The French Bakery and Cafe in Delray Beach caught us by a pleasant surprise. The pastries, croissants, the atmosphere, and the coffee was 5/5. The highlight of the day for us was the Almond Croissant. Wow. The texture was flaky on the outside, inside was very soft, and the taste was just perfect balance of almonds and sweetness. They also have a wide variety of cookies that seemed freshly baked every morning, as well as baguettes that looked so good that we just couldn't say no to. They do offer some free parking in the front and in the back of the bakery. The restrooms are kept clean and well maintained. My overall rating of 4/5 stars was due to 3/5 stars for service with some staff that could be a little more friendly in explaining different options they have for the drinks. read more

The French Bakery is a popular bakery in Delray. It's close to the beach, near the busy avenue, but conveniently has its own parking so you can be in and out in a jiffy. I have seen countless cyclists meeting up here on the weekends and a constant flow of people going in and out. I finally decided the time has come to give it a shot! Right off the bat I knew this was going to be one for the books. Fresh baked bread displayed when you first walk in, two cases displaying sandwiches , pastries, and a variety of bread. A cooler case in the middle offering various desserts in to go containers. A GIANT espresso machine churning out the best smelling espresso. This place has the makings of an incredible bakery! I opted for an iced white chocolate latte and I must say I was very impressed. Instead of using the typical flavor syrup, they actually used white chocolate chips and brewed espresso over it. This did give a little bit of a weird texture since I ordered it iced, but I didn't mind. The espresso was extremely strong and smooth. Absolutely delicious. I came in with the intention of ordering a chocolate croissant and an almond croissant. To my surprise, I hit the jackpot with a chocolate almond croissant in one! I could honestly not believe the taste. The croissant itself was light, airy, and flaky. They were able to get a chocolate layer in the middle without compromising the fluffiness of the croissant. Also, the almonds were thin sliced on top so they were not too overpowering. My entire experience from taste to ambiance was 10/10. Highly recommend for anyone looking to grab a sweet treat! read more

Ode to an almond croissant: crispy, chewy, delicious layers, the flakey croissant and the evenly spaced baked-in almond paste, the crisp almonds on the top. I just had the most beautiful almond croissant. The kind of thing that after taking the first bite, I was completely satisfied. Of course, I did consume the entire thing eventually, but that first bite was a moment. Parking was plentiful on the east side (in the past, I've had to drive around the corner to get to the west parking lot), Outdoor veranda looked very appealing still! read more

i watched 2 people within 5 min getting yelled at for reaching to get a loaf of bread on their own. The plastic opening in front of the display and bread bags below are a welcoming invitation to help yourself. There is a sign on the side, but not in clear site. Bothe customers were spoken to in an abrupt and uncalled for manner. When it was my turn to check out, the young man looked at me and said 'it's common sense!' As a 65 year old witnessing total disrespect to the previous 2 customers, I said 'I disagree,' and asked how often that happens. A young girl behind the counter said in unison, 'all the time.' Well, then it appears your signage is wrong.' I was yelled at, interrupted several times When just trying to express my view. I will call the Mgr, Nina, but I have a feeling the youn girl who yelled, Mia, and continuously interrupted is related to her. The first person to be scolded was my friend. She later shared that Mia was mimicking me to other customers..... DONE WITH THIS BAKERY--DESPITE THEIR REPUTATION AND GREAT BAKED GOODS.......MAISON BOUCHARD IS NOW OUR GO-TO---- We went to the Bakery across the street, 'Maison Bouchard'....the pastry chef previously worked the French Bakery. The Croissants and quiche are all I have tried, both out of this world.....we received a warm welcome, food is delicious and our business was appreciated. read more

