Just north of the Tuileries Gardens, Au Grand Richelieu bakery has been serving baguettes since before Waterloo. Stop in for the traditional bread, or treat yourself to a pastry. There is plenty to choose from: not only croissants, but also a delicious "opera" cake and specialties from the owner's native region of Normandy.
For just 5€, you can take a behind-the-scenes visit of the bakery through Meet the Parisians at Work
