It's not Paris, it's Indian Rocks Beach. It's not the Boulevard Saint-Germain, it's Gulf Bulevard. But it's the closest you can get to both without a plane ticket. Nice bakery items, tasty café fare, and friendly service.Parking: Parking can be scarce. Your best strategy is to be lucky. Very lucky.

Quality products and service. The morning crowd can kind of kill the experience. But I would go back daily.

This is the place to go for breakfast in Indian Rocks Beach. Fun, relaxed, and amazing food. Savory Crepes, sweet crepes, croissant, and every kind of delicious French pastry you could wish for!Parking: There is parking in front and on each side of the building. The building is a sort of a strip mall place with another restaurant, a laundromat, nail salon.

If I could, I'd give this place 4.5 stars. If you want to go somewhere that has amazing food and pastries, then you have found it. It's entirely French so there are crepes, quiche, croissants, and many, many pastries/bakery goods. I'm particularly fond of the fruit tarts and the creme brulee. This place really is amazing when it comes to food! I've had good coffee here and great coffee here but it does depend on the day, never bad though. I'm betting it depends on what you get, generally I stick with lattes!The only reason I would go down half a star is due to parking restraints and seating availability. It is smaller and very popular which means that you can fight for seats in the restaurant sometimes. For parking, it is right next to beach access, and there is another parking lot next to the strip. The problem is that there are multiple restaurants who use the same parking and the beach access is filled with beach goers. It is a great location though if you want food and then a beach day!

A gem of a spot for breakfast, brunch or lunch in Indian Rocks Beach. Popular but fast moving so a bit of patience will get you a table or grab stuff to go. You can also access it from the beach easily and send someone from your group to go grab coffee and croissants and enjoy your morning on the beach. The baked goods were awesome. I had a savoury crepe that was a bit too heavy on the cheese for my taste but it may be perfect to you. I also found the salad dressing on the salad that came with the crepe to be a bit thick (I suspect it had been refrigerated overnight and the oil hadn’t had time to come to room temp - maybe ask for any dressings to be on the side). Servers were perfectly attentive and fast. Coffee was the best in the vicinity. Sad it won’t be open on our final morning in town but we will be back.Kid-friendliness: We easily managed to satisfy two 4 year olds at this place. Good and seating work for young kids. Stroller might be tough to fit inside but a spot on the outside patio would work for the stroller.

We got some pastries to go- and they were a hit! It’s a little awkward to navigate to the order location, especially since you will really want to study the cases of delectable treats. Staff was kind and efficient. We took ours to go.

Mar 2024: a touch of Europe on the beach! Good coffee options. We had large cappuccinos and that is the size I recommend. The almond croissant and coffee eclair were good options for your sweet tooth. I had a bacon and egg croissant and had it pressed for less messy eating.
Great place to get coffee and breakfast items while staying out at the beach.
