Food always good. We even order delivered and like it almost as much. Our "service" at home is slow, but just how we like it (lol).

Here's a more polished version that keeps your opinion and frustration intact without sounding over-the-top: I had one of the most forgettable breakfasts I've ever had here. I ordered the brioche breakfast sandwich with added bacon, and it was completely lacking in flavor. It was severely underseasoned, and the texture was just soft and mushy with very little contrast or anything memorable. Unfortunately, there wasn't a single redeeming quality to the sandwich. My strawberry matcha was equally disappointing. It mostly tasted like plain milk, with one faint sip of strawberry and virtually no matcha flavor at all. Either they're using far too little matcha or the quality is simply poor. To top it off, the chocolate almond croissant tasted stale and was just as underwhelming as everything else. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this place--especially considering the prices. McDonald's would've been a better option. read more

We used to love this place so so much (and left five star reviews on a number of locations in the LA area), we went almost every week. I have no idea what happened, but there must have been some change in direction - and not the right one. The good: the food is still delicious. And the ambiance is still nice. Sadly, on our visit yesterday, everything went wrong. We took to friends who had never been and they looked at us "really?" Their coffee was cold, replacement never came. I got my breakfast - and they others got it - no exaggeration - one hour later. In the two hours we spent there, we had four contacts with service: 1Order the food (no host available, it was a chaos). 2 Go the drinks and my (and mine only breakfast). Instantly complained about cold coffee. 3 The others got the breakfast, asked for the hot coffee, which never came. I ordered another Cappuccino, which never came. 4 We had to fight for the waiter's attention to get the check. C'mon guys, you gotta be kidding me. You sure lost us for good. A shame really. read more

Mediocre service, servers are slow and have attitude!!! Food was alright No repeat for me Don't recommend Also they are very cheap and don't validate the parking read more

We've been to this location many many times and always look forward to going back. The food is excellent and the staff have always been kind and warm. We really like the fact that they have an outdoor patio that's not right on the street and its location at the Americana allows us to do other things after a nice brunch. The food is fresh and consistent. read more

I have mixed feelings about this Le Pain location. I have been to other locations and had a very pleasant experience. This time was not a great one. Older lady I guess is the manager was not friendly at all. She didn't even greet us, she just pointed out to a table and left the menus on the table. We had to wait at least 10 to 15 minutes for somebody to take our order. Finally, somebody came over and took our order. It took a while to get our order that's another story. Maybe they were understaffed that day that's why there were hiccups in the customer service. Also, it took forever to get our bill too. I had to call someone to ask for our bill. For food, I can say all the pastries we ordered tasted good. Also, my latte was really good. No complaints about the food. For ambiance, this location has both indoor and outdoor dining area. Not sure, if the outdoor area is shared or not. This location also offers pick up orders. I noticed a lot of people just were picking up their food. I might do the same thing next time. read more

Had a wonderful brunch with my mom earlier today, the food was delicious so was the coffee. The ambiance was cozy on this rainy day. I had a smoked salmon tartine and loved it. My mom's breakfast bowl was so good filled with veggies, farro and eggs with a side of bread. Delicious. The service was not as friendly but ok. Overall a great place to brunch. read more

We went to have breakfast at 10 am. All the available tables were dirty and floors sticky. We asked a male employee to give us something to wipe the table and the chairs. He started doing it himself and got visibly annoyed by me asking to wipe thoroughly. Shame on management for letting this place go down. read more

This was a cute find during the early mornings with the baby out and about. We sat outdoors and everyone was attentive and friendly. The matcha pistachio iced latte was so good. I wish I could make this at home when I go back to NorCal!! The chai was meh. Cream donut is yummy!! Ham & Gruyère Sandwich was delicious, great flavour, good croissant. The chicken soup was super meh too, really bland. Besides the chai and chicken soup , everything else there was good. read more

This place used to be one of the places I used to go years ago. I have no idea what happened. The coffee is still not bad that's why I'm giving two stars instead of one. The service was incredibly rude after we had already paid and were sitting at a corner table, finishing our drinks and employees stood so close to us that they were literally brushing against our hair. It was extremely uncomfortable, and there wasn't even an apology. On top of that, the jars of jam and chocolate spread left on the tables looked all them dirty, and the shirts didn't appear to be cleaned or monitored. The whole place felt unsanitary. Such a disappointing experience, I won't be coming back. I hope it gets under a new management or shuts down and gets replaced by something better. read more

Stopped by just to grab a pastry for a light snack. Ended up picking up the chocolate chip cookie croissant. Definitely very tasty and was not a light snack lol it was heavy but so good! It's a nice small little coffee shop/bakery located in Americana - a nice little get away from the commotion outside. Definitely coming back for some different pastries! read more

