Elegant French pastries, macarons, and creative desserts.























"With nearly 20 flavors, St. Germain makes some of the city’s best macarons and has one of the largest selections. We like visiting their spacious venue in the Interlock, so we can stare at their colorful assortment of the French sandwich cookies until we fall into a daydream about our last trip to Paris. The beautiful French cafe is also a nice place to work and work your way through the menu. Start with coffee and breakfast quiches then move on to lunch sandwiches. And know you can retreat back to the counter whenever you need a macaron to rinse away the distaste of that all-company email." - nina reeder, juli horsford
"This Atlanta-based French bakery chain is known for their display cases of beautiful pastries, like their peach-shaped one with a velvety custard filling or their lemon cube cake, which looks like one of those bubble cube candles. And if you love macarons, Saint Germain has some of the city’s best, with one of the largest selections (nearly 20 flavors). We prefer their spacious venue in the Interlock because it feels like stepping into a Paris cafe with indoor and outdoor seating and small circular tables just big enough to hold your laptop, a coffee cup, and saucer. There are a few larger tables if you're trying to use the place as an office and work your way from breakfast quiches to afternoon sandwiches." - Nina Reeder

"St. Germain, with locations at Ponce City Market, Buckhead, and the Interlock, is known for its elegant French pastries, but none gets pushed into the over-the-top category like the lemon cube. Though not towering like some of the other desserts on this list, it’s visually stuns as a bulbous cube in a vibrant yellow hue. The cube is actually lemon meringue mousse filled with peach preserves and a basil syrup-soaked sponge cake as its base. St. Germain Bakery isn’t short on other beautiful and dramatic desserts to try, including the Tropicale shaped like an orange, the completely realistic Lemon Drop, and the Mon Cheri resembling a bright red cherry." - Lia Picard
