MERCI French Cafe and Patisserie

Cute and chic. The food was good, mine took a while to come out (the rest of my party was finishing), the mocha was RICH. They do have a dog-friendly patio and run out of croissants.

A great place for brunch, but is often very, very crowded. Be prepared to sit elbow to elbow with complete strangers, as depicted in their photos. Located right in the heart of a residential and commercial area.

Absolutely love this little cafe/restaurant and the menu. They've updated the decor to be a little more modern French and a tiny bit more polished with a variety of 2-6 person tables and a bit of seating outside. It feels very informal and cosy, the menu is posh but the workers could be from any coffee cafe. The French chef however is a delight, a very gracious man.
Salads and open faced sandwiches are must have. Seriously! They've got a small selection of croissants, macarons and fancy desserts, and a full dinner menu for certain days of the week. Make sure to check the hours it closes early most days.

The best French food in Arizona. We frequented this location while we lived nearby and will make whatever drive necessary to eat here again. The chef, who I still haven't had the pleasure to learn his name, comes to your table during your meal to talk to you and really listen and just generally be amazingly polite.

My husband and I love going to this place for their amazing desserts. The team there is always friendly. Even the owner goes out of his way to make sure you are happy. We live fairly far away, but we love making the trip. You will not regret trying this place out.
