This is a neat place to visit. When you walk in you grab a tray and tongs and you walk around the bread and pastry displays and pick up what you want. There's a cooler with some pre-made sandwiches, and the like, which can be heated up by the staff after you purchase them. Korean Iced Milk Coffee Not sure which iced coffee to order, the person behind the register suggested this one and I'm glad he did. This is a semi sweet coffee served with milk and half and half. It was perfect - not too sweet and not bitter at all. I enjoyed this one! Turkey Melt This was a really tasty turkey, bacon and cheese sandwich on sourdough. The sandwich is stored in their pre-made cooler and you pick it up and bring it to the register where they will warm it up for you. The sourdough was delicious, turkey, bacon and cheese is probably what you'd expect. Boursin® Garlic Cheese Quiche A delicious quiche and very garlicky. The exterior was a nice flakey consistency while the interior was the garlicky egg with tomato and red pepper. This was a delight and I wouldn't hesitate to get this again. Peanut Crumb Bread A sweet bread topped with peanut crumbs. The bread was soft and just sweetened enough. The peanut crumbs gave it a really nice flavor, almost a buttery peanut butter flavor but without the peanut butter. This was a very enjoyable treat. Overall, a really nice experience here and the service and the atmosphere is really nice. read more

Great service and friendly employees! The best baguette I've had in California. I highly recommend them read more

They are really new, and it shows. Everyone seems excited to have Paris Baguette come here to the Conejo Valley, and I believe that they should be successful. However, I would urge that their management team step up and pay more attention to detail, as there's as much lacking as there is to celebrate. We first stopped in last Friday evening, in their very first week of opening. The cases were all picked over. It looked like the end of a very long day for the cafe. Dear Hubby and I took a stroll around, and finding nothing of interest left to purchase, walked back to our car and left. We understood that they were hit hard with guests devouring their wares, and the newness was really pushing them to the brink. We returned today about 5 PM. While they had racks of freshly baked items waiting to go out to re-stock the shelves, they were still in the cooling racks and not out for sale. The actual stock shelves were bare in more than half the spaces. Again, I'm sure they had a busy day, but they had four more hours to be open, and it becomes "What's the point?" if you don't have enough interesting baked goods to sell during dinner time and beyond? I expect that it will take time to understand how much to bake each day for the anticipated sales. Will give them a semi-pass for now on that aspect. As for ambiance, I'm not really impressed. It's very bland, and lacking in any cuteness to add charm. They seem to have a lot of staff members, but no one appears to be in charge of straightening up the dining room and patio. The bistro tables have heavy metal bases, which suggest a French influence. The problem with them is that they don't allow for orderly replacement of the bistro-style chairs back under the table. The bases themselves interfere with pushing in the chairs. That leaves both the dining room and patio areas looking haphazard and uncared for, which isn't a great look for a new place. Still, one or more team members ought to be assigned to circulating through the dining spaces to straighten the chairs and clean the tabletops. That would make a more appealing environment as new guests arrive to dine. It's a shame that they didn't figure out in their budget how to allow for at least a small amount of decor on the tables. Small metal containers with real or faux succulents would be nice. Or small glass vases with either real or faux tiny flowers would add some instant atmospheric brightening. The cafe seems utilitarian and uninspired, aside from the bright blue and white signage. Dear Hubby and I sat out on the patio on a warm early evening. The floor area was heavily littered with a mix of dry sycamore leaves and plentiful amounts of discarded napkins and even cupcake wrappers. That wasn't a very appealing site. Back to taking care of the environment - is anyone assigned to sweep up outside, or are they just leaving the mess to the end of the day? It can be breezy outside, which makes napkins fly. By not having any table decor to hold napkins down, all the more reason they are sailing around and not staying put. And speaking of trash - there are zero trash cans outside to dispose of whatever needs to be tossed after eating. Hoping that's just an oversight at this point? A lot of these comments might seem picky, but it's part of an overall first impression that made us feel like they have a ways to go to get their act together. At the prices they charge for many of their items for essentially a self-serve cafeteria kind of place, they could use a plan to step up their game. There are other similar kind of bakery cafes in the general area where you can have the same sort of experience, but pay a lot less at the cash register. I will say that several of the baked goods we tried were very delicious. Made me wonder how many pounds of butter they go through a day to make the croissants and pastries? Must be a significant amount. I can tolerate cows' milk dairy butter in pastries, but I strenuously try to avoid cheese, as it doesn't agree with my dry eye condition. Many, many of the most interesting looking savory pastries and sandwiches they offer have dairy cheese in them, so no luck for me there. The salmon and Boursin cheese sandwich looked especially delicious. One last note - the cake slices, while looking like little works of pastry art, are quite expensive for a self-serve bakery setting. The full cakes are like an investment at the cost of pushing $50. We wish them well, but DH and I think we will be exploring other venues that have better ambiance and lower prices for similar quality. read more

