Boulangerie Christophe French Bakery Serves Tasty Pasteries in Northwest Washington!

With a family friendly vibe, delicous pastries and coffee and options for a solid breakfast or lunch meal as well, check out Boulangerie Christophe French Bakery. This location is the one and only Boulangerie Christophe in the country! In 2019, they won the award for the best baguette in the USA. The menu has a wonderful variety of delicious pastries, crepes, salads, sandwiches, and breakfast options. 

The menu items are in French, so you will have to read for the little ones, but the descriptions are in English. 

Their pastries, tarts, and other desserts are homemade are delectible. Kids will love the Croque Madame, omletes, and yogurt and granola. While the menu looks grown-up, there are tons of options that will please younger palates. The butter croissant and broiche with fresh lavender honey butter is another favorite! 

If your child doesn't have a large appetite, Boulangerie Christophe has a great selection of sides including potato gratin, ratatouille, wild smoked salmon, Mediterranean sausage, and Parisian ham. 

On nice weather days, they have a lovely outdoor back patio. For a sit down meal, the upstairs is beautiful and the food is authentic and delicious. The atmosphere is warm, clean, and very French feeling. 

There is a happy hour from 3pm-6:30pm daily with benefits for adults like $2 off beer, $6 off of house red, white, rose, and sparkling wines. You can also get 30% off a bottle of wine. 

This is a great place to stop after spending time at Dumbarton Oaks or the Georgetown Neighborhood Library
