Pitchoun! in Los Angeles - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

On vacation with the family... it's good to find real bread, the coffee is very good, for the same price it's not worth going to take an overdose of sugar at Starbucks... We will come back

Pitchoun! Is a cool place with good customer service. Their lattes are absolutely amazing and their sandwiches are of European quality! However, the baguettes can be slightly chewy and over buttered sometimes and other times they have too little butter. More consistency would be preferred! I have dined in, done delivery and takeout 😂 so I have tried it all!

Great place for coffee and pastries. Plenty of options and ambiance was nice. We got the almond and jalapeño/cheese croissant

The food is so good and service is fast

Nice place with a good food and friendly staff🫶

Perfect breakfast spot for downtown LA. We were staying at the Biltmore and looking for some coffee and stumbled upon this place. Attention to detail in their decorating, excellent food, phenomenal lattes, (which I NEVER say). We definitely will come back. My husband had the Tomato and Egg Focaccia, I had the Atlantic smoked salmon sandwich, we both had lattes and we took a baguette for the road.

Just okay, my apple turnover seems to be filled with applesauce but the flakiness is nice

Why would you open a coffee shop as late as 8am ?? I love your coffee, but I’m really frustrated that you open at 8 am. Most of us start our day around that time, so we can’t enjoy your coffee before work. A coffee shop should be open early enough for people to grab a coffee before their day starts. Please consider opening earlier, this late opening is really disappointing.

Great breakfast spot in DTLA. Grab one of the hightables right by the window, so nice to people watch. Service is super friendly and helpful, food is delicious and big portions. All pastry looks amazing. I indulged in a pistachio croissant and breakfast sandwich w/o bacon. Yum and will keep me full for the day exploring DTLA. Will definitely return!

I've been here twice, both satisfying. Best chai latte I've had, and killer pastries. I would recommend the chocolate croissants and chocotwist. 10/10!

It's a nice restaurant with a family friendly atmosphere. The food was good and well presented. Some of the pastries are a bit pricey though. The croissant cookie was delicious.

My friends and I went the last 3 days to have breakfast. Wide choice of dishes for breakfasts of all kinds, the pastries and cakes are always soft and the croissants can vary from those with a crunchier crust to a softer one. Obviously it depends on your tastes. Short waiting times and helpful customer service. Clean toilets lv.A Drinks can be had at the restaurant or Take Away to take away.

Pitchoun! is a city bakery with tasty food & a fine vibe for a quick stop. I came for breakfast while traveling for work, and was hoping for a cozy spot to work & read while having breakfast. While there is seating, it wasn’t as cozy as I had hoped - wobbly tables, the kind of spot you bring the kids & family on vacation when you just need to find a spot near your hotel, sometimes a bit loud & kid-packed because of that. Overall, solid spot for a pastry, but I wouldn’t write home about it.

O espaço e a comida sao INCRÍVEIS, ótimo atendimento tb, Excelente opção de café da manhã e lanche. Os croissant são impecáveis

Delicious French style food. Pastries wonderful to boot. Had cream cheese Danish, avocado toast & Chai latte. Husband had the breakfast sandwich and couldn't finish it it was so good!

Atmosphere and service were nice. It was nice that they were open on the weekend. However we had some complaints about the food: 1) my mother's egg Benedict whites were on the more liquid side. They were underdone. 2) my veggie omelette had no cheese in it, even though it said it came with it on the menu. 3) the eggplant sandwich would be much, much better if it was warm. It was very disappointing to receive a few cold eggplant sandwich. If they improved these food complaints it would have been a very nice experience. We were in a rush so unfortunately we couldn't enjoy the environment much and didn't have time to let the staff know about the food issues. People probably come here more for the pastries, and we didn't actually get any of those, so our lower rating will not reflect the quality of their pastry selection.

Toast so hard it was inedible. Rotten lettuce in salad. When I spoke to the manager she was rude and didn’t care. They also run a loud dust vac in the food prep area that is hard to hear over. Too bad because great potential. Oh and they tell you they charge for jam after they bring the rock hard toast.

Excellent breakfast, top-notch service, you saved my life with your food. Thank you.

