This spot deserves my extra 1 star. Every time we stop by, always the friendliest customer service. I don't only come here for macarons, meringue, truffles but ofc lattes. They would come out with seasonal flavors worth trying. And I have to say not as expensive as others for about $6 instead $8-9 for specialty latte? Yep I'm there and ofc last but not least pupcup for my pup :).
If you love macarons, this is a lovely place to come to try a large variety of fresh, soft macarons in a pleasant environment. We got a box of six for $21 ($19 plus tax): * raspberry - nice raspberry filling inside - lemon - could barely taste lemon, skip unless they increase the lemon flavor * orange ginger - no real ginger flavor but a nice subtle orange flavor * red velvet - not too sweet, it was pleasant * mint-white chocolate - nice mint flavor * pistachio - great pistachio flavor - get several if you love pistachio! There were a lot more wonderful flavors. We got coffee au laits to go with the macarons and sat several hours talking. We appreciate not being felt like we needed to hurry and leave, and the tables were clean. Bathroom for customers.
I was in Gaithersburg at the Rio town center for the day and I stumbled across this cute little colorful shop. I'm not a big sweets fan but the colorful store grabbed my attention. Omg the chocolates were too cute.... The cashier was welcoming, very helpful, friendly and patient. All of the chocolates were very different creative and it was very hard to choose, however I settled on 5 different selections. There was no wait time, the store was very clean and all of the chocolates I purchased were great. Other options are available, not only chocolates. They have the cutest macarons in all sorts of colors however I didn't try any of those this visit. They also have cake, ice cream/Sorbet and even a few souvenirs available for purchase as well. I would recommend stopping by and giving this place a try if you're in the area, or in need of a sweet treat.
I thought this location was just okay. It's clean and the service was fine but the gelato wasn't as creamy as you'd expect and all of the macarons looked lumpy. I expect better from professionals I guess. The chocolates were also just okay, couldn't even taste the passion fruit in the chocolate I got.
I happened to be in the vicinity of this shop one weekend and decided to stop by. I have had many a macaron before from other places and decided to try one here. Before my visit, I didn't know they also sold other items like gelato, chocolates and hot & iced drinks. There is seating in the shop - just a few tables and chairs. I like that you can have tastes of gelato, but just a few as there is a limit. When it comes to getting gelato, a small is 1 scoop, a regular is 2 scoops, and a large is 3 scoops. Here is what I ordered: A regular gelato and a macaron. I had the option of getting two different flavors for the gelato for my two scoops, so I had (1) Mint flavor and (2) Almond Macaron flavor. The macaron I got was Tiramisu and it wasn't until I was at the register that I found out if it were added to my gelato, I would get it for $2 which is a discount for the price of one, so I opted for that (why not). I was able to get a seat and proceeded to try what I ordered. I enjoyed the gelato, especially the Almond Macaron flavor - that was so delicious that I will get it again. As for the Tiramisu macaron, I was disappointed as it was so soft when I bit into it. I did not want to eat any more of that - maybe it wasn't made well. The service was good and helpful. Overall experience 3.5 stars. Visited June 2024
Le Macaron in Rio is such a fun and adorable spot! The atmosphere is bright and welcoming, and the treats are absolutely delightful looking. I bought some local honey from the girl working there and she was a true gem, friendly, kind, and made the visit even sweeter. I will definitely be coming back!
Cute sweets shop. Only tried some macarons but very yummy! Definitely love the pistachio macaron! Will have to try their ice cream next time. Macarons are about $4 for one tho so it's a bit pricey.
Macarons are one of my favorite desserts but to have a standard size cost $3.15 is insane. I have a friend who runs a macaron business that sells it for less. So because of the prices, I opted in gelato instead. The violet flavor tasted nice but I was craving chocolate so I went with cookies n cream. Service is great, we were helped immediately when he entered the store. It was pretty empty though with several seats available. They have a cute selfie wall with greenery and neon signs for pictures.
Le Macaron French Pastries is a wonderful bakery for those of us with killer sweet tooth's. They have a variety of macarons, it was hard to choose. I picked raspberry, chocolate praline, and strawberry. There were a rainbow of choices that included mango, blueberry, coconut, birthday cake and so many more. My macarons were crunchy on the outside and filled with luscious tasty fillings. And, yes, I asked, they are only 70 calories each. It was worth every bite. Then, there are artisanal chocolates that were just beautiful. If you travel down the aisle, the end case has a cool creamy assortment of gelato's. In addition, there were beignets, eclairs, and other sweets. The service was top notch and I enjoyed talking with the staff working today. There are a few tables and chairs for those that want to sit and eat their treats in the store. The bakery has only been there for a couple of months. I will certainly be back for more sweet indulgences.
4.3.24 I'm not a fan of macarons, but came by with a colleague to check out their pastries. Surprisingly it was limited to just eclairs, croissants (chocolate or almond), beignets (chocolate or berry), or tarts. They also sell chocolate candy and gelato. I decided on an almond croissant and chocolate beignets for my husband. We took our pastries to go. The croissant was delicious. I got my husband three chocolate beignets, but the associate inadvertently gave a berry one. My hubby said the berry one was better than the chocolate. I took a bite of the chocolate. It was fine, but I definitely have had better. My colleague got a Columbian coffee macaron which she says was good. The flavor combo of basil white chocolate was not her favorite. The sales associate was friendly and helpful with questions I asked. The shop has a few seats. There is a cute backdrop that says good vibes only which is great for selfies. A parking garage is conveniently located along the same side as the shop. Given their limited menu I am unlikely to return not to say there was anything bad with my visit.
As we were walking around the Rio, we bought this on a whim. I was going to visit a friend, so I bought 6 to bring and share. The store is cute and the staff is friendly. I think $3.15/macaron or 6 for 18, it's pretty pricey. However, these are too complicated for me to make at home, so it's a nice splurge item. I found most of them to be fairly meh and indistinct in flavor. My favorite by far was the pistachio, followed by the vanilla. The others I tried, red velvet and tiramisu were just okay. I might still buy a box as a hostess gift, but I wouldn't be pulled back for myself. Life is short and there are too many dessert items to spend the calories on just fine.
This place is really cute I'll be back to try the gelato in the summer. I tried the coffee and macarons this time. The macarons are really good they taste much more authentic so the flavor is subtle and the outer layer is flaky. The coffee was pretty standard, I got a vanilla latte and appreciate they have almond milk. The lady who took our order was really nice and friendly and we were greeted with big smiles when we walked in. The eclairs low key caught my eye though, so imma need to go back and try some or all of them lol.
We visited Le Macaron per a suggestion by sister. My daughter was happy with the macarons and I the gelato. That day, they had a sample of macaron (which my daughter got). Also-before selecting, you are able to sample the gelato or sorbet. We will very certainly return :-)

