French Memories Bakery — Restaurant in Cohasset

Everything in the bakery cases looked so delicious I could hardly choose. I wanted to try one of everything! On top of the incredible selection of pastries, cookies, breads, cakes, and other goodies, the service was second to none. Cashiers were friendly and eager to talk to customers. And let me tell you, this place had plenty of customers when I was here but the wait was nonexistant. It didn't take long at all to get my order situated despite the afternoon rush at hand. It's easy to see why this bakery is so popular with the locals: there's nothing not to love. So, in conclusion, if you are looking for something closer to a European style cafe with a laid-back and friendly atmosphere, this is the place to go. If I lived within walking distance, I'd be here all the time, but sadly it will have to remain a once-in-a-while treat for me. If you live close by, don't hesitate to take advantage of that and try it out. You will definitely thank me...

My partner and I come to French Memories almost every weekend. We have tried so many different pastries and have had so much fun getting to pick them out and box them up. My personal favorites from this bakery are the almond croissants, strawberry croissant with custard, chocolate eclairs (they also have vanilla and coffee), and a puff pastry with hazelnut filling (not sure what it’s called). It’s always extremely busy, but the staff handle it amazingly. The food is very well priced, fresh every time that we get it, and perfectly baked. Please go here if you want authentic...

Where to start? We tried 5 of their tarts: mango, pear, mixed berry, apple cinnamon, and raspberry almond. I didn't care for the raspberry pits in the mixed berry or the raspberry almond, but other than that they were all delicious!! We also tried two of their croissants: cinnamon sugar and almond. Their almond croissant was yummy but it had too much almond paste and it was flaccid. Coffee was great too. I'm looking forward to visiting this...
