The Best Bakeries in Paris, According to a Local | Condé Nast Traveler
"The very first location of Poilâne, this historic shop opened in 1923 with traditional country breads, and those have been the signature ever since. As of 2012, Poilâne was producing about 3 percent of all the bread sold in Paris; the company's miche bread, a wheel of sourdough called pain de campagne, or country bread, is stocked in supermarkets, specialty stores, and restaurants. You'll find it in the shop, as well, along with beautiful croissants and a host of other breakfast pastries and specialty loaves. Punitions, Poilâne's signature shortbread cookies, are legendary." - Lindsey Tramuta
