• Summary: Best French Bakery Near Me

I get this question a lot: Where to find an authentic French bakery near me?

Being a French chef from Le Cordon Bleu Paris and a macaron expert, I know how frustrating it could be.

That is why I created Pastreez: An authentic French bakery, where you can buy macarons online. It ships fresh to your door in the US.

I thoroughly searched for the best authentic macaron bakery in 16 big cities in the US.

Why macarons? Because it's such a challenge to make those, that if you succeed, you can be considered an experienced baker.

1. Macarons Los Angeles

Los Angeles has plenty of macaron bakeries. Since 2017, macarons has become a trending dessert in town.

• Ladurée Los Angeles

The first macaron shop to mention is Ladurée. It's the most iconic macaron shop that was created in 1862 (yes, a while ago).

Two locations: 311 N Beverly Dr, Beverly Hills, CA 90210 and 889 Americana Way, Glendale, CA 91210.

While Ladurée is definitely the oldest and most experimented in making macarons, one day I asked at the store in Los Angeles few questions. Being from Paris, I was curious if each location of Ladurée made their own macarons locally.

The answer was disappointing: Every macaron is made in Paris and ship to their location frozen. For such an iconic brand, I would expect they make and sell fresh macarons.

Still, Ladurée is the closest to a real Parisian macaron you'll find in LA.

• Bottega Louie

It's an American bakery specialized in macarons. Bottega Louie is located in 700 S Grand Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90017.

I sadly realized that one of their LA location is closed, and the second will close soon. Hurry up if you want to test it out!

• Lette macarons

After COVID, Lette Macarons has closed most of its locations in Los Angeles. It's a pity, because the founder was really passionate about her macarons.

They still take orders on their website for nationwide delivery.

• Le Macaron

Le Macaron is located at 541 S Spring St Suite 127, Los Angeles, CA 90013. One thing you need to know is that this macaron store is a Franchise. I always recommend a real artisan bakery that bakes with passion, rather than a "business" oriented vision.

Of course, making profit is part of the business. But with dozens of locations nationwide, I don't think Le Macaron can keep up with quality, for such a delicate treat.

2. Macarons New York

New York got plenty of choice when it comes to restaurants and bakeries. But what about authentic French bakeries? Let's find out.

• Ladurée New York

Ladurée also has locations in New York. Three actually: One on 864 Madison Ave, another at 398 W Broadway, and the last one at 20 Hudson Yards.

See all their locations.

• Macaron Café

Macaron café is located on 750 3rd Ave, New York, NY 10017. I couldn't find any informations about its founders or process to make the macarons.

From the reviews you can find online (4.5 with 163 reviews on Google), the place seems legit.

• La maison du Macaron

Located at 132 W 23rd St, New York, 10011, La maison du macaron offers local pick up but not Nationwide delivery.

From my research, I didn't find anything about the chefs behind this store. I always recommend to order from a French bakery that has legit bakers.

For example, Yami and I are both French chefs from Le Cordon Bleu Paris (more about Pastreez). Pastreez is located in California and ship fresh nationwide. By the way, redeem today's deal below. We offer 7 macarons Free on every order over $42.

3. Macarons Austin

Austin is a fun city with lots of new opportunities. Let's see if you can find decent French bakery near me there.

• Bakery Lorraine

Bakery Lorraine is located at 11600 Rock Rose Ave #100 Austin, Texas 78758.

While the names and branding might look like it was created by French, none of the founders are actually from France.

But it looks like they are doing an amazing job, not only with their macarons but with their lunch and dinner.

• La Patisserie Austin

La Patisserie has two locations in Austin. The first one at 602 W. Annie St. Austin, Texas 78704; the second one at 7301 Burnet Road Ste 102 Austin, Texas 78757.

This is an artisan bakery specialized with French pastries and macarons. While again none of the founders nor chefs are French, they seem dedicated to provide quality French Pastries in Austin.

• Michelle's Patisserie Austin

Michelle's Patisserie (or Michelle Bakery as some call it) was founded by a dedicated and passionate chef in Austin. Not a French Bakery per se, the chef is local from Texas.

The macaron bakery is located in 12233 RR 620 N. Ste 114, Austin, TX 78750.

4. Macarons Dallas

Dallas is one of the most populated city in Texas and the United States.

