My family had a birthday brunch here, and everything was great. We sat outside even though the weather wasn't great, and the service was still very attentive. The quiche, tarts, and coffees are my favorites. My husband tried the duck, and he said that it was very good. We will be back soon.

A local gem! Le French Cafe has delicious food and the staff is extraordinary, the owner, Agnes, is the nicest person ever. One of the best places for breakfast in Boulder hands down!! Quiches are the best I have had since leaving Europe. Exquisite baked goods with croissants that are perfection. My weakness is Jambon-Beurre and holy smokes Le French has the best baguette I have ever had in my life! Le French is a must! Come for an amazing experience and you will keep coming back for the energy, food, and service! Merci Beaucoup, Madame Agnes!

Delicious pastries, amazing service, cute patio! We had a wonderful breakfast - were greeted by the friendly staff and were checked in on multiple times throughout the meal. The Nutella crepe was amazing and the chocolate almond croissant tasted freshly baked and was warm and delicious. Also great scrambled eggs and cappuccino. Love this place!

New favorite cafe in Boulder. Delicious dessert options, but the savory was my favorite. Highly recommend the Cannois. The eggplant is a beautiful touch! Crepes are delicious. Their brie sandwich was a bit dry. Can't go wrong with desserts here!
