I bought a small cherry pastry. It was moldy & when I showed the staff they were incredibly rude & tried to convince me it was just cherry (despite it being green & fuzzy!). The staff replaced it but didn't offer any kind of apology & were super rude when we left. The pastry didn't even taste like cherry. 0/10

Great bakery with wonderful products. Their speciality seems to be Meringue, but I am also a fan of their brioche. Don't miss it!
