This place is awesome. It is small but packed with delicious treats. We have gone here for years– it is a must when we are in the area. So, I suggest you do what I do and try a little of everything. Grab a tray and some tongs to your right as you walk in the door and load up. Basically everything is good. If you see anything with red bean or sweet potato– trust me, you want it. The royal pudding is great, cheese cake, cookies etc. Look at the really cool cakes in the case too!!! I love the bubble tea here, Taro is my favorite. I also like the hot milk tea. So good. The staff is friendly and even when it is busy the line moves quickly. Everything is clean and I love that all the ingredients are listed on little cards with the items. This way you can be informed in case you have allergies etc. It is so much fun after eating up in the food court to come down stairs and pick out a bunch of treats.

Really amazing pastries. The selection of sweets and buns is awesome! The coffee is nice and strong and the variety of different hot/cold drinks is vast. I recommend getting an espresso, a pastry and enjoying them while people watching!

Typical Paris baguette located in the«Korean town» of Pennsylvania. It is in the basement level of Hmart shopping center. The staff here is friendly and nice. And there is plenty of seating available. I stayed here for 4 hours just studying and trying to get some work done. No one said anything to me. And it was a fairly quiet enough place to study in.

Love their baked goods. This place is pretty far from me but i make the trip to get some baked good every once in a while. You are not able to find their quality in chinatown. While chinatown bakery are good and cheap. ParisB is on the pricer side but the quality is worth it.

I love their bakeries. But so sad that they are expensive. I still went there a couple times a year. Last time was last week. Tp buy some croissants and a birthday cake. You can try everything and fell in love, it’s so good. 4 stars because the variety of the bakeries its always change. And they only bake a lityle bit each day. Also its quite pricey

I love Korean bakeries! I especially like this Paris Baguette because the cake selection and pastry selection are impressive. It also has a nice seating area and it doesn’t get too crowded that often. Their cakes are my favorite! I’ve tried several of them and they are so soft and not too sweet. They come in so many different flavors and the price is not too much for such good quality cake(around $ 30 for most of them). Most of the pastries I’ve tried have been excellent and fresh. Their green tea shaved ice is a must try! I don’t like shaved ice that are too sweet and sugary, but their green tea one very refreshing and has the perfect amount of sweetness. The one thing I tried here that I didn’t enjoy was the fruit shaved ice — it was way too sweet and the ingredients didn’t mesh well. Also, I’m not too impressed with their coffee — it’s just… coffee. The place is right next to Hmart shopping center so it’s convenient as well :)

I love this place and glad I found it. They have really good pastries. The cakes are not the most tastiest, but they sure are very pretty and are good enough to WOW the crowd.

I do believe that Paris Baguette has the most gorgeous pastries in Philadelphia. I’m surprised that they don’t have a location closer to the city. I mean a trip to H Mart is very exciting for sure but Paris Baguette is the guilty pleasure that nobody can deny stopping in. Everything in the store is awesome looking, the golden brown puff pastries with a glaze that gleams. Things like Tiramisu choux puffs, peach cream Danishes, royal puddings, red bean mochi donut, tiramisu cakes that is shaped like a coffee cup, everything is inviting and begs you to take them home. So why would I only give it a 3 stars? Today, I floated into the store and browsing around in a dream-like trance. After trying hard to control myself and only selecting a few items, I come to a line in the register. When it’s my turn the cashier seemed slightly irritated, an older Korean man went to ask him a question in Korean and he proceeded to raise his voice and said«ENGLISH! I don’t know what you want.» I was disturbed, he said it like the old man was at fault for not knowing the language. First of all, you’re in a Korean supermarket where the majority of the clientele are Korean and you don’t know the language. Second, how do you yell at the elderly like they are scum? They are at the very least your customer. I must have shown my disgust on my face, because this is when he rudely called his colleague that speaks the language to see what the old man wants. When you go through all the pretty things in the store, it’s a huge contrast to see the ugly attitude on display by a poorly trained, not give a damn staff. Also, quite a few things run out before noon or else I would have bought them all.

They have the best pastries! I’ve known them for their strawberry whipped cream filled croissants. And now they have one that has a peanut butter crumble on top! Yummy! Their cakes are awesome too and not too sweet and run for $ 25 – 35. Right in the Hmart shopping center, they have a small seating area where you can enjoy a pastry and cup of coffee after grocery shopping.

I just love everything about this place!!! Best pastries Cakes, and they do a Shaved ice situation that looks awesome!!! The staff are always friendly and it’s remarkably clean considering how much traffic they get. I cannot go to H Mart without stopping here! Do yourself a favor and give them a try, If you need a whole cake, they’re amazing! I think cakes are about 30 bucks and worth every penny.

Came here on a weekday morning around 10 am and the smell of freshly made baked goods immediately captured my heart. Since it was still early, we decided to came back later for dessert after lunch at Hmart food court upstairs. Came back around 12pm and even more baked goods were out. There was a constant flow of customers during lunch hour, but nothing too crazy in terms of long lines. The bakery have everything you can possibly want and need in your life. Macaroons, fruit tarts, Tiramisu, cream puffs, puddings, cakes, cookies, coffee, shaved ice, etc. Everything is looks amazing, so good luck deciding what you want. I would not get the $ 2 egg tarts, because you can get cheaper and bigger ones from Chinatown. Ended up getting Green Tea Red Bean shaved ice(cup ~$ 5) and blueberry cream filled cronut($ 3.50) to shared between two people. Definitely recommend the shaved ice, only criticism is that the ice was crystallized versus the fluffy snow texture. The cronut was delicious and very fresh! The airy texture and layers are better made the cronut at Swiss Haus. The blueberry cream filling oozes out with every bite, it can be too much and overly sweet, so I think less is more would be better. Overall, love this place! Highly recommend for dessert and for anyone w/a sweet tooth. Definitely get your next birthday cake here, because they are unlike any cake I’ve seen. I would pick this over Café Bene, because of the price and freshness and choice of pastries.

