Michelina - Los Angeles

Best baguette in town! This is the only place I will ever buy my baguettes from now on. Michelina has become the excuse for me to visit the farmers market more often. Now, when it comes to service, I have ready many complaints. When I got there, there was this old lady who spends at least 5 minutes changing her mind about the bread she wanted to purchase. There were 4 loaves of the same kind of bread and she had the girl who worked there, a tall brunette, pick up each of them and put them back one after the other because she couldn't decide. Any person would have lost their cool but the sales girl remained calm and was very professional about the whole thing.

Coming here for years but sadly I never did write a review. Not only is this one of the best bakeries in LA but one of the best bakeries anywhere. I’m writing a review tonight because just saw the tail end of an exchange with an incredibly unpleasable customer. The staff or owner – were speaking to her and being incredibly accommodating. But she wouldn’t have it and left off in a huff, nasty as could be. I’m just impressed the way they handled her and it’s a great business with excellent, excellent products! We just spent the last year in London, Paris and Europe, and we’re not missing the bakeries there, because happily, there is Michelina!

Excellent spot at the original LA Farmers market!! The coffee here is fantastic, the staff are so friendly, and there are some great food options on the menu!! You have to check out Michelina!!

Had the chocolate croissant here and it was the best I’ve ever had

Swing by for a pastry or stay for an excellent breakfast. The quiche lorraine is one of the best around and any of the egg dishes are perfectly prepared. Their pastry design is incredible art and each perfectly flaky and delicate. Also love lox with the onion bagel. Always a top stop in the Original Farmer’s Market.