Just had the WORST breakfast! They can neither make pastry nor coffee properly. They claim that the pastries are freshly made daily, if that's the case, then it is either because they are lying or they really cannot make them properly. Here is some breakdown of the terrible pastries and coffee we had: 1. Raspberry croissant: How dare to even call it a croissant! The puff pastry itself collapsed, there is no layer or texture whatsoever, very DRY and BITTER. The dough tastes raw. The raspberry jam tastes cheap and is not freshly made for sure. 2. Canele: How dare they charge more than $4 for this terrible canele?? A good canele should have a shiny crispy outside and a creamy moisture inside, this canele has a really terrible outside that is soggy, and the taste is too bad. 3. Cappuccino: Italians would be dead if served with this. The waiter said she made this with a proper coffee machine and proper technique, but guess what? What I received is just a cup of coffee with extra large, unrefined bubbles on top. This is NOT A GOOD FOAM! If you cannot make a proper foam then how dare you to open this cafe, just check any YouTube video for tutorial. Final words. If you don't believe me, just go Bottega Louie for croissant to try how different they taste, and BL even costs less!

A place where the service is bad but the sandwich is not good and the Coca comes hot.

the atmosphere is very nice but I can’t same the same thing bout their foods. We tried 3 different pastries and none of them tasted good or fresh. Costco croissants are better, this was not worth it.

The quiche was not as good as expected

It doesn't get more French than that! Pitchoun is so delicious! 💖 Best brunch place ever!

It’s been a while since I’ve been here. I used to come quite often, decided to enjoy brunch this afternoon. I must say everything used to be outstanding, but not today, not only was the food mediocre, but the service horrendous. We ordered two Parisian omelettes, which not only came cold, but with stale bread and in order of French toast, which was actually pretty good however, being so thick it barely absorbs the small ramekin of Maple syrup served with it. Given that there was not quite enough syrup, and it was filled up only 3/4 of the way, I asked for another one and was told that I would need to pay an additional dollar which of course I did. Believe me I can will afford to pay for not only the $70 brunch but the dollar for extra syrup it’s just the point of not going a little extra for a customer. Very disappointed

The mushroom omelet was pretty good. As for Prem Chi Toast, hmm.. not so good. The atmosphere is okay

Superb bakery with great variety of choice bakes

Wanting to check this place out for a bit. I ordered ahead. It’s was pretty quiet. I like The Boulangerie vibe inside. The croissants were a bit small for the price, not the best consistency, and the coffee was okay. The focaccia sandwiches were very heavy, but tasted fine.

I ordered through Uber eats and I am disappointed in what is advertised in Uber eats and what I received. The meal description online shows eggs Benedict with a side salad or potatoes and it’s even required as an option. When I called the store to tell them I was missing my side they mentioned they don’t serve the eggs Benedict with a side. That’s not what is offered online. For the price I paid I feel ripped off!

I was upset! The food was lackluster. My tartine looked like if a blind person threw it together. WAY TOO MUCH arugula. I ordered the North Pole and they brought me the wrong one. I had to get up from my table in which my party was already eating and then had to pay the difference for a mistake they made. I also ordered a soup that was disgusting!!!! It was blended mushrooms water and salt and it was $9! What a waste! New York is far ahead!!!!!!!

I really wanted to like this place because the ambience was very welcoming. I ordered to-go a iced cinnamon latte, iced matcha latte, a beignet vanilla croissant and an almond croissant. Both lattes were watered down, the matcha especially, had no sweetener, and I could feel the matcha powder balled up and break apart into dry powder in my mouth. The cinnamon latte was okay, not much to say. When I tried the beignet at home, i realized it's basically the same dough used in Mexican doughnuts, shaped like a croissant. It's a bit bland and the custard center left a lot to be desired, and tasted artificial. The almost croissant was extremely dry and hard. I understand most of the time day old croissants are used for almond croissants but this was at least 2-3 days old or was left too long in the oven. I spent over $37 dollars to essentially throw away the matcha latte and other bakery items. The only item that saved this review was the turkey and cheese croissant: it was fresh, crispy and the fried Parmesan added the best crunch. I really wish the other items hadn't soured the experience because I don't think I'll ever try this place again.

The worst baguette I have ever ate. I purchased a baguette today at 8Am and I think it was a leftover from yesterday because it doesn't feel fresh. My teeth almost broke.

I love the interior design of the restaurant! You can just simply take out house coffee. I was about to, but i was so attracted by their all different kinds of bread. These days i found crookie is very popular in France, I can’t believe they have one!

