About

Le Far Breton operates as a traditional bakery and café specializing in authentic Brittany-style pastries and artisanal baked goods. The menu focuses on the signature far breton cake, characterized by its dense, custard-like texture and prunes, alongside an assortment of freshly prepared kouign-amann. Patrons find a selection of flaky butter croissants, fruit-filled tarts, and various sourdough breads baked daily to ensure consistent quality. The interior environment facilitates a focused culinary experience where the aroma of caramelized sugar and roasted coffee beans defines the sensory atmosphere. Counter service remains standard for those purchasing boxes of regional specialties or individual treats to consume on-site. The establishment prioritizes the precise execution of classic Breton techniques, resulting in a refined inventory of savory and sweet offerings that adhere strictly to historical French baking traditions.

Best pastries in the neighborhood. I was so sad when they closed down last summer, there are lots of little boulangeries around here but this place had the best croissants & chocolatines. Now that they're open again they're as good as ever, I'll be coming here all the time. The guy who runs it is super nice too.