This location is spacious with a minimalist decor. I came in around 2. Still plenty of breads and it smells amazing. The gurl that helped me was great too. Friendly. However I must say.. for this visit in this location, breads are mostly too well done. Hard on the outside. Darker color, dryer, chewy and smells great. Either stay in the oven too long, not enough worker to manage it or simply oven temp too high. read more

I've been to Paris Baguettes in Texas, so my expectations for a California version were quite high. Unfortunately, for my first visit, it was just an average visit. The bakery has lots of seating indoor and outdoor and shares a busy parking lot with Whole Foods. But the selections were very limited on a busy Friday afternoon and their pasties could have been restocked for a better customer experience. The staff were working hard and keeping the bakery clean, but there were quite a number of empty shelves for baked goods. The quality is very good and is not comparable to 85 Degrees because the selection is so different. The cost is higher but it's because they use quality ingredients. I will give it another try to see if they offer more sweet and savory baked goods in the near future. read more

I'm so glad they opened near by, because I absolutely love light and not-too sweet pastries. It's just my preference, and Paris Baguette has pastries and cakes that are delicate and delicious. I usually get the yogurt cake, but this location had the chiffon blueberry cake, which actually made my mood a bit better that day. It was sooo good!! Perfect 10/10 ~ I'll be getting this for any bdays and holidays coming up, and in between throughout the year. lol...love chiffon! I also had the fruit tart pastry that had pieces of fruits, and the chunk of an orange slice was a perfect bite of refreshing goodness w their yummy custard. Their cream puffs are also very good, I did not see them there at the time though. Anyway, these are the ones I liked most and highly recommend. ***One more thing! I had bought two different types of sliced breads here, and there's a big difference between the milk bread (square shape), and cream bread, (rounded top). The cream bread is porous, and texture and consistency is not as good as the milk bread. I wouldn't buy the cream bread again. read more

Paris Baguette - Bakeries Near Me - Thousand Oaks, California

A fun new addition to the area! Stopped by on Saturday on opening weekend and the line was wrapped out the door, but moved quickly. Once inside, you pick up a tray and tongs to grab whichever pastries you like. There's a lot to choose from and they're constantly refilling the cases. Our favorites were the croissant donut and the coffee bread, but the sweet potato pastry and croissant were good options too. The only one I'd pass on for future was the mochi donut. There's also sandwiches and salads in the cold case and a wide selection of full size cakes. Our cashier Kelle was lovely and got us checked out quickly. There's spots inside and out to enjoy your meal or they'll pack it in a nice box to take home. read more

How lucky are we to have a local specialty bakery in Thousand Oaks?! We loved our experience at Paris Baguette and were especially impressed by the friendly customer service and beautiful cake selection. My kids had so much fun browsing the pastry cases and picking out their perfect treats ... it made the visit feel like a special outing rather than just a bakery stop. Everything looked fresh, beautifully displayed, and there was something for everyone. Whether you're stopping in for a morning coffee and pastry, picking up a special occasion cake, or just looking for a sweet treat, I highly recommend Paris Baguette. We're excited to have a bakery like this in our community and will definitely be back! read more