• Joy Macarons

Joy Macarons has two locations in Dallas: OAK CLIFF at 839 W. Davis Street
Dallas, TX 75208, and LOWER GREENVILLE 1927 Greenville Avenue
Dallas, TX 75206.

The bakery offers free pick up but no shipping. The reviews I was able to find are 4.7 on 86 reviews, which is a great ratio.

The website has not "about us" page. I couldn't check on who are the chefs and if they are making authentic French macarons. I will give it a try whenever I'm in Dallas.

• Savor Patisserie Dallas

The Savor Patisserie of Dallas was founded by Kelli Watts. I'm happy when the founders and chefs are transparent with its customers.

While she is not a trained French chef, she taught herself the savoir-faire for macarons and built her store in Texas.

Two locations: SNIDER PLAZA 6725 Hillcrest Avenue, Suite D, Dallas TX 75205; and CASA LINDA PLAZA 9440 Garland Road, Suite #142, Dallas, TX 75218.

• We the birds macarons

We the birds is fairly new to the macarons scene. Founded by two American sisters in 2018 in Dallas Texas, their approach is more artistic and fashion. The pictures and the look of their shops seems interesting!

The macaron bakery is located at 4101 Bryan Street #160 *BY APPOINTMENT ONLY*, Dallas, TX 75204

5. Macarons Denver

Denver in Colorado is well known for its winter activities. Let's see if I can find a hidden gem to help you find the best French bakery near me!

• Bella Macarons

Bella macaron is located in 12665 Jasmine St, Thornton, CO 80602. I couldn't find much information on this bakery. In fact, Denver is not the city where you'd find authentic macaron store.

Give Pastreez a try. We ship fresh nationwide from California. Oh and of course, every macaron is 100% handmade by French chefs (either my wife or me).

6. Macarons Seattle

• Lady Yum

Lady Yum seems to be popular in the area. I really liked her "about us" page. The founder tells her story how she grew up baking. And while she is not French, she is really passionate about she does, and that counts.

I'm sure her macarons worth to stop by if you're in Seattle looking for an bakery near me. Lady Yum is located at 2130 6th Ave, Seattle, WA 98121.

• Macadons

Macadons was founded by Donna in Seattle. From the "about us" page I could tell than the main baker gave an Asian twist to the French macarons.

I can't say if these are authentic Parisian macarons, as they do not deliver in my area. The bakery is located at 9828 16th Ave SW, Seattle, WA 98106

• Le Panier

Le Panier French bakery is located at1902 Pike Place Seattle WA 98101. And "Cocorico", I was finally able to find a REAL artisan baker in the name of Hubert Loevenbruck, founder of Le Panier.

Not only they make macarons there, but also pain au chocolat, croissant, and all the classic French patisseries.

I strongly recommend you to try them out if you're in Seattle looking for macarons.

• Dbakers

Dbakers is based in 3501 NE 2nd Ave, Miami, FL 33137. They make macarons in fun flavors, and also do specialty cakes for events.

Maison Valentine has a real French baker by the name of Stéphane Merlat. With his experience and background, I have no doubt that Maison Valentine is one of the best French bakery to find macarons in Miami.

It is located at 1112 15th St, Miami Beach, FL 33139.

8. Macarons Chicago

• Vanille Patisserie

Vanille Patisserie has 4.5 reviews with 398 of reviews on Google. It's safe to say this might be a popular macaron bakery in the Chicago area.

A lot of mention is made about the bakery on its mention: Artisan bakery, French pastries, etc. But I couldn't verify the name of the chef nor the founder to check the authenticity of Vanille Patisserie.

It's located at 2108 N Clark St, Chicago, IL 60614.

This is an authentic French macaron bakery in Chicago. With over 110 years of experience, this is a family owned patisserie. You should give it a try.

Note that they do not ship macarons, nor allow to order macarons online. At Pastreez we ship macarons fresh daily. Your treats are 100% by French chefs in California.

With 4.7 stars on Google and 267 reviews, needless to say Ici Macarons worth the try. I wasn't able to find any information of its founders nor bakers.

• Guilty cravings

The macarons at Guilty Cravings San Diego are interesting. With fun American flavors like Oreo or Fruity Pebbles, I'm not sure we can call it a genuine French bakery.
