Chez Marie Pâtisserie

A little gem of Parisian goodness, Chez Marie Patisserie is sweetly tucked near HomeGoods and SouthPark Mall, making it the perfect stop while you’re out shopping. I met Claudia on this visit, she is sweet and aims to please. Although I took many photos of goodies, I kept it classic for my first visit: a traditional croissant paired with an Americano. The coffee brand is Pellini, and I have to say, it was smooth and perfectly balanced, definitely not bitter like some can be. Just right. And the pastries? Some looked like edible works of art. Women especially love French Macarons, and over on the wall is a box that they will fill with your choices. They also have cards at the register to write a sweet note. I’ll be back to try more and will gladly add to this review. Bon appétit 🍴 Joseph

I absolutely loved eating here. The staff was incredibly friendly and very helpful whenever we had questions about the menu. The patisserie was so cute and sleek-looking. The food and drinks came out very fast and it was some of the most delicious food I've had. Their Chez Marie was warming and had a beautiful blend of flavors, not to mention how crunchy and immediately fluffy their French baguette for the sandwich was. Their hazelnut tart tasted like FUN, no other way to describe it. It felt like an autumn party in my mouth, yet just teetered the line between decadent and sickly sweet. Their chai had a subtle fall flavor that you constantly wanted to go back for more. I highly recommend eating here.

this place is so cute 😍! the service was very good with attentive staff that took time to explain the pastries. i was asked several times if i wanted more hot water for my tea. the plates were cleared quickly after finishing our pastry. the place is intimate, but not stuffy. the lemon meringue is worth another trip alone! just perfect. the earl grey i had was not very fragrant. just tasted like black tea. i would suggest they use smaller plates and utensils for serving certain items. as you see my one dessert looked tiny on the plate. i will revisit. i really enjoyed myself.

I love a good coffee and a dessert that's perfect from presentation to flavor, with its balance, textures, contrast, and freshness. All their desserts are fresh daily, and you can taste the quality. It's my favorite coffee shop in CLT. The atmosphere and the friendliness of all the staff are exceptional. Claudia is outstanding; she's always making sure everything is perfect and is very attentive throughout the service. You can feel her passion for giving a great experience to everyone who comes to the coffee shop, and she knows how to explain the flavor profiles, from the desserts to the teas. All the employees are very friendly and helpful.

I was really disappointed. After reading all the amazing reviews we were in Charlotte for a visit and decided to give this place a try. The atmosphere was pretty but that was all to it . The employees behind the counter did not understand English ?! Nothing close to European cafes’ or patisseries . Their cake and croissants aren’t that special ; They just look tempting. The space looks much crowded & smaller than the photos online as well .
