ℳ𝒶𝓎♍October 6, 2016I'm pretty loyal to the LPQ brand for the healthy organic options they deliver, and this one in Columbus Circus is just as sound as the rest. A perfect breakfast spot before hitting Central Park!
Kevin GordonMarch 4, 2017Gorgeous food, fabulous for brunch. Massive coffee when you go large. My favourite place all week. Soup astonishingly good! Croquet messier was wonderful too. Highly recommended! Lovely service too.
Le Pain QuotidienApril 10, 2014Just steps from the gates of the world-famous Central Park, and a block away from Carnegie Hall and Columbus Circle, we are a convenient meeting point for those visiting nearby attractions. Read more
Camille VerdierOctober 11, 2015One of the best breakfast I have ever had! Great selection of healthy food, and for those who don't care: try every single spread you can find. They are delicious!
CamillaApril 23, 2017YES! No matter where in the world you find this cafe the quality of the food and drinks is always the best. Have never been disappointed by Le Pain Quotidien..
Ed McCuistonAugust 4, 2018Gluten-free options. Try the salmon and potato skillet, add avocado, with gluten-free toast or the quinoa cake. Delicious!
Giorgio Onorato AquilaniNovember 24, 2012Make sure to have the Riz Au Lait and a cup of fresh berries for breakfast! It's delicious... Don't hesitate to point here for lunch or dinner too, they serve delicious healthy food all day long!
James BedfordOctober 8, 2016Belgian Waffle w/ Berries and Mocha - one of the best breakfasts I've ever had. Pain au Chocolat was lovely but not as memorable
Nothing can go wrong in Le Pain Quotidien. My personal all-timer is the Organic Bread Basket and spreads, c'est bon. Try the brown rice pudding as well, unparalleled anywhere.
Louisa RigaliDecember 27, 2014Gorgeous smoked-salmon breakfast... The chia pudding and one-a-day green juice are also phenomenal.
Serious EatsMarch 19, 2013Rustic loaves of bread, salads, sandwiches, and pastries all prepared on the spot with reclaimed wood communal tables for seating.
Paula BuzzoMarch 20, 2017Greek yogurt and berries 😋 I will come back to try other things on menu for sure...
Julia OganesyanJuly 10, 2018Bowl is very good and healthy! when Skillet egg - not really. Very small portion and in option with avocado and crispy onions - onions portion was really small too.
Bigmac EaterJune 9, 2015Belgian Waffle, various chocolate spreads and the pot of coffee are all amazing. Best coffee I've had in New York
Bohdan HnatkovskyyMarch 14, 2019Good breakfasts and coffee. This location is good because of nice window seating and close walk to Central Park.
Mafe Sotillo LairetMay 15, 2017Great place to work out of the office! Their acai bowl is delicious. Didn't like their coffee at all!
New York HabitatMay 21, 2012This cafe has international locations and serves organic food in a warm and inviting ambiance, we absolutely love this place!
Ana Carolina MelloNovember 21, 2012Great place for breakfast. Cozy place, Really good waffle and amazing pain au chocolat. The waiters are very nice too.
annaloopJune 22, 2015Everyone elses' food looked great. But the oatmeal I had is nothing special, neither is the green juice. I guess the avocado toast is the best choice.- Michael Fox-RabinovitzJanuary 19, 2015Solid simple food,good hot cider for winter days, sandwiches pretty solid uniformly
BradApril 23, 2014Great place for breakfast. Great atmosphere. Popular with locals. Reasonably priced. Free wiFi.- Suzanne OswaldAugust 1, 2016Great atmosphere. Avocado toast was delicious and a generous portion. Excellent service
Toni SpottJanuary 21, 2012We are always one of the few Americans here & we love it! Great hearing all the different languages spoken with breakfast.
For all you jet lagged tourists and Belgians, this PQ only opens at 7am. The one at 5th x 53rd at 6:30! ( but that one is smaller and limited daylight)
Romeo PunzalanJuly 7, 2015Healthy food, but desserts are lacking. Ordered the Banoffee Tart: Had to use a knife to cut the tart, cream has no flavor, & where is the "banana". Seems like it was made, the placed in a freezer
Joshua MartensJanuary 2, 2013Get a loaf of their raisin bread to bring home with you. It's more than delicious!
The waffle is delicious even it's a small portion it's worth it!
Ayse Kaya FiratAugust 24, 2012Coffee stop after a long walk in Central Park. Best on cold winter days.
ROSE GARCIAMay 26, 2011I always order the same exact thing at every location Red Quinoa Salad, so delicious try it!
Malin RichardsonNovember 30, 2010Drink the Belgian chocolate, it is delicious! But be careful, don't add a lot of the chocolate, it is extremely strong!
Brian HoeftApril 5, 2012Good for a breakfast meeting. Table service with elbow room. I like the berries cup.
Get the mint lemonade with every meal! It's tart, refreshing and addictive!
Rado LipusFebruary 25, 2014Second time here and again many Europeans and Austrians. Zwa echte Wiener sitting next to me.
