This is a legit little French boulangerie that absolutely delivers. The food is fantastic, and the mille-feuille is hands down the best I’ve ever had in the U.S.—perfectly crisp, creamy, and not overly sweet. Everything tastes authentic, like something you’d find in a neighborhood bakery in France, with a great selection of classic French dishes and pastries. The space is cute, welcoming, and very fairly priced for the quality. A must-visit if you’re ever in the Del Rey/Alexandria area.

I popped in on a mild Winter day, and I tried the Iced Mocha with a slice of double chocolate cake. What I liked most about the Iced Mocha were the small shavings of chocolate at the bottom of the cup — they added yumminess when sipping it through a straw. The double chocolate cake was good, but the topping was on the dry side from sitting out in the open all morning. After walking a few more errands and taking my next snack break, I pulled from my bag the Everything Beignet. Mind you, I never do “everything” anything but I am partial to trying any flavor of beignet. Now this beignet was a nice size, fresh tasting, flavorful everything topping — simply delish! Then my tastebuds noticed the hint of lemon mixed in filling that made their Everything Beignet such a delight. All was good

I used to really like coming to Gustave whenever I was in the area. Their sandwiches are really good, and still are, but it's also been kinda mid here lately. I recently ordered a pumpkin cream cold brew, and its mostly large chunks of ice. I could barely get my straw in, and the drink itself is very watery. I didn't get a full five sips and it's gone. I also got a citron tart, but I asked to eat it here and they couldn't even be bothered to give me a plate. It also started melting right away? I've never had a tart do that. I've been kind of put off, so I don't think I'll frequent this place as often anymore...

Great place !! To practice your French! Bonjour !! Pick a tasteful desert like the chocolate beignets with a touch of orange blossom and cafe mocha with real sweetened whole chocolate chips that are melted to order ! Or perhaps you can pick up a Jamon baguette! Oh la, la …. With another sweet made fresh every day tiramisu!! I love this place ! They also have drinks outside and playground for dogs and kiddos ! The owners are super sweet ! The community loves them! I so appreciate the greatness ! Merci!!
