Best new breakfast place in Boulder and the owner is so nice! The food was fantastic, get the salmon crepe, the French onion soup or a quiche, so good!!! read more

See all

For the second time in the past few weeks I've stopped by just after their listed opening time (around 7:40-7:45) to be told they weren't open and it would be 'a bit' before they were ready. While I've heard their food is good, it's not good business to not be ready to open at your listed time. Especially for those of us who have to head into work. I'll amend this review if I ever get to actually try the place. read more

We absolutely LOVED this place! We came in with a big group for a birthday brunch and they were so hospitable and accommodating. The owner is from France and was delightful and the food was just as wonderful. We ordered a big sampling of the menu and it was all so good there wasn't a bite that went to waste. We tried the crepes, croissants, quiche, and baguette sandwiches, as well as latte and one of each flavor of macaron! We want to come back in the summer and sit on their beautiful deck that overlooks the Flatirons. We highly recommend it and will definitely be back again! read more

10/29/21 I'd like to add my 5++ stars to the delicious and fresh plates Le French Cafe serves and the warm and welcoming atmosphere the Agnes and Quentin Garrigou create with their love for what they do and casual neighborhood style. Agnes, as someone wrote is :..."always a delight, smiling and super friendly." Even when they are super busy, once your order is in, the service is quick!! I also want to express my gratitude for the extra trip they made back to the restaurant this past Sunday afternoon, 2 hours after closing. At around 4:30p I realized that my yellow wallet was not in any of my pockets. How I was going to get through airport security the next morning was my number one concern. Fortunately, as we were leaving Le Cafe, my daughter's boyfriend recalled a yellow wallet being carried past and heard mentions that someone had left it behind. The two pieces of information clicked and the search was on to contact the owners. My daughter and boyfriend went back to the restaurant after it closed for the day, checked with businesses close by and made posts on social media. Luckily, Agnes and Quentin (the owners) checked their messages and we were able to make contact! Thank you! Thank you for being thoughtful that someone may want to contact you sooner than Wednesday when the restaurant would open back up. And thank you for taking extra time after your long day to return to Le Cafe! I know we will all come back often! read more

Amazing crepes , coffee, and pastry. Authentic. The owners and employees are very nice. read more

So glad this was my last stop before heading home...thanks to my big sis! The food was absolutely delicious! I ordered the 3 ingredient croissant sandwich with spinich, mushroom & Swiss with a side of potatoe fries. The croissant was buttery, flakey & a huge portion. The fries lightly seasoned with sea salt & rosemary. The service was great, location clean, and it was a nice touch that the owner came by to top off our coffee, and to be sure we were happy. Definitely will plan to return on my next next visit read more

Delicious Alyce (Nutella) crepe. Happy service. Great staff attitudes here. France Amerique very large and filling. read more

Le French Cafe - French Amerique - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Boulder, Colorado

My favorite dish here is the Quiche Lorraine, but it is only ready after 10am. I also recommend their french fries which are truly outstanding. My favorite baked item is the Chocolate Croissant! read more

OMG I LOVE this place. My friend recently introduced me to Le French Cafe and I am so thankful. I've gotten the Monte Carlo sandwich with a salad the two times I've gone. It's just so good that I'm not sure I want to give up the chance to have it again just to try something new. We went for lunch today and sat out on their cute patio. I cannot wait to go back. Pretty sure I'll be dreaming of that sandwich tonight. Great service, delicious food; you won't be sorry. read more

Made it back for lunch with the Mrs. Excellent!!! Service was great and food was even better. I had an omelette and my better half had a slice of quiche. We're coming back for sure. read more

I've been here 4 times now. I like the atmosphere and the staff is friendly, but the food is just O.K. and because of that, very overpriced. The portions are very generous. The coffee is not good. I have had a different type of coffee each time that I have been there, and they have never been good. Today's was by far the weakest. In summary, this restaurant is a nice choice if you don't care that much about the taste of the food, but are looking for a good atmosphere. read more

Brought a friend along for breakfast this time. Had a delicious breakfast and met the chef Quentin. His wife Agnes always has a smile when you enter the restaurant. Good atmosphere and a gem in Boulder for delicious French Cafe food. Reminds me of the cafes that are at museums in Paris. read more

