PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) – Tasting Table released a list of the 14 best French bakeries in the United States, naming one Portland bakery whose croissants are “the best around.”
“If there’s anything out there that’s more satisfying than walking into a top-tier bakery, we haven’t found it. There’s something magical about those piles of freshly baked breads, the colorful pastries, the beautifully finished cakes and cookies. And the smell? Don’t even get us started about the smells. Any and all bakeries are wonderful, but French bakeries are above and beyond,” Tasting Table wrote.
The outlet said it created the list of the best French bakeries in the U.S. based on places serving traditional goods found in France, along with those receiving accolades from the Michelin Guide or the James Beard Foundation and bakeries run by those who have a background living or training in France.
