“ Love, love, love this place. Is it a little pricey? Yes. But this is DC and the quality is fantastic!! Seriously...best almond croissant Ive ever had. The sandwiches rival what I ate when I lived in Germany and the coffee is very good. Theres also seating available both inside and outside. I would go here every day if I could! Its probably for the best that I dont live nearby but I wish I did! ”
“ Beautiful atmosphere, polite staff, yummy treats and drinks. I got the Jasmine tea and a croissant so delicious and hubs grabbed a Americano with caramel and oat milk. Great place to stop as you explore the city. ”
“ Great breakfast options we tried the quiche, croque madame, and the eggcheese croissant. The cappuccino was good too. The staff were friendly and attentive. I was so glad we decided to stop here for breakfast, would definitely recommend. ”
“ Updated September 2024 Went back to this location again today and the staff was awesome. But they are understaffed by a lot so be patient. The cashier is literally cooking and bagging food while running it to tables and the manager was the barista and trying to cover the cashier role when the actual cashier is doing food prep. Be patient, the food is good and worth it and the staff are doing their best. Original One of the best places to grab a quick breakfast if you want quiet in the morning or a fast lunch during the day. And yes this is the same Paul bakery youll find in Paris. My favorite was the blueberry tart but they stopped making it a few years back, but I still love the prosciutto sandwiches. This morning I had a sausage, egg and cheese croissant and my friend had the ham and cheese one. We finished with pistachio and raspberry macaroons. Its a great place for a quick bite to eat, and quiet first thing in the morning. ”