This place is legit. The ambience is cool. The proprietors are nice. It is kid friendly as well. So far I tried the crepes and the Automne salad. Both were awesome. The baguettes were tasty and the perfect balance between crisp on the outside and soft on the in. I will return many times in the future. read more

I love this place! Very cool and nothing else like it around. I love their food and their pastries/bakes goods. Would definitely recommend! read more

Le French Cafe - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Boulder, Colorado

This is such a cheerful place. The decor is so pleasant and colourful and yet not loud, perfect for a mountain town like Boulder. The menu is a simple yet delicious affair of crepes, fresh sandwiches, salads, soups, fresh pastries, coffee you name it. I love their croissant sandwiches or just a croissant and coffee. My son always goes for their ham and cheese crepe. They have small boxes of Legos and games for kids to play and my son loves it. The fresh pastries are just lip smacking and delicious. My husband loves their fresh salads with fresh cheese. Overall a win win for the whole family on a weekend morning read more

I can definitely see what all the hype is about! The food was delicious and the staff are all very nice and attentive. The croissants are especially delicious (try the chocolate almond!) Best part? No wait for Sunday Brunch! I'll be back, can't wait to try their sandwiches and French onion soup. read more

Amazing food, coffee, pastries. The owner makes me melt with her sweeetness and sincere genuineness. Awesome vibe!

Pleasantly surprised to find this new little French gem of a cafe and onsite bakery tucked away off Arapaho. Fresh baked macaroons and croissants on the menu. Looks like a great lunch spot as well (next time). Bonsoir! read more

So good! The food is consistently excellent and the staff are always nice. Total hidden gem

Incredibly tasty food. The owners are very friendly and are incredibly eager to please their customers. The place is well decorated and immaculate. They even hooked us up with free macaroons for the "long" wait for our food -- which was like 10 minutes, totally reasonable for a sit down place. Macaroons were on point! Well done Le French Cafe. The Croque Madame was delicious. Given that a Croque Madame involves some pretty heavy ingredients (cheese, butter, egg), Le French Cafe prepares their's in a way that doesn't make you feel like a huge piece of shit afterwards. My co-workers all got sandwiches. We all have a sentiment that the bread is 90% of the battle in a sandwich and Le French Cafe uses great bread. Crispy exterior and soft on the inside...mmmm This place just opened up in the place where "The Cheese Course" used to be. If you know where the Rincon Argentino is, it's right next door. Support this business because we need more international food in Boulder! read more

The Nutella, strawberries and cream Crepe was the best I've had in a long time. Really nice staff and great atmosphere. Stay away from the wheaty crepe though, it's terrible, go for white flour only. read more

We walked in and was greeted nicely by a young man, who ended up not being our waiter. Our waiter came and asked us our drink order, and he did not come back for quite some time. We had to wave him down for him to come and take our order. One of my friends ordered 2 chocolate croissants and they were rock hard so she asked for them to be heated up so they are softer and they looked at her as if she was crazy. We had to ask another person for more water because our waiter was behind the counter eating. The woman (maybe the owner or something) was coming out and checking on tables and touching stuff, NEVER washed her hands, and went back to preparing the plates to come out. The food was delicious but the service we received as tourists was not acceptable, at all. read more

Don't waste your money or time. The chocolate croissant was ok, the brunch was barely ok and the service was bad! We went on Mother's Day, sat down and waited 15 minutes before asking if someone would help us. Food came out at the same time, which according to our waitress was amazing, however all but one dish was cold. read more

Finally tried this place after hearing so many good things. Went with the family for breakfast and we were all mightily impressed. I had the quiche Lorraine, which was honestly better than I've had in Paris. We also had an omelette and crepes with Nutella, and chocolate almond croissants. All amazing! This place is fantastic and I will be back for sure. read more

My wife and I had high hopes for this restaurant based on the reviews given it looked to be quite good but that was not our experience. We both ordered the Nicoise Salad. What we got a bowl full of finely chopped lettuce with and overwhelming amount of olives topped with some cheap canned tuna. There is a proper presentation to a Nicoise Salad but this version was a mash up of the ingredients I assume to disguise the low quality. To make matters worse the waitress spilled the salad dressing all over my wife's lap. Yes I understand accidents happen and she did comp my wife's salad which was the right thing to do but it left us with a bad feeling and we won't be coming back to try again. read more

