Tasty pastries! - Edit
They were so sweet and tasty! It might be a bit hard to notice at first but vegan ones were marked

3,5/5☆ - Edit
The staff wasn’t really friendly and vegan patisserie options weren’t clearly marked. However, it was still mostly worth it since it turned out to be really hard to find a vegan croissant in Paris.
Read morePros: Cozy and spacious , Delicious vegan croissant
Cons: Pricey, Unclear marking

Mixed feelings - Edit
Ordered the brunch with full vegan options. The granola (pictured with the berries on top), they said they could do with oat milk instead of yoghurt... it came with yoghurt. I didn't realise till I'd had some. 😔 the trusted bread in the basket tasted like it had a honey glaze. I checked with staff, they assured me it was vegan. A sachet of butter with the bread also didn't instil confidence.
Read moreOtherwise, it was fine, nice venue, prompt service. Was swithering on awarding 2 or 3 stars.
Pros: Lovely venue, comfortable seats, nice atmosphere , Prompt service
Cons: Given yoghurt instead of oatmilk , Honey glaze on one of the breads

The standard Le Pain Quotidien experience - Edit
In the last couple of years, Le Pain Quotidien has become a bit more vegan friendly, as they now offer vegan pastries in addition to food (and a couple of cakes).
Read moreBut the overall experience hasn't changed much: slow service, and not the friendliest you will find in Paris.
In any case, it's always a good stop for a coffee break, or a safe choice for vegan food if for some reason you cannot make it to the dozens of fully vegan places in Paris.
Pros: location, opening hours, good value
Cons: not all vegan, service just ok

Limited vegan choices - Edit
Nice place but only two vegan choices on the menu. Had the avocado sandwich which was nice but not really worth EUR 12.

Great as always - Edit
Love to visit Le Pain in the states and this was just as great. Had an English menu and very accommodating staff. Had the soup of the day (butternut squash), mixed greens salad, and the torsade, all delicious. Also note (since I was confused) this is part of but technically not inside the mall, it faces out onto a street.

Good lunch spot before catching at train at les Halles - Edit
I was anxiously scanning the lunch boards for vegan options around les Halles with no luck. Luckily my boyfriend spotted Le Pain Quotidien! I had a really tasty avocado on sourdough bread, and a cappuccino with oat milk. It was really helpful that all vegan options were clearly marked on the menu, also my non-vegan boyfriend and dad were both able to eat happily. The staff were really lovely but very busy, unfortunately my dad had to ask 3 times for some tomato ketchup and had almost finished by the time it arrived.

Le Pain Quotidien - Edit
They had loads of vegan baked goods and I was shocked at how delicious they were. I had vegan croissant and vegan torsade and was completely blown away. Both were sweet. I do prefer savory croissants, but LPQ did a good job with theirs despite it being a bit sweet. I have dreams about that vegan torsade though!

Nice but pricey - Edit
The place is nice and big, food is nice but honestly doesn't worth the heavy price... for this price I would expect something more subtle/complex in flavours and less simple it's very expensive.

nice place - Edit
Nice place, part of a chain, with carbon neutral policy, using organic ingredients and with well labelled vegetarian and vegan choices. There are some vegan desserts too. I had a Chili sin carne, topped with a avocado mash, that was so tasty and a vegan blueberry muffin (a little bit dry for me, but at the end was ok).
Read morePros: Carbon neutral, organic restaurant, Vegan choices are well labelled, Tasty food

Good vegan and vegetarian choice for lunch dinner and pastry - Edit
Though not purely vegan or vegetarian, this place offers choice of vegan and vegetarian food. I tried an apple and cinnamon tart, which was delicious. The café crème was also very good. In this centrally located café, the service was polite and efficient.

Yummy porridge - Edit
Delicious fruity porridge and tasty soy milk latte! Unfortunately the vegan brunch option was all Mediterranean style and non of it tasted fresh. The falafels had an odd frozen/packaged taste to them. Just stick to the baguette and porridge.
Read morePros: Porridge, Breads
Cons: Expensive , Limited options

Central location, fast and friendly - Edit
Ideal location for a quick break during a shopping day, this restaurant next to "Les Halles" supermarket offers some vegetarian and vegan options. The place is not too comfortable when it's cold outside since the door is always open, but service is fast and friendly. Vegan / vegetarian options are labelled. Food is freshly prepared and tasty.
Read morePros: Central location, veg options labelled, English me
