Filled donut was pillowy soft and the seasonal churro latte was perfect, not too sweet. The use of color in the pastries makes it almost like art, instagrammable and too appetizing to eat. Surroundings are modern and clean.

Found this place by accident but will definitely be returning. The Mini Strawberry Soft Cream Cake was one of the best things I’ve ever eaten. Hands down my new favorite dessert. We tried several items just to give it a shot. Didn’t love the Tiramisu cake but it just wasn’t bad. It’s pricey but what do you expect in Ladera Ranch the rent is astronomical.
Looking forward to trying it again.

The coffee was cold and the slice of chocolate cake tasted like freezer burn. The atmosphere was depressing. The music playing was terrible, more suitable for urban outfitters or a college dorm with bad taste. I would have enjoyed a twix bar inside cvs more than sitting in this establishment. Girl working looked miserable, no smile no asking how everything was, and we were the only people in there eating. Just stood by us as she checked sell by dates. I’m bummed I was so hoping for a good place to get coffee and a desert after dinner. I’d suggest getting some cute coffee shop music or french music, vintage music, something to warm up the place. As for the freezer burn taste, that needs to be looked into.

Wow! This place is amazing. The food looks as good in real life as their photos. And it tastes even better if you can believe it. You grab a tray and can spend as much time as you need checking everything out and grabbing it yourself. They will heat it up for you at the counter. The rolls and the hot dog croissant were my favorite so far but I will definitely be back to try everything.

Moving to South County has definitely limited my options, but so glad that a Paris Baguette has opened a location in Ladera Ranch. The inside is so bright, airy and clean with plenty of seating options.
The pastries are clearly labeled with a short description. It’s nice that they include a list of ingredients, which I find helpful for those who may have allergens that is often overlooked or just as a nice to know.
Some of our favorites have been palmier, milk bread, fruit tart and egg tarts. For savory items, I love the pastry frank and curry croquette. It seems like they started expanding more of their menu with seasonal items such as such as pizettas and fall vibes with biscoff and pumpkin flavored things. Looking forward to giving those a try some time.

This bakery falls a bit short in both taste and price. Small pastries are over $5 each, and they didn’t have mochi that day. The chocolate-dipped pastry was okay but slightly greasy, and the flavor wasn’t particularly memorable. The bakery itself is charming, with outdoor seating, and the selection looks tempting, though I hadn’t tried the drinks. Other areas have better bakeries—this one is the choice in Ladera, but it’s definitely not Porto’s. Overall, it didn’t fully deliver on taste or value, and I don’t think it’s worth a return.

Please go to a different Paris Baguette location. I waited over 30 minutes for 2 cake slices when told it would only take 5 minutes. Placed a cake order for Christmas and hope they remember. Another customer had her order half forgotten with little compensation.

It is so exciting to finally have a Paris Baguette open right here in Ladera Ranch! We stopped by the new location shortly after it opened and had a wonderful experience from start to finish.
Our first impression was how immaculately clean and bright the entire place is. The modern, welcoming atmosphere makes it a very pleasant spot to visit. The staff was just as impressive; every employee we interacted with was incredibly nice, friendly, and happy to help, which really makes for a great first visit.
Of course, the main reason to go is the food, and it is consistently good. The display cases are filled with beautifully crafted pastries, savory items, and stunning cakes that all look and taste delicious. Whether you’re grabbing a flaky croissant for breakfast, a savory pastry for lunch, or just a coffee and a sweet treat, the quality is always reliable.
This new Paris Baguette is a fantastic and much-welcomed addition to the community. With its friendly staff, clean environment, and delicious selection of food, it has quickly become a new go-to spot for us. We will definitely be back often and highly recommend it.

I stopped by this morning to pick up a sandwich for lunch. When I attempted to enjoy the sandwich (chicken salad), the bread was so soggy it was inedible. I tried using a fork to scoop out some of the chicken salad, but the wet lettuce, overripe cucumbers and other odd additions, I gave up. I looked forward to this location opening near me, but I won’t visit again.

I bought a $50 cake. Absolutely no service – had to wait for them to even notice me as people passed me while I was in front of the cakes. Most unfriendly management and lack of service ….. I’ve been going to Paris Baguette for over 20 years since my time in Korea … but this is the worst experience ever … plus look at the box they put a $50 cake in … filthy
