Don't Miss Bonaparte Breads Baltimore

By Coleen Torres


If you live in the Maryland-Northern Virginia area, you may already be familiar with the fine French breads and pastries of Pierre LeFilliatre. They are sold in fine shops and restaurants throughout the area. However, the Bonaparte Breads Baltimore cafe in Fells Point is a place fans of these authentic products might want to visit to truly understand what this Frenchman has brought to America.

This is a well-appointed place, offering everything from a child's menu to free wifi. Many of the online reviews mention the luxurious leather chairs, which make spending time in the cafe remarkably comfortable. Open from 8 AM to 6 PM seven days a week, the cafe offers coffee and other beverages, authentic brick-oven breads made from organic flours, sandwiches and quiches, salads, and delicious pastries.

LeFilliatre used to have a cafe in the heart of Paris. He opened his first American one in Savage Mill, Maryland. The old building on Ann Street in Fells Point is the perfect second location, with fine views of the water, room for a spacious and comfortable dining room, and ample outdoor seating. The ambiance as well as the food is French. The cafe is family-friendly, offering a child's menu, as well as having wifi for those who want it.

Locally sourced ingredients are made fresh daily into quiches, salads, sandwiches, and desserts. Sandwiches are served hot or cold, and the lunch special includes beverage, whole sandwich, small salad, and pastry of choice - enough even if you're really hungry. You really must try a tasty sandwich made on the panini grill. For those who want a lighter meal, chicken and tuna salad are made on-site.

The coffee is robust and comes in all the popular styles. Tea and coffee are served in large cups, with one free refill. Dessert pastries are the cafe's focus - along with the breads - and are justly famous throughout the area. The almond croissants and fruit tarts keep popping up in reviews as not to be missed.

Bonaparte Breads offers carry out as well as eat-in, and they would love to do your wedding, birthday, or other celebration cake. Their great products are found in many farmers' markets, organic stores, and restaurants in Washington DC, Baltimore, and Annapolis. Check out the home website for more on the history, atmosphere, and menu offerings of this great place to meet friends, relax with the whole family, or stop in while visiting historic Fells Point.

Fells Point lends its historic charm and prime inner-harbor location to the total experience. This once-independent town was founded in 1763 but has been part of the larger city since 1773. The oldest residence in Baltimore is found there. The cafe provides the perfect spot for lunch or an afternoon break in sightseeing.

It's hard to beat the combined attractions of historic Fells Point and authentic French cuisine. Go online to find out more about both the cafe and the historic district.