How do I love thee, let me count the ways... I had driven by this quaint little French bakery for about a month on my way to work before I finally was able to pop in. I was not disappointed. I love that they are open so early, so that I can stop in for a quick breakfast treat on my way to work, and I can also pick up a tasty lunch. I thought I loved croissants. I don't know what croissants I've eaten before, but after getting their raspberry almond croissant and the pistachio cream croissant, I don't think I can look at a non French made croissant the same anymore. They were the crispiest, lightest, and tastiest croissants I've ever had. And even the next day (it was sooo hard to save one for the next day), they were still crispy, flakey, and divine. As I was picking out my croissants, I saw them bring out this tray from the oven of what I can only describe as heaven - but they called it their cheesy focaccia bread. I had to get it. They have a couple premade cold dishes, like pasta and quinoa salads. I decided to get the pesto penne pasta. Normally I don't like penne pasta because it can be dense and rubbery. I asked how they recommended I have the salad - hot or cold. They said it was good either way. I opted to have it cold, and it is now one of my favorite lunch options. Light and delicate, but flavorful, with the pesto, olive oil, sun dried tomatoes, and olives coming together for a tasty and surprisingly filling, the portion was not large, but when I had it with the focaccia, I ended up stretching it out over 2 lunches. I couldn't wait to heat up the focaccia the first day, and even cold it was some of the best focaccia I've had. I heated it up the 2nd day, and to be honest, I think it is great served either way. Oh, and if you happen to come at just the right time, you can get a baguette still warm from the oven. You know the bread is good when you have to sneak a bite in the car before you leave the parking lot. The staff is friendly and helpful - especially given how early they open. This has no become a regular treat and lunch option for me. My only regret is that they aren't open on my way home, but really, do I really need a baguette on my way to work and on my way home?! Maybe I shouldn't answer that question. They have other food options: croissant egg and meat sandwiches, quiches (I didn't get it this trip, but I've gotten it multiple times - very light, but filling), and other pastries (that I will someday try when/if the croissants release the hold they have over me. The sandwiches and quiche are VERY reasonably priced, especially since lunch seems to have gotten so expensive no matter way you go. Definitely check this little place out. You won't be disappointed. read more

Excellent croissants (chocolate, chocolate/almond). And great coffee. Drip coffee and latte was good

Best croissants I've ever had. Just came here to say croissants were good (I need to hit the 85 character minimum requirement so I can post the Yelp review so I'm typing more) but yea the whole shop is great. read more

I could have sworn I have reviewed this bakery before. I guess not. My go to is the sunrise special, and a cappuccino . Ham and egg on a croissant . Perfect every time. But if you do not get them as they are being put on the shelf, it's served lukewarm at best. Plenty of different coffees , pastries, cakes and pies to choose from. The front desk workers are always friendly. You can sit in or take out. Excellent morning stop for a coffee, and whatever you decide to get with it. read more

The French Bakery - Bakeries Near Me - Delray Beach, Florida

A very mixed experience with the items purchased on my visit here. Got the baguette, the plain croissant, and the pistachio white chocolate croissant. First the good, the pistachio croissant was one of the best I've ever had. Nice and light on both the chocolate and pistachio, just the right amount. The plain croissant was just ok. Not the best, but not the worst. Issue say it was no better than what you get at Costco. Now that baguette. It was so wrong. Chewy on the outside and way too airy on the inside, it tasted of no substance. Worse it was so chewy (and was consumed within 2 hours of purchase) that I had a tough time eating it and ended up giving most to my dog. It was so inedible that I had purchased it to make sandwiches for my kids and had to grab sandwich bread. The line to order moves pretty quick, but since you don't see what they have in the case till you get to the register there's a lot of pressure to make quick decisions, not my forte! Interesting how inconsistent the products were and how much I ultimately paid a lot for a snack for my dog. read more

The Gremla bakery is truly an authentic Italian delight with some of the most delicious pastries I have ever tasted‼ The prosciutto on homemade focaccia bread with fresh mozzarella, tomatoes and arugula was so very light and tasty...it hit the spot‼ Any pastry you buy there will be made right there on the premises by a pastry chef from Italy...all were scrumptious read more

This cute little French Bakery has been around since 2014. They make traditional French breads and pastries using artisan labor and equipment. Their breads and pastries are handcrafted by several French-trained artisans, as well as a team of local artisan bakers. Their baked goods are handcrafted and baked throughout the day in their hearth deck Bongard bread oven, where they bake daily baguettes, boule, epis, rye and sourdough. Their yummy hand-rolled croissants, pain au chocolat, brioche, cookies, tarts and biscuits, are prepared in plain view and often served still warm from their ovens. My treat was the Pistachio white chocolate croissant....Delish !!!! The croissant was flaky and buttery and it was nice to be able to taste very vividly.....the notes of pistachio and white chocolate The bakery also offers a range of sandwiches and Focaccia on their lunch menu. read more

