable café. Everything was neat, and it smells of pastries (which I loved)! Michael and Zac(h/k) were wonderful. I got the Riviera salad and their strawberry matcha. Though they were busy with their lunch rush, they were very attentive! Michael is a sweetheart; he pulled my chair out for me and, even though it didn't bother me one bit, he gave me dessert on the house for my bread coming out a little late. What an amazing family-owned restaurant. You don't see many like these anymore, I will definitely be coming back. Thank you again!

    Can't rave about this place more. The staff is open and outgoing. The coffee is on point. And the pâtisserie is devine.

    What a gem in Downtown Conroe. Quaint French themed with outstanding food. French country breakfast and Crepes with bananas and strawberries. One to add to your list if you haven't been.

    [EDIT only to correct to "Postino"]…read more I use the one-stars sparingly, I really do. This has nothing to do with the food, as we never got that far in the course of my miserable experience at this location (not sure if it's a chain or not). Walked into a relatively quiet restaurant somewhat later in the evening after strolling a bit in the summer Houston heat around the Woodlands. A couple of people recommended Postino. The issue arose when I asked for a possible menu modification. Specifically, I was trying to avoid GOAT CHEESE on the meatball dish I had my eyes on (which otherwise looked pretty tempting). The server indicated that they probably couldn't do it but I nevertheless requested this... a couple of minutes later the server returned with the bad news. Apparently, it simply had to be served as-is, according to the menu. This in itself wouldn't have got me to the point of writing this review. However, I, incredulous, was kind of laughing (you have to laugh) and said something like "so I can only order exactly what's on the menu, and the kitchen can't do anything different?" (slight paraphrasing, perhaps). There wasn't much further conversation with the server but within about 30 seconds of this exchange, a "manager" stormed over to the table and borderline-abusively shouted "is there a problem?!". This "mini-manager" as I will refer to her, proceeded to inform me that they could NOT accommodate changes because it would "violate the integrity of the restaurant" ... I of course I also found a bit humorous, and in this state inquired further about what sense it made to be so obnoxiously strict for someone just trying to grab a quick bite about 30 minutes before closing. I'm sensitive to the work involved in running restaurants and serving obnoxious customers, but I was NOT rude, obnoxious, or difficult. Just blown away by this treatment. I was then informed by the mini-manager that she was from LONDON which I assume meant I should accept that her cosmopolitan background and (I assume vast and high-level culinary experience) meant that I should shut my trap and stop being so picky. At this point I was compelled to mention that I, too, grew up overseas and was very surprised at this complete lack of flexibility. Within another 30 seconds or so of this dialogue, the mini-manager tipped the menu over on the table and abruptly shouted, "you know what, I'm refusing you service!" That made it all easy from there as we promptly (while laughing, partly out of shock) exited the facility. Huge disappointment and embarrassing in my view for a restaurant that seems otherwise to have maintained a great reputation - and especially so for the fact that service (and people in general) in Houston tend to be kind and accommodating, not typically RUDE or reactionary. I'm encouraging this restaurant to have a look at the service model. I can't say I'll try Postino again the next time I'm in Houston, but I certainly hope it continues to truly earn its 4.5 star rating, 'cause they sure did NOT when I was there this weekend.

We entered to a friendly staff who sat us immediately. The vibe is very modern with some Mexican influence. We were with another couple and I think they were under the impression that this would be Tex-Mex, but it is not. For drinks I got a Mezcalina, my wife got a normal margarita normally I don't love Mezcal, but was feeling adventurous and this drink did not disappoint, it exploded with flavor and was my favorite drink I have had here. The bar program might be the best of any restaurant in the area, as it should be since they have a speakeasy as well.

For starters, we got the TOSTADA CHUTORO, which was a tostada with raw fish and caviar. There were two, and although smaller bites to share, the flavor once again really shined through.

My friend ordered Tacos de Filete, which she said were, "okay." We also had a few drinks... They were heavy pours. My only complaint is that the tajin-salt rims were more for decoration (smeared across the side of the glass and not very hygienic) rather than for the palette. Worth mentioning: We were never offered any chips or salsa, although I've read reviews where other patrons enjoyed some before their meal. Our server was friendly, but a bit disconnected.... Maybe that was the biggest problem - - the experience was diminished due to lackluster service.
