PAUL

Paul is your classic French bakery that, on a good day, serves up pastries that melt in your mouth. The ambiance is charming enough to lure you in with warm lights and fresh-baked goodies that smell like heaven. But then you get hit with the service that’s less ‘Bonjour’ and more ‘Bon chance’ as you navigate the chaos of the counter. It's like a bakery run by a bunch of teenagers who’re too cool for school, and they’re not afraid to show it.

So, if you're in the mood for a delicious croissant and you can somehow cope with the attitude, Paul can be a reasonable stop. Just remember to check your expectations at the door — you’re not coming here for five-star service, but those pastries might just make up for it. It's a fuel stop for your taste buds, but don't expect to linger if you want a pleasant experience.
