Probably the closest you’ll get to a french croissant without crossing the border. Their Pain au chocolate are amazing and you have to try the “Franzbrötchen”, which actually comes from Hamburg and isn’t easy to get in Munich.

Friendliest and kindest owners. Croissants and pain au chocolat are just the best in town.

The best French bakery I've been to in Munich. All pastries made freshly of French butter, baked several times a day so that guests can get them directly warm from the oven. Really high quality products that the owners family choose, make the taste unforgettable. Will surely come back again when in Munich.

This is hands down one of the finest French bakeries I’ve come across in Munich. Every pastry is made fresh using real French butter and baked throughout the day, often served warm straight from the oven. The exceptional quality and care the owners and their family put in makes each bite truly memorable.

Lovely place, lovely folks, delicious well-made pastries; soft and buttery in the inside, with a crunchy exterior. Americano is balanced and tasty.

Excellent pain aux chocolat ! The price was a bit high for me but it is definitely a good “treat yourself, you deserve it” kind of breakfast. The local is cute and if you go on a nice day, you should definitely have a seat outdoors !!