Was really excited to have Paris Baguette close to home and wanted to try it, headed over today around noonish and the line was at the door weaving around the display cases and gondolas (which most were empty)to the one and only register. Most everything was gone or picked over and it was t even 1:00pm. Wanted to try something but waiting in the checkout line I was afraid anything I picked out would go stale before I paid for it. Not impressed with this visit, empty cases with long li es at one register did not make a good impression. Will let the "newness" wear off and hope that it's all that it is supposed to be. Sorry Paris Baguette you didn't get my vote today. read more

Decided to finally visit yesterday after craving a Brookie. You walk in and it is extremely clean, which you gotta give props to cleanliness nowadays. Nobody greets you when you walk in, but I'm focused on the food anyways. You grab a tray, paper on top, some tongs, and go crazy. Although I will say I came at around 4pm and little to nothing was there. The stuff I grabbed was the last and there's nobody refilling the cabinets throughout the day. I get there's an 'exclusivity' to coming early rather in the afternoon, but why do all that? I just wanted my brookie. I'd recommend having people fill the cabinets throughout the day so everybody could get a shot at different pastries. Otherwise, the pastries were pretty good but nothing extraordinary. My favorite was the mochi donut and the strawberry croissant which is filled with a custard- SO GOOD! read more

Paris Baguette - Chocolate croissant, coffee pastry, apple turnover, mochi donut, strawberry-filled croissant - Bakeries Near Me - Thousand Oaks, California

I was very disappointed. The prices are a bit high and I wouldn't mind that if the pastries were good. But I drive all the way over to Thousand Oaks. They don't have chai for my chai latte. They don't have any other pastries. There are featured on their website and then I buy the only thing that I looks remotely appealing to me. You gotta see how it's made and they have the audacity to charge for almost 4 dollars for this. It's ridiculous. I will never go back and I would not recommend it. read more

I was really looking forward to this shop opening. Unfortunately, I was sadly disappointed. First time going today and we arrived at 10:30 only to find that they've already ran out of items and had no plans to restock. Both trash areas remained overflowing for the entire time we were there (1hr or so) and the side patio door was open for 20 mins even though employees who were on break walked back and forth. I know that it's only been open for several weeks but if you have a good manager and training then I would expect that items of high demand are kept stocked - especially when you still have the rest of the day left. Keep up with trash receptacles, and watch that doors closed as there are fresh parties sitting out in the open uncovered. There were 7-10 staff members just in the front alone so to keep up and these small things would make such a difference. read more

Yayy! so happy to have a Paris Baguette now close to home. ordered a variety of pastries and iced americano. they were out of cold brew and another specialty coffee on a Monday morning. service was excellent, the cashier was very welcoming. we took our pastries home and while tasty, they weren't as good as other locations i've been to. nonetheless, i'll definitely return as maybe it had to do with being so close to their grand opening. they were very busy! read more

It's new so not going to be overly critical. Tried it for the first time this weekend and here it is... You walk in and they have tongs and a tray for you to grab items you want. The large display cases and refrigerator sections have a bunch of different things - pastries, donuts, sandwiches. You pick them yourself and pay at the counter. EVERYTHING in pre-made. It doesn't look like any of it is really made from scratch. My guess is par-baked and finished in house. And it tastes like it. Simple concept. Here's where it's odd. They don't make food to order. Only the coffee drinks, smoothies, etc. So, if they don't have the sandwich you want, you're out of luck. Also weird navigating in between people in line while you try to put stuff on your tray. I got a few things: Two different croissant sandwiches, a coffee type donut, a lemon cream raspberry donut, and a sausage link pastry. Overall, it wasn't good. The donuts tasted like oil and the sandwiches had a BARE minimum of meat and cheese, but also had mayo on them which is nasty on a breakfast croissant. As I said earlier, none of it tasted homemade - because it isn't. It honestly felt like an elevated Starbucks. The fact that everything is pre-made is a turn off. If I want a specific sandwich, I can't order it. People are calling it a local specialty bakery and it is not. Not even close. Probably a one and done for me as the food just isn't good. We have two actual French bakeries in this town and I'd rather spend an extra few bucks on that than this version of Parisian grab and go. Take it with a gran of salt since they have 300 of these in the US and 4000 worldwide. Nobody ever went broke underestimating the taste of the American public... read more

