Delightful Patisserie near Notre Dame in Paris

Best croissants we have eaten in France. So good. The other pastries are just as amazing. Highly recommend. Open daily it’s our go to!,

It’s a small place with a few tables, but it offered some interesting deserts. I had the creme brûlée and it was quite good and an interesting take on a classic dessert. The service was very good, would give five stars if it had better...seating.More seating.

We walked by and noticed the beautiful pastries in the window so we had to stop. We had the chocolate mousse and the Creme brûlée with ice cream for the kids and a rosé cider for the adults. Everything was unique and delicious! The service...was friendly too.More was friendly too.

This is the only eatery in Paris that we visited more than once during our 12-day stay in the City of Light.

On our first visit, we shared the incredible Ham and Cheese Croissant and Notre Dame (Green Apple) dessert, while sipping two Americanos. The...owners are Americanos themselves, and the staff here speak excellent English.

During our second visit, we had the Quiche Lorraine and Chocolate Bread with Almonds, both outstanding, and under 8 euros, total.

This was the first place we visited after reaching our hotel, so we had some trouble finding it. It does not have a large sign in front; we only happened to see a small sign on the side of the patisserie that said A. Lacroix.

Everything we had was excellent. They have other desserts that looked amazing that we didn't try.More owners are Americanos themselves, and the staff here speak excellent English.

Nice spot overlooking Notre Dame by the river. Bakers do a great job of cakes and quiches All reasonably priced. Sunny position for winters day

Loved the location, just next to the river with a view at the Notre Dame! A great place to have a cup of coffee. Though the desserts were a bit heavy to my taste. If i visited again i would try something different on the...menuMore menu

Opened face veg tartine was incredible! We also shared a crescent with ham/cheese and melted cheese in top( Croque monsier inspired). The desserts looked amazing … we got the deconstructed crème brûlée. The staff was so friendly and happy to speak English with us

This is the best cafe we went to in Paris. The chocolate nut and caramel slices were AMAZING. The small cakes our friends had also totally delicious. A lovely location as well, opposite Notre Dame. And surprisingly quiet. Definitely worth going to.

We came here looking for some Parisian pastries we can stuff our face with and this place did not disappoint. We got a couple of things we couldn’t pronounce and each was better than the last. We loved it and would definitely come back.

Very kind staff, excellent service. The desserts were amazing, tasty. Not the cheapest but it worth the price. The macarons are fresh and home made

If I could give this more than 5 stars I would!
First place we ate on our trip to Paris. After travelling we wanted a coffee and snack and saw this place had good reviews on Google.

This place is just like heaven!

Their desserts are so tasty and you can taste how fresh the ingredients are. It definitely is one of the best patisserie in Paris. It is not the cheapest place for a croissant or coffee but it is well...More

This place is amazing went twice and would go back again. Desserts are not too sweet and taste like drops of heaven. Must must go

We loved the icecream and their desserts. Inside was so lovely, with good furniture and all. They also have great customer service.

A hidden gem with nice views and nice staff
Delicious food and all fresh
I will be back soon and looking forward to my next trip here

We had heard about the Norte Dame apple and went to this delightful place just for that. It did not disappoint!
Wish we could have tried all their beautiful creations

This was a fantastic spot for great food right beside Notre Dam.
We had quiche, salad & pain au chocolate all we better than great. Salad was fresh, quiche were light and yet filling and the pain au chocolate was better than I had remembered...More

this cafe, or patisserie was beautiful and modern, with a scenic view of the notre dame and it was just splendid. it was in an amazing location and the food was absolutely amazing!

Absolutely superb place directly opposite Notre Dame on the South Bank of the river. Staff were really friendly and the place had a lovely and relaxed feel. I had a Notre Dame apple and my wife had a cheese and ham croissant. Both were really...More

great litte cornercafe, with very pretty small cakes that tasted amazing.
not a lot of tables in the cafe, but if u get a table, you sit right across from norte dame from the other side of the river. very pretty.

This small patisserie across from Notre Dame is a delightful place to take a break and enjoy an espresso with a sweet. The desserts are incredible and the selection is great (although I recommend getting there early for the best selection).

Great food, great service, tasty drinks. I came here with my partner for a weekend in Paris and it was perfect. I would come again!

So full disclosure, my friend's sister owns this patisserie, though I've never met her (Jackie). On a recent trip to Paris I did decided to stop by while I was walking in the neighborhood and SO glad I did as it was a wonderful spot...More

I pop in regularly for a new cake, I am never disappointed! Some are wondrously smooth, some crack loudly, some are almost too pretty to disturb by eating.
Every time it's a delight.

