This place is amazing. The food is great. There is a line down the block at open and they work as fast as they can through it. It's a small place to go. read more

Paris baguette is way better, don't waste your time. Plus the only entrance door being the one with the roped line is HILARIOUS; like it's some sort of concert venue. Plus the complex needs better trash cans. Macaroons sucked read more

This place is amazing!!! We need a location closer to Denver! Clearly lots of people are making the journey down to Parker, because I was here on a weekday, and there was still a line out the door! Staff were super friendly and efficient though- getting everyone what they needed quickly and were eager to explain what things were if you had questions. I got a mixture of patisserie & bakery confections, and everything was amazing! Made fresh, full of flavor, light, flaky, and unique. Definitely add this to your bakery rotation! But come on- we really need one up north! read more

Definitely lived up the hype! You're going to have to wait in line but it moves quickly. The savory baked goods were not as impressive as the sweet baked goods. The employees seemed like they hated their life except the pleasant young man on the register who gave great recommendations for when we return. The others couldn't even smile. Seating inside and an amazing tile floor. Very clean! read more

Probably some of the best pastries in Colorado The line is long, come early especially if you want to not stress about them running out of options Pricier but it seems like they make everything fresh the same day. They don't serve what they have on the menu above, only what they have out every day which is good. read more

We stopped by for their HUGE macarons, and they were absolutely delicious! They're the perfect sweet treat to share with family or friends (or keep all to yourself!). The flavors were great, and the size definitely makes them stand out. The service was amazing, and the shop itself is so cute and welcoming. Definitely worth stopping in if you're craving something sweet! read more

Poulette Bakeshop - Bakeries Near Me - Parker, Colorado

We were recommended this bakery by several people while visiting Parker. We were told the line starts early and is pretty long. We decided to drive by since it was near our hotel and if there line was too long we'd just try what the coffee shop had next door. The line wasn't too long when we got there. We found parking across the street and got in line. I feel like the line moved fairly fast, the staff worked very efficiently at keeping things moving. They were also very nice. I got 3 pastries and it came close to $30. They were all really good! I would definitely stop by if I'm ever back in the area. read more

Unfortunately the rumors are true and this place is worth the hype. I wish it wasn't so far from Denver because I would probably be a regular. The ham and cheese croissant is unparalleled. I thought i knew the best bakeries in Denver but I'll be dreaming of this until next time. The croissant loaf is super flaky and soft and moist. Decadent for sure but delicious. The sweet pasties are not overly sweet, and actually very mild. The line can get long but they try and move you along quickly so it does move. They're very efficient. And overall, it's worth the 35 min drive from Denver. read more

Poulette Bakeshop - Bakeries Near Me - Parker, Colorado

I first went to Poulette a few years ago and apparently never stopped thinking about it because I finally made it back this weekend. Showed up around 9:30 on a Saturday and waited maybe 20 minutes which honestly wasn't bad at all considering how popular this place has become. I was also shocked they still had almost everything available by the time I got inside. I'm not going to pretend I know the names of every pastry I grabbed, but every single thing was excellent. The first thing you notice is the lamination. You can immediately tell these people know what they're doing. Beautiful layers, super buttery, crisp without becoming dry or messy. Just really well made pastries. Flavor wise everything felt balanced too. Rich but not heavy. Sweet without feeling overwhelming. You can absolutely understand why this place keeps getting national attention. Definitely worth making the drive to Parker for. read more

Overall, it's a middle of the road bakery. I wasn't impressed despite its reputation and awards. I judge bakeries by their plain butter croissant so that I can do a 1:1 comparison. It was lacking in flavor depth and texture was not airy enough; not even top 10-15 I have ever had. The best plain croissant I've tried in Denver is at Reunion Bakery, which is pretty much perfect and exemplifies what I had in Paris. They do have more unique flavors and offerings, but again, none of them blew me away and were actually quite underwhelming. Spinach artichoke croissant and chorizo strada were bland and lacking salt. Cinna-roll and almond croissant were probably the best ones but still nothing to write home about. I found it hard to eat more than 3 bites of anything I got because I did not feel any enjoyment from it and my taste buds were not sufficiently tingled lmao. Maybe I have higher pastry standards coming from San Francisco where there are just so many amazing options, but I think Poulette is a fine neighborhood bakery although not a place anyone should go out of their way for or wait more than 5 minutes for. I went on a Saturday morning at 9am when the wait was around 20-30 minutes. Staff were helpful and nice. Street parking was easy to find. There is limited seating indoors and outdoors. read more

Poulette is hands down my favorite bakery in all of Colorado. I almost always have to stand in line but never regret it. The textures and airiness of their pastries are some of the best I've ever had the pleasure to indulge in. I love their choux! Their croissants that are topped with fruit are so fresh and well picked. I crave Poulette more often than I'd care to admit. Haha. read more

