Lafayette Grand Café & Bakery

Chef Andrew Carmellini’s corner spot serves structured French plates, from tartare to beautifully presented breakfasts. For those bypassing the sit-down tables, the bakery counter offers pastries designed for eating on the move. The signature pastry features a rippable, peel-and-eat format that unravels to reveal a generous custardy filling in flavors like pistachio. The setup transitions between a formal dining room with attentive service and a bakery section with lots of standing.