We came to have breakfast with the family, the service is very terrible. The girl who accepted our order was very rude. The pleasant breakfast we were waiting for turned into a terrible one. Thank you very much for this mood to the employees

We ordered Almond croissants, crepe, French toast, avocado toast with Scrambled eggs. The almond croissant was decent - I expect it to be the best I've had for the price they charge. If the the price was lower, I wouldn't mind getting the croissants again. But the French toast, avocado toast and crepes were terrible. The serving of Scrambled eggs was too little.

So happy to find a boulangerie as I was just getting to them from ivory coast. Great selection. Delicious, absolutely impeccable croque madame. The takeaway process is a little confusing, it's not clear where your food is coming from and the person I asked was a little salty about it. But food was delicious.

I'm a French expat living closeby, and Pitchoun is the closest I've found to a French bakery so far. The pastries are really good and they have tons of choices. The sandwiches remind me of the different kinds you would find in a traditional French bakery, and the bread is great quality for them! I usually get take-out, but I've eaten there too and it's just a really cozy place overall.

They are sending bakeries plain open bags with delivery orders, even though I have asked them many times for preventive measures against food tampering. Good when you are in-store, do not order delivery.

Have you ever had an XL GIANT croissant?? You can find it at this French bakery in downtown LA. They serve breakfast items and other entrees but we were there for the pastries of course, like the beignet croissant with the vanilla cream inside, and I couldn't resist getting the viral Nutella spiral croissant. They make the cutest latte art on their specialty drinks and you can't NOT peruse their cakes selection, to take home or enjoy in their gorgeous outdoor patio! Thanks for reading! ^-^

A great bakery with fantastic treats

This is perfect for a simple breakfast and a great cup of coffee. It's super chill, with a few French books to flip through while you eat. Plus, it's kid-friendly, with books for the kids. The patio is calm with road view and relaxed. The veggie omelet , and the coffee was delicious, though it could have been more hotter. They've got a nice selection of bread and macarons too. Overall, a casual and enjoyable spot!

The vibes and the food were so delish😚🤌

Delightful assortment of treats! From flaky croissants to rich chocolate eclairs, this bakery knows how to satisfy cravings."

Le service pas mal Mais la nourriture pas top du tout Les crêpes sont immangeables Manque de luminosité dans le cafe Les cafés au lait, et les chocolats étaient pas chaud du tout Je vous conseille plutôt d’aller au sweet Lily baker meilleur, accueil et meilleure nourriture

I love the atmosphere, so I might have expected better food quality too much. Also, they say Japanese green tea, but it’s not. It is Hojicha, which is roasted green tea, and it is way different.

This is a great little place. Central to a lot of trains downtown, next to the Biltmore. If you're anywhere within about 3 or 4 blocks you should definitely make the walk. They brew la colombe coffee. Decent. My girlfriend got a child which is really good, I got the blueberry scone very good not too sweet, cheese danish was also very good.

Best breakfast in Downtown Los Angeles

Beautiful place, cool concept and decent food. I ordered the Bahn Mi and although the bread it came with was fantastic, it wasn't a Bahn Mi. It was a very messy chicken sandwich with some type of creamy sauce with grated carrots and cilantro. It was decent and I was hungry. The coffee eclair was delicious. The service was atrocious. The clerk was in a big hurry to get off her face even though I was only one of two people at the counter. She acted as if she was doing me a favor. Businesses all need to function under the premise that someone will review them and post it online. Seriously. Just get it together.

Lots of options and very delicious! Their almond croissant is unique and actually has a strong flavor of almond!

Beautiful desserts. I need more butter on the croissant pastry, a bit dry. The coffee was strong and delicious.

Been there multiple times. Love their marble cake, though most pastries are too sweet in my opinion. Service needs some adjustment.

Very good place to have breakfast. Variety of breads and pastries. Very rich hot chocolate. It is somewhat expensive, but the quality is good. Recommended.

Their food was delicious. But the crepes were very small size.

I stumbled on Pitchoun serendipitously and loved it. The “French-inspired” breakfast items were a hit with the family.

Kind people and warm atmosphere!

Nice little place with plenty of yummy baked goods!

One of the best bakeries I've been to! Great pastries and excellent lattes, in a bowl.

