Chaumont Bakery & Café

"Chaumont Cafe is where you go if you need dessert either after or as your meal. Not only do they have affordable salads and sandwiches, but they also sell a range of personal-sized pastries and cakes and, more importantly, soft-serve ice cream in a croissant cone. The service here is fast, and the space makes for a good spot to sit and read, or get some work done, or wait for likes on your photo of your croissant ice cream cone." - amy clark

"A prime local favorite, Chaumont Bakery operates from pure French pastry tradition in bright, beautiful spaces in Beverly Hills and Santa Monica. The flaky croissants are always top sellers and for very good reason. Each one has a butteriness that rivals any maker in the city." - Eater Staff

"This stark French bakery/cafe has delicious food, affordable prices, and efficient service that’s perfect for when you’re in a rush. Plenty of people come to Chaumont just to stock up on their fresh daily pastries and we don’t blame them. But we like to sit for a few minutes, scarf down the spicy tuna sandwich, and then pick up some pastries to-go." - brant cox