The place has a very nice location but the homemade lemonade did not look fresh at all, but rather stale (and hence I bought a canned drink instead), the espresso was watery and the pastry we bought was cold. We went there because of the...More

This bakery is run by a fantastic staff. They are very kind and have good service. The food is astronomical! It not only looks exquisite, but also tastes the part. Their raspberry jam surrounded by their meringue vase looks fantastic, and their tarts look like...More

Friendly service. Delicious pastries! Especially the apple pastry named after the Notre Dame! I would definitely go again!More

Perfect for breakfast. Had croissant which just came out of the oven and was perfect! Coffee is good as well.

Almond croissant was not that good

Very welcoming not only to families, but to tourist families especially. They've got a little space dedicated to a play area for very little children. The quiches and pastries hit a wide variety of tastes, even for very picky kids. It's not cheap, but considering...More

We stopped in for coffee and pastries. What a selection there was! all on tiny little serving trays. The coffee was good and the pastries were great. We had to choose one but could have chosen several from the amazing selection. Really enjoyable place and...More

This is a superb small pastry shop with a great view of Notre Dame cathedral. We sat in the window and had two great cappuccinos and two fantastic pastries. The owner and staff were super friendly and helpful. Highly recommended!

Really nice and easy coffee stop near Notre Dame. Lots of choices for sweet treats and some savoury choices. Nice casual atmosphere and friendly service.

Go on...treat yourself and go here. We went twice and don´t stop talking about the amazing cakes. Beautiful and good prices.

We at first went for lunch and ordered a croissant, ham and cheese croissant, and chocolate bun, all of which were disappointing since they were not crispy or very tasty. Service was good however; the server was polite and courteous. We thought for the quality...More

Visited here solely for desserts.

The hot chocolate was with microwaved milk! And there is barely any chocolate flavour. Extremely disappointing.

The dessert was extremely sweet as well. Way too sweet for my liking and there are other better places.

...

Great food and drinks. Staff super friendly. Cozy quiet environment. Almond croissant is a must have.

Snug on the left bank literally just across from Notre Dame, you can sit street side at this quaint piece of Heaven. If you are interested in macarons, this is the place to go. First, they are huge, and second they are unlike anything I’ve...More

We stumbled upon this place. Everything was absolutely delightful: cappuccinos, croissants, and especially their large macaro(o)ns that are absolutely to die for. I'm glad we were lucky enough to stop there.

The croissants we ate were awesome! The service great and comparing the prices to other places near the sights, this one can't be compared. 3.50€ for a coffee and croissant is perfect. Would recommend!

P.s. don't miss the macaroons

Oh my goodness! The cakes, but the beautiful salad pizza's! The whole family LOVED it! Also the ham and cheese croissant to die for!

Lovely service and cakes to die for! The ham and cheese croissant was a perfect way to start the day! Must try: An Apple a day!

I popped in here after reading all the great reviews. Most desserts started at €6.50 so not cheap but I wanted to see why it was so popular.

I ordered the pistachio and raspberry tart. The pistachio was very creamy but I found it a...More

This is an amazing patisserie. Everything looks crafted to perfection and tastes exactly the same. The macarons are great and the extravagant pastries just cannot be passed up. I've never had a dish look so beautiful and appetizing and then exceed my expectations.

My friends and I stopped here needing refreshment. The drinks and pastry were excellent — but it was the service that was stellar. Two young men were very professional, courteous and helpful. A lovely break during a hot day of walking and being a tourist!

We called here for afternoon coffee and cake. Position was amazing, sitting outside. Cakes were phenomenal!!! Also they served Rooibos tea, difficult to get everywhere. Couldn’t recommend it highly enough. A must visit if you are in Paris. Thanks very much.

The pastries at this place are amazing! You can tell they’re made with such care and expertise. The chef really seems to care about the ingredients they use and the results are both beautiful and delicious. It was also really amazing to find a place...More

Such amazing dessert! My personal favorite, oldie but goodie, their macaroons (so fresh!) But the coconut/mango pastry was delicious as well. Must go - worth the money.

On the strength of other reviews we visited A.Lacroix. Situated opposite Norte Dame its in a nice location. We had Quiche with Salad and a Fabulous cake. The choice cakes and macaroons is excellent. The staff were friendly & helpful.

What a special place! The location is amazing directly opposite beautiful Notre Dame's rose window and 10 minutes walk to Jardine du Luxembourg. The cakes are like something out of a fairy tale, I had the Notre Dame, which was the most amazing Apple creation....More

Returning multiple times as always, we are never disappointed by the wonderful creations available here. Friendly staff and busy atmosphere make this patissier a must visit.

