Bottom line is good food, good service French food. Le Chantilly has been here for quite some time. They have a lot of regular customers. My hubby and I stopped in for breakfast. We both had the quiche. I had spinach and he had Lorraine. Both were very good. We also had cherry and apple strudel and goodies to go. Both yummy. Of course we always split everything so we can try new things. Definitely worth the trip. read more

Just amazing food that is literally out of this world fresh A Small sitting area behind the counters allows you to sit and enjoy with friends your tea and delicacy I think this place is one of the more expensive in Albuquerque ( I just spent $21.42 for a half dozen raspberry almond cookies) but there is no question. There was nothing but value here ! I particularly like the assortment of small assortment of greeting cards and note cards Everything is extremely tasteful here from the baked goods to the strudels to the greeting cards, read more

I love stopping in here to grab a coffee when I can! I use to hang out and read, the inside use to look alot different with high tops and couch options but they've changed the layout in recent months! I love coming in early before people have managed to take all the snacks! The people who work here are always friendly and nice. There's a girl there who always remembers what I get. Super cute! Stop by if you get a chance. read more

Le Chantilly - Bakeries Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

Good service. Basic ambiance. Simple tables. Basic counter. Sandwiches. Limited pastries. Coffee bar. I had a sandwich. It was good but small. I looked for pastries but none of my favorites were represented. Somehow I expect a lot more from a French place. Next time I'll probably just get doughnuts. read more

We stopped here on a whim while travelling thru Abq. We were craving a dessert and we thought this would be a great place to get something sweet. As soon as we walked in, a man approached us asking for change. We did not have any and asked him if he wanted a sandwich. He asked for 2 eclairs, which looked wonderful. While we were waiting to order and pay, an employee approached us and upon finding out we were buying a homeless person a treat, she shook her head "no" and started on this "they have a website where they share locations and restaurants where customers will buy them food". We were so taken back by her unwillingness to let us purchase a treat for a person in need we decided to not buy anything and walked out. Aside from the eclairs, we were looking at some of their cakes and strudels. But I guess lacking humanity cost them a rather good sale. We get the point behind her not wanting us to buy that man a treat, but also, humiliating us in the middle of the store was not a good idea. I would not recommend, and will not give this place a second chance. read more

I waited about 7 minutes for the two ladies to finish with the customers in front of me and then waited for at least another 5 minutes, being the only customer there and also being totally ignored. read more

Always wonderful! A Neighborhood staple. The food is amazing, and I've never had anything I didn't like.

I would suggest that you add another cash register or mobile cashier devices like toast. You might be able to get along better with fewer people, if you eliminate the cash register bottleneck. read more

I visited the bakery in the summer and, for the most part, it was ok. We had sandwiches which, a tad overpriced but still decent. Visited again on 2/17 and it was a bit disappointing. They close early on Mondays so you're not going to find a large selection of pastries. So, no Breslin for me that day. The roast beef sandwich was dry and very basic (meaning I could have made it myself in my own kitchen with more bells and whistles). No pickle, no lettuce, no tomato... not even Rye bread (they were out). I had to ask for mustard so I could get it down. Also, one of the servers was hacking up a lung in the area where the sandwiches were being made so, we had to move to these cute but uncomfortable princess type table and chairs. Maybe not have sick or respiratory challenged workers near the food. My take: Monday, Monday, can't trust that day at Le Chantilly. Try another day. read more

I have been coming here since I was a child and have never had a bad experience. My favorite thing is the green chili egg and cheese stuffed croissant, it is to die for. All their other pastries are very good as well! Definitely one of my all time favorite bakeries if not my absolute favorite! read more

Le Chantilly is by far the best bakery in all of Albuquerque! I had ordered my birthday cake from here, but because it was initially close to Thanksgiving they weren't able to do the design I wanted (which to be fair was somewhat complicated). But then they gave me a great birthday surprise by doing the design! And best of all it was also a delicious cake. They went above and beyond, and their extra effort has turned me into a loyal customer. You can't get service like this at a big chain! Thank you Le Chantilly bakery, I'm eternally grateful! read more

Absolutely fantastic! Great ambiance and friendly, attentive staff. All of us out for a birthday celebration and all cakes were guys. Will be back soon...have my eye on an eclair read more

These folks came through with flying colors making fruit tarts for a friend who's allergic to everything, it seems. Ordering process was smooth, easy, & professionally handled. They were ready when promised and got rave reviews from the recipient. A job very well done! While scouting bakeries for the tarts, I grabbed a chocolate croissant & a cup of coffee to enjoy in the delightfully lovely interior of this bakery/bistro. The coffee had excellent flavor & sufficient caffeine to carry me through my morning. However, in spite of having nice flavor, one demerit for the croissant being a tad dry and semi-tough. It took a fair bit of sawing with the dinner knife to get through the bottom layer of the pastry. A disappointment given that croissants are the touchmark of a French bakery. As noted, the staff here is friendly and engaging. I've gotten nothing but great customer service from the staff. To me, the wall mural is pretty enough to justify a trip here all by itself. It's just a lovely spot for a sit-down & chat over coffee & treats. read more