I was very surprised. I expected amazing flavor and service because of the options and the decor. The decor is so cute and the place is in a great location so i had to try it. We waited in line and i decided while i was in line what i wanted. When we were next, the lady taking our order wasn't great. She was nice to me but gave my friend a little bit of attitude for asking a question about bread, even though it was going to be the same order. I had to repeat my order a few times because she didn't know what i was talking about and wasn't sure if they had it. Ultimately, i had to direct her towards it and point at it. I got the mini carrot cake, the cannelle and the mini apricot pie to go. They were terrible. The mini apricot pie was the only one i was actually able to eat (although it wasn't great) and the others, i had one bite and threw them away. They were very bad. Idk if it's just those, but it was 3 things that i ordered and they were not good. I'm hoping that was just my experience and also maybe their other stuff is good; the fresh food and the bread. read more

Late breakfast for us today. This location is busy, a little too busy, but that is a good thing. Our first time here, we enjoyed a quick breakfast, the food was good. The service was a little slow towards the end, waited a while, just to get the check. read more

If you are reading the reviews and deciding whether or not to still go to this LPQ then let this be your sign to NOT GO. I read the reviews prior to coming with my family but I'm like "I'm a server, I know what to expect. I don't think it can be THAT bad." No it truly can be. First occasion, the waitress was so rude. Forgot to mention they were out of certain ingredients that go in my salad, all of our food was made very far apart from each other so some of us got to watch the other eat while others finished their food once my food arrived, A MESS. Anyways to add more insult to injury on this first occasion, I asked for the bill and was shoved a card reading device in my face. Once I stated I was going to pay cash, a bill was not brought it was shouted at at me. I gave her the cash and kindly asked for my change and the receipt. She came back and tossed the receipt and kept my change (-: love that. I still tipped an additional $6 but later realized I shouldn't have. I later got in touch with the DM and she took the proper measure to resolve the issues or so I thought. I order again but this time for delivery. Everything was fine until I realize that my pastry is missing. I called and let them know and funny enough, the DM answered the phone and assured me that she will reimburse me the difference for the missing pastry. Which she never did til the third event took place. I go to pick up a phone order I had placed. Ordered just for my husband and I. Again, I want to try the pastry that I never got so I had ordered it. I check my bag while still in store because after these last two incidents I have borderline PTSD with this place. I realize once again the pastry THAT I PAID FOR was not there. I let the cashier who helped me know. She says "No you didn't even pay for it" I kindly show her my receipt that clearly states that within the $88.46 I was charged for the Passionfruit tart that is missing. She says "I didn't even put that on there but if you want something for free just take it" Excuse you girly but I paid it for it, I don't want anything for free nor do I expect that but admit you were wrong and say you're sorry!?! I don't know how they're trained to act and service people but this is no way how. It is insaneeee to me that management does not mind this behavior. I will stick to the LPQ in Larchmont. Avoid this one AT ALL costs. read more

Stopped in for lunch, had one of the best avocado toasts in my life. Ambiance was great. Service (server Jayda) was fantastic and she was attentive and kind. Will definitely be coming back with friends! 5 stars for sure read more

I walk in and get no greeting. Confused on if it's seat yourself or wait to be seated. Ordered a sandwich to go asked how long it would take prior to ordering and guy at the front said less than 15 minutes. Waited probaly 30 minutes for a sandwich and as I'm waiting no one gives me an update or asks if I've been helped. Only one guy did and went to check on my order for me. read more

The table service was terrible. We waited more than 20 minutes just to be attended to. Nobody ever came. One waiter said someone would come shortly, but nobody did. I went there with my parents, who are seniors and over 70 years old, just to have some coffee. The place was not busy at all -- only about one third of the tables were occupied. After waiting more than 20 minutes, I finally went to the register to try to order directly myself. We only wanted a few coffees, and they told me orders had to be taken at the table. Nobody had even brought us a menu or acknowledged us. I politely asked if they could please take the order since we had already been waiting over 20 minutes and were sitting outside. They told me they could only do it in plastic cups if they took the order there. After more than 30 minutes, a waitress finally showed up. I explained that we had already been waiting over 20 minutes when I decided to go order the coffees myself. She completely brushed it off. Nobody cared about the service or the customer. This was by far the worst service I have ever experienced at a Le Pain Quotidien. If you want to grab a coffee, do yourself a favor and go to La La Land Café, De Lucas, or Nordstrom instead, and avoid the headache of this place. What makes it worse is that this is an international franchise, yet this location has unbelievably poor service. I previously worked as both a manager and server in cafés and restaurants that were much busier than this place, and with fewer staff members. The reality is that they simply do not care about the customer. That attitude starts with management. I normally do not leave reviews, but in this case I felt obligated to do so in order to prevent other people from having the same frustrating experience. read more

