Cafe Paris San Carlos Reviews
What a cute bakery! My husband and I stopped by on a whim and we will definitely be coming back! Ashley and Johnny were super helpful and were so patient while we ordered. We ended up trying the blueberry matcha — 10/10 must try!
It’s a self service bakery, perfect for a quick bite. Loved the quite ambiance and delicious bakery item. Fruit pastry and strawberry croissant were so delicious and appetizing. Highly recommended
Amazing food! It definitely reminds me of the many pastery shops you find in the Paris area. I have only been in town for two days on a business trip, and I have stopped in here three times. It is probably a good thing I do not live in the area. :)
This place is phenomenal. The service is efficient and servers are so welcoming. The food is delicious and the price for the items are reasonable. The place is clean, and I hope it stays that way. I highly recommend this cafe shop.
Super cute inside, lots of seating. The staff was very friendly and helpful. My ice coffee was so delicious!

This was the best establishment I have ever been to it is so clean and I was helped by the best lady available she made an amazing espresso this truly made my day
Uri and Bliss were amazing. It was an unexpected celebration, and I didn’t have a pre-order for the cake. Luckily, there was a beautiful cake ready to go, and thanks to Uri and Bliss, I was still able to get it customized on the spot. Amazing customer service—thank you both for making it possible!
Amazing place with an incredible staff! Everything here is excellent, and the presentation makes it even better. Special shoutout to Michael and the entire team working today for their outstanding customer care!

I have nothing but glowing reviews for Paris Baguette! The coffee shop is so pretty and the pastries are so delectable! We get all our birthday cakes from here. You must try the Chocolate Hazelnut Nutella or the Salted Caramel cake when they're both in season! Truly best cakes in the Bay area. Its always amazing when the staff are so helpful and friendly. The Manager Leah is just amazing She's so welcoming and professional and goes above and beyond and that's why we're so loyal to Paris Baguette ❤️
I liked the place was surprised that there’s a PB in this area when I was visiting the next door ice cream shop. It was clean and has nice comfy atmosphere but as any other PB in the bay area the food is not fresh compared to PB in NJ or NYC. I think they bake the pastry once or twice a week for the whole week and for sure this downgrade the whole experience for sure. That’s why I gave the food 3 Stars
Always great pastries, cakes, and drinks! Not too sweet!
There are plenty of seats, and the inside looks great. They have lots of pastries and if you are pestry lover, u must visit this place, and the coffee tastes really good.

This has been my favorite coffee shop in the area despite San Carlos having at least 4 other coffee shops in the proximity. Why you ask? I love their coffee and their pastries, especially the Almond Croissant is a crowd pleaser. I do agree with some of the reviewers here that the place can be a little unorganized with long wait times or completely forgotten orders or even wrong orders -- but it's more likely due to be short-staffed and the new staff who are still getting up to speed. The place is usually cleaning, but the
I tried out Paris Bakery this morning, I bought 4 pastries and their vegan chocolate chip muffin. I was disappointed to realize on arriving home that my muffin was two days out of date. I’m surprised they are still selling items 2 days past their use by. I ate it anyway and it still tasted good although I would like to see if a fresher item would have been moister or if there is any difference between fresh and expired. Overall it’s a cute albeit expensive bakery, I would try it again but they should up their game on replacing expired products

Love this place that is actually a Korean brand- not french! They’re quite consistent as i’ve visited different branches in other states. They have quite a selection of both sweet and savory treats, there is an attention to detail when it comes to the food they serve. Got a birthday cake as a present and it came with candles, a cake slicer with a matchstick to light the candles! I mean- they thought of everything! Love their hot chocolate and you can taste the quality in it- made from Ghirardelli chocolate. Tried their peppermint mocha though i couldn’t taste any peppermint in it. In all, their strength is in the food they serve - carefully blending the east with some european flair.

All about the esthetics but horrible quality. We got a cream cake and found it inedible. The icing tasted like crisco was used in the cream. So gross. Never again.
Know what you’re getting. I know the bread and pastries here are not exactly the healthiest but I am still surprised to see the tons of ingredients in a single butter cream bread. Makes me wonder if this is even bread at all… and this cost me $4-$6 😐

Poor staff was overwhelmed. I think there were maybe 3 total handling online orders, staffing the kitchen, register, trash, and stocking. May have been an off day but the trash was overflowing.
There were many small bugs flying inside the glass display case in the middle of the store. It made the food look very unsanitary. I hope the store can improve their cleanliness and hygiene standards.

Unable to honor special gender reveal request of adding a fruit flavor filling to a pastel de nada. Pretty easy request. Bummed by their lack of effort here.
I get a coffee and they add cinnamon without asking me? That tasted like straight water. The service was horrible too, employee saw me standing and walked away and avoided confrontation, almost like he knew lol. I took a sip and threw it straight to the trash, went to peets coffee instead, they never fail