The French Bakery - Pistachio white Chocolate Croissant !! - Bakeries Near Me - Delray Beach, Florida

A delightful find in Delray - delicious French pastry with beautiful ambiance. We ordered an assortment of croissants (chocolate, almond, chocolate almond and plain). All were buttery, flaky and delicious! There was a small lineup and all the customers were just as excited to enjoy the food and atmosphere. Such a friendly spot! We enjoyed the croissants on their covered outdoor patio. Worth the walk or drive to The French Bakery. read more

The French Bakery - Deliciousness - Bakeries Near Me - Delray Beach, Florida

I took a drive from West Boca to Delray to see how the baked goods were, I consider myself a connoisseur of French food having been to France four times and having tried most of the bakeries in the south Florida area. I should have gotten there when the place opens. That is the best way to judge things. Do my review is based on a 1 pm arrival time. There was a decent line, but not a long wait I ordered the almond chocolate croissant, a seeded small baguette and millionaire cookies. The baked goods were decent, I would give the croissant a B+, the millionaires B-, and their bread a B. I have had better I would if there before 10 am try them again, but wouldn't drive out if my way. However, I would drive to Fort Lauderdale to Croissant Time. Their bread is some of the best. read more

The food is great delicious croissants made all different ways so much to choose from their service is quick and fast. The ambience is very sweet to sit out in the patio. read more

This is 1 of my go-to spots and an absolute gem. I come here frequently, and every visit reminds me why I keep coming back. Their croissants are buttery, flaky perfection--easily among the best I've ever had in boca/delray. The cookies and muffins are equally irresistible, always fresh and full of flavor. My moms thinks she's gone to heaven. And the coffee? Exceptional. Whether you're grabbing a quick cup or sitting down for a relaxed morning, it always hits the spot. If I had one small wish, it would be for more variety in their savory options--particularly quiche and breakfast sandwiches without ham. A vegetarian version would be much appreciated and make this already wonderful bakery even better. All in all, its a top-notch spot that consistently delivers quality and comfort. Highly recommended read more

I believe I rated this place before - praising them about their Raspberry Almond Croissant and Ham & Cheese Sandwich. Today, we went there to get those 2 plus a Pain Au Chocolat. To our dismay, the Pain Au Chocolat has hardly any chocolate filling (see photo). The Raspberry Almond Croissant is a bit hard like it was baked yesterday. The filling is thin but not as bad as the Pain Au Chocolat. I'm totally disappointed with this place as the quality of their pastries is going down. I hope they improve so we can give them better reviews next time. read more

We had quiche and croissants outside on the patio. The quiche was way too salty, masking the herbs. After seeing other reviews of the pistachio white chocolate croissant, I couldn't resist. I'm glad I followed the reviews because it was absolutely delicious. It tasted like it was brushed with honey and had the most authentic pistachio flavor. The iced latte was good. They'll give you a cup of ice if you just want to help yourself to the water dispenser. The parking is much easier than at the tiny French bakery across the street although that place smells good inside. read more

The French Bakery - Quiche and croissants outside on the patio - Bakeries Near Me - Delray Beach, Florida

Long lines on a Sunday morning but they move fairly quickly. Service was to the far right and far left in a rounded bakery display, so you can't see products at all, and if you are unlucky enough to be served to the far left, you'll have to ask to have a second to see what's in the cases. I asked very nicely, and the young lady barely tolerated my request. The croissants were delicious, but Le Bouchard directly behind this location (across the street) has better prices and even more beautiful pastries. Try the coffee eclair - spectacular!! read more

Did not like much. It's pricey and the salad I paid $14 dollars went bad the next day. I just bought to be able to eat next day for my roadtrip .i don't believe it's made fresh daily. The croissant was hard the next day, Costco croissants last more and I buy 10 for the price of one " French" one. read more

Perfect French bread with delicious filling. There's no extra filling. Like a deli sandwich. They want you to enjoy the taste of the breads. It's just a perfect mix of bread and filling with toppings and sauce. The baguette is very crispy and fresh. Almost the same as you would get in Paris. Definitely worth it if you enjoy the flavors of good food. read more

