Customer Reviews:
“Cute cafe serving tasty breakfast and pastries. We ordered the lobster omelet which had the most lobster meat I’ve ever seen in an omelet. Also got the French toast and delicious and very light. Would def recommend if you’re downtown area for breakfast and/or coffee.” – Sandy Tseng
“Wholesome food and generous portions. Everything was freshly made and nicely plated. The owner is also the Chef and we saw her in action the whole time. She also took the time to check on us to make sure everything was fine. Our server was kind and attentive. Great place and great atmosphere!” – Isabella Santana
“Went to a cute little restaurant for breakfast the other day and let me tell you, the food was PHENOMENAL 🤩 I had the smoked salmon cream cheese bagel, and my fiancé had the French toast. They were both super delicious. I highly highly recommend this restaurant. It felt like we were in a different state. The atmosphere is really cozy.” – Patricia Dunn
“Beautiful gem of a restaurant! Enjoyed a lovely lunch here today. Walked in and grabbed a table just in time, as it quickly filled up. After our food arrived, I understood why. Delicious! Our table enjoyed two orders of the Oeuf Cocotte with perfectly poached eggs and delicious creme fraiche, the Croque Monsieur and I couldn’t resist the breakfast sandwich on a fresh everything bagel with the homemade pork sausage. The frittes & breakfast potatoes that came with our orders were perfectly crisp, too! Of course we couldn’t leave without treats. Too many to choose from, so took home two muffins and two cookies and will go back for more soon. Since most of us can’t jet set to Paris on a whim, I’m glad I’ve found Blvd Cafe! C’est très magnifique! Merci!” – Amy Doran
