The Story – The year was 1886 when Fauchon's first store opened its doors to sell Parisians some of the same delicacies you'll still find there today.

Avoid for tea service
by cylonmag
This was one of the worst teaing places I've been too. I can't believe they call themselves french. They served domino sugar with their coffee and had pastries that were mediocre at best. For an "upscale" and pricey place I would of expect nothing less than cube sugars.

- Pros: cute store front
- Cons: expensive and horrible tea sandwiches and pastries

Fauchon's chocolates and pastries are delicious. The price is a little steep but well worth it. Service is a little slow..so be sure that if you go, you are not in a hurry.