Came here on July 3rd around 11:45 and it was a long line out the door. I'd say it was a 30 minute wait which wasn't terribly bad. Order the chocolate croissant tasted very authentic and homemade, but wasn't anything special. I'd say a little overrated. The restaurant itself was very inviting warm and a cute little bakery shop. The staff was very friendly and helped out customers as well. read more

Incredible french-style bakery with some of the best pastries in Denver. The lines here on Saturday morning are always 60-90 minutes long by the time they open, so plan ahead. When you get inside, you are warmly greeted and not rushed at all. And the staff is more than willing to take their time to answer any questions you might have, like "what's inside of that?" And they won't make you feel bad when the answer is on the name of the item! All items for sale are out in beautifully presented displays, so it can be as simple as point and order. We got a huge variety of pastries. All perfectly flaky. The fruit components (fresh, cream, jellies) were perfectly balanced. Nothing too sweet, too tart, or too shy. The savory pastries were home runs too, with high-quality meats and ingredients. You can also order ahead, but they only come in packages and those sell out quickly too. read more

Have wanted to try for awhile but the lines have always been horrible. Stopped by in the afternoon and there was only one person in line. Several beautiful items to select from. They were very helpful in telling us about the flavors and ingredients in the items. Selected 3 items... $24. Overall, a nice experience but not my go-to for a bakery. read more

I was happy to hear they had a bigger place. Unfortunately, even on a late Friday morning, there was a short line out the door. The staff is fantastic. They are friendly, always smiling. They tell you almost immediately what is in a pastry that you are ordering. The desserts did not disappoint. Although this time, I only ordered a few, cutting them in half to share. They are very rich. I know I can ask, but with a line behind you, one tends to forget or does not want to keep the others waiting....but a short blurb on the receipt on how the item should be kept / served would be fantastic. If you have not had an opportunity to stop in, do it. You will see why it is ranked one of the best bakeries in the United States. read more

Came here on a Thursday morning to grab some pastries with a friend who happens to be from Paris. The place is very small and quaint-- roughly 6 chairs to sit inside. The place is small but lots of variety and authentic French bites. We got a collection of pastries to share-- all good. Will be back. read more

As expected, this place was a treat, the pastries are a work of art. I wish they had less fruity flavors and more vanilla, chocolate, caramel type pastries, but different stroke for different folks. The line is long but they rip through it, didn't have to wait too long. They just moved to a new location and thank god they did, we went to their old location and it deserves a spot like where they are now, their old spot was in a strip mall. read more

After hearing great things about this bakeshop I had to come check it out myself and I will admit, this lives up to the hype!! Everything tasted incredibly fresh and well-made. The canelé was my FAVORITE!! It's perfectly caramelized on the outside, soft and custardy inside. I also tried the lemon stuffy croissant, and it was super flavorful with just the right amount of citrusy and very creamy. Everyone was so pleasant to interact with, kind and welcoming. They also gave out good recommendations because I'm enjoying these pastries a LOT. Would definitely come again!! read more

Poulette has a new location in Parker on Mainstreet. I went on Thursday at 8:30am and was surprised to see no line. There were people inside ordering, but the larger space could accommodate many more customers at once. Plenty of tables inside and out for people to stay and enjoy their treats instead of getting crumbs in the car if you can't wait until getting home. The flakiness of those delicious pastries. IYKYK. read more

We braved the long line and were not disappointed! The chocolate croissant was fantastic. I thought that the cheese brioche wasn't quite as good as it looked though. I was a bit disappointed that they were out of almond croissants, but it makes sense on a weekend morning with how much business they get. Once we had our items, we were able to sit down at a table inside and the atmosphere was pleasant. I have to say, I'm glad I tried this place but I don't think I would wait in the long line to get pastries from here again. There are just too many other good pastry places without the long wait! read more

Poulette. A name I've heard for a very long time living here in Colorado but never stopped by because it's pretty far down south and I'm not the biggest sweets guy. Well, the pastries and sweets here may have changed my mind and I'm glad I found myself down south for an appointment and remembered about Poulette. The woman behind me said it best when we asked what she recommends and replied "it would be quicker for me to tell you what isn't good here". She was right. Everything we got here was really good and clearly expertly made. The best part? Nothing was overly sweet. We visited around 9AM on a Wednesday and there was plenty of selection at the time with not much of a line. I did hear that on the weekend that it gets very busy and their best items sell out quickly. Call me basic, but I really liked the Snickerdoodle cookie. The savory items were not as good as the sweets but still very good! The prices here are definitely on the expensive side but just have some self control, unlike us, and get a reasonable amount of things and you should be fine. Check out my picture of the menu for an idea of current prices. read more

Came here 30 minutes before they opened and the line was already long. Since we were already there, we decided to just wait in line, not knowing it will take us a little over an hour to get in. Would I wait in line again? No. Pastries and desserts were great but not worth the 1 hour wait. read more

Get there early for the best selections! There was a line even at 1:30pm on a Saturday. I ordered both a blueberry panecota ($8) and a strawberry one. They were delicious!! Devoured them in a heartbeat. The panecota and fruits were so fresh. We will get there early another time to try their baked goods. Service was so friendly and professional. Inside was mostly space for the bakery, which I'm sure they'll out grow pretty soon. read more

