"Amazing Service from Mark! I had such a great experience at this café today. Mark, the barista, was absolutely fantastic—friendly, attentive, and welcoming from the moment I walked in. He made amazing recommendations, prepared my drink perfectly, and created such a positive atmosphere. It’s rare to meet someone who genuinely enjoys what they do, and Mark really made my visit special. Thank you, Mark! I’ll definitely be coming back because of you. ☕✨"

"I’ve been looking for a typical French bakery, and as someone originally from Paris, I was really happy to find this spot. Back home, croissants are about €1, and I’ve gotten used to paying much higher prices in the U.S. — but I was pleasantly surprised to find a large chouquette for only $1! It was really good: light, fluffy, and just as it should be, with large pieces of sugar on top. I also tried what they called an almond croissant, though it was shaped more like a pain au chocolat — filled with both chocolate and almond. It was pretty good and I enjoyed it. The cannelé is usually my favorite French pastry. The inside texture was right, but the outside was much too hard — not the typical crust and really tough to bite. Maybe it was just that one batch. The cappuccino was fine — not a highlight, but decent. Coffee isn’t really the star here, and the portion was small, but they also sell a variety of French biscuits and grocery products, even things like Chocapic cereals ($13.95 here versus about €5 in France), which felt too pricey. There are just a few tables inside and a couple of benches outside. It was a sunny Saturday, eso I sat outside and enjoyed my treats for the most part. I wanted to try the pistachio croissant, but they weren’t making it that day. I’ll definitely come back to try other pastries — the apricot croissant looked especially tempting. Overall, I spent under $18 including tip, which felt like decent value for what I got. A nice little taste of France! 🇫🇷🥐"

"Le Fournil is a charming French bakery. I especially loved their apple turnover, and apricot Danish—both perfectly balanced, not too sweet, and full of flavor. Their bread is also fantastic; I've tried their walnut loaf several times, and it’s always fresh and delicious. The coffee is also great. The staff is friendly and welcoming. I highly recommend this place!"
