Le Petit

"Lovely patisserie! I had a breakfast sandwich and a croissant with sweet tea on one visit and a fruit tart on another visit. The meal was delicious and the pastry items are amazing! Best croissants ever!!"

"My husband and I stopped in hoping to find a quaint French bakery atmosphere and pastries. The pastries all looked wonderful and the two that we chose were very nice. We didn’t stay and there was only one person seated. The staff was pleasant with us, but not engaging - which would have warmed the experience a bit more. The reason we didn’t stay and have a coffee with our pastries is that it was cold, not only in temperature, but in the atmosphere. It echoes, the seats are not cushioned. They could use a flower vase here and there and some casual cafe music ( or French) playing. Maybe some books lining the walls or something to give it character. I want to see this little bakery succeed, but it needs to become an enticing destination as well as offering beautiful, delicious food. Some lunch sandwiches and salads would be a nice addition as well."

"I’ve been here on two occasions. The first was in the morning for coffee and pastries. Let’s be clear, the pastries rock! The lemon tart and chocolate croissant were fantastic! I was also a fan of the pour-over coffee. It was smooth and delicious. The second time was for lunch. It was a cooler day so I ordered the PB&J and a cup of the French onion soup. The sandwich hit the spot. The soup, however, was disappointing. The broth was clear, lacked that rich flavor, and left a stale aftertaste. I wasn’t able to eat it. It was unlike any French onion soup I’d ever eaten and I wouldn’t recommend it. My friend quite enjoyed the creamed spinach and curds. I felt like the staff was much friendlier on the first visit than the second. We didn’t even get a smile when we walked to the counter on the second visit. If you’re in downtown Cedar Falls, I highly recommend dropping in for a pastry."

"Great addition to Main Street Cedar Falls. Almond Croissant was very good! The toaster pastry was very good! The breakfast burger was good. It has a lot of different flavors going on so it was a little much for our kids but really well thought out combination."
