Paris Baguette

Clean, friendly, fast, genuinely service minded staff, and oh, no flies. So, I just went in for a Almond croissant and coffee, which are very tasty I must add, but I got a new FAV NOW....the Almond pastry, weekly bucket listed. I wonder if I can get it warmed up next time.

Every time I come to Castro Street, I stop here. Outstanding pastries and a nice atmosphere. I’m a fan of Biscoff Cookies, so I had to try one of their creations. It did not disappoint.

Limited vegan options. Only found two items which were good. If they had vegan pastries or cakes etc. would have liked it more.

On July 28, 2025, at around 8:00 PM, I visited Paris Baguette. I observed multiple flies landing on the bread displayed in the case. I requested to speak with the manager regarding this issue, but the staff stated that no manager was present and refused to address or remove the contaminated food from display. This is a serious food safety concern, and I request an immediate inspection of the facility.

Fast service! Fresh pastries and a huge variety. We had a chai tea that was a bit milky and low on the tea flavor, but still had a good flavor. Mochi donuts were fresh and tasty. The place is clean and can clear a line quickly.

I've been to this Paris Baguette many times, usually for drinks & other times for the pastries. If you've been to other locations, then this one is pretty similar. I have some friends who enjoy the espresso & other drinks (using Lavazza coffee beans), but I've only ever found them "good" at best. My highlights include the cookie butter and chocolate hazelnut drinks, while the hot chocolate and Korean iced milk coffee were let-downs. In downtown Mountain View, there are better places for coffee, but Paris Baguette is fine if you have promos and/or want to pick up the baked goods. Speaking of them, there are a variety of sweet & savory items to choose, so you'll probably find something you like. My favorites include the croissant donuts and cream breads, but I like to sample new things too. Regarding ambiance, this location is pretty good, with ample seating & free Wi-Fi if you'd like to do some work. And then as for service, it's also usually good but can vary depending on who's at the counter. But I haven't had any bad experiences.

I had a morning coffee with a friend. There's a great variety of hot and cold drinks, baked goods and sandwiches. Everything is presented in a very delightful and inviting way. Service is friendly and professional.
