I pretty much always stop to try the macarons anywhere I see them...these were pretty good ( it was a while ago I tried them and can't remember them standing out) but what did stand out was their Namesake Merengue! They were delicious! So light and melted in your mouth!! I have only tried merengue a few times and didn't love it ( think bland ) but these were very addictive! I just kept reaching into the bag for more. They were like flavor puffs that melted away in your mouth! Next time I go to RAM I would stop in again!

Fun and new on the Jax culinary scene! These folks do their best to present macarons in unique and…read moredelightful ways, that add to their whimsy and maybe even their fantastic flavors! Of course, they do much more than macarons! We had the pleasure of sampling several of their macaron flavors as welł as their meringues and a Nutella meringue which was a lovely twist on an old favorite! We also saw many of their other treats while we visited, and look forward to trying them soon! Be sure to follow them on Instagram for updates on where they are selling this week as well as any pop-up opportunities. Lovely business and we look forward to watching them develop!

I came across this shop on the way out of the mall with just 15mins before they closed. The…read moregentleman Reyshaune who was working there offered EXCEPTIONAL customer service. He was so nice and well-informed on all of the desserts. When picking out each flavored macaron he provided me a quote to match the flavor or a fun fact about the taste. I was so impressed with him. We were a party of 7 ordering a variety of macarons, gelato, shakes, and pastries close to closing time and he did not skip a beat. He didn't rush us and was all about having happy customers. I have been to other locations for this company that do not offer the same level of service so that speaks volumes. I don't go to Jacksonville too often, but when I do I will make sure to stop over to this mall for some macarons because they are so delicious and worth every penny. Plus with the level of service, they offer you really cannot go wrong here.

So yummy!! I received the best customer service here. My order was taken and the most extreme care…read morewas taken to make my drink order as tasty as it can be. Pure perfection!! The macarons are so moist and delicate and I had to struggle with only getting two as I opted for a sugary sweet iced espresso also. Delicious!!!

A friend was visiting and wanted ice cream or gelato. We were in the area so stopped in here…read more What an adorable little shop with a case full of top notch pastries, colorful macarons and sculptural, luscious, extremely artistic looking chocolates. We were just in the market for the gelato that day and were pleased to find about 8 selections in the front cooler. After sampling the violet I chose it- slightly sweet, floral but fruitier than I imagined. It was remarkable. My friend got chocolate and we enjoyed a nice walk down to the river while eating our treats. The cafe did have a handful of tables in and outdoors in case you prefer to stay there. I definitely need a special occasion so I can go back for some of those exquisite chocolates.

After a recent lunch near the town center, we were looking for a good dessert spot. We basically…read moretried Light On The Sugar Bakery Cafe because of how close it was to where we were. What a lucky course of events! There is seating both inside and outside. The interior clean, bright, elegant and simple. The staff were friendly and we were served very quickly. The only wait was for the coffees ordered at my table. They were fantastic as well. I ordered the Tiramisu pie. Amazing texture, velvety layers, perfect flavor blend, bold, just the right amount of sweet...delicious. We'll be back to try more and if you haven't visited Light on The Sugar Bakery Cafe, I highly suggest you do.

Really Cute and Cozy Dessert and Drink spot in the heart of the St. John's Town Center…read more The Service was quick and efficient. I had my drink within 2 minutes of ordering. My Key Lime Pie Puff was great although I would've loved a slightly more baked graham cracker crust. I also had a try of the Tiramisu cake slice and that could've been a bit HEAVIER on the sugar, if you know what I mean. Overall, I would absolutely pop in again.

Will post pics after August!!! This is what they gave us and it was all so yummy. Mocha, key lime, Bavarian cream and raspberry. Pretty little shop with room to sit and enjoy too

Love their pastries, baguette sandwiches and coffee! Beautiful interior and great customer service…read more My favorite is Le Germain. It has prosciutto ham, mozzarella, green pesto, shaved Parmesan and arugula! Their baguette is perfectly crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, making every bite delicious! They also have a wide selections of coffee drinks at prices they are very reasonable compared to other coffee shops around. And of course, they offer some of the best quality pastries in Jacksonville! Definitely a must visit local business!

We fortunately tried The French Pantry recently and came away knowing we had found one of THE…read morepremier sandwich shops/bakeries in the Jacksonville area. We arrived early and found that very quickly there was a line that was extending out the door. That was for good reason. This place is excellent. Great staff, impeccable food, fantastic service. Inside is clean, neat with hearty tables. The front features their baked goods as well. All fresh, all look delicious. I tried the Tiramisu for dessert. No pictures. It was that good that it made me forget. We dined in, and to do so, you order at the front, are seated and are served shortly after. When you order, keep in mind that they bring bread to the table. Two types of bread with a delicious mix of oil and balsamic that is ideal for dipping. Shortly after we received our food. We split the sandwiches between us and one order of truffle fries. The muffuletta was so meaty and flavorful. The bread fresh and the perfect accompaniment. The eggplant likewise was so delicious. I was expecting more of historical panini type bread but this bread was perfect and grilled. The truffle fries...crispy, bursting with flavor. Really generous portions here of next level sandwiches. If you're in the mood for a great sandwich or a huge salad, this is THE place for you. I highly encourage you to check them out. You'll be glad you did.

Went for lunch for the first time ever, and as usual there was a slight wait to order. Tried the…read moreturkey goat cheese sandwich and the chicken panini (no prosciutto). Both sandwiches were great but just extremely heavy - I definitely was in need of a serious nap after lunch. Had a side of truffle fries, but couldn't get through more than a few. The ambiance inside is somewhat tight and thankfully we were sat at our own table. The servers essentially drop the food off and that's it, so it's interesting as usual that they ask for a tip like we are at a restaurant with a real waiter/waitress. Overall, not a bad place, didn't get a chance to try the pastries/cakes which looked decadent. But for the price of the sandwiches and service, I'd say the value is pretty low.

From the moment you walk in, it feels like you've been transported to a charming café in France. The Nutella and strawberry crepes are absolutely delicious and a must-order. Their cappuccinos are excellent, complete with adorable latte art that makes the experience even more special. And don't leave without trying one of their freshly baked croissants--they're perfectly buttery, incredibly flaky, and melt in your mouth. If you're looking for a cozy brunch spot with delicious food, great coffee, and a beautiful atmosphere, this place is definitely worth a visit!

We sat outside and their outside area is super cute and spacious and it actually wasn't that hot being underneath the covering that they have and there is some breeze coming through. I order the same thing every time because I love it so much - the Le Germain. I also got the linzer matcha, which had an interesting taste. I've never had that flavor before and I just wanted to try it, but I don't think it was quite for me, but I usually do like their Matcha so I think it was just that I didn't love this particular flavor. But look how pretty it is I loved the purple and green together!!
