La Gambette à Pain

Not my favorite bakery but there is always a line for lunchtime because they have some great sandwiches. Also their little bread rolls that they heat up for you with lardons or cheese inside. They don't have baguettes it's called a gambette. And unless you get it hot and fresh out of the oven I don't think it compares with a baguette. Their sweets are good especially their chouquettes. The have lots of different escargots too that are good for breakfast.

Living in the area since 2009 I can testify this bakery really went bad with time. The bread was good but now the "gambette" is just ordinary baguette but 30 % more expensive than anywhere else. They don't care about their clients. Closing at Christmas time, during all bank holidays and really not caring about anyone but themselves. But when January comes, they would open all the week-ends to sell their awful greasy overly expensive "galette des rois". I bet they earn much more money with this dietetic bombs than with bread. Money, money, money... Service is just so slow and awfully antipathic. Well you can do much better guys.

Good sandwiches and amazing quiche!

Best Bakery in the neighbourhood and one of the best in Paris in my opinion. Try out the escargot à la praline de Lyon. They are perfect.
