Don't Miss Bonaparte Breads Baltimore

By Coleen Torres


Baltimore, Maryland's capital, is an historic city with an enchanting area called Fells Point. Founded in 1763, this inner port town became part of the larger metropolitan area ten years later, has the city's oldest existing residence, and is believed to be the site of the first pre-Revolutionary War coffee house. Bonaparte Breads Baltimore is on the Ann Street Pier with extensive outdoor seating as well as a great view of the water from the spacious interior.

This is a well-appointed place, offering everything from a child's menu to free wifi. Many of the online reviews mention the luxurious leather chairs, which make spending time in the cafe remarkably comfortable. Open from 8 AM to 6 PM seven days a week, the cafe offers coffee and other beverages, authentic brick-oven breads made from organic flours, sandwiches and quiches, salads, and delicious pastries.

LeFilliatre used to have a cafe in the heart of Paris. He opened his first American one in Savage Mill, Maryland. The old building on Ann Street in Fells Point is the perfect second location, with fine views of the water, room for a spacious and comfortable dining room, and ample outdoor seating. The ambiance as well as the food is French. The cafe is family-friendly, offering a child's menu, as well as having wifi for those who want it.

Locally sourced ingredients are made fresh daily into quiches, salads, sandwiches, and desserts. Sandwiches are served hot or cold, and the lunch special includes beverage, whole sandwich, small salad, and pastry of choice - enough even if you're really hungry. You really must try a tasty sandwich made on the panini grill. For those who want a lighter meal, chicken and tuna salad are made on-site.

Coffee or assorted teas are served in large cups, with a free refill. Rave reviews talk about a cup of great coffee and an almond croissant or fruit tart as the perfect afternoon break. All the bread is made with organic flours: baguettes, country loaves made with unbleached flour, or whole wheat and multi-grain varieties. Fruit breads are another favorite offering of the cafe.

Sitting in a leather chair in the cafe or outside on the water is great, but there is also take-away if you want to enjoy the fare at home or with friends elsewhere. The pastry chefs will also do your wedding cake or help highlight some other celebration. The staff is happy to customize a meal for you, taking into account dietary restrictions and personal preferences. Check out the home page to see the menu, learn more about the owner's mission, and get the phone number for contact.

There are many customer reviews on this important part of the major historic district of the city. Four and five stars are given over and over by patrons. The owner wants everyone to know that freshness and authenticity are his main objectives, as well as good service, good food, great coffee, and a pleasant ambiance.

It's hard to beat the combined attractions of historic Fells Point and authentic French cuisine. Go online to find out more about both the cafe and the historic district.