Le Pain Quotidien is a reliable go‑to when you want something fresh, simple, and comforting -- the kind of place where organic breads and pastries, seasonal soups, and tartines actually taste as wholesome as they sound. The vibe is warm and relaxed, perfect for a slow breakfast, a casual lunch, or grabbing a pastry and coffee that's consistently good. Service can vary by location, but the food is steady, the ingredients feel clean, and the communal‑table atmosphere makes it an easy spot to unwind in the middle of a busy day. read more

I ordered Pumpkin Twist and Iced Matcha Latte. It's good , not too sweet. Pumpkin Twist was crunchy. We also ordered OrganicDutch Mini-Pancakes. My grandson love it. Small pancakes with syrup and sliced of banana. Fresh Fruit Salad was also fresh with pineapple, blueberries, strawberries, and kiwi. There's more kind of fruit but I forgot. The Roasted Butternut Squash & Goat Cheese Frittata and Smoked Salmon & Herbed Goat Cheese Croissant Sandwich came in big plates. I haven't tried them but my daughter and her husband love the food. Forgot to take pictures again. The waitress was polite and attentive. The price was fair and acceptable. Restroom was clean. Parking at Americana parking lot. read more

I came here with the Too Good To Go App and got a bag of 5 baked goods for $5.50. My favorite was the chocolate croissant and the vegan carrot cake was small but tasty. Service was quick and it's a cute place in the Americana. I'd definitely come back for the chocolate croissant. read more

Man, I really wanted to like this place. This is the first Le Pain Quotidien I've been to. But sadly, I probably will never return. I came to the location at the Americana for breakfast on my day off. I was sat by an older woman in the very back, and a male waiter served me. He never told me his name and was not friendly at all. In fact, he never smiled. I ordered the Sunny Side Breakfast Bowl and then he just stared at me expectantly before asking if I wanted a drink. So I ordered a Chai Latte with almond milk, but he never asked me what size (he brought me a large) and never mentioned it was a $1(!) upcharge for non-dairy milk. Like come on dude. Luckily the drink was pretty good. Unfortunately, the food was not. It tasted like it was doused in salt. The breakfast bowl, which is pretty much the healthiest thing on their menu, tasted like it would give you high blood pressure. Like there was no flavor but salt. I also didn't like how the veggies were cooked. They weren't browned; they looked boiled or something. Really a weird choice. It came with two slices of bread, which were somehow also a disappointment. The piece of baguette was sweet! Sweet! As if the baker used sugar instead of salt. The second piece was a slice, and was fine but kind of dry. The waiter also gave me my check before I was ready. And was just a sourpuss the whole time. Luckily, the ambiance was nice and I did enjoy my drink, otherwise, I probably would've only given one star. Please check in with your staff, Le Pain Quotidien! read more

Great ambience both inside and outside depending on availability. It was Saturday around brunch time so the place was crowded. We have a party of 6 and found a table at the patio. Lucky! They do have a big community table (can seat 6-8) inside but it was just taken. Service was friendly and attentive despite us sitting outside. Our server David was awesome. He was being pulled in multiple directions and still able to get it all together. As for food, it was well put together. I enjoyed the brunch and the good times. There are covered parking at the Americana (entrance at central or brand boulevard) and they confirm that they no longer validate parking. You can consider parking at parking B of Glendale galleria which is a block away. Might as well visit both malls while you are there! read more

I recently visited the Americana with a friend and popped in for a quick brunch. This spot makes you feel like you're in a cafe in Paris. The staff is friendly and attentive. I ordered the side fruit bowl and the Belgian liege waffle. Unfortunately they were out of matcha that day. The fruit salad was larger than I expected with a good amount of berries and good quality fruit. I was shocked how much I got for the price point. The waffle was smaller than expected. The cream on it is heavier and creamier than typical whipped cream. Very tasty. No syrup was needed, but I did enjoy the table jams and hazelnut spread on it. read more

Walked in and decided to give it a try, but immediately regretted it. I ordered a hot drink, but it was served warm at best. When I asked if it could be remade, I was told I'd have to wait about 8 minutes for a new batch. Ordered another drink to give it a second chance, the matcha and strawberry flavors were barely noticeable and were completely overpowered by the milk. Unfortunately, it just wasn't for me, and I don't see myself coming back. read more
