"A little French gem in New York City's fashion District. Coffee is very good but it's the pastries that you would come for and they are excellent. "Baked with generosity" could be their tagline. Take their almond croissant, it's l well sized, has ample filling and is stopped with an abundant amount of toasted and sliced almonds. Far too many of the commercially baked almond croissant have a smattering the filling and a few almond slices on top to indicate what it is rather than to add flavor. Prices are a bit steep to match their quality, even for New York but worth a try. A small and perhaps silly peeve: I understand there are a number of these now in New York but I find the name a bit incongruous, especially where you would expect to have an international clientele. In other words, one could be forgiven for expecting a little of the feel of Avignon . But apart from serving French pastries, there is very little about the place that reflects its French namesake."

"Wasted my Moxy hotel credits at this Chelsea location on a small $11 parfait and $8 americano that was more water than anything. Service was mid and I recommend going somewhere else."

"This is such a welcome addition to the neighborhood. Great, chic little spot to grab coffee and pastry. Also amazing bread to take away."

"I stopped in two mornings to try a couple of different lattes. It was so convenient to where I was staying. The service was decent and the lattes hit the spot."

"I got get why it is so busy, most likely hotel.Staff is entitled and slightly rude. They play some stupid game of let’s run out of everything to create hype."
