Just down the street from our Airbnb, this Rouen dessert shop was a delightful find. The facade is…read moreelegant and inviting, and you have the option to dine outside if you prefer. Inside, you're greeted by a display of handmade pastries and cakes. The space is intimate, with tables fairly close together, and the staff spoke English, which made navigating the menu easy. Our order came out quickly and we wasted no time digging in. My wife and I each ordered a drink and cake combination. If you get the hot chocolate, go with the Grand-Mère. It's noticeably sweeter and richer than the Dame Cakes blend, which even with a couple of sugar cubes added still fell a bit flat. My dessert was excellent. My wife's cake was decent, though her tea was disappointing and largely went undrunk. It's a fun and charming experience, but the menu is a bit hit or miss. Worth doing a little research ahead of time, and don't hesitate to ask the staff for recommendations based on how sweet or rich you like your desserts.

It's cozy, with very pretty floral decor. If you come after 12, they serve a small lunch menu. I was there early so I had a pot of tea and cake - a raspberry something or other. The cake was really good - dense but not dry and not too sweet. Perfect with tea. Service was fine, and the prices are fair.

THE FOOD ------------------…read more+ THEEEEEE gold standard for macarons in Paris ... or anywhere for that matter. + Macarons here are a little crisp, a little pillowy softness and a whollllllle bunch of flavor. - It cost a pretty penny (about 3 Euros for 1 piece), but you won't regret it for a second when you bite into one of these addictively delicious treats. THE SERVICE ----------------------- + All class, top notch white glove service - literally - they handle the macarons with much care like it were gold! THE SURROUNDINGS ------------------------------------ + Located in the heart of the Champs-Élysées on Rue Lincoln, so, YES, it is busy like rush hour outside ... and inside. + There are 2 sides to this massive flagship location - you can either make a purchase of macarons at their store OR dine/sit down in their tea house. Both have lines to wait on, but making a purchase only takes about 10 minutes on a weekend, while dining in looks like an unimaginable wait! + The store to make a macaron purchase at has 3 tables to sit around to enjoy your purchase of delicious macarons. You MUST catch someone about to leave (like we did) in order to snag a table. RANDOM OBSERVATIONS ------------------------------------------- = Expect waits on a weekend afternoon, especially to sit down in the tea room. If you just make a store purchase, it's only about a 10 minute wait ... and you'll be thanking your legs for that. = It's a tourist destination in itself, so expect LOTS of people taking photos of this location. CONCLUSION ----------------------- = Yes, I'm from the tri-state area and they've had a Laduree in NYC since 2011, but there's alwayyyyys something special about going to one of the originals and this spot is no different.

I believe there are two locations, and from what I understand, they don't take reservations, so be prepared to arrive early and wait in line. We arrived around 9:30 AM with a party of five girls and waited about 20 minutes for a table, which honestly wasn't bad at all. The menu is extensive, but they also offer three brunch options that I thought were very reasonably priced. I went with the €45 option, and there was SO much food! Pastries, a breakfast croissant, their famous hot chocolate, and even dessert--it was the perfect amount and such a fun way to try a little bit of everything. Everything was incredibly fresh and delicious. And I absolutely loved the slow, relaxed Parisian pace. Our waitress was so kind and attentive, and we never felt rushed. Instead, we were able to sit back, enjoy our food, and really soak in the experience. Between the beautiful setting, delicious food, and relaxed atmosphere, this is definitely a must-try for a Parisian brunch experience!

If you're down to wait in line, I promise it's worth it. This place is hyped on social media about…read moretheir esthetic et their viral thick hot chocolate. But I personally think they have much more to praise for. This place is full of tourist and there is no specific language that you need to know to order, their staff was nice and helpful for those who did not speak either French or English. Pro-tip: order the hot food while seating and the pastry at the boutique for later (it's cheaper at the boutique compared to on the menu) Their food was great and the setting is great. Could feel busy at all the time but it's worth it and it's not that cramped. Hot chocolate 10/10 really thick and sweet (to me) Egg Benedict 9/10 it's good (could have been better but it's good for the place) French toast 6/10 Meh I mean it's French toast it's not something very extraordinary to expect Scrambled egg 9/10 it was creamy.

Once inside, the display was impressive, with pastries, macarons, cakes, sandwiches, and breads that all looked tempting. Even though we were already full, we couldn't resist ordering a coffee, a lemon tart, and taking home some macarons. The coffee was good, and the lemon tart was enjoyable. One thing to note is that terrace seating costs more than takeaway, so keep that in mind if you plan to sit outside. Overall, it's a nice stop if you're exploring Le Marais. The location is fantastic, the neighborhood is lively, and it's a great place to take a break and people-watch. Like many places in Le Marais, prices are a bit higher, but you're also paying for the location and atmosphere. I always felt safe walking around the area, which made the experience even more enjoyable. I'd probably stop by again if I were in the neighborhood, but next time I'd try some of the bakery's specialties, especially the croissants, sandwiches, or quiche, which seem to get the best reviews.
