Positive aspects of the product (pros): Ooo la la! wonderful pastries Cons: Lines can be long and slow moving
We love this bakery for a quick snack of pastry and coffee. The chocolate cake is moist, dense, and heavenly. The lemon tarts can be hit or miss - at times the meringue can grainy with sugar. The fruit tarts are beautiful, and taste as good as they look. You can also get quick sandwiches here.
This is worth a special trip - make time to stop by!

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Quality of food Cons: Lack of seating
The food here is great -- a ham and cheese croissant and a chocolate mousse is just about the perfect meal for me! There is a limited amount of seating, so be flexible and willing to wander a little bit from the patisserie. Even if the line appears long, it moves quickly and the food is worth the wait.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Excellent Pastries Cons: Small Shop, Very Constricted when busy!
The quality of the food here is top notch. It's excellent, almost authentic tasting French pastry & bakery products.
But, this shop is very small, with two counters -- one on each side -- and two lines. Once you get in line, you're basically stuck there. Try to just send one person in if you have a large group & know what you want.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): pastries, need I say more? Cons: virtually no seating
What can I say? It's French pastry! If you gave this place less than a 10 then you haven't been there enough times. Everything is fabulous here and the only negative is that there are only a few tables outside so finding a place to eat your delicious pastries can be an issue. Try the strawberry cake.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): pastries Cons: long line at times
This is a great place to get a sweet treat and a cup of mediocre coffee. We have also tried the fruit and cheese plate and it was so-so. The cheese and fruit were good but the bread was stale and almost inedible.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): everything is delicious! Cons: very crowded
there is a good reason the line for this pastry shop is always out the door! Everything is pretty tasty and the atmosphere is wonderful... I have grabbed a chocolate mousse late in the evening and then sat down outside at a table and just enjoyed the surroundings. I have also heard that the ham and cheese croissant is a great value and very good, though I have never had one myself. Being a lover of all things French (and hopefully going there someday) eating here gives me a little taste, so to speak, of that experience!

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Awesome stuff Cons: Limited seating
Had a croissant and a raspberry schuss on Aug 15. The croissant was excellent, light flaky and buttery. The dessert was a dark chocolate bottom with a lemon cake, light cream and raspberry gelee on the top...it was incredible. Add in 2 Grey Goose Slushies and it was the perfect lunch for me!

Positive aspects of the product (pros): pastry Cons: staff
This is one of our favorite stops. We usually arrive just as it opens. The staff are rarely friendly, but the pastry is great! I like the ham & cheese and the berry and pear tarts. The portions are small but we still get a variety and share.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Decent service, yummy pastries, beautiful atmosphere Cons: YUMMY IN MY TUMMY!
The staff were quick, efficient, and not rude. I have to say, I was expecting some nasty service after reading some of the reviews. My mom had a coffee and nid d'abeille (a pastry shaped like a cannoli with a napoleon filling). She wasn't amazed by it, but she said it was good. I had a napoleon for the first time, I loved it. The filling was like a sweeter whipped cream sandwiched between filo dough with confectioner's sugar sprinkled on top. It was satisfying and the perfect size. My favorite part was sitting outside and looking around "Paris." Definitely one of my fondest memories of the trip.

BEST SNACK VALUE ON DINING PLAN BAR NONE
My 12 year old daughter has told everyone about the best desert she ever ate from ther e- being a lemon tart done the way it is done on Frnace. Exception place to get your snack orders.
We went to go back 1 other time but line up is a little long. Highly recomend waiting atleast once - your bellies will thank you.
Also huge vairety for the snack plan.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): tasty, lines move quickly, variety, snack credits Cons: very small inside
My husband and I stopped in here on our last night for a quick pastry, May 14, 2010. Luckily they stay open for extra magic hours so we were able to get in past 9pm. They also have to-go boxes if you don't want to eat it right then. The line started right outside the door but it moved rather quickly and they function from both sides, of course with the same selections on both. My husband got a chocolate eclair which he thought was excellent. I opted for a napoleon after hearing great things and after discovering a "coconut pyramid" is simply a bundle of 3 macaroons (disappointed by that!). I saved it for later since I was still full from dinner. When I dug in it was great! A thick, sweet, custardy whipped filling in between layers of phylo dough with a good layer of confectioners sugar on the top. I could only finish about half of it but did eat all of the flaky layers. Very good use of a snack credit if you're on the dining plan!

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Napolean and eclairs good! Cons: Iced cappucino-yeck!
We were really excited to go here bc of all the great reviews. We got there at opening (which may have been a bad idea) Two of my daughters split an eclair and loved it! Another daughter got creme brulee and it was frozen on the inside so she ate along the edges and said it was good. I had a napolean which was really good, not amazing but very good. Biggest let down was the iced cappucino which we got bc it was hot out. It was horrrible. I think maybe it was soured, and I probably should have taken it back and said something but the staff wasn't exactly receptive so I let it go. Our visit here was a little disappointing, but maybe if we had tried something else it would have been better. Other than the sour cappucino and frozen parts of the brulee, it was good.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Selections, cost, atmosphere Cons: None
Love this place. We use the DDP snacks for just about everything so really our cost is typically $0.
Love to get a few bakery items and sit out on the tabled patio. Its like a real french cafe area here. Its one of those places where we always stop.
Highly recommended. Chocolate eclair was especially good!

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Selection, quality, flavor, service Cons: Seating
It was a great, tasty treat. Everyone loved their treats, everything tasted fantastic. There was a wide selection of items, and it was fun tasting everyone's treats. The only con is there was very little seating, and we kind of had to dash to get a table that opened up.

It is not a trip to Epcot without an eclair from France! As a girl who is happy eat pastries and sweets as a meal, I love this place. Too bad the coffee is horrid Nescafe garbage. One of these eclairs paired with a real latte would be a dream come true!!
