We'll probably try it again the next time we're in the area. But were were a bit disappointed by the pastries. I got an almond croissant and it was way too sweet. Wasn't worth the long line - we were waiting outside the front doors on the sidewalk. It does seem like many people were ordering baguettes, so we may do that next time.

Loved the butterscotch pecan twist & the chocolate croissants! Owner & staff were friendly & courteous. Answered all my questions when I called the day before to place my order. Will definitely be back!

Fabulous French bread and pastries - baked with care and with the best ingredients. You’ll not find anything better than these in Coachella Valley. Try the epi baguette with salted butter - you’ll not regret it.

Quite busy, lots of regulars, friendly proprietress, yummy pastries and good coffee and we returned within the hour to buy more. The texture of the kougn and pain chocolat were soooo good, the napolitan dud not disappoint and i eish i would have bought 3 of the pear
I travel to PS once or twice per year and always go to this bakery, the pastries are authentically French and delicious. Now that they are making bread again, that too is high quality.My only fault is the friendliness of the service, the owner is quite curt and abrupt, I strike it up to being efficient and business-like, but I can see how others have been offended.

Bought two tarts and two salted butter caramel cheesecakes. Pretty pricy but was hoping they would be worth it. Sorry to report we were disappointed with the taste after $8 on each item. We thought they were going to be excellent and they were very average with kind of a bland taste. We may try again sometime.

Authentic French bakery, you can tell everything is fresh. Not exactly the Palm Springs vibe and the owner was getting frustrated at some very American customers but otherwise great.Kid-friendliness: Friendly but not a cafe meant for loud and interruptive kids

Pastries are okay as Palm Springs doesn't have many choices but it's not worth the rudeness and the bad guest service.A couple of new places opened and they are amazing with amazing guest service.

Go there and taste the bread and other baked goods for yourself! There’s usually a line specially in the mornings but you can pre order the day before so you can just breeze through?. The only patisserie I would recommend.

These pastries are Devine!!!! The biggest problem you will have is making a decision on what to select! I ordered a plain croissant, a pecan "roll" and a pear tarte... as well as a delightful fresh squeezed juice. The absolute highlight was the pecan roll (I know there is a beautiful French name but can't remember it. The roll was amazing! Ooey, gooey, chewey center with a flakey, slightly crunchy outer shell. Filled will tons of pecans and a gorgeous caramel layer and drizzle. It's also huge! It took 3 days to eat it so plenty to share if you're willing! The pear tarte was very light and delicate. Croissant was solid but I'd go with more interesting options. Don't skip the tangy, thick, gorgeous juice. If you are a tourist this is a bit (15 min) of a walk (v easy) from the center of town and you'll wonder if you should turn around, don't! It's safe and so worth it. You can also drive (there is parking) or ride share. Get over there early and try out your French with the lovey women who (own?) work there!!!!
