I came her after dinner and it was delicious. I purchased a Madeline, Oreo cheesecake and two mini cookies. The place is beautiful inside and great lighting. The mini cookies were ok; a bit hard for my taste. I ate the Madeline the next day and it was soft and buttery. It was not the best Madeline; I had but it was good. The star of the show was the Oreo cheesecake. It was so delicious and fresh. I regret only getting one slice of cake. The place has a lot of lighting and I look forward to returning.
Went there for an afternoon break the cappuccino today place was full of tempting desert each so good we couldn't choose great place to stop by
Nice establishment a width variety of cakes cookies and pastries. They have chairs to sit in the back. Very clean, neat, and organized. I ordered a medium cold brew ice coffee for $3.00. I asked for liquid sugar. I was told it would be on the side it wasn't. The barista was very nice he apologized and prepared for me some liquid sugar. The coffee it was not strong, tasted like regular ice coffee, and it was not sweet. I was a little disappointed.
Line wasn't too long and there was quite a few free seating at Saturday afternoon. We tried: Cream bougatsa: it was alright but not necessarily something I'd get again. Confirmed that I'm not the biggest fan of this. The pastry was as crispy and the custard as sweet as I've seen this dessert be, but not crispy or sweet enough for me. Madeleine: this was surprisingly a highlight. Would get again for the sponginess and there is no fruit taste which I don't like in my Madeleines. Crunchy: 10 year anniversary so it was only $5. Full of layers and good textures. I can see the hype. Creme brulee cheesecake: as all the reviews said, no creme brulee coating but it might be referring to the cheesecake itself? Much more of a vanilla flavor rather than cream cheese. I'm more of a purist though so wouldn't get this again. Fruit tart: Another highlight - flaky tart and good vanilla custard. Much better than Martha's.
Good strong black coffee. A year ago, I had the cappuccino and it was nice. Yesterday, Thursday May 16, 2024, I enjoyed a Spinach Pie, called something like Spinach Baugtista (?)--very nice. I did ask for it to be heated, and altho they said yes, it was cold, but I ate it, and it was very good even cold LOL. I enjoyed my chocolate fudge brownie with walnuts. It was rich and delicious. I actually cut it in half and enjoyed half and then later that evening had the other half what a great deal it was yummy. Today, Friday, May 17, I enjoyed a ham & cheese croissant, heated up, and it was delicious. Also had a small black hot coffee. The small size is maybe 6 ounces, but it's a strong coffee, IMHO (In my humble opinion) so that size is fine for me. I always enjoy a visit here when I visit Bayside. It is a lovely interior and that pulls me in to enjoy something. I like it here!! :)
Cute cafe with the nicest staff ever! We got the tiramisu, crème burlee cheesecake, mini chocolate croissant, and iced Nutella latte. The tiramisu was too rich for me and the meringue was cute but didn't seem to fit with the tiramisu. The crème burlee cheesecake wasn't really crème burlee and was more like a raspberry jam cheesecake. Nothing special about the croissant or latte.
From the moment you step in it's as if you've been transported into a little slice of heaven. The smell is not only inviting, it's enchanting. Tied up with the decor, background music, on-site bakery where (iykyk) you can't help but watch the artist at play and to top it all off, served on a silver plater. Come on! Staff were friendly and not at all pushy when my friend and I weren't able to make up our minds since it was my first time here. We had the chocolate noir (omg, so decadent, rich, a must for all chocolate lovers!) and my all time fave (please don't mess this up ) tiramisu, they did NOT disappoint despite it being an Italian dessert! Coffee, mascarpone, lady fingers and cocoa powder all to perfection AND the lattes were to perfection! Oh man, you totally forget you're even in Queens when you're at The French Workshop, even that you're in NY for that matter. I've already made a big fuss about it to my social circle and planning on my next trip which cannot come soon enough (but at the same time, let me calm down because... sugar... lol) Btw, price point, you'd think it'd cost you an arm and a leg for what you're getting but nope, even on that it's well priced which is also a huge plus! Pretty sure we can all agree (after checking it out for yourselves of course) that we've paid more for MUCH less! Hope y'all check it out and enjoy as much or more than I did
Very clean establishment with a wide array of pastries, sandwiches and coffee choices. Staff was friendly and pleasant and service was fast. I am glad I stumbled upon this beautiful establishment.
Best pastry spot! I would definitely come back! I tried their creme brûlée and it was the best thing ever. Melts in your mouth with the right amount of caramel on the top. Not too sweet. I couldn't stop eating it! Came back and got this chocolate dessert, forgot the name but it was chocolate heaven. Normally, chocolate is too much for me, but this was not too sweet or chocolately at all! Their fruits are also super sweet
