Paris Baguette — Restaurant in Aurora

I have been going to several various Paris baguettes overs the years. I visited this one before my husband’s birthday and got him a strawberry cream cake and various pastries. And my husband came back here to get me my birthday cake just the other day. In terms of food and quality of the food, I never understand the poor reviews. There has not been one pastry or food item that I have purchased that I don’t like, then again when I find something I like, I tend to stick to it and I haven’t tried every single food item they sell. I love their very berry pastry (honestly this is a favorite for me), their mini strawberry lemon cream croissant and their croissant donut are also delicious. I love their quiches when they have them.

Their strawberry cream cake is light and delicious. So is their blueberry yogurt cake. The cranberry chicken sandwiches is a favorite of mine.

I’m not a coffee or tea drinker so I can’t comment on their beverages.

Anyone hating on this bakery’s flavor, please note this is an Asian Parisian style bakery. Their pastries are very light, not overly sweet but sweet enough and very delicious. If you want a dense overly rich piece of cake this is not the place to go, nor is it their bakery style.

In terms of staff and service, I usually order togo either through their app or quickly run in and fill a tray and run out. I never have had an issue with people being rude to me but I tend to buy a lot of pastries so maybe that is why. Usually when I stop by I fill up 1-2 boxes with pastries.

To address availability of products, most bakeries close early and sell out most of their best items earlier in the day. This is normal. It’s the early bird that gets to the worm. If you want a huge selection of pastries come before it gets too late (before 2/3). Otherwise they have a selection of sandwiches, wraps and salads later in the day. I would rather go somewhere that sells out of majority of their product, that way when I come back the next day I’m not getting day old food. Paris baguette prides itself on delivering fresh food. I have eaten their items 3-5 days after purchasing them and they are still as delicious as when their are freshly made. That is because they are selling freshly made items daily.

So far my only con to give is I’m too addicted to their desserts. Their pastries are a little on the pricey side but conform with similar bakeries selling similar items. In my opinion the price as of right now is worth what I am getting, so to me this is not a problem.

Anyway, I give this...

May 2025 9am quick fill-up. My favorite, Walnut Cream bread already out but, thankfully, cashier checked and was able them as my to-go. Always love their fruit tarts and almond croissant.

Dec 2024 Sadly, am lowering my rating in terms of Service. Have noticed in my last visits, the decline and lack of effort/efficiency in some of the front line staff.

Case in point, was there early morning, asked if there were more Walnut Cream Bread as only 1 was left on display. The staff refilling (who was also 1 of the cashier, just replied to me, no, there were still some at the back, with not a care in her tone nor taking the initiative to say, she'd get more and be right back. Such are 1 of the measures of customer service. One, positive, the other cashier (a younger lady), was very warm and polite. Still ♥️ Paris Baguette and will continue to come hopefully, not encountering the same staff.

Nov. 2024 To-go: Thanksgiving pastries to-go. Got a variety, ALL 👍 Still disappointed that they discontinued the egg tarts, 1 of our favorites. Glad they still have Cheese tarts. Today's new taste was the Walnut bread roll and it's going to be another favorite!

Original Review: Location: Gardens on Havana

WIDE VARIETY of baked goodies and in the 2x (so far) I have visited, freshly made.

Have tasted about 15 items and all are 👍

MUST haves: Egg Tart Cream Cheese Pastry Pesto Pizzeta Crab Meat Croquettes

Let me say that everything is 👍

The store is very bright in soothing, whites, buttery and blue tones. Very clean!

Service is very professional and friendly.

Will definitely be a weekly treat. Thank you for opening...

I am so sad. I discovered this place last week and fell in love, I have already been three times and always drive out of my way for it because it is no where near my house. Today, I picked up an online order and when I got home, realized they missed one of my slices. I called right away. Nayeska answered and was very nice and kept putting me on hold to speak with a manager. I was told they cant confirm or deny my “story” and that I would need to come in tomorrow morning. I asked if they has security cameras and they said yes and they could look at me leaving with the cake. Then, I was put on hold and when they came back, they said the security cameras are down today. I asked for Nayeska’s name as well as the manager (who was speaking spanish) and was told I couldn’t have the managers name because they werent there. I said isnt that who you have been speaking to and Nayeska said yes, but over the phone. I then asked if I could have an email to send photos of my boxes and cake to (because you can clearly tell no more slices would fit in the box) as well as a photo of my recipt, I was willing to provide whatever “proof” they wanted. Nayeska said she was then handing the phone to her manager to give me the email. They manager then told me just to come in tomorrow. I started to explain how far I lived and that I wanted an email, and in the middle of my sentence she said goodbye and hung up. I am so sad because their treats are delicious but I can not support a business that treats their...
