Vincent's Bistro French Bakery

"I've been wanting to try this place for ages and I'm glad I finally did. My wife and I both loved it. The food was amazing!! The pastries were phenomenal. I wish we could have gone earlier, as I'm sure there would have been more choices. With a place this good, people come to buy and eat!! The staff was friendly and very helpful. Can't wait to go back!!"

"An amazing selection of authentic and delicious French foods and treats with a lovely patio! The best, most tasty coffee in Palm Beach. Definitely a “must go to” spot to visit! Some gluten free and dairy free options!"

"We were a party of four and everyone was thrilled with their food. We all bought extra to go, so many wonderful choices. I'd say the only negative is the owner's son. He is EXTREMELY rude, arrogant, and has zero customer service skills. Along with my own order, I purchased $18 worth of pastries as a gift, he just threw them into a bag, when I asked if they could please go into a small bakery box, as it was a gift, his mother said, "absolutely" and happily began to transfer the treats as he looked at me with disgust and grumbled, "now you just cost US money!" Since I first wrote this review I have gone back several times, the food remains good, unfortunately, the owner's son remains miserable. My last time there has become exactly that; my last time. Going out to eat or bakery shopping should by its very nature be enjoyable. I'm not going to "pay for abuse." Au revoir!"

"I read the 3-star review from Lucas and couldn’t disagree more! How he can compare Vincents to Aioli’s is beyond me. There is no comparison. Aioli’s is more of a grab and go, rushed situation, staff is 50/50 on friendliness, atmosphere is bland, and their baked goods are not made of the fine ingredients as Vincents. Further, the quiche at Aioli’s is half the size and thickness of the servings here. Yes, you can find less expensive places, and “cheap” places. However, you get what you pay for. If you are going to gawk at $9 then you shouldn’t be out having a croissant anywhere. It takes time and money-a buildings rent and insurance in one area is higher/less over other areas-same with staff-to hire the right people one has to offer more-etc. You are not just paying for the baked good or the lunch, you are paying for everything-supporting their local store-their bills need to be covered, and you are paying fro the atmosphere and location. Everytime I am back in the area (winter months), I always have several breakfast and brunches here. The staff and owners are very pleasurable, the atmosphere is spot on, they are very dog friendly, the food is authentic and delicious and made with the finest ingredients."

"This might be the most authentic Parisienne experience in Florida, for better and for worse. The pastries are exceptional, and the plain butter croissant – the barometer for every bakery – is not only on par with the best I have had in this state (the other goes to Croissant Gourmet on Winter Park, concocted by an ancient Parisian chef refusing to retire); but is a bite of hiraeth to the best croissants in Zurich or Bern or Lyon. Not everything is a hit: the lemon tart, for one, at an eye-rolling $8, is dominated by overpowering meringue with enough sugar to kill the dead; but in a community dominated by the elderly, it is sure to compensate for tastebuds long resting in peace. The prices and atmosphere Parisian, too. While a butter croissant will hardly be felt at some $3.50, the 'Supreme' – effectively a basic croissant wheel but a novelty for those living in this pocket unaware of the outside world – will send you back an absurd $9. This when the likes of Aioli's finest pastries won't really top $5 – much like Bachour, True Loaf, Zak The Baker, My French Café, Buttermilk, OfKors, and the list goes on; roughly the standard throughout the state. You are talking about nearly doubled prices from those of Dominique Ansel, and touching Brenda Villacorta territory. But the French will oft be the French. Reminiscent of Cote France in Boca or Tony's Off Third in Naples, with unjustifiable, lavish prices sensible only for the lazy or unedified. As you order your whiff of the Alps or the Champs-Élysées in this dimmer setting, you are treated to understatedly pushy snooty snobism. As hungry as you are for their top-tier goods, they are hungry for yours. This is not the place to be coddled and showered with love. This is the place to be transported to holistic Paris, in all its glories and temperaments."
