Patisserie Poupon

This little bakery sits incognito in the center of Baltimore City. They have all the beautiful pastries, breads, quiches, cookies, cakes, and Illy coffee you need to feel like you're in a boulangerie, but it's a franchise chain. No complaints here. In fact all compliments. The prices are fair to moderate, but worth every cent. Let the pictures speak for themselves.

Love this place. Unique flavors. Love how they use Almond flavor. Chocolate croissants, macaroons, Frasier cake, and ham n cheese croissants are my favorite. Always go for my birthday week.

We ordered a croquembouche for our wedding and loved it! We live out of state so we worked with them entirely over the phone and without a taste test, and it went better than we could have expected. We've never ordered a croquembouche before so we trusted their guidance on the servings and decoration. They added on white fondant flowers and a border at the bottom that made it so beautiful. And of course everything about it was delicious! Our guests were blown away at how great it looked at tasted.

Love their delicious if a little overpriced baked goods. I was upset because I ordered a birthday cake from here and they misspelled the name, but they fixed the situation. I love their little cakes, especially the Frasier strawberry cream and Napoleon, raspberry tart, and chocolate eclairs.

The BEST bakery in Maryland. Forget Baltimore. The entire state!

I was so excited to see a bakery with great French bakery when on vacation in Baltimore in late September. Thr croissants were good, but the other items tasted like they had been in the freezer and then thawed. There were also several flies in the bakery landing on multiple products. That weren't covered. I will not be returning on my next trip there.

While the pastries are always the delicious, the service was another story. Things were moving at a painstakingly slow pace. The lone server was unfocused and unfriendly and took my order incorrectly despite the slow pace. Other people I talked to have also experienced this. Would go back simply because the food is good, but this place could use a different approach to their service.

I seldomly write reviews but I have to write one about this place. My children and I drove close to 30 minutes to the place on E. Baltimore St. because of the good reviews. As we enter the store, a man who was dressed as a baker came from the back area, looked at us very inquisively and returned to the back. After 1 minutes, a lady came from the back as well, she greeted us and asked us what we wanted. However, she did not seem to be comfortable with us. There was not the anticipative business welcome of a store attendant, she was dry. I am really weighing my words here. I proceed to place my order. I asked for 4 madeleines, 1 pain au chocolat, and 1 croissant The pastries were written French. She had to ask me to repeat my order couple of times. I was reading each pastry in perfect French, but she was repeating them in English, and still missed it. As she already started to put the pastries in a box, she was very dry in telling me that since I was having less than what she thought I had said, she was no longer going to put the pastries in the box, and moved them in a paper bag ...It felt almost like she didn't want us in the store. The children did not make any noise, talked or touched anything. When we walked out, my eldest said: "The lady was kind of rude". When we got in the car, we decided to try the pastries right away. The madeleines were delicious, the pain au chocolat was good too, but the croissant was heavy butter and not so tasty. We decided to give the lady a second chance - my eldest went back to get 4 more madeleines and 2 pain au chocolat. As she placed the order, the lady mumbled something that she did not hear than had a fake smile on her face. Conclusion: Pastries are good, but I will not go back to the place. I do not recall the last time I was in store and the attendant was so rude and dismissive...very sad. Oh I almost forgot, there was a very little fly dancing around.

Amazing wedding cake! I got my wedding cake from Patisserie Poupon and the cake is extremely beautiful and delicious! Simply the best cake I ever had. I chose the Fraisier cake, it is filled with fresh strawberries, mousseline cream, raspberry syrup, and is topped with marzipan almond paste

Yummy pastries! Everything was great. It was so hard to choose. Staffs were friendly. I saw many people stopped by to get their pastries and coffee. The shop has a small seating area. Street parking only.