My husband and I came here to get a cake for a dinner party. There wasn’t much of a selection of the big cakes but we ended up getting a mocha chiffon cake and it was so delish. The flavor of the cake is almost like a tiramisu. The whipped cream was light and not overly sweet. The cake was light and not dense with a hint of coffee flavor. And the macaroons on top were so good, they were airy and chewy. We also purchased 2 croissant donuts, grand macarons, and fresh multi grain bread. Everyone at the dinner party loved the cake, not only the taste of it but the presentation of it. Staff was pretty friendly. Will defiantly be going back.

So many choices of different pastries. Individually packaged and yummy. I have been here a few times and each time it is super packed. I love that they have miniature bite size fancy Korean style baked goods. Makes sharing and tasting the many heavenly bite sized goodness. Miniature pancakes are pretty good and my fave are the cake slices. Worth the trip.

To my fellow lovers of sweet treats, Paris Baguette is a religious experience(Please refrain from judgement. If Hozier can compare his romantic relationship to the Catholic church, I can certainly spiritualize my commitment to desserts. I’m sure my relationship with all things sugary has outlasted any and all of his relationships. And most marriages for that matter). And on that note, you’re gonna want to strengthen your wrists before you begin your Paris Baguette adventure. That tray can get pretty heavy if you’re as wide-eyed as I was while perusing the cornucopia of confectionery(see pictorial evidence below). In order of deliciousness… 1. Fruit Tart 2. Almond Mascarpone 3. Tiramisu Pastry 4. Red Bean Donut 5. Canele The Canele was the only one I wouldn’t get again. Also, we got a Cream Brie Cheesecake to go(because five desserts between two people is not enough). If you like brie and don’t like overly sweet desserts, it’s for you. *Resumes wrist curls for next visit*

I drove all the way there about 30 minutes but then they gave me a different cake as I requested. And as they were handling the lady fingers they were handling the money. :/. Makes me really really disappointed at this place.

It’s lovely. I got a birthday cake for my very finicky 2nd grade nephew and he loved every bit of it. I loved that their favorite Auntie was able to introduce them to macarons, which the cake was so wonderfully decorated with. My brother and in-laws appreciated the thoughtfulness of the extra touches offered by the boulangerie such as including free candles a sturdy cake cutter(so you don’t have to hunt around for the one you can never find because you rarely user it) that has matches to light a bunch of candles, right in the handle. All the. things that I have tried and liked there: Pastries, bread(loaves, buns, crossiant), cream rolls, cakes, bean buns and birthday cakes!!! :) Side Note.: To those complaining about the limited stock here, I have to say — it’s in a freakin mall! Cut them some slack! I went to the Verizon there for some pretty basic crap and they don’t have a lot of the stuff that I am looking for, but I don’t sweat it — because it’s a mall! If you’re going to compare one business to another — compare apples to apples. Rate appropriately with your stars. It’s only fair.

Where do I begin? This place is amazing. It’s in the bottom of a little Korean mini-mall. You grab a tray and tongs and fill your tray with whatever you want. I filled a tray with 40 dollars worth of stuff and my friend did the same, haha! We had cronuts(very good but not the best) and other sweet pastries plus some of their savory hot dog and sausage pastries. Everything was excellent and extremely fresh but VERY rich — which is a good thing. I attached a pic of the savory items we baked up when we got home.

I’ve been there twice now within the last week. That should say a lot because I have a little drive to make it out there just for baked goods. Their croissant donuts are very delicious. I tried the blueberry one and it was moist, sweet and heavenly. Their other goods were good as well. Their cakes were very good because they weren’t that sweet. I’m not a fan of overly sweetened cakes. I would’ve given them 5 stars, however, their products are served in a «while supplies last» basis. It was disappointing because they don’t close until 10pm but a lot of their more popular goods were gone when I arrived at 4! Yes, they are a small bakery but I’d like to see more of the popular stuff being available. Other than that, great service and delicious baked goods.

I am in the minority on this one, but to me the name misrepresents the products and atmosphere of the 2 Paris Baguettes that I have visited. While the shop here is smallish and in the basement of the H Mart building, it is clean and has good service. Yet, the selection here is not as varied as in the plant in Edison, New Jersey, and the seating arrangements not as comfortable. Most important is that while all the baked goods I have tried are fresh and soft, they bear no relation to the boulangerie found in its namesake, Paris, France. There, the taste and texture of each of the pastries is unique, while here they are uniform and provide little differentiation. Yes. They are all sweet and tender, but are not anything like a French bakery. Perhaps, I was spoiled living in France and enjoying the pleasure of great croissant and other delights on a daily basis, but as «nice» as these offerings are, they do not approach the amazing flavors and surprises found on every corner in Paris. Paris Baguette? C’est nes pas vrai.
