Fresh Baguette

Lovely bakery 🥯 🥐 🥧!!! I had the mini eclair-trio and an a cup of organic earl gray tea – delightful! The ambiance was nice, the staff friendly, the seats comfi, and the restroom clean as well as fully-stocked with basic necessities. Can’t beat the location with relatively easy street parking either. It’s definitely a welcome development in the neighborhood, particularly after Firehook across the street went out of business during the pandemic.

I stopped in for a cappuccino and little sweet bite. Did not disappoint. Cappuccino was on point and yummy delight. Lovely space and nice to listen to french music in background. Only thing is it wasn't busy, but table tops had not been wiped down. I found the staff very kind and attentive.

I had never heard of this place until this week, when I happened to walk by and decided to give it a try. Wow, was I impressed! The place was very clean, and the customer service from the cashier (Jay) was excellent. I tried the Sunnyside Bagel, which was delicious, and the iced latte was also really good!

This is what $15+ got me…an overcooked egg with one lousy strip of half cooked bacon and ALOT of tomatoes. And even though I did not want the avocado, because this particular sandwich is the only one on the menu that has the others things I wanted on it, I asked for no avocado but was still made to pay for it. Because it’s on the sandwich. Would be better if they made the avocado add on but that’s how places like this get you. My fault. Still this is sad for what I paid for it. The staff were lovely and the place was clean at least.

There’s a reason I love going to Paris – the amazing bakeries are everywhere. Fresh Baguette brings that Parisian bakery experience right here, with an incredible selection of both sweet and savory treats. Whether it’s a buttery croissant, a delicious éclair, a fresh baguette, or any other type of bread, they have it all. They are just one block away from the Cleveland Park Metro off Connecticut Ave NW. The bakery is open every day from 7 AM to 6 PM, making it easy to stop by for a treat. The store is always clean and tidy, and the staff is incredibly helpful and friendly. This place is a must-visit for anyone who loves authentic French bakery goods!

Delicious pastries, good coffee and nice atmosphere. Perfect for our first morning at DC

I love this place! The staff are always super friendly and attentive. The bread and croissants are so good (get the rustic boule, it's the best loaf they have). A word of advice though, if you are hoping to get any of the following items, you are gonna want to get there early, they frequently run out. Kouign Amann Cinnamon roll Apple turnover Also, if you are going to get a chocolate chip cookie, ask for it to be warmed up, it is WAY better that way.

Stopped by on a rainy day because my usual place was closed for the holidays, and I was not disappointed!! It was so hard to pick from all of the different pastries and food they have to offer. Everything in their display looks absolutely beautiful! You can truly tell all of the care and effort that went into it. I ordered their iced latte (no add-ons), pastrami and egg sandwich, and their coffee eclair which comes in mini and full sizes. Everything tastes just as good as it looked. I’ll be frequenting this place a lot more now. They also have subscriptions for discounts on their food and coffee too. Normally, I’m not a huge fan of plain coffee and tend to opt for more sweet coffees, but this coffee was divine too. As a Starbucks addict, their coffee was far better than a Starbucks by a long shot! Absolutely fresh and tasty. There are not enough great things to say about this place.

This place was lively for a Sunday afternoon! My husband and I came here for a quick bite before grocery shopping for Thanksgiving. The staff was lovely and quick and we were able to order and sit in the window while we ate. We split the Parisian and a ham/cheese croissant. The food was next level - really enjoyed both of them, fresh and delicious. The coffee was fine, nothing to write home about, but that's to be expected when going to a place called Fresh Baguette- the food should be better than the coffee!

I'm so excited that Fresh Baguette has made CP its new home! (I've been to the Glover Park location, but happy to have one closer!) We really needed a good place to grab great delicious pastries and fresh baguettes in the neighborhood. Even though you may encounter a line, it moves quickly-- and is worth the wait! My almond croissant was light and fluffy and generous in size! You can take your items to go, or sit down at various tables. I'll be back to try out more of their items! I've got my eye on you, sandwiches!

The bakery was crowded and there wasn't a whole lot of sitting room available as it was a smaller place but the line moved very fast and efficiently and we managed to snag a spot at the windows and enjoyed the croissant with views of the street. The plain croissant from Fresh Baguette was so light, airy, and most importantly.. fresh! Definitely enjoyed this place for a weekend treat!

