What People Are Saying
from Google & Yelp"I stopped by Parfait Paris on Coronado Island curious to try their cookie–croissant hybrid, especially having had versions of this pastry in Paris and Amsterdam. This one missed the mark for me. Rather than a croissant with cookie dough baked into the lamination, it felt more like a standard cookie placed on top of a pastry that didn’t truly resemble a croissant, with additional soft cookie filling inside. It was fine, but not comparable to the versions I’ve enjoyed abroad. Service was unfortunately lacking. I was the only customer in the shop and waited several minutes without acknowledgment. When I did order, the pastry was offered warmed, but it still came out cold. At around $10, it felt overpriced for both the execution and the experience."
"Criminally underrated. This is by far the best crêpe I've had in San Diego yet. Authentically French, lots of pâtisseries et cafés to pick from, high quality & fresh ingredients. This is why we love "hole-in-the-wall" places here in SD, they're always phenomenal, crucial contributors of culture and flavor, and this is no exception. If you want or need French pastry in your life, go here. Fantastique."
"Stopped here for breakfast after taking the ferry to the island. It was a great decision because the food was amazing. This egg and cheese breakfast sandwich on the croissant was absolutely delicious 😋. I had a sparkling lemonade as well."
"A friend recommended us this place, coffee is pretty good their pastries/bread are delicious."
"I have been there twice to get my favorite crepe from Diana, not only did she serve me my favorite crepe but also her generosity and positivity. She is absolutely sharing the “bestness” with my favorite crepe. Fully recommended! 🤝"
"The ice cream, macarons, and food plus the friendly staff make my experience here always so enjoyable! plus it is right next to the ocean, so you can stroll..."
