Le Panier

Nice French bakery conveniently located in pike place. Frequented by tourists but the pastries and dessert are authentic and delicious! We got to try raspberry macaroon, lemon macaroon, and palmier. The macaroons are light, fruity, just right amount of sweetness. Crunchy to bite with a slightly chewy interior. They are a joy! The palmier is delightful too! Truly a gem of a place. Must stop by if you’re in the area!

The only thing this restaurant is missing is seat. Not only do they not have seats but currently you can not even stand inside at the tables and eat inside, that's a bummer. The variety of pastries are amazing. This is the first time I've had a meringue treat and I love it.

I’ve had the best almond croissant at @lepanierbakery! Crunchy, flaky on the outside and moist, flavorful on the inside. Toasted almonds on top completed it perfectly, too! Haven’t had an almond croissant that’s not overly sweet, and actually tasted like almonds in a very long time.
