A beautiful French spot with a charming atmosphere and excellent service. The selection is wide, and the pastries and desserts are truly amazing. I highly recommend the Tartine du Saumon – it was exquisite!
The chicken and mushroom crepe didn’t impress me much, but the chocolate and raisin pudding (if I’m not mistaken) was absolutely outstanding – one of the highlights of our visit.
The only real disappointment was my cappuccino – it was far too bitter and undrinkable, which was unfortunate. Also, I’d like to point out that the menu and prices on the website are not up to date.
Still, this place is wonderful overall, with a great menu and desserts worth coming back for. I’m already planning to return and try the French onion soup!

First time here. Came with a friend for a hot beverage and pastry. It’s a medium size shop, there are two seating areas that have plenty of natural light from the large windows. You order at the counter where you can also see all the pastry items.
We ordered a coffee latte and a London Fog Tea Latte. Also ordered the Monkey Bread and Spinach Quiche. Everything was made just right (little lavender, little vanilla, extra foam), and the food was the right temps. The Monkey Bread was a generous portion, and not overglazed.
There are plenty of places to sit, in either of the two rooms. Most people were having quiet conversations, so the noise level was good.
The service was friendly, and seemed genuinely warm. Lots of smiles from the several staff members.
This is a place that I would not hesitate to come back to.

Monday August 2025: Whenever I come to NSB, the staff is always so friendly and welcoming. Today for lunch I had a tuna sandwich on miche with a side salad and a cup of the tomato soup. The miche (sourdough bread) was fantastic!! It was toasted and buttered and the tuna salad was fresh and delicious. The tomato soup was excellent! Great flavor and creaminess. 5/5!

I always have a wonderful experience at North Shore Boulangerie, and much of that is thanks to the outstanding service from their Café Attendants. They are incredibly personable—greeting everyone with genuine warmth—and keep things moving quickly without ever making the experience feel rushed.
I especially enjoy my interactions with Megan. Her positive energy consistently elevates my visits and adds to the bakery’s already cozy and inviting atmosphere.
Service like this keeps me coming back. Highly recommend!

Everything about this little neighborhood gem was perfect. I had good parking, a delicious lunch, and took a chocolate croissant for later. On my list to eat at again!

The orange juice and tomato soup are very good, and the bread is fresh and delicious. The service has leaves something to be desired. It seems like a place that is trying to be high end by not providing welcoming service, which was not the vibe I was looking for. It’s a cute place, and worth a visit, but I probably won’t be going back.

Love this place,…BUT. Diabolical hot chocolate. Very tasty offerings and great bread, however, I ordered a hot chocolate expecting to get a Parisian/European delicacy and received a lukewarm watery concoction of some sort of powder mix. Absolutely dreadful. Not even to a Swiss Miss standard. Totally understand if we don’t get the European experience of a proper hot chocolate but this was certainly not the standard I would expect.

Espresso 8.4/10
Ice Vanilla Latté 9.0/10
Muscles 9.2/10
French toast 8.8/10
One of the best brunch/breakfast places in the Milwaukee area.
The muscles were perfectly cooked and drowned in a tomatoes based sauce that I would have drank straight out of a trough if they had served it in such a way. And the bread that was served with it, a beautiful sponge center to soak up all the juicy goodness with a crunchy crust that balanced the texture without destroying the roof of your mouth. Honesty top three muscles I’ve ever eaten and I’ve had them in Michelin star restaurants in France.
The French toast was great and not drowned in high fructose corn syrup, thank the heavens. It was instead served with a generous drizzle of their in house made raspberry spread. The light sweetness of the berries and rich creaminess of the whipped cream paired perfectly with the franch toast.
The secret is out, so if you plan to come on a Sunday or Saturday for brunch, book a reservation.

**I’ve only had pastries here, and not the food, so that’s all I’m reflecting.
I’ve been here many times before (pre-covid), and the decor is so pretty. It’s great for some coffee with your girlfriends, or for a date with your lover, though some guys may find it too French? but I haven’t been here since covid and I’m not sure why I never wrote a review for the place. Their pastries are truly delicious.
About 2 weeks ago, a friend made us a care package with about every pastry they had, and I really liked the plain beignets.
Beignets:
The raspberry filled I didn’t like, but that’s a personal preference – I just don’t like fruit jelly in my pastries. any kind. The hazelnut was good, but the plain tasted better. Somehow, the wasn’t the same thing with just a hazelnut filling added, but more like two different kinds of pastries altogether. This is also true of their croissants.
Croissants:
The plain one is flakier and butteri-er. Even shaped differently. chocolate croissant is shaped more like a rectangular donut. I can’t remember what the almond croissant looked like? Bad memory. But one thing I know is that I’m never a big fan of croissants that are rectangular. I like the looking like crescent moons.
Macarons:
we got a bunch of different flavors and I liked some more than others, but I can’t remember what they all were. You must have these when they are fresh. Do not let them sit for a day. Even a day later they just don’t have the same chewyness level. If you’re going to do that, get the frozen ones at Trader Joe’s. Otherwise, enjoy these right on the spot!
Bombe du nord:
Looks beautiful, a chocolate dome with gold flakes. Kinda like a chocolate mousse, very, very rich, but oh so satisfying. I can only eat a quarter piece at a time, it’s that rich.
Then there was this long rectangular pastry/dessert that I don’t know the name of. It had some gummies fruit layers, some cake laters, some cream layers.? I don’t know what it was, but it was so good. I didn’t see it the next time we visited. And I don’t know why I didn’t take pictures of this. It was so goooooood…..
So Saturday morning, we picked up 2 plain beignets and and 2 macarons.
Macarons:
chocolate – it was very full of chocolate flavor. like, infused. But I didn’t like it too much. I could just eat chocolate mousse or something. Oh, I don’t know when these were made, but the chocolate one was definitely made before the strawberry one, maybe even a day ahead. Not as soft and chewy, but rather harder and crumbly.
strawberry – ok, so I say strawberry, but it may have been another flavor. I can’t tell what it was. all I remember is that this one was a piece of the moon. So good. There was just enough hint of fruitiness, chewy amazingness, and even some cream filling surrounding it that just brought everything together. I was sad I only got one.

Really makes you feel like you’re in Paris at a café. When I’m in the area, it’s a treat to stop and get some croissants and unique pastries. We especially love the chocolate raspberry tarts!!!