The place looks pleasant. I didn't eat any of the food but the pastries looked delicious. I got a latte and my friend got a cappuccino. Probably one of the worst I've tasted. Doesn't seem they have a barrista, must be via machine. I dot recommend getting coffee here. Other than that I didn't have any issues. read more

I also had high hopes for this spot, but after several visits since it's opening, I doubt I'll come back. This time - at 10 a.m. on a Sunday - the waiter told us flatly there would be no crepes for 45 minutes. No explanation, no apologies. Hmmm...ok. The ham and Swiss croissant with bechamel came not fluffy and flakey but chewy everywhere but the bottom, which was oddly soggy. I couldn't find the bechamel. The omelet is not folded over but comes out baked & flat like a frittata. The formerly cubed yet always cold potatoes came out this time as overdone cold fries. The owner is charming, but the experience is not worth the prices. read more

This place is fantastic. Great coffee and the very best almond croissant I've ever tasted!! Agnes, the owner, was very enthusiastic and happy to chat about the food and the cafe. This gem is tucked away but we are definitely going to make it a regular spot and bring friends from out of town!! A real find in Boulder. read more

I LOVE THIS PLACE! I am super impressed! First of all the food is AMAZING! I first tried The Croque Madame sandwich with toasted ham and cheese, a sunny-side up egg and Bechamel sauce.....So TASTY! I also love the sandwiches, omelets and crepes. The owners Agnes and Quentin are so cheerful and welcoming ....They made me feel like family on my first visit. The ambiance is warm and inviting. I love all of the visual references to Paris and the French lifestyle. Le French Cafe provides marvelously authentic fare and impeccable service at more than reasonable prices. Everyone from the French-cuisine newcomer to the most ardent Francophile will find cause for celebration here! read more

The food was incredible. I got a crepe and it was wonderful, tasted very authentic. The woman (who I am assuming owns the store) had great energy and made the experience wonderful. All of the staff as well were very attentive and helpful. Overall, I highly recommend. One of my favorite brunch places in Boulder. read more

Such a cute stop for drinks, breakfast and lunch! The owner was SO personable and helpful. The food was delicious and our mimosa was refreshing. Definitely will be returning soon!!! read more

first time coming here. Super friendly staff and great food! We had excellent service and the coffee was amazing too.

How long does it take to make a sandwich? I decided to go to this place over lunch, and I saw the place was busy so I proceed to find a table for me. I got there at 1:15 pm and no trace from my order at 1:45 pm. I decided to walk to the serving station and ask for my order to go. I was so disappointed by this place. I would advised to the manager/owner to put an extra waitress and to upgrade the kitchen. I hope this can help this place to improve. read more

This is exactly what Boulder has been missing! Outstanding- will be a regular stop! Get the baguettes- wow! read more

charming little french eatery. went for brunch and even though there was a line out the door, it moved quickly. the owner was delightful and the staff was friendly. many delicious pastries, sandwiches and the quiche with ham, mushrooms and swiss cheese was so rich and filling, so good. if there is a line, this place is worth the wait. read more

So happy that we happen to come across this authentic French owned business after a short hike. The croissants were fresh - flakey on the outside yet soft and airy on the inside. My daughter said her Nutella and strawberry crepe was delicious. My smoked salmon croissant sandwich and salad was fresh and tasty. My son ate his entire ham and cheese sandwich and the potatoes were perfectly seasoned. Excellent customer service! This will be a regular place for us to eat at when we visit Boulder. read more

This is a friendly, welcoming space that really enjoys serving people. This was my second visit. I had an omelet and coffee. The food was tasty, the service was very good. Check this place out. I think that you will like it! Rog read more

We came on a hectic day and there was no quiche available for 20 min and they were a gem about it. We enjoyed crepes and omelette instead on the lovely patio and will plan to go back. Attentive service read more

Ok this place was hard to find for me (it's just across the street, west of Woodgrain Bagels, & just north of an empanada place). This place is so great! The people there were super welcoming and the inside + outside space were both lovely and well decorated. The food was good too! I had the Avignon Baguette Sandwich and it was great! The "potatoes" it came with are very nicely seasoned fresh fries. The sandwich itself was delicious. My only complaint was that there was a bit too much olive oil on the sandwich, but nothing overwhelming. The black tea I ordered was also presented nicely. Overall, I recommend you try this place for breakfast/brunch/lunch! read more