Worth a visit, especially if you’re staying at the Biltmore bc this is literally right outside their doors essentially. I got a breakfast sandwich and iced latte. Total was about $25 so definitely not a cheap place, but pretty good. I loved the rustic interior. They have a wine bar too so overall it just felt like a good spot to chill. Also, I asked for a straw and was told they don’t have them, so just keep that in mind!

Even if you ask them to make sure that their baked stuff is fresh or not they will Lie to you ! nothing that I bought was fresh ! even the almond croissant was not Fresh at all and the pastries tastes nothing then sugar !

Cute cafe, great service, and great date spot, difficult to get parking unless you are willing to pay for parking lots. But worth a visit.

A bakery great for a leisurely breakfast The coffee is average but the bread is delicious.

Food is amazing here and the pastries are to die for. Came back 2 days in a row and we were only in LA for 2 days!!

Such a delicious breakfast place! I really enjoyed the fresh baked pastries. The apple tart and pistachio croissant were wonderful!

Great spot for breakfast/brunch. They have great pastry. I think the egg benedict is even better although I heard they’re famous for the pastry. The latte art here is very cute. The vibe is nice. Great lighting. Parking is not really practical. I took public transport.

First was the sandwich which came super cold. The staff is rude and literally throwing your food on the table if you ask for something. I came especially for the croissant, but they look and taste like 2/3 days old croissant.

I’m from Europe, so I know what is the perfect croissant, good coffee and calmly staff. This is NOT what you'd expect from a French bakery… Food - 0. Service - 0. Atmosphere - 0. Everything looks good, just to take photo, the taste is absolutely disgusting… It’s my first and last time in Pitchun!👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻

I was in LA for a conference and decided to walk around the block and landed on this coffee shop. The outside cafe vibe and orange tables called me! So, a midday coffee and chocolate croissant were definitely in order. Don't you just love when serendipity ends with such a pleasant find as this one! l

Very good French petit-déjeuner

Great bakery treats and fast service. Expect to get your coffee in a bowl if you order a larger size. Almost everything we ordered here was good so feast up! Price|$$ Recommend|Yes

What an amazing gem located right across Pershing square! This French bakery is super authentic and has a great selection of pastries, baked goods, sandwiches and bowls. I love the latte art and that they had almond and oat milk options. I loved the Atlantic Sandwich and the veggie sandwich. I also tried the tomato egg foccacia and the almond chocolate croissant. Highly recommend!

Average croissant and average latte.

fourth time coming here ❤️ we love pitchoun!

Cute place. Bad service. How they take orders is a mess. People just stand by the front door waiting to get attended and staff can’t even keep track of who to tend to. No self serve for milk and sugar so you gotta hope they get it right. Bread was chewy like pizza reheated in a microwave.

Baguette wasn't fresh, it was previously frozen. Not what you'd expect from a French bakery

I asked the handsome French staff for an unsliced boule and was met with language referral to an assistant who presented mildly “you people” disdain. Further inquiry as to their future, whole loaf replenishment (as pictured on their Yelp and native website) lead to tempered resentment of my intrusive line of questioning. Perhaps the cashier missed their Sephora/Ulta Beauty calling. One cannot slip merely any toasty crunchy bread under their homemade vegan tofu scramble.

The bakery items were good. We got the Nutella croissant, the egg and bacon focaccia, and the Chouquettes. The croissant was delicious and was devoured without much thought. The focaccia was tasty and actually pretty filling, it lacked any flavor to make it stand out. The Chouquettes were simple and light and a small twist on doughnut holes.

Great food! The salmon bowl, the carrot cake…so many good things!

Lovely place!! Good food!! Excelent service! A place that I would tell all my friends to visit! Go there!!

The French toast was delicious and I’m grateful they still serve it for lunch. I’m a breakfast food lover. I paired it with the smooth matcha latte and they went well together. Extra points for the cute design. Also got a couple macarons for an extra treat

Uffff el pan es excelente! Merci

So nice. Great tasty breakfast and baked goods. Yummy. Plus our pup was with us.

What happened with Pitchoun? Used to be one the best French bakeries around LA. Now it's only location in the city. $46 for tiny skinny pecan pie? $4.20 for smallest chewy Cannele de Bordeaux? 😵‍💫 And at least wanted the taste of pastries to closely match the prices, but no - quality is a thing of the past along with reasonable prices. Let's see how long you can stay in business

The best Spot for Breakfast, cakes and many other delicacies. 🙏🇺🇲❤️

Loved the food and atmosphere of this cafe. We had the breakfast sandwich, and several sweets. There is a corner with bools in case you want to come and read.