This place is adorable. The colors and decor are so cheerful. I'm not the biggest fan of macarons but my husband and I wanted coffee and we decided to get macarons at the same time. My oat milk latte was good. I got six different macarons. Honestly, they all taste like sugar. It's difficult to pinpoint what flavors theyre supposed to be. Maybe my macaroni palate isnt refined enough, but I'll stick to their coffee next time. read more

Came here to see what the hype was about. The staff was all very inviting and friendly. They had some samples which were all very good. The prices of the Macarons is high at $3 and change per macaron. I stepped in with two little kids and got 6 macarons. Of course the kids ate them quickly and didn't appreciate the flavors and textures. It sort of kills you inside. These macarons are good quality and would make a great quick gift for any appreciative adult. read more

Just opened on Monday so I popped in for a few pastries for the family. I got the recommended lychee raspberry tart and the Napoleon. Both are good but I found the Napoleon's custard a tad too sweet and rich. Overall, everyone was super nice and it was very clean inside. They also have a wide variety of macarons. read more

Taste tested three gelato flavors - two of them were freezer burned and crystallized. The server had to work hard to even pull a scoop - something that shouldn't happen with a gelato. The macaron that we got (key lime/strawberry) was very good but not worth the ridiculous $3.15 price tag. A dozen for $35?!? Would I choose Le Macaron over the Mochi Doughnut place or Fantasticks? No way. read more

It's very exciting to have a cute little cafe at Rio! The place was pretty and makes a good impression when you walk in. We tried the gelato, coffee and macarons. The macarons were cakey and tasted more like almond than any of the flavors we tried. I ordered an affogato and was not expecting it to be served in a bowl type paper cup; the gelato was not silky smooth as gelato ought to be and did not melt with the shot of espresso. Moving past the way it was served, the taste was okay. There were 2 people behind the counter, but only one was helping and getting everyone's orders ready. They only recently opened, so I'm hopeful they will make positive changes to grow their business! I look forward to visiting again. read more
