Favourite place to get pastries and desserts! Definitely recommend to all.
Merci for existing in my life ... :) I love it, MAGNIFIQUE !!!
Friendly service. Pastries are delish. I’ve tried their Apple Turnover. Coffee is average.
I would recommend if they could keep their pastries in a warming cabinet or something. Should have asked if they could heat up my apple turnover. (Unsure if they could)
I’ll probably give a 3.5/5 for now, and will be back to try their chocolates and other pastries, before I revisit this review. :)
Lovers of all things French, rejoice! As the ultimate French pastry aficionado, I couldn’t pass an opportunity to attend Le Renault French Festival last weekend in Auckland which brings all things French together, under one roof!. The biggest highlights for me was of course the food. Whilst I’ve heard of famous pastry shops such as Paneton, Crepes shops and Patisserie Vaniyé in Parnell, Philippe\’s Chocolate & French Pastries shop in Grey Lynn was a great find as I managed to score a dark chocolate brioche, beetroot ciabatta and pistachio danishes!
Having a bit off a celebration, getting the La Brescia, Opera, Le Breton and a box of chocolates as well. They were all delicious, service and ambience is standard. Not giving a 5.0 as I really wanted to try the French Flan but there has been none every time I go in but fair enough if it's a business decision not to make it but it's still advertised on their website.
I go regularly during morning weekend walks.
- They have the best pastries in Auckland.
- Coffee only draw back.
- Chocolates great too, but bread and pastries are amazing.
Being a regular customer here, the staff, food and coffee never lets me down. Super friendly and attentive every time, pastries and coffee always so good, it gives this place such a nice atmosphere to be in. Always the same experience every time. You guys are awesome! 😊
Food is fantastic. A good variety of breads, but wish there were more. Pastries are the best in Auckland. Sweets look amazing and I'm told by my partner they taste great, but they like to put nuts in most things, so that counts me out. We love to pick up some bread and danish's from here for a weekend breakfast or lunch. Bread is so flavourful it can be eaten on its own.. Great service too, people here are friendly and helpful. The only thing I don't like about this place is the coffee, wish they'd learn to make it better.
Little french chocolate cafe on the main road, great north road. What stood our here was definitely was the staff and service which was excellent. Picked up some coffee, chocolate croissant (tri-croissant) and ham cheese pizza roll. Coffee was average, croissant not impressive (being a french cafe) and pizza roll was very good.
Wow! Love love love everything in Phillipes! The pastries oh the pastries are to die for!
The handmade chocolates and desserts look and taste divine!
It does not get better than this!
Delicious French pastries. Friendly helpful generous staff. I tried speaking some French but failed. Got some free samples. Also got a nice flat white coffee.
Their danish pastries are to die for!!! I've been absolutely hooked since I tried one back in 2014. I try and go there whenever I get a chance to because they're just so bloody good! lol
Got some really good pastries! Been a regular ever since i found them, worth it. The owner is a genuine guy, very friendly!
Nice food, specially you will get nuts with the nougat, far the best ever. The waitress spoke french but she kept the doors wide open in a cold winter morning. I asked closed them, she only closed one of them. I had to drink my hot chocolate very fast before to get a cold. Poor decoration, seems they rushed to put a few objects representing France including a faded colored Chocolate movie poster. Maybe I will buy the nougats by post only.
The team at Phillepes chocolate do amazing pastries. Today I sampled the blueberry danish and the almond croissant with frangipani filing. It feels as if you take a trip to France and the owners have mountains of experience in patisserie.
It doesn’t get more authentic than this!

Great little local place. Interesting, and creative chocolate flavours. Top tier pastries. Used to have amazing chocolate sculptures. Maybe one day again! Good coffee. Parking is a little difficult as you will have to go on one of the side streets but it def worth visiting this little hidden gem. 😉
I bought some of their chocolates at the French Festival. Oh, they were absolutely yum! The staff at the counter was very polite, friendly and had some really good customer service skills. These gourmet chocolates were made with care! Wish I had bought more. Would highly recommend and will definitely visit their store to buy more! :) Cheers
Perfect pastries and cakes,usually I would perfer enjoy my coffee in the shop,talk to the lovely barista,but through this rough time they provide attentive service,just order 50 or more then the foods could be develied to your place,I am very satisfied by this.Cheers
Had a great experience for Philippe’s. They made me a croquembouche for a 30th birthday. They were very responsive and easy to deal with, and the croquembouche was delicious and looked amazing. Would recommend for any special occasion.
Really nice place to visit, pastries & coffee on point. Filled Croissants nice but would benefit from being warmed slightly in cooler months.
Overall a great visit though, will visit again.
Fantastic coffee, great food, lovely staff, just needs some vegetarian or vegan options.
Good coffee, good chocolate eclair, good chocolate croissant, great almond croissant and tasty handmade chocolates
