La Farine Boulangerie Patisserie

La Farina is a steadfast bakery with good sourdough breads, the best fogasse in the area, nice pastries and lovely ladies to serve. Cakes and pies are creative, pretty and inexpensive. The whole place is inexpensive and they are open every day at a few locations.

A must-stop in Piedmont! I stopped in for breakfast on a Thursday and loved both the ham and cheese croissant and the pour-over coffee. Don’t miss the McLaughlin coffee, it was excellent. The service was stellar: warm, attentive, and quick to answer questions with a smile. I was also impressed by the pricing, especially given the quality of the ingredients. I’ll definitely be back!

Absolutely nothing in common with French pastries from Europe. These are French-American pastries. They are dry, old, and bland. I don’t understand the big fuss about them.

Stopped into La Farine today after lunch to evaluate their pastry display, and the lemon cheesecake immediately caught my eye. Operational & Service Pacing The shop interior is immaculate, showcasing an excellent variety of high-quality pastries, cakes, and artisanal breads. Front-of-house service was completely seamless—highly professional, very friendly, and ultra-quick with absolutely no wait time. Product Evaluation: Lemon Cheesecake Transit & Structure: The cake travels exceptionally well, maintaining perfect form and clean layer lines on the trip home without any structural melting or collapsing. The Filling: The body of the cheesecake is top-tier—incredibly smooth, rich, and perfectly creamy. The Flavor Balance: The top features an excellent, vibrant lemon glaze that cuts beautifully through the richness of the cake. It's all anchored by a great, rustic crust with a distinct nutty flavor. Verdict The entire cake tasted ultra-fresh, as if it had just been finished in the kitchen. La Farine continues to prove itself as a fantastic neighborhood bakery that executes classic pastry work at a highly reliable level.

They're known for their fruit tarts and they absolutely live up to the hype - light, creamt custard and fresh, juicy fruits. The red velvet cupcake is a ljttle disappointing: too dry and too bright artificial red. I also got the sour batard when I came back and it was great, nice tangy flavor and chewy crust. They do use white flour so the interior is more soft and less chewy, so that comes down to personal preference.
