La Bergamote (Chelsea)

Wonderful pastries! Hard to find good pastries that remind me of France but this shop surely does!

Excellent onion soup

Great restaurant in Chelsea. The dessert and pastry selection is to die for. The Cajun chicken for dinner was also fabulous. Nice wine selection and great service.

Very good food and service

The pastries were meh; the tiramisu had no coffee and the crème brûlée wasn’t brûlée! BUT they do sell Choco Prince cookies and other classics cookies important from France. You should check those out but ignore their pastries.

Perfect destination for authentic French Brunch.

There is no shortage of quality french bakeries and patisseries in NYC. If you like to indulge in a buttery croissant or a fruit tarte from time to time, then you'll have your go to spot. Even though La Bergamote is a fair hike from our apartment, it is a family fav. A sidewalk breakfast on a warm spring Sunday, a birthday celebration rasberry tart, a handful of macarons, une galette des rois, a French ham and brie sandwitch - you cant go wrong with any of these standards. Service can tend on the slow side, and prices are, like seemingly everything in Manhattan these days, high. But at least you get what you pay for, and thats top quality French treats.