This place is very similar to 85 C in Simi Valley. Although they are not owned by same Company their concepts are very similar. One is from S Korea and the other is Asian. However Paris is at least 35% more expensive. They don't have a working kitchen making hot foods. Everything is pre done, wrapped, and sold cold. I miss the authentic French Bakeries!!!!! read more

I came in during my lunch to try this spot out. It was very clean and had many yummy options. I really like the lemon berry croissant! Staff was kind but a special shout out to Tim. He was very helpful and sweet, making the experience a bit more nice. Will be coming again :) read more

Well if you r looking for a place to pick up moms this is it. I was the only guy. 30 women. Went to specifically try their ham and cheese baguette sandwich. Pre made. Cold. Bread was chewy. $10. On a 1-10 a 4. But they have these cases filled with selections where u can stack up your pastries - take to counter and pay. Coffee u can order at checkout. Did not try. So need to c how their breakfast pastries rate plus most importantly the latte. Atmosphere was excellent. Service very attentive and courteous. read more

So so happy there is a Paris Baguette in TO now! I have been wanting to try this place for months every time I am out in the valley but never got around to it. I feel so lucky to have one in Ventura county now. Went in and was not disappointed at all. The pastries exceeded my expectations in flavor, as well as the cold brew. This will definitely do Thousand Oaks well. Worth stopping in just to look around or grab a quick drink/snack. read more

My husband went on a Sunday morning and brought them home. They were fully stocked, no wait, and we made a mess with all the flakey and crispy goodness at home. We tried and shared 4 different items between us for 20 bucks and they were all delicious. We will back soon! read more

Really happy to have Paris Baguette in the neighborhood. Despite having just opened, the staff was friendly and the display cases were still well stocked with a wide variety of pastries, breads, and sandwiches. The tuna sandwich was a standout for me, and several of the pastries were excellent. A few items weren't my personal favorites, but with such a large selection, that comes down more to individual taste than quality. Overall, it's a great addition to the area with plenty of options to try, and I'm looking forward to coming back and working my way through more of the menu. read more

I was the second customer at their grand opening here in Thousand Oaks. Alex Kimberly were the first to try their delicious pastries? I highly recommend Paris Baguette. Everything was so good!

Very disappointing experience. The service was extremely slow, even though there were six people working. Unfortunately, the staff did not seem organized or experienced enough to handle the customers properly. We had to wait too long and felt like our needs were not being taken care of.

They had no one to make coffees!? went there early because I know sometimes it gets packed really wanting one of those nice coffee drinks that they have no one was there to make the coffee they had no one on staff to make coffee, which is really disappointing and confusing because you're there to get pastries and a coffee?? read more

Went in when they first opened got a few pastries which are quite pricey. They where great. Went back last week and they have already cut the fillings on the pasties by a noticeable amount. The round chocolate had less than a teaspoon of filling! If I'm paying over 6 bucks a piece put more filling in them. Very disappointed! read more

I'm going to say this with the understanding that this place is brand new and potentially still working out kinks. I'll give it another go in a few weeks and update this review accordingly. First off- do not expect a quick in and out. There was one cashier working with a very long slow moving line. The flow is completely missing from this self-serve cafeteria-style restaurant. Customers zig zagging from one case to the next, because you have to. The cases are not necessarily sequential or in a defined line. 3 employees restocking cases - also very much bumping into a line of waiting customers and still-browsing customers. The setup made no sense to me. You cannot visit all of the cases without leaving (and losing) your place in line. That's crazy. Then, if you grab something like a pizza pastry, which obviously you want warm, you wait again at the counter for them to do that after ringing you up. There is way too much back and forth and handling of items for my liking. Admittedly I'm not typically fond of buffet-style situations anyway but at least with a buffet there are clear lines. The food was very good. I had a pizza pastry and a blueberry lemon tart. But 25 minutes of waiting was most definitely not desirable. Maybe ordering ahead is best. And they need umbrellas on their patio. Definitely hoping for their success. I can walk there from my office so it's great having another option in the neighborhood. But they have to get the flow figured out because right now it's chaotic. Again maybe it's the newness. Is every location this much of a cluster? read more

