Step into a true boulangerie de quartier, an artisanal neighborhood bakery that prides itself on organic ingredients and traditional sourdough. Here, you will taste two perfect French classics: a piece of their baguette tradition and a flaky pain au chocolat.
A true family-owned Montmartre institution that has been serving locals since 1889.