Cute little place. I went to try the pastries, even though I thought the prices seemed high. I paid just under $8 with tax for 1 pecan roll and 1 blueberry cheese Danish. That is nearly $4 each. These items were good, but they did not stand out as delicious. I thought I might buy a whole strudel for $15 but they were on the small side. In Chicago, where I am from, I can get a larger whole strudel for half the price. I doubt if I will go back for pastries, but I might try their food options. I can get pastries that are just as good elsewhere for less. Their coffee and food prices seem more reasonable than their pastry prices. read more

I love Le Chantilly. Their tride and trued when it comes to fine baked goodies. I love the pumpkin muffins and various other Halloween items. Cute window display and bar plus tables and chairs and benches oh my. There's something to satisfy your sweet or savory baked good tooth. Can't wait to see what the future holds for this bakery/Café founded in 1974. Wow. That's older than me. He he. read more

I've been looking forward to this place for a while. I went in with my friend last o celebrate my birthday. I ordered the French taco and it was delicious. The waiter said as so helpful and sweet he made me feel comfortable asking for a menu due to my visual impairment. My friend paid for our meal and I decided to stay behind and buy myself and my father a pastry. I was rung up and the cashier said it was the eclair and the other pastry and the breakfast. I told her no not the breakfast that my friend has already paid for it and she said okay. Then she proceeded to raise her voice at the water and go attended my friend and I " Did she pay for the he breakfast?!". I understand why she did I just to make sure it was paid for but she could've done more discretely. It just left me feeling uncomfortable. read more

Le Chantilly - The amazing view - Bakeries Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

OVERCHARGED We have eaten here about a dozen times, usually pleased; seems like it has gone downhill lately, not the same place anymore. We came in one week ago. I ordered a quiche with an added side salad https://gyazo.com/45d7b4423e9c418e23b51fa35555cdcf and hot tea. My wife had coffee a sandwich and an added side salad. Afterward we split a dessert. Total came to about $20. Today came in and ordered a quiche with an added side salad (pointed at a the section in the menu that said the add on was available for $2.50) and hot tea, my wife had coffee, a sandwich and an added side salad (pointed at the combo in the menu https://gyazo.com/6ef9c5f2788dea44d3aa01503dd2a894 ). Afterward we split a dessert. Total came to $30. Waitress charged us for a quiche a la carte and a full charge for a salad and a sandwich a la carte and full charge for a salad. Same meal $20 one week, $30 the next. Not coming back. Life is too short. read more

The food here is amazing. The butter rum cookies are awesome. Iced cookies, palmiers. Everything is just so good. The only thing is the decor/atmosphere could use some work. Feels a little like an old cafeteria. read more

This place has been around for many years, use to be thee Bakery of the Q.......not so much now when it comes to the quality of their pastries and it's a hit or miss with service. It's sad as the beautiful wall murals really create a nice ambiance. We ordered a Chocolate Croissant that had to be at least 2 days old, as it was very dry and not the fresh & fluffy texture that a Croissant should exhibit. I have ordered fresh made to order Pumpkin Cheesecake Rolls or Carrot cakes during the holidays that have come out lovely so I know they have the ability to produce good treats. I really hope the owners take the time to read current feedback as this place has still great potential like it did when it was in its prime. read more

Yummmm.... my sweet tooth is lovin' the yelp app on my iPhone! Once again, I found another gem thanks to yelp. I arrived close to closing on a Saturday evening -- appreciated having the hours listed on the app. When I arrived things were slowly starting to wind down, and there was one customer inside enjoying their coffee. But there were soooo many delicious looking pastries - - how would I be able to decide?? I ended up choosing the Marquise de ville and one of their "homemade oreo" cookies. Both... amazing - - but the Marquise de ville was seriously, seriously good! It was a squared layered cake with chocolate and hazelnut flavors, frostings... nuts.. oh my gosh, so good! And friendly service! read more

I am a covid-19 bride and had paid Le Chantilly to do our wedding cake in full last year. I appreciate how understanding Laura is and that she offered us a full refund. The cakes we sampled were delicious and I can't wait till we visit ABQ to get some more of their sugar cookies. My fiance's parents had their cake made here in the 1980's so if a place has lasted THAT long you know its good. Their cake was the hit if the wedding. Thank you! read more

The worst bakery I've been to in NM. I'll never go back. Service: The people behind the counter were rude and had a sort of confrontational tone about everything. One of the employees sneezed right onto food she was handling and still put it out for sale. We didn't get everything we paid for. Food: The cake was not sweet at all and had a sandy texture that I think was freezer burn. The "frosting" was raspberry jelly. From a jar. We ended up throwing it out. Not much value for $40. The buns were OK, editable at least. I can't think of any positive aspect of our experience. Overall you can do a lot better in Albuquerque. read more

