I'm there, with Lucy - first in line every weekend! It has become one of our favorite rituals and my wife looks forward to our return with pastries. The croissants deserve special praise -- fresh, perfectly crisp on the outside, buttery and delicate inside, and simply lovely in every way. They are exactly what a French croissant should be, and honestly transport us right back to Paris with every bite. Beyond the pastries, there's a warmth and authenticity here that is hard to find. If you love true French baking and that charming Parisian feeling, this bakery is an absolute treasure.

Delicious pastries and very friendly and welcoming staff. Will be back for the sandwich for sure!read more

I have loved this place since I was little! Most people come for their cookies and cakes, but my…read morefavorite are the sandwich options (w/ pickle)! The service is always fast and their hours are a bit wonky (closed Mondays, etc), but stop by early later in the week or on the weekend for the most options! The inside is small but with the "Becker's" on the side of the building, you can't miss it!

We were staying down the street and needed a birthday cake for our friend. Stopped by and inquired…read moreabout a chocolate flavored one. The lady behind the counter said they only had 1 left, and it was vanilla flavored. Since we didn't have a choice, we ended up buying that one, "the only one left." We asked for the cake to be set aside since we were going on a walk, and after 30 mins more less we returned to see they had several more, and chocolate flavored ones. What the....!!!! Is it that hard to just be honest and tell us you had more options? Hard to believe this establishment would just flat out life. Unreal...

I provided a graphic with some notes for the bakery so I could get the exact cake I wanted for my birthday and they delivered! It was a 3-layer cake with chocolate filling.

Chocolate and raspberry. Every single cake is so good - my favorite is the Nutella; also love the choco-strawberry, dark choco mousse, and coconut. Eons better than Sweet Lady Jane, susiecakes, Beckers, Torrance, etc. This place is small so I would go early or order ahead if you have specific needs or numbers of items. The owner, Carlos, is super nice and accommodating. Sometimes I cry on Monday when they're not open.

Big mistake....I wish I had stayed here. Sometimes you just want classic flavors done right, and that's exactly what they offer (no over-the-top combinations, just really good ice cream). The ambience is clean, there was a bit of a line but it moves quickly, and they have lots of flavors to choose from. The staff was super friendly and accommodating, and they happily let us sample before deciding. The Cookie Monster flavor was unforgettable. Definitely coming back next time.

Le Pain Quotidien is the perfect place to start your morning before spending the day in Manhattan Beach. The atmosphere is relaxed, cozy, and exactly what you'd hope for on a sunny California weekend. The staff were incredibly friendly from the moment we walked in and made us feel welcome throughout the entire visit. Everything we ordered was fresh and delicious. The Eggs Benedict were perfectly cooked, the croissant sandwich was flaky and packed with flavor, and the ricotta toast with prosciutto and peaches was a combination I wasn't expecting to enjoy this much. Every dish looked beautiful and tasted just as good. But the real surprise was the Pistachio Latte. It was honestly one of the best specialty lattes I've had in a long time. I finished my first one during breakfast and liked it so much that I ordered another one to go before heading out to walk around Manhattan Beach. Great food, excellent coffee, friendly service, and an ideal location just minutes from the beach. We'll definitely be back the next time we're in Manhattan Beach.
