If you’re craving authentic French pastries reminiscent of the treats you’d find at Parisian boulangeries, Mille Feille delivers. The bakery knocks it out of the park with authentic baked goods, especially the namesake mille-feuille (referred to as Napoleon in North America).
The Brooklyn bakery couldn’t be cozier. It’s not very large, but it has all the basics covered. Excelling at macaroons and croissants, this local spot is a natural stop for a midday pick-me-up while exploring Prospect Heights.
