Reviews
Carlsbad French Pastry Cafe has specialized in French pastries and custom orders since 1998!
What we ordered:
• breakfast croissant with fresh fruit
• Cajun shrimp omelette with house potatoes
• fruit tart
• Pistachio cake
• almond croissant
• iced latte
• cafe lysette
I loved their croissants! I had it in the breakfast croissant plate and the almond version. It was so buttery and perfectly flaky!
I had the Cafe Lysette which is a hazelnut, white chocolate latte. Loved the flavor combo and they did let me know it is a little on the sweeter side so if you want it a little less sweet, let them know!
It really is such a cute bakery and you could tell they had a lot of regulars by how they interacted with their customers!
Poor service, they kept rushing me to order when nobody was waiting in line and when I had questions their response was “I dont know,” the correct response is “I don’t know but let me find out.
Now onto the food, all I can say is this is a low end bakery trying not hard enough to be a French Bakery. If you want phenomenal tasting French desserts and parties and great customer service I highly recommend Paris Baguette in Carlsbad. I ordered the pear tart, blueberry fruit tart, tiramisu cake and a chocolate croissant. I am from Europe where we have phenomenal food so trust the review.
-The tiramisu cake was underwhelming and the cream on top was gross so I have to remove it.
-The pear tart was very dry and the pears had no tase to them.
-the blueberry fruit tart also disappointing because the cream wasn’t that good and there was barely any of it in the tart because they add in this grain junk under it when it’s only supposed to be the crust, cream and blueberries. The only pro was that the blueberries were really good.
-The chocolate croissant was pretty good. Buttery and flakey and the right amount of chocolate.
My total was only $23 which is very low but it makes sense with the low quality food.
I will definitely never return and continue going to Paris Baguette because the cream they use in a lot of the pastries is phenomenal! Definitely not like the Boston cream crap at Dunkin Donuts. Yes Paris Baguette is pricey but you get what you pay for and they have a rewards program which is awesome. I would have rather saved the $23 and gone to Paris Baguette (no I don’t work there, it’s just the food is amazing!)
I have attached pictures below, the last pic is everything we chose not to continue eating and tossed it and the cream was taken off the tiramisu.
Enjoy live music @ 9am Saturday by the owner and his friend. ❤️
