Carton Paris

Do you believe in awards 🎖️? You know, when you go to a shop or a restaurant and you see a sign that says "The best something in 2024"...? I don't, cause I believe the only shops that can win an award are the ones who... participate in these contests. 😅 Yet, an award usually means quality above average. 😇 One morning in Paris 🇫🇷, we were supposed to go to a specific place to have breakfast before starting our activities but I had to lose 30 minutes (literal) fighting with the ticket machines at the train 🚆 station and we didn't have enough time left to reach that place. I was so pissed. 😡 Fortunately, when we got off the train, I spotted a bakery with lots of awards: best croissant in Paris 🗼 in 2022 and 2024 amongst others. 🥳 So we stopped there and I tried the croissant 🥐 and the pain au chocolat. I don't know if these are the best ones in Paris but they were really good (even though they didn't look so great) and not too expensive for an elite croissant nowadays in Paris (around €1.5). 👏 I had to try the classics, but the shop offers lots of other tempting options. My son did try a cookie croissant (you have to be a kid to order something like this) and that I did not like at all. 🙁 The place offers sitting inside and outside, which is great, but with no AC, which was unfortunate as the weather was so hot! 🥵 The clerks were very nice and attentive. 🙏 A good experience overall. . . . Quality & taste: 9/10 Quantities: 8/10 Atmosphere: 5/10 Originality: 8/10 Ratio price / quality: 9/10 Service: 10/10 How I felt afterwards: 9/10

I went here because it's in the list of the best croissants in Paris. It's a very nice, clean and seems to be newly renovated. The display cases are beautiful with fresh pastries, cookies, cakes and packages gifts. The croissant was very good. I want to go back for the croque monsieur. There is both indoor and outdoor seating. Pay at the counter. No table service.

We liked the pastries and bagette, if you are near by worth stop to have a quick bite. They have tables for dine in, which is good so you can enjoy your coffee and they also have vegetal milk that is a plus for me.

Nice little bakery near Gare du Nord, lots of choice if pastries and sandwiches. Lots tourist stopped over before getting on trains. Service is good and friendly, coffee is pretty good too, but I don't think this shop is any better than other in Paris, somehow it is very popular via social media and maybe due to its location near the train station?

We came here for breakfast every day we were staying in Paris. The service is quick, the pastries are very delicious and fresh. Prices are very reasonable! The smaller tarts were not only nice to look at but very tasty. Only downside: they only use paper cups for the coffee.

Happened to be the best pastries I had on my trip. Had a croissant that did not cost an arm and a leg and it was super flaky. The strawberry tart was one of my favorites from my entire trip, it was very fresh and light. Would come back and try more, also conveniently located close to gard de nord metro.

We went there completely by accident on my visit to Paris back in 2024, and we returned back on every visit ever since. This was my fourth time. The food is very tasty and looks fantastic, the staff are friendly and very helpful. It gets busy and crowded at times but it only means one thing: worth the visit.

The cakes and sandwiches are first class. We had some sandwiches and bought croissants and cakes to take away. Wish we bought more
