The French Workshop

my family & i love the pastries here !! 💟 it's usually pretty packed here from my experience but so worth it. it's super unique from any other bakery ive been to in queens. they have special pastries for different occasions, which is part of the reason why i love it here. the place is kinda small but have seating inside & some outside. it is pricey but they taste delicious & the craftmanship/presentation of each pastry takes skill/time. i've never seen an ugly pastry from here! 😂🥰

A little taste of Paris in Queens! 🇫🇷☕️ The French Workshop in Bayside is one of the coziest and most elegant bakeries I’ve visited in New York. Everything here feels refined — from the design and atmosphere to the aroma of freshly baked pastries and espresso. The desserts are not only beautiful but truly delicious — you can feel the craftsmanship and quality in every bite. The coffee is excellent too — smooth, rich, and perfectly balanced. It’s a perfect spot to enjoy a quiet morning, meet a friend, or simply take a break from the city rush. Highly recommend for anyone who loves good pastries, great coffee, and a calm, French-inspired vibe.

management was hands on !! music is great & relaxing. desserts are spot on & delicious, staff members were lovely as well as crunchy samples were amazing

My new favorite spot for something sweet and birthday cakes. My cousin took me there. Their cakes are unique in design and tastes so good! I went getting a birthday cake and tasted a dessert 🧁 Fabulous!!!!

If I had only tried the mille feuille, I would easily give this place four stars. Unfortunately, the other items I ordered brought the overall experience down. The mille feuille was genuinely good — crisp layers and well executed, comparable to another well-known pastry shop nearby. However, the Pistachio Cream Croissant had very little filling, to the point where calling it “cream” feels like a stretch. The Matcha Bomboloni and Cold Brew Bomboloni were also disappointing: the dough was a bit firm, and the fillings were so minimal — especially when compared to other bakeries, where filled donuts are often generously packed and actually burst with filling. Coffee was fine. The interior is nicely designed and festive, which adds to the atmosphere, especially on a snowy morning in NYC. Overall, this is a visually appealing bakery, but consistency and value don’t quite match the hype. Three stars feels fair for the full experience.
