La Baguette

Found this charming little cafe on my way to Garden of the Gods, located in Old Colorado City. I asked the employee working what the most popular breakfast sandwich was and he suggested Tomato, egg and Swiss on a baguette. I went ahead and ordered that. The sandwich was very good. The baguette was perfectly toasted, a bit crunchy and still soft. The tomatoes were fresh and Swiss melted perfectly on top.

So irritated right now!!! WTH??? We have been coming here for a long time. We stopped by to grab some croissants (it's been a few months since we were here). We got almond etc. These USED TO have a good amount of filling, which is why they were the best!! Fed up with greedy business's. I get home and this is what it is now. NOTHING in there hardly. I MAY AS WELL HAVE BOUGHT A PLAIN CROISSANT. WHAT A RIPOFF $4.50. I am very sad as this has always been our go to for croissants!! NEVER COMING BACK HERE!!!!

We came for breakfast this morning and to buy two croissants to take home. I had a ham cheese omelette and paid extra to have it with a croissant instead of a roll. My husband had a ham cheese croissant sandwich. To say we were disappointed for the $45 we paid is an understatement. The croissants were heavy, stale and obvious was not fresh from today but old. They are supposed to be flaky and airy and were none of it. The ham in the omelette was very cold , the same with my husbands ham. We hardly ate our breakfast and will not be back. I am from Europe and half French and this was not even close to a good croissant. You can see the inside of the croissant, it is not flaky at all. We just moved to Colorado from Virginia but need to keep looking for decent croissants.

Its alright. The food is solid, it's pretty simple but I enjoy it. I find myself coming back for the French onion soup. What bothers me is that their coffee service kinda sucks. Still, i enjoy getting a bite and sitting outside when the weather is nice.

My favorite lunch-for-1 spot, with a bowl of French onion soup, a crusty baguette sandwich and a glass of wine. Their sweets are amazing! Pick any, you can't go wrong! They have quiche, omelets, ravioli, and a board full of seasonal specials. Almost every plate comes with fresh, seasonal fruit.