I need to have a moment before I start this review because I feel very lucky to have stumbled on this gem! We stopped by on a Friday morning to find them fairly business. On display you see fresh bread, sweets, and sandwiches. My eyes were drawn to the pastries. Almost too pretty to eat. I couldn't decide so I went with the strawberry eclair and the passion fruit mousse. Both were absolutely amazing that the eclair oh my so good the best I've ever had. My husband decided to try one of their sandwiches the Milano, I don't usually eat cold sandwiches so I didn't have e any intention of trying it let alone being envious I didn't order one. Let's talk about the bread, crunchy outside soft inside. You can tell they use high quality ingredients here. We just left and I'm already planning to come back tomorrow locals are lucky! read more

This place was amazing and now not great! The owner really needs to take a hard look at what they are doing? The croissants were longer now small and they charge for raspberry but there is hardly any! I am so disappointed as this place was my go to but not anymore! read more

Parking is super easy because there are entrances on both sides of traffic. Very cute ambiance with indoor and outdoor seating. My opinion is that a croissant should be soft, buttery and flaky... these were not. Chocolate pastry was good but nothing special, flavor and texture was a miss with the almond raspberry pastry as the top is almonds but the raspberry is a spread added to the pastry sliced in half... not enough raspberry spread to make up for the dry pastry. Definitely a little pricey for what you get. (I went early enough in the day that the pastries should have still been fresh and not have been sitting out all day). read more

I love you, French Bakery. I am a local and regular probably visiting 4-5 days a week for my morning coffee and croissant. The young staff in the front are so sweet and work efficiently to get orders for the stores long lines. The coffee is AMAZING and they always get your specific order correct, with extra care to the details. Yummy croissants and other offerings too. I'm grateful to have this establishment close to my home! read more

I stopped here looking for a pastry to go...got 4 eclairs, baguette, 2 quiches and a ham and cheese sandwich and a croissant to try as it was my first time and the were getting close to closing for the day. Everything was delicious!!! The baguette was just out of the oven, I eat some on my way home, the crispy crust with the soft interior just perfect!! A bit expensive. read more

The food was awesome! The ambiance and customer service is top notch. I had a almond raspberry croissant that was a work of art. Raspberry, almond and butter a superb combination for the taste buds. We had a cappuccino with a nice heart made in the foam also delicious. We purched other backed goods including a baguette which didn't make it to the car before we broke into it. Just a woderful experience. read more

Great cappuccino, very average croissant. Yeah, I've been to France where we gain 10lbs eating croissants, so I have had authentic croissant and this ain't it. It is very average. The whole croissant is soft like a grocery store variety and not lightly crisp on the outside. So don't go out of your way to go here. I ordered an oat milk cappuccino and that was very good though not the best ive ever had in the area. Sometimes French bakeries don't have plant milks so I'm grateful for the non-dairy vegan option. They have a shady outdoor patio area for a nice place to drink your coffee or eat your sandwich but we didn't stay. read more

The French Bakery - Standard croissant. No better than a good grocery store variety. - Bakeries Near Me - Delray Beach, Florida

If you want the goods you gotta get there early! Obviously baked goods are best fresh but they will also sell out of many things by 11am. I had the pistachio croissant and it was fantastic! We also brought a loaf of bread to take home. The coffee is fine but not the draw. Seating is limited with tiny tables inside and slightly larger tables outside; I would recommend ordering to go. read more

Pastries are divine, my favorite baguette with Brie, apple, honey is so good you don't want it to finish.

Good morning indeed! For #FirstTasteFriday I made my first stop at The French Bakery. It's a shop I have driven past twice every workday for two years...but never stopped. So glad I did. The ham egg and cheese on a croissant (Sunrise Special) was the stuff a good morning is made of! This is no fast food egg patty...this is an honest to goodness real cracked egg. It's the little things that make these trips to the mom and pop establishments so good. can't wait to go back and try one of their sweet options. Cinnamon Roll perhaps? read more

Updated review; i returned a couple times and have been impressed with the food. The pistachio croissant is really delicious. The chocolate croissant was underwhelming. The breakfast sandwiches were delicious. This place gets super busy as soon as they open. Breakfast is available 8:30-10:30 AM and lunch sandwiches begin to be available at 10:30 AM. read more
