I just tried Le Caprice last week for the first time, and it was fabulous. Will be back very soon.

If any Marylanders are reading and interested...Bonaparte in Savage and Baltimore is wonderful.

Add me to the chorus for Le Caprice in Columbia Heights. The pastries are great (and it's also a great place to go with kids, versus Paul for example).

Amazing little place in Rockville! A bit tricky to find but the Yelp reviews give some easy directions. Beware, it's cash only.


Not OP, but thanks for the recommendation.


Have to second Saint Michel. Incredible pastries.


I know several French expats who swear by this place.

It does not compare to actual Parisian pastries.
