Le Chantilly has some amazing culinary offerings. If you like Napoleans, and are lucky enough to stop in on a day when they have just baked some, they are some of the best I've ever eaten. Their soups are all made from scratch and their green chili chicken croissants are amazing. Ignore the haters.. this is an Albuquerque treasure!
This is my childhood bakery. Been going there since I was a little boy with my mom. I take my kids there now and a trip to ABQ would not be complete without a trip to Le Chantilly, Sadie's, Dions Pizza, and Buffets Candy.
My first visit and I was very impressed. The interior is lovely, with a gorgeous mural running the length of the cafe. They had plenty of pastries to choose from, and clearly made with pride. Even my cappuccino was perfect. The staff was very helpful, so I don't know what those reviewers were complaining about. The Quiche Lorraine was outstanding, as well as the couple pastries I took with me. I'd recommend this place to the connoisseur looking for exceptional quality cafe.
Tasty lunch treats. The turkey mozzarella croissant with dilled mayo and a side of potato salad was just divine, All the breads and pastry items are extremely fresh and made with a lot of love. I enjoy dropping in to Le Chantilly for lunch or a quick coffee (and a sweet treat).
Good Food Marred by Indifferent Service. I ate lunch here and had the Quiche Lorraine, which was very good and authentically made. I also took home some pastries and bread, all of which was excellent.
However, the staff leave something to be desired. I sat there, trying to get the attention of five people behind the counter, all of whom were talking amongst themselves. Completely ignoring the customers in the cafe is inexcusable, and I was not the only one. A couple eating lunch had to go up to the cash register to get their check as no one checked back with them when they were finished with their meal.
This could be a good place to eat as the food is good, but the self-absorbed staff is a major turnoff.
Laura is amazing. Her cakes are beyond amazing and taste like heaven! Here are pics of her Princess Cake that I ordered for a birthday. It’s fit for a Queen to enjoy!👑😍 Highly recommend!!👍👍 Grab her frozen meals to go, too. Her spinach lasagna is absolutely delicious! You won’t regret eating anything from her lovely bakery/cafe!🙌
Love this place! Come in often to grab goodies from the dessert case. Had a spinach quiche and the honey bee coffee this morning, was very tasty.
1st time there, I ordered the chicken tarragon 1/2 sandwich with a cup of soup. Very good. Good coffee, a great wait person. Quiet. Lots of homemade goodies. Very fair price. 👍
Absolutely adorable Cafe. The experience was excellent and the food was delicious. The coffee was extraordinary in taste & serving size. We'll be back soon!
Really cute, quaint place. Lots of baked goodies. Delicious green chili & egg croissant- yum! Excellent customer service.
Some accessibility but also tight seating area (can make the space accessible).
Shop will close 3pm almost everyday. Bought dark chocolate cake. Perfect! Less sweet and compact of the taste. Cost 16$ for 4 pax size
Decent place for a quick sweet bite in Albuquerque. Prices are definitely higher than they should be (average of $5 per dessert, which is about the same price you pay for the best desserts in Paris).
Came here mainly to support small local businesses, which I’m glad I did, but nothing special.
Best pastries in Albuquerque. Their chocolate croissants are far superior to anyone else's. Everything is of high quality and fresh.
Had the framboise blanc for our wedding and it was the best cake I have ever tasted in my entire life. Hands down!
This place has a decent selection of goodies and staff is friendly and helpful. I’ve not eaten there, just purchased some pastries. While I like their products, my main issue is that their icing is WAY too sweet. It over powers the taste of the pastries. Their pecan rolls are the best since they don’t use icing on it. Too many of the other products have too much icing on them, which detracts from the overall taste because they are too sweet. I prefer a more balanced taste.

Really cute and cozy place. Small deli with authentic French pastries and lunch items. Staff is friendly and I can enjoy a cup of café cream while waiting for the bike shop (2 or 3 doors down) to open.
Perfect wedding cake! Amazing flavors and only 1 extra slice at the end of the night. Cuts cleanly and was soo pretty. Reasonable price for the amazing gourmet quality. Thanks Le Chantilly!
Very cute, French cafe type decor. Food very good. Worth a look. Apparently it's been there for about 20 years.
Can't say enough about this place. A meal to go in each croissant. Carné Asada or a sweet raspberry w cheese and a hot coffee. The staff is always there with a kind words. Pre covid was the spot for breakfast.
They were extremely helpful in making a decision because they do have quite a variety
From the outside, Le Chantilly looks like a random spot in an unassuming strip mall. The reality is, they have AMAZING french pastries, a friendly and welcoming staff, and a very relaxed atmosphere to meet up with a friend over coffee or tea or grab something to go.
Do you need alt milk to go in your coffee? They've got it. Looking for an interesting tea blend to sip with your croissant? They have that too.
My go-to pastries are the Alexander Tart and the Apricot Twist, but friends I've come here with also enjoy their lunches.
Though principally French in influence, there are of course a few New Mexican traditions that have snuck their way into the menu. If you're in the ABQ area, definitely check them out!
High-quality, scratch-made delicious sweet & savory pastries, good coffee, daily lunch specials, friendly staff.
Loved Le Chantilly. The service was great, felt like I was treated like a friend and better yet, the green chile turky croissant and desert we got was Phenomenal and filling. Can't wait to share this cafe/bakery with friends.
