  Thanks for staying open when even McDonald's and Starbucks threw in the towel. We got a spectacular French breakfast and coffee along with a lot of other hopeful diners. Hats off to the staff dealing with constant power outages.

  Yum; wonderful breakfast spot; eggs on a baguette - yes pleased - and the eggs were perfectly cooked too; love this spot (Arlington) though the one in 5 points is nice too (just busier).

  Great pastries and coffee. It's nice to have breakfast on the patio.

  Classy. Tucked away, half a block from the Arlington, you will enjoy this small cafe with delicious pastries and breakfast options. Ample bicycle parking, so walk or ride up State Street to this charming, off the beaten path, hidden jewel. Deserves 10 stars.

  We had a chocolate croissant and a lemon pie to share with my wife but she almost are them all because it was so good. Everything looks good and is good. We definitely recommend the place.

  So you're reading a review for a dessert place
  Everything looks like it's too good to be true. You just stand there, in front of the glass thingy seeing all the chocolaty goodness. Wondering if you're going to need to sell your liver to pay for the bill. You finally decide to take a second mortgage and try ONE macaroon. Maybe the green one, cause it looks cute and you read that it says pistachio on the label; But mostly because it has been screaming at you since you went inside the shop.
  Wow, it tastes like heaven, you get an urge to lick your fingers, but you don't. As soon as the last bit goes down your throat, you remember you haven't paid yet. You start planning out your escape so you keep your liver. Playing out the options.. Is he going to run, is she strong enough to hold the door closed?
  But you're thinking it too much and suddenly the bill is handed to you.. Dammit you think. This is it, and not in the Michael Jackson sense of the word.. Maybe a lung, cause you don't smoke and have 2. You take the bill in your hands and something happens. It's not crazy expensive. Its fine. You smile.
  Knowing everything is fine you order a few more, then a few chocolaty nutella goodness, then some french pastry.
  - You get back to the hotel happily knowing, that stuffing your face with desserts is worth maxing out your credit card.

  The best palce for breakfast and lunch. Food and pastries are to die for. Expect to be waiting in the line when busy. Be patient because it's worth the wait.

  The croissant sandwich was good. Coffee not so much. Long wait to order but decent speeds to get food. Over all this is like a small star bucks.
