French Pastry Cafe & More — Restaurant in Aspen

The French cafe has now moved to the Aspen Business Center across from the Aspen Airport. I went there for the 1st time last week and LOVED IT. ...since then, I've been back twice this week! :-) I had the Le Beouf sandwich (hope that's spelled correctly) and it was wonderful! The panini bread was crisp and marked, the mozzarella was oogey gooey, the meat seasoned perfectly - add some tomato and onion, and WOW. The sandwiches come with potato chips and fruit slices....makes for a filling meal. I did purchase pastries for dessert (Apple tart and the Paradise) - sadly I haven't been able to try them yet, still full from my lunch! I can say that their chocolate creme eclairs are to die for!

Tip for you: they accept cards & cash, but if you're paying with a card, you must spend at least $15.

Try it out if you're in the area! Well...

They have probably the best cinnamon roll I have ever had in my life. Is incredibly the best because is soft inside, crunchy outside,. With perfect icing and enough flavor. Indeed, everything else they offer is amazing too: the almond croissants, the butter croissants, the turnovers, tarts, coffee, paninis..., I mean, everything is delicious. The young lady who works as server/cashier is great: bilingual, educated, funny and always smile, she even jokes with me about my facination with the cinnamon rolls. What can I say? After traveling for 20 countries I am sure this is my favorite spot for a breakfast.

Thanks there, you...

Very disappointed. Unlike what the sign that says "keeping the place clean", right next to the glass case where they keep the breads and danish, the person who was working on Saturday(9/10/22) was not using any gloves and touching the bread/orders by her hands. She was the only one who was ringing the customers also, so totally unsanitary. It is so hard to find good workers now days. When we asked to wear a glove, she gave us a disgusted face. She needs to go. We hate to see her damaging such a great bakery.

We were not the only one who noticed what...
