This place is the best! Helen is amazing and everything she does is pure magic. Taste like heaven… the bakery, sandwiches , soups, coffees… are all so good. The meatball soup is my favorite. And the cinnamon roll is so good. The bear claw amazing.. I’ve been coming here for over 10 years.

Tried for the first time today. Purchased a cherry cheese danish and a bear claw. Sweeter by far than the average in my experience, but the texture, rise and flavors otherwise were excellent! This shop is not very clean, not well decorated, not orderly, nor well maintained (just trusting the sanitation is adequate in back!), but if taking out, just avert your eyes, because they have the best baked goods for miles!

Dangerous place - you want to come again and again for the pastries I don't think I have my favorite pastry or desert there - everything is so tasty, it's impossible to choose.

I didn't catch her name, but the lovely women who just helped us this Saturday morning was such a delight! Very friendly and chatty and was patient as my kids overwhelmingly tried to decide what to order as they've never been there before. I, on the other hand, knew exactly what I wanted, the breakfast paninis are amazing, so much better than other fast breakfast options! Can't wait to dig into the lemon loaf we picked out for the hubby!

Unbelievable delicious!! Fresh croissants, cinnamon rolls and other pastries. The lunch menu looks good and healthy, and SERVING SOUPS made from scratch. The portions are good and will satisfy you. The owners are super lovely, attentive and very kind. Looking for GOOD COFFEE and good pastry or panini?! This is the place. And if you ask a cappuccino, let her add the bit of chocolate, it’ll be fantastic. All over is a 10/5 stars! Smells fresh and taste even better. She made a nice dessert that has not been done in 8 months. There are still some slices left (12/2/23). The picture of the dessert is in my review.

I have been coming here for almost 2 years now and every time I get something it's always the highlight of my day! I definitely recommend Helen's Chateau Arme for any of her sweet or savory pastries!