We have been going there for years and always been very happy. The food is still good but the customer service hasn't been as good. This last visit will be our last.. I went in on a Tuesday and order 2 cakes to pick up on Friday. When I went to go pick them up on Friday I found out the cakes weren't ready because the lady who took my order had written down the wrong daye. I explained that I had driven from the other side of this city for these cakes. I asked the girl who was helping me how we were going to make this right. Her response was I don't know. She checked with the Baker and found out that the cakes could be ready in an hour. I said it seemed like my 2 options were to either hang out for an hour or drive home and turn around and drive back. She asked if I had some errands I could run and I said no. She asked if I wanted to you stay and eat something to which I also replied no . I said never mind and I would figure out something else and left.. I am very disappointed that they didn't even try to fix the situation at all.. Very disappointing!! read more

One of the only truly amazing bakeries left in Albuquerque. No doughnuts but the pastries, quiches, and cookies etc are top notch. Wrapped goodies available for gifts or home. Coffee is pretty good; gets the job done. Coffee beans/grinds ready to take as well. Small/medium dining area with an outstanding mural. read more

I've been to this bakery/cafe several times, but it's always been in the afternoon, and there's not that many items left. I've had the brownies, and they were good. I was able to make it in early today, and was able to take a tasty breakfast home. I bought several things to share with my parents. I got a "French taco." It was a croissant pastry filled with ground beef, onions, and green chiles. I also got a turkey, cheese and green chile croissant. And lastly, I got a slice of the quiche lorraine. I was afraid that they were going to be dry and hard, but a minute and a half in the microwave, and I had a delicious breakfast. Everything was soft, fresh, and very tasty! I think I'll try one of their take home dinners next time I'm in the area! read more

This place has some wonderful pastries - napoleons, eclairs, and very pretty looking croissants. It is expensive, and the people at the counter seem unenthusiastic. I purchased some treats as a gift and asked if they had a label, a ribbon or ...something ...to put on the box. I'd spent thirty dollars on the gift. They had no business cards and no way to 'decorate' a box (like a colored rubber band, etc.) It lacks a professional touch and the business doesn't seem loved or nurtured. read more

I love this place, have been eating their pastries since I moved to New Mexico in 2006. I order almost every week because my family loves this place. I highly recommend it to anyone who loves to have coffee and pastries or brunch in a cute family oriented place with lovely people who work here. I love Terry, who has been there for so long, she's amazing! This place truly feels like you are loved and appreciated every time you go there. Let's continue to help small businesses, they create jobs and are the best places in town! read more

We have now gone to Le Chantilly twice, and both times were very disappointed. First time we went the food was good enough, but the service SUCKED. No other way to put it. We thought maybe it was because they were busy or short handed, but that wasn't the case as we recollected on this last visit today. The same thing happened today as on our last visit. However, this time we didn't stand for it and left before ordering. Upon arrival into the store we did not get any greeting from the two servers behind the counter. Another guest came in behind us and they greeted her - strike 1. We had to acknowledge the server in order to find out we can sit wherever we pleased. We chose the counter. The server asked what we would like to drink - I ordered. The server was not sure if they were out of one drink we ordered and walked away - NEVER TO RETURN. We glanced at the menu, and glanced, and glanced hoping someone would come back to us to take our order - or heck, just bring our drinks. Nothing. An older gentleman (who from the servers joyful greetings was a regular) sat at the bar. The one server who took our drinks engaged him and told him they only had one danish left. He then proceeded to order. The server walked away and another server walked up to the gentleman, gave him silverware and proceeded to get his order - ALL THE WHILE NO ONE SPOKE TO US. My recommendation - unless your over the age of 60 and come into Le Chantilly regularly - AVOID AT ALL COSTS. read more

3 star is being generous here... had to agree with my Yelp friend Bella; I so hope the owner ask for current feedbacks from customers and take a look at the finished baked goods. I only come here because my fav place for a decent croissant (La Quiche P.) does not open till 8am daily... and Le Chantilly is on my Saturday 8am Pilates teaching route. As a constant reader of Yelp reviews, it's a warning sign when I don't see a stream of chronological, up-to-date good, would recommend kind of reviews. When I first visited, I was optimistic, wanting to support local biz... the croissants and croissant cousins all look over baked with brown-colored rather than golden buttery crust. I felt that I was picky when I tried to eye a not-so-burnt croissant. The cookies weren't that great that I'd buy again. When those 2 staples failed my expectation, I naturally don't have any desire to try the cake looking stuff. I'm afraid I was going to be disappointed, too. Service has been good based on all take-out visits. I have not dined in, so no experience to comment there. read more

Ordered a special birthday cake with vanilla cake and strawberries. Not too complicated. The cake was terrible and tasted hard and stale from the freezer. The frosting was old and the "strawberries" consisted of strawberry jam from a cheap jar of jelly. The cake cost $45 without telling us the price before hand. As we were paying for the cake one of the cashiers sneezed all over the cake. Never ever going back. Go to Albertsons instead. Much better cake and better prices too. read more

Very french! Delicious baked goods up front, casual dining room in the back - tea house style. Server seemed new and made many mistakes but food arrived timely. A couple employees chatting behind counter while customers waited to be served. It was super warm in there on a hot summer day. Baked goods are kinda pricey but I will surely be back for them ! read more