The sandwiches are so good. They just opened and the service is great. Clean new place with bright bright lights. Lot of seating inside as well as outside. In the same complex as Whole Foods off of Moorpark Road. read more

I was so excited to try this location. I have been driving out to Woodland Hills to get my fix. While I recognize that they JUST opened, they had 1 person working the coffee machines and I waited almost 20 mins for a matcha latte. Also, the sign clearly says no pets on the door, and I proceeded to watch a man casually walk in with his dog, order food and coffee, and then sit with his dog in his lap at the table, with the dog licking the table. No one did anything. Needless to say, I will not be eating inside this place any time soon. But I love their pastries and will pick things up to go! read more

I've heard about this place for a while now. They have locations throughout the USA. I've been to the location in Woodland Hills and it was just so so. The staff were very unfriendly. I was glad to see this location open and even went back a second but when I tried it again I was still very disappointed. The pastries that I tried along with my wife were terrible. They were not well made. No crunch and tasted flat. It was like biting into a croissant that is prepackaged. We really threw them away after a few bites when we got home. There are a couple of other much better coffee and pastry shops along T. O. Blvd. It might be some new location and employee problems. Thanks but no thanks. read more

I was so excited to try this place. I ordered a cake for my dad's birthday, but unfortunately, they gave me the wrong one. I first spoke with a young woman over the phone, but she didn't seem to know how to resolve the issue. I was then transferred to the manager, who asked me to return to the store to exchange the cake. I was really disappointed with the customer service. I'm not a local, so having to drive back to exchange the cake was a major inconvenience, especially on such a busy day. read more

Blah on the croissants - also recommend some small jelly packets for those who dine in.

D. All of the above...They seemed lost! No greeting at the door or when i stood at the counter... grab tongs and tray and your own bakery items leads to sloppy looking organization. Dessert was inedible but croissant was ok. Awful ambiance and service. Mostly empty shelves during post lunch hours read more

It is 5: 38pm July 11th. I just had my first experience at Paris baguette. The ambience seemed nice at first. Customer service was confused which I tried to disregard because it's been open only 3 weeks. It should not have been this confused though. I also think that nose ring piercings or any other type of piercings like that in a food place is extraordinarily gross and is very off-putting to my appetite. The cashier had a nose ring . I got my medium brewed signature coffee which was very weak and watered down. They only offer half and half in whole milk for creamers. I want to be offered different flavors like hazelnut, vanilla, french, vanilla, Irish, whatever. If their wloe thing is coffee, I would like to get at least what I could get at the 7-Eleven or any other gas station. Everything was very dirty over where you get the creamers. It needed to be wiped down but the restaurant was very empty so this is just laziness. Also, all around the trash cans was extraordinarily dirty. They just opened if this is their best first depression. I hate to see what they look like a few years down the road. Another thing that bothered me is that they don't have mugs porcelain mugs to drink out of only to-go cups. I asked why and the man told me because they want more of a buy and go atmosphere. He was lying to me clearly because they have all these tables set up indoors and outdoors for a patio. If you want to sell that atmosphere, you have to sell nice big cups where you can put whipped cream in them and have an experience and enjoy your time having your coffee and maybe your little treat, so this is really stupid thinking on their part. They can't have it as fast food and not bother to not have pour some mugs because they don't want to do dishes. I know that that building is equipped with a full kitchen because it used to be a burger restaurant. Overall it was lazy, dirty, unthoughtout, and unimpressive. They are not equipped for what they're selling and I felt lied to on top of it. I wouldn't waste my time going there again. I suggest that you don't either. read more