Hidden gem in Parker Cutie little space Massive line eager to get inside Insane array of colorful, delicious, homemade pastries Smiley staff behind the counter curating the perfect orders Insane hype - and now I get why! PRO TIP: Each week, assorted breakfast boxes are assembled and available for reserve/purchase online. Orders allow for Thursday - Saturday pickup - and go quick! Do yourself a favor and order this way, then speed to the front of the line for pickup! Last weeks' box featured all things Croissant - highlighting a croissant made of cheese, butter, churro twist, chocolate, vanilla bean (which we thought was lemon) and chocolate! Everything was superior, flakey, delicious and fun to try it all! I can't wait to return (early of course!) and order a la carte - because YUMMMMM! I've had my eye on Poulette for a while now - especially after reading about the James Beard + Michelin award winning bakers - and it did NOT disappoint!! :) read more

Worth the hour wait!!! Delicious pastries with Parisian flare and taste. Located in Parker in a strip mall, Poulette has made the list of highly accomplished bakeries in the country- not just Colorado! Order ahead to secure your pastries- and note, if you order ahead, you can skip the line. There will always be a line around the strip mall as it is a very small shop that only allows for maybe six customers. So so delicious as the variety offered changes up often. Yum! read more

this place is, hands down, the best bakery I've ever been to. That includes Mike's in Boston - they got nothing on our Poulette!!

Love this place! Poulette Bakeshop is such a gem in Parker. They're only open Wednesday-Saturday, so plan ahead and expect a long line in the morning, especially on weekends. Totally worth the wait though. The stuffed croissants are incredible: flaky, rich, and flavorful without being overly sweet. You can really taste the quality. The chocolate croissants are a huge hit with my kids and disappear fast every time we bring them home. Yes, it can be a bit pricey, but for the craftsmanship and quality, it's 100% worth it as an occasional treat. A must-visit if you love excellent pastries and don't mind waiting for something special. There aren't any tables to sit and enjoy a Stumptown coffee with your croissant, but if they ever add seating, we'd be frequent Saturday morning visitors for sure! read more

We arrived the Friday before Valentine's Day about 20 minutes before opening and there was a short line, but it was no problem because there was plenty available. It smelled incredible when we walked in, and there was a small gift shop area with cute items. There is no seating to eat there. The pastries were the most incredible pastries we've ever had. The "cinn roll" was our favorite thing. It was not a traditional cinnamon roll, it was custardy and had a caramel crunch to the bottom. The chocolate raspberry sweet heart was chocolate mousse with raspberry on a chocolate cookie. It was also quite pricey but well worth what we paid for. We got 6 items and it was around $85, but that included multiple large holiday specialty items. read more

No, I'll admit I was here a bit late, but they are still open. When I got here, they literally had two things to offer, even though there seemed to be a lot of other things in the window of their bakery. Guess I'm a little disappointed as this isn't exactly a stone's throw away for me. Maybe I'll make it back, but it won't be a special trip. read more

My partner came here and bought me like 5 baked goods for Valentine's day last year. He said he showed up first thing in the morning and waited in line for an hour. They were good but nothing extraordinary in my opinion. He liked them. Another time he brought me around 930am and we waited in line for about 30 minutes. There was not a lot to choose from at that point but we bought a few things and they were fine. I was in Parker for another event so I decided to stop by and get some treats for my partner since he likes this place so much. A very nice employee helped me. I got there around 1:15pm and there was no line. I can't remember all of the elaborate descriptions but I got the stuff below and my partner likes them a lot. They're all about $10 each. Choux Puff- mango, passion fruit Stuffed Croissant with some fruit stuff in it Citrus treat that came in a cup Overall, I think the baked goods are good but value wise- the prices are like what would be charged at a restaurant which usually has a significant up charge. If it was more affordable, I'd give it a higher rating for sure. read more

Poulette comes with a stunning pedigree ( working for such amazing chefs/restauranteurs Ferran Adrià, Joel Robuchon, Thomas Keller etc) I have actually been fortunate to have dined at most of the places they have worked at. And that is why my hopes were so high!! My context for knowing a bit about baking is that one of my children is a phenomenal baker...so much so they have a huge set of copper Caneles molds. So why a 3 star? Many of the baked goods we ordered were over baked: The Caneles were near burnt on the outside...no caramelization. The Chocolate Croissant had nary any chocolate. The Kouign Amann was also over baked and really lacked both texture and taste. Go to B Patisserie in San fran to find an amazing Kouign !!! The good: Nice Macarons (Pierre Herme would approve). The cream and jelly filled were quite good. So most items are $6 each....and I know baking is a true time consuming endeavor...but for what we paid and what you could expect in Paris....I was let down. Maybe it is employee turnover and bakers that do not have their skill set down yet? For me the drive time and the wait in line I am not inclined to revisit! read more
