Paris Bakery Cafe

Yummy treats in a quaint corner cafe. Staff was super busy but stayed super friendly.

We dined in and I ate a cup of French Onion Soup that was flavorful, fresh, and just the perfect amount of cheese to soup ratio. My husband enjoyed his ham & cheese quiche. Both were just the right size for our lunch - filling but not overwhelming.

We both had a satisfying iced latte that we took with us along with some pastries to eat back in our hotel. The strawberry was fresh, juicy, sweet and perfect. The seasonal min pumpkin cake was a tiny bit dry but the soft pumpkin mousse counteracted it for a wonderful season treat.

Will be coming back again next time we are in town.

Pretty good place with plenty of pastries and bakery items to select from. They have patisserie, baked goods, bread, cookies and fresh sandwiches. They have nice inside and outside seating area.

We ordered veggie delight and they gave us a sandwich with everything that is possible to go inside veg sandwich! I have never had green beans in a sandwich. It was a bit overwhelming. We ordered almond croissant and plain croissant as well. Almond croissant wasn’t as flaky as I expected it to be. We also tried their Black Forest pastry which was okay. I would love more cherry to get the tartness and more chocolate in the sponge. It was a bit sweet and not very well balanced flavors.

But, this is a great place if you prefer more options around the area for lunch/ brunch or breakfast. They have nice coffee section too. Service was lovely and it was quick in an out even though there was a line.

The best all round bakery there is, bread, pastries, coffee, anything you get here is very good and there is alot to choose from. Great for breakfast or for grabbing some snacks and hitting Big Sur with.

The oldest bakery cafe in Monterey!
A place where you can bring back childhood memories and nostalgia.
Find the Pink Cake Box. I highly recommend the cream cheese croissant!

These croissants were amazing. So light and fluffy and the pain de chocolat was so delish! Loved every bite!

Chocolate chip cookies were really good too

Delicious treats and wonderful service. Very popular place. At times it’s very busy but you can call ahead and make an order or ask them to save you a specific item. I highly recommend this place.

Simply a gem! This is a pic from last month, but today I noticed just how much is on the menu. Pizza, sandwiches, quiches, and the coffee/tea is stellar. The brioche custards are a must, but everything I've had is top level.

Superb bakery. I cannot recommend it more highly. The staff is polite and quick; the sandwiches and pastries are delicious. We’re only here for a few days, but we’re 100% going again. Perfect for breakfast or lunch or just a snack. I had the spinach quiche, chocolate and peanut butter cookie (the small one). Loved both.

Great staff, the pastries are yummy except my Raspberry crossaint had a tiny amount of filling so it was basically a plain crossaint. Would definitely come back for pastry. I do not recommend the chicken pesto panini. Very messy and not any flavor.

I put 5 starts simply because there’s nothing better around. However, this place does have good sandwiches and decent pastry selection.
My favorite sandwiches are Cordon Blue and Veggie Delight. Out of the cake section, Black Forest is the best cake they have 🤤