Pitchoun is my go-to French bakery/cafe. Food is authentic and delicious. Coffee is a little strong for my taste, but if you love strong coffee, you will love it! Warning: You may gain 10 lbs just drooling over the pastries!

Raspberry croissant was way too goopy. And the loaf of bread we picked up was extremely stale. Very disappointing.

Very cute eatery. Comfortable. Sandwiches and pastries are good!

Food, coffee and service is 10/10. Highly recommend pan con tomato if you like prosciutto and cheese. Will be coming back

Very cute spot! The food we ordered was decent. Staff were friendly. Would definitely like to try more different things on their menu! When youre sitting next to the fireplace outside, it does not feel like you're in the downtown!

The food is really good. Really nice vibe at this place. I definitely recommend the chocolate almond croissant 🥐 Really tasty latte. The eggs Benedict are not the traditional one, they use baguette instead and it's a really nice twist.

We enjoyed breakfast, bacon sandwich, and a two egg breakfast. Service was good girl who helped friendly.

Пришел сюда завтракать, взял бенедикт с лососем - вкусно. Но причина по которой больше не приду, официант сказала, что у них нету капучино, а только обычный кофе. Жаль.

Good service good lunch duo price by 2pm

Excellent service and the food is A plus! Authentic French cuisine in the heart of downtown Los Angeles and next to Biltmore Hotel

Ottima colazione in Downtown LA. Prezzi un po’ alti ma in linea con la qualità del cibo. Da provare assolutamente il croissant alle mandorle. Consigliato

Delicious! Beautiful! Excellent! We ate breakfast here three days in a row because it is so good we didn't want to go anywhere else. Huge variety of pastries and savory options. Delicious coffee. Lovely atmosphere. A gem all around. Don't miss this place.

Went on a recommendation that their croissants were amazing and to try their Tropezienne but found the croissants to be just okay and no Tropezienne (seasonal). Their Nutella croissant had a lot of Nutella in it and a nice change from pain as chocolat. Baguette was also just okay. But I think it’s a good lunch spot w sandwiches etc in DTLA.

Overall: 3.3/5 (dine in) They have a huge selection of pastries and serve breakfast/brunch items like egg benedicts. They also have monthly specials as well. After you order, they give you the pastry and a table number. The table number is for the drinks which was interesting to me. However, service could have been better. Pistachio Croissant ($5.95): The croissant was pretty big and full of pistachio. The lady didn't heat up the croissant and just put it on the plate. It didn't have much flavor but I felt it could have tasted better if it was warm. Iced Vanilla Latte ($6.60): The last recommended the vanilla latte as the best iced ones they had. Unfortunately, it was very milky so you only get hints of coffee here and there. It got worse as the ice melted so I would recommend you go somewhere else for coffee. Iced Matcha Latte ($6.15): Let's just say matcha is not their specialty. It tasted kinda bitter + milky so after my husband and I each took a sip, we added 1.5 packets of honey to make it taste better. It helped but obviously we would not be ordering drinks from here again. Our experience wasn't good but our friends who were with us enjoyed their chai latte, Americano, baguette, and croissant.

Very disappointed with our visit today. My wife ordered a vegetable omelet, and I ordered the breakfast sandwich. She got a cappuccino, and I got an Americano as well. The food came out and my sandwich was on a croissant. I wanted it on ciabatta, and I forgot to mention that when I ordered. To be clear the young lady taking our order didn't ask either. When I asked to get it changed, the person that came over thought I was asking her to debate what the menu said rather than just correct my order. She said it comes on croissant. I reminded her the menu offers either croissant or ciabatta. We had to get insistent to get her to change the bread. Mistake. The ciabatta was at least 2 to 3 days old. It was dry, stale, and stiff. The scrambled eggs were cooked hard and brown. Very unappetizing sandwich. I didn't eat the bread. My wife's omelet was over-cooked as well. Fried hard and brown. The coffees were OK. This visit was really disappointing since we like to have breakfast here when we're in town. We may have to rethink a return visit.

I have never been disappointed with the food here. Amazing bakery, great matcha latte, and breakfast sandwich... amazing. So glad I came in during my visit to LA!
