Awesome breakfast restaurant. After 4 months of eating toast, I was really excited to finally eat some dark bread again. The taste was awesome and we came back for another breakfast the next day. The service was ok, but we waited 20 min to get a coffee refill. The experience was still worth 5*.
There can be a wait because of the location, but the food was really good. We got the tomato avocado omelet and the Dutch pancakes. The pancakes were excellent. So was the omelet. For the omelet I was expecting tomato slices but it arrived with a tomato sauce. At first I was like, "really??", but the sauce was amazing. We were both very happy.
We finished our meal with a lemon tart. It was the perfect balance of sweet and tart.
We found this place on accident, when surrounding restaurants had very long waits. We were SO glad we did! Delicious organic and vegan options from juices to soups. We enjoyed a delicious breakfast. Prices were reasonable. No wait and a variety of pastries. We'll definently be back!
As a European, I have high expectations with breakfast. Bread, Salad and eggs never taste that good like in Europe. But this restaurant convinced me. The breakfast tasted exactly like it would be in Europe. For someone staying a longer time in America this is great. And also locals like it. Can totally recommend it, even do the price is high.
The bakery is excellent, other stuff, not so much. The variety and quality of coffee served is just disappointing for a French impression. The waiting staff have not been quite up to the task - not attentive enough and shockingly below average knowledge of coffee (I’m no expert but do know what different roasts are and if you serve them.) The French donuts, however, make you wanna go back!
Very quaint french restaurant. I really like this place and is one of my favourite whenever in Chicago. Service can be a little hit and miss at times but the food is generally very very good. There is seating inside and outside. Try and visit early for breakfast and enjoy a fruit salad and croissant.
Good food, small portions... that about sums it up. We had an almond croissant and a regular croissant which were both good. However the blueberry muffin was very generic and not worth the $4 price tag. I enjoyed my eggs with avocado in a skillet but was surprised at how small the portion was for $12. I have to remember that the location has a lot to do with that. And if you can sit by the front window and enjoy looking out on Michigan Avenue while you're eating, then it might be worth it. Coffee was good but our server was pretty busy and I did not get my second cup of coffee until we were getting ready to leave... however, I was able to take it to go, which was great.
A Clean, Relaxing & Friendly atmosphere. A polite and cheerful hostess ( Dorothy ). Hard working crew members. Delicious and healthy food selections especially the breads. Keeps clean bathroom. I highly recommend this restaurant.
Loved our food and drinks. My husband ordered the Belgium waffles and they were fantastic. I ordered the Zucchini Thai salad and it was flavourful and delicious. The staff was friendly and courteous, not overly friendly but kind enough. We're already planning on going back even if it's just for take-out.
Still not sure how to pronounce this but I'm always trying to tell someone about it and stopping after the "Le Pain" part... Lol.
Super delicious! Best Avocado toast I have ever had! Amazing jam as well.
