Reviews for Paris Baguette in Berkeley, CA
Quite a large selection of pastries. Usual coffee and tea selection. Coffee is not refillable :(. Pastries were fresh and... tasty. Very nice for a quick bite Read more
This location has really gone downhill. From the worn out interior, dry (slightly stale) sandwich bread, bland egg salad, and... even the way the employee packaged my sweet cream dessert inside/ on top of a savory one - the experience was under whelming. Read more
I have tried this place a few times, all times getting something different. Crab croquet Not good, the breading was only good... thing. The filling was like chicken pot pie filling but with imitation crab instead of chicken. It was also cold andunpleasant. 1/5 Curry croquet Curry croquet is the exact thing to crab croquet but looks cooler. I was greatly disappointedwhen I bit into it. There was no curry but rather the same cold fowl filling of corn and imitation crab that is in the crabcroquet. I greatly felt defeated, lost and confused. 0/5 Coffee cake Goes great with coffee, big and fluffy. 4/5 Cake(unknown) Nice soft texture, creamy and sweet. 4/5 Iced coffee Coffee that is iced :) 5/5 There is a lot of diverse options ofdeserts and pastries to choose from. If you come in and always get different items, some days you'll pick something horrible,others something good. Personally after my experience with the croquets, I'd stay away from the more savory items. Exceptions tosandwiches, bagels, and cheese pastries which are all hard to mess up. Also it's convenient that it is right outside of downtownBart. Read more
Paris Bakery is one of my favorite go to bakery for birthday cakes and pastries. I rate this as a 1 because I am not able to... rate it as a 0. I have the worst experience from this Paris Baguette establishment in Berkeley. I had made a cake order for mymom?s birthday. I requested online to have it delivered to her since she is 2 hrs away from where I live and I was not able tobe there for her birthday. Instead of a cake, my mom received a loaf of bread and three pastries! When I called, I wastransferred to the manager and was told they couldn?t find my order and that the computer system has been down. I would have towait for another manager to come in to find my order to get my refund. I am not sure why the manager of this establishmentdoesn?t have the same access as the other manager whom she works with but to me that was unacceptable. I was told that I wouldget a call back at 2:30pm but didn?t get a call until 4:05pm. Out of curiosity I asked the manager how they got my ordered wrongand was told that sometimes it gets busy and there are two to three dashers and they just call out the name and confirm it. Inmy opinion, from what I was told the manager is that they do not have a system to make sure the right orders are given to thedelivery man. I would never order from this place again. Read more
My wife and I stopped in for brunch on Rainy Sunday. We had a bacon, spinach and cheese omelette and a pastrami and havarti... sandwich. Both were very tasty and made to order. They offer coffee and feature fresh baked goods. Not overly crowded when wewere there. Read more
I always enjoy the occasional stop at Paris Baguette, and it has to be occasional because I do like quite a lot of their... pastries, and their very aesthetically pleasing, perfectly not-too-sweet cakes are pretty much the standard for birthdaycelebrations. The cream cheese doughnut, tapioca bread, fruit pastries, savory pastries, and chocolate bread are the mostdangerous items for my suffering waistline. Wait, I just listed everything there, didn't I? I do notice that this location is alittle more unkempt than the ones I have been to in South Bay, but I'm guessing that being next to the BART station andfrequented by college kids has something to do with it?

Tasty Sandwiches Came in for a quick bite at around 3pm. There were seats around. Not too packed. I ordered the Maple & Bacon... Cheese Melt sandwich. The portion feels more snack-size than a lunch / dinner. But then maybe I was hungry. The sandwich wasquite delicious. Got an iced coffee too which was alright. Read more
I wish Paris Baguette in the US was like the ones in Korea. Paris Baguette is like the ABC stores of Honolulu in Seoul, it?s... everywhere and it?s so delicious!!! The red velvet cake was ok, we prefer the rainbow cake. Read more
