Patis Bakery

“Food is pretty incredible and the pastries (almond and chocolate croissants) are as close to a Parisienne cafe as you're gonna get in Queens/Nassau counties. Owner is very nice. Staff friendliness is a hit or miss and locals dining in are not overly welcoming that's why I do take out early in the morning on Sundays. My family is always excited when they see the clear Patis bag holding their favorite croissants.”

“I'm almost hesitant to give a positive review only because one of the things I love about it is that it's still a nice place to eat where it's not overcrowded. The food is always fresh and delicious. They're baked goods are their specialty and they do it quite well. If you're lucky you'll be there while they're giving out free samples. It's such a nice salad, sandwich, soup type of place. Although there is not officially waiter service, once you've placed your order, the staff will often bring your food to the table. It's just a friendly vibe. Also, their prices are very good and on the low end for comparable food in the area. There is free parking on site.”

“Patis Bakery in Lawrence, NY is a cozy hole-in-the-wall gourmet bakery/restaurant that's expensive, yet worth every penny. All food (including fresh oversized croissants with house made jam) and beverages (including Fireplace Hot Chocolate with in-house torched marshmallow) are presently beautifully, packaged securely and elegantly (when purchased as take-out), and are delicious. The number of options to customize many menu items is almost beyond belief (i. e. a build-your-own salad can have up to 99 (!) add-ons - including a fried egg, multiple cheeses, tuna salad, sweet potatoes, roasted green and/or black olives, balsamic reduction, chipotle aioli, etc., with all but a very few options being included at no additional charge.”
