From flaky croissants to decadent guava pastelitos, we\u2019ve got it all. And now, one of our very own has been honored with a spot on Tasting Table\u2019s top 14 French bakeries in the U.S. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tastingtable.com\/2160281\/best-french-patisserie-us\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"shortcode-outbound-link\" data-has-ga=\"true\" data-ga-type=\"click\" data-label=\"https:\/\/www.tastingtable.com\/2160281\/best-french-patisserie-us\/\" data-action=\"text_cta_0\" data-category=\"click_non_sales\">list<\/a>: Bachour.<\/p>\n<p>The Coral Gables restaurant is led by renowned pastry chef Antonio Bachour, who was named Best Pastry Chef in the World by the Best Chefs Foundation in both 2018 and 2022. The establishment itself \u2014 with its beautiful outdoor courtyard and glass-enclosed kitchen where you can catch a glimpse of the pastry preparations \u2014 has also earned a Bib Gourmand recognition from the Michelin Guide.<\/p>\n<p>But alongside the star baked goods, Tasting Table notes that Bachour serves savory dishes like mushroom flatbreads, fried calamari and baby back ribs. The guava and cheese pancakes are standouts for living up to their rave reviews, and the croissant bread pudding is described as a favorite:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe croissants get a ton of love from customers, and these are no ordinary croissants. Strawberry and mascarpone, pistachio, dulce de leche, and flan croissants are favorites, along with the croissant bread pudding,\u201d the ranking reads.<\/p>\n<p>As for the only downside, the bakery\u2019s popularity might result in your favorite items selling out by afternoon.<\/p>\n<p>How Bachour made the list<\/p>\n<p>The publication put together the ranking by looking for bakeries that have received mentions or honors from prestigious organizations like the Michelin Guide and the James Beard Foundation. They also sought out establishments helmed by chefs who have trained, studied and worked in France.<\/p>\n<p>A strong commitment to producing traditional French pastries and breads was required, alongside a willingness to put a creative spin on flavors and fillings. Plus, the sourcing of local ingredients was taken into consideration.<\/p>\n<p>The 14 Best French Bakeries in the U.S., according to Tasting Table<\/p>\n<p>Bachour (Coral Gables, Florida)<\/p>\n<p>Almondine Bakery (New York, New York)<\/p>\n<p>Verz\u00eanay Chicago (Chicago, Illinois)<\/p>\n<p>Poulette Bakeshop (Parker, Colorado)<\/p>\n<p>Essence Bakery Cafe (Phoenix, Arizona)<\/p>\n<p>Arsicault Bakery (San Francisco, California)<\/p>\n<p>Balthazar Bakery (New York, New York)<\/p>\n<p>R\u00e9publique (Los Angeles, California)<\/p>\n<p>Dominique Ansel Bakery (New York, New York)<\/p>\n<p>Bakery Nouveau (Seattle, Washington)<\/p>\n<p>Bakery Lorraine (Various locations, Texas)<\/p>\n<p>Twisted Croissant (Portland, Oregon)<\/p>\n<p>Michette (Somerville, Massachusetts)<\/p>\n<p>Bellegarde Bakery (New Orleans, Louisiana)<\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\udccd You can find <a href=\"https:\/\/antoniobachour.com\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"shortcode-outbound-link\" data-has-ga=\"true\" data-ga-type=\"click\" data-label=\"https:\/\/antoniobachour.com\" data-action=\"text_cta_1\" data-category=\"click_non_sales\">Bachour<\/a> at 2020 Salzedo St, Coral Gables, FL 33134.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\u00a0\u2013\u00a0 Staff Writer \u00a0\u00b7\u00a0 May 15, 2026 Let\u2019s be real, Miami is the place to be when it&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":272882,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[123,125,124],"class_list":["post-272881","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-miami","tag-miami","tag-miami-headlines","tag-miami-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/272881","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=272881"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/272881\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/272882"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=272881"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=272881"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=272881"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
