Saint-Germain & Saint-Sulpice
The Saint-Germain sourdough institution since 1932.
Best Baguette de Paris 2024 winner, sourdough, charcoal-black tradition, and weekend croissant programme
Erwan Blanche and Sébastien Bruno opened Utopie on rue Jean-Pierre Timbaud in 2015 with a long-fermentation sourdough programme and a viennoiserie counter that pushed beyond the standard 11e bakery. Xavier Netry won the Grand Prix de la Baguette de Paris 2024 here, the prize delivers fresh baguettes to the Élysée every morning for a year. The charcoal-coloured baguette (vegetable charcoal in the dough) is the photo; the standard tradition is the order. Weekend viennoiserie rotates, chocolate-flower croissants, rice-pudding tartlets, matcha kouign-amann, and the queue out the door starts at 09:00. Two minutes from Parmentier metro.
Saturday morning before 10:30 for the full weekend viennoiserie rotation. The charcoal baguette is the photo; the tradition is the order.