Amazing cakes. This place has variety options for cake lovers. However coffee was quite mediocre. Place is very good located.

Located just across the river from Notre Dame, the small cafe is known for its pastries and croissant sandwiches.

Great atmosphere, brilliant service, spectacular view and delightful pastries! I recommend a visit to this quite small but charming café

This is a place you must visit when you go to Paris. With Notre Dame as a view from the window, great coffe and a fantastic almond croissant. What more can you wish for?

We stopped in for quiche, coffee and tea. The cashier/server was delightful! They offered 3 types of quiche and we had one of each - all very good. The honey roasted nuts were excellent!

A perfect little cafe with beautiful and amazing desserts. We stumbled upon it on our way to Notre Dame and made a special trip back. Staff is very friendly and American. One of our favorite places so far in Paris! Highly recommend.

I found this place and went to it based on trip advisor reviews... we’ll let me tell you... it really is fantastic! The staff is awesome, I met one of the Americans who works there.. the other American is the owner. Super friendly... offered great...More

After a walk around the cathedral called into this coffee shop. The cakes looked and tasted superb. Would love to come back.

我們點了兩個鹹派跟最棒的甜點：Notre Dame，這真的是我自己覺得人生中吃過最棒的甜點之一，尤其在這麼多觀光客的地點（就在聖母院旁），我們通常不能有太高的期待，但這家甜點店卻提供了需要超高技巧的作品，重點是真的太好吃了！調溫巧克力包住的內餡中有輕盈的慕斯與煮得酸甜適中的蘋果丁、帶有些許鹹味的酥皮，完全是蘋果塔的藝術等級再創作，這是一家不容錯過的糕點店，而你絕對不會失望。

餐廳服務的部分來說，這裡提供的比較是家庭式、簡單、輕鬆的空間，沒有多的服務生，師傅還帶著自己的小孩在廚房穿梭，點餐在櫃檯，英語溝通沒有問題、地點極佳、環境整潔。

2018巴黎最佳名不虛傳！

值得一去再去！

The most welcoming café I ever experienced! Visited more than 10 times. Coffee is the best coffee in Paris. Food is tasty and all patisseries are fresh and beautiful.

Friendly welcome. Great choice of snacks and patisserie. Counter service and tables outside. A pleasant break with views of Notre Dame.

We loved this place so much. The service was excellent and fantastic view of Notre Dam. The pastries were amazing and the coffee great too.

Visited this cafe located near the Notre Dame. Lovely and friendly staff, and the desserts all looked gorgeous. Ordered the apple dessert which was divine - slightly sour dessert with apple cubes and vanilla cream inside. Definitely recommend :)

it was nice and cozy especially on a rainy day with a view of Notredam. The reception was so polite and speaks English, so if you are not good in French, don't worry :)

Just dropped in for lunch; proprietor and staff the nicest and friendliest we’ve encountered. Ham croissants and various tarts were super delicious. Great place!

I wandered paris for a few days looking for the perfect 'bun' shop. This place just jumped out at me as we ran back to the hotel on a freezing sunday evening. The staff (we met the patissier) were all fab, and the pastries were...More

Everything was delicious. I forgot to take pictures. I will on my next stop in a day or two. Stop in for a great sweet treat or yummy quiche. Everyone was super friendly

This patisserie, glacier and chocolatier is absolutely fabulous. It is in quai de Montebello with a lovely view through the trees on the Seine to Notre Dame. This will certainly not disappoint anyone with a sweet tooth.

Excellent place for freshly made quiche and macaroons. Very pleasant service. Tempting pastries. Salmon quiche and pistachio macaroons were great. Need to come back for the tarts.

Lovely little cafe overlooking Notre Dame. Yummy homemade treats, ice tea and delicious quiche. An excellent find.

Brilliant place for coffee, tea, ice cream, sorbet. Away from the crowds yet less than eighty metres from Notre Dame!! Not bad

After a Long walk I was tired. I wanted to find a cafe to just have desert and chill. Saw this on TripAdvisor and went to check it out. Lovely cafe and staffs are excellent in service. Really love itMore

Saw this in a write up and based on the photos had to give it a try. Absolutely incredible. We got the green apple which was beyond yummy. It’s close to Notre Dame and we will definitely be back before we leave Paris.

Lovely place to have a cappuccino and the cakes are truly like pieces of art you will love it for a good break in your sightseeing

My friend and I first visited this shop in August 2016. They had just opened about 2 weeks before. We had a long chat with one of the owners who is a US expat. She and her partner were the only staff.
