Baker Street — Restaurant in Puducherry

Baker Street, the French delicacy concept store in Pondicherry isn’t popular namesake. The place actually delivers some stellar baked goods that is world class, if not fabulously French.

The menu of this indoor cafe is a mix of French sweet and savoury goodies, ranging from baguette sandwiches, croissants, eclairs, macaroons, burgers, pizza, quiche, and much more.

I was overwhelmed with the items on display and could not decide what to have and what not to.

After much thought, I decided to pack a creamy chicken baguette sandwich, some decadent chocolate eclairs, a mixed bag of French macaroons, to go. We reached chennai that evening and reserved these for our dinner.

The chicken baguette sandwich was a deliciously made creamy chicken generously spread on the mini baguette slice, with some lettuce for crunch. It was absolutely delicious, with the hard baguette competing with the superbly well made creamy chicken chunks, a must try.

The Chocolate Eclair was a decadence in every bite, creamy, chocolatey, slightly eggy, but a marvellous dessert, another must try.

The macaroons were okay, a decent version, probably I expected a little more than what wifey makes at home.

We duck pick up some jabs with interesting combinations like apple cinnamon, again a must recommend to pick up a few.

What was not so pleasant was the non-French cafe ambience, the crowd and the staff, who were doing too many things than focusing on one customer at a time.

Overall #apjprecommends Baker Street heavily as a must visit in Pondicherry

Definitely coming back to try their wide menu in both savoury and decadent desserts, and you must too

Covid Update - There were transparent sheets and acrylic barriers to keep the walk-in public and the food, all staff were masked and with gloves while...

Time for a real review. Summary - One of the worst bakeries and food. Don't go by reviews.

Went to this bakery based on so many so called hyped reviews. We went with great enthusiasm and ordered Veg burger and Blueberry cheese cake. At first the guy behind the counter said Veg burger is not readily available right now, we will make it now. After 20 minutes we asked again and he said in progress. Again after 30 minutes when I tried to check, he ran away and didn't say anything. I got frustrated and after 5 more minutes I said cancel my order, he said wait we are making it and ran away without saying how much time and without any courtesy whatsoever. It finally came after 45 minutes of waiting and guess what it was fully burnt from inside 😂 When confronted with him, he said the burnt Aloo tikki is made on Dosa tawa and it is expected as whatever we got😒. Completely unexpected response from him, he is justifying fully burnt tikki. Coming to chessecake, well this is personal choice but I would say it's 5/10. Wile paying the bill I again tried to tell the guy how disappointed we are in the service and their shitty burger, his reaction was quote - unquote "Ohh okay". I got so mad and angry, just went out of that shitty place after paying for 320 rs or so for the shitty burger we didn't even ate. Overall I could have given negative stars to this bakery but there is no way to do that. Utter disappointment and completely unsatisfactory services and responses. Never going to go back here. And I would suggest readers to avoid this BS place as reviews do not match...

Wonderful place for baking lovers...