Excellent place to have a light sandwich packed with flavor. I ordered the Californian crogel and it was flakes and had great texture. The chicken was moist and flavorful especially with the bomb oregano spread... I subbed lettuce for the tomatoes since I don't prefer them on a sando unless I am in a mood. Haven't tried the pistachio dessert since I was full from the crogel and pineapple juice. Great spot for brunch... oh and my friends also loved their sandwiches. We ate the entire things lol

New bakery in Cleveland Park. Good selection of breads and pastries but no cakes to my disappointment. Limited seating but tables by the front windows are quite nice.

I had the privilege to attend the Mock Service for this amazing new Fresh Baguette location before next week's grand opening. As soon as I entered, I was struck by the bright, modern, yet cozy space and received a warm welcome from the manager. The baguettes and loafs looked almost too perfect to eat, the pastries perfectly crafted, and the sandwiches scrumptious. They also offered a wide variety of espresso drinks which is, unfortunately, rare for the area. The prices are also reasonable at $5 - $12 dollars on average per item. I enjoyed a Norwegian Cro'gel (a smoked salmon sandwich with a bagel shaped croissant bread) and a caramel latte, and took home a sourdough loaf. So excited to see them opening next week! I'm sure I'll become a regular.

I really wanted to love this place because it's in my neighborhood, but the bread and croissants are completely tasteless. There are no baking aromas like in Bread Furst, and the products feel very mass produced. I looked at their pies for Thanksgiving, and the Dutch Apple, which looked pretty skimpy, was on sale for $50! I did have a sandwich there a couple of months ago, and it was good. The place is clean and the people who work there are friendly, but the bread is a huge disappointment. They're not in the same league as Sako Sako, across the street and Bread Furst in Van Ness.

Delicious French bakery with yummy bread, sandwiches and desserts. Service was really great. Can't wait to go back!!

I've been coming since opening day to this location and it's never disappointed me. Foods always delicious. Service is wonderful. Location is perfect. So glad they came to Cleveland Park.

Excellent edition to Cleveland Park. Delicious breads, pastries and coffees. Looking forward to them sticking around.

Good sandwiches but the black gentleman running the a.m. shifts gives the same pretentious energy you get from a college student who did one semester in Paris and makes it his mission to correct every English pronunciation in French words. Put the sandwich in my bag and let me move along with my day, sir. I do not care how it is pronounced.

THE BEST! I've spent some time in Paris and didn't think to find an authentic French spot near me. I've always ordered on DoorDash and the food/drinks are delivered perfectly. I love that some of the pastries are mini as well, just as you'd find in a boulangerie. My one caveat is that the bread on the Parisian sandwich is very hard, or maybe I just received a bit of stale bread. Other than that 10/10

Bread was delicious and fresh. Service was friendly. A great addition to the neighborhood

Went for their early opening event. Beautiful space. Delicious pastries at reasonable price. All employees were kind and helpful. Nice addition to Cleveland Park.

Food was quick and good and I was surprised the sandwich was served warm. Hopefully they get some outside seating soon. A/C was nice on a hot day, but.... -didn't see any menus or QR codes (which I'm not a fan of anyway) so had to look up the sandwich options on my phone -There were 3 open tables and all needed cleaning. Someone was sweeping, even asked me to lift my feet so she could get under my table, but never came around to address the tables. I ended up finding a napkin and wiping down my own table. -Sandwich was served on a thin paper plate, and you need two hands to pick it up and keep plate from buckling. Would be nice if they either got sturdier plates or stacked a couple to be more supportive. -And lastly, I know this is standard in America now, but I resent the credit card machine suggesting 18+% tip amounts and being asked to tip before any services are rendered. Especially in a place where you order and pick up at a counter and clear your own table after eating. But I tipped anyway because I'm always concerned someone may take out their displeasure on my food.

I tried the bakery for the first time yesterday and asked for something vegan. They have a vegan muffin, Morning Glory, which I took out and had for breakfast today. It's fabulous and although I'd like more vegan options I know that's hard for a bakery. Also got a baguette and loaf of bread - both great. Bravo! Ginny
