Le Petit Cafe

The best experience in town. The food is always splendid, and the company too! Cozy inside and out.

This is a review for the walk up window. The owners of this french cafe are so sweet. The service is fast and the food is just the right balance of texture and flavors. The croissant was flaky and the prices were fantastic for what you got (8/10).

Amazing small family owned eatery. Love the man serving us. He reminds me of a mix between the candle stick from beauty and the beast and Albert Einstein lol. The food was all so very fresh and to die for. Cooked perfectly.

What a unique little place! I went there for a Sunday brunch. There were no menus - the server brought us a 3-course meal (a plate with salad, pastry and a quiche), beef and mushroom stew, and a desert! And we had coffees too. We paid ~$35+ tips for all of it! A perfect spot if you are open to new restaurant experiences.

Our experience here was wonderful! Everything they made was quality. You could tell they cared a great deal about the food they served. We had the cheese in pastry for and appetizer, it was fabulous! We then moved on to a steak dinner. The steak was cooked perfectly and the sauce they had on top was delicious. Our sides were generous and tasty. Our dessert was a custard and cookie soaked in brandy. Every element of the dessert melted in my mouth. My husband had a glass of red wine that was, you guessed it, delicious! I loved the French couple who owned the restaurant. You can tell it is there baby and they take great pride in it. They were very friendly, kind, and accommodating. I highly recommend coming here!

This is my favorite restaurant in Bloomington. It's open April-November, Saturdays 8-1 and Sundays 11:30-1:30. My favorite regular orders are the spinach & brie croissant ("croque") and the Cafe Au Lait. When they have a vegetarian quiche without mushrooms, I make it a priority to stop by because she makes the best quiche I have ever had and that includes my mom's. The owners are delightful. One time I saw a "floating island" dessert on the Great British Bake-Off (meringue in custard) and a couple weeks later I got to try it because Marina made it for the window! Follow their Facebook page if you want a weekly chuckle.

(not pictured - a steaming bowl of fish lasagna. It disappeared too quick) These folks do NOT mess around. The trio of starters, perfectly balanced flavors and textures, mushroom umami flavors more intense than I've ever experienced. I hope I'm back in town on a Sunday again soon so I can stop by, an unforgettable lunch experience.

Delicious food, great service, a really cute place with friendly hosts! Brunch was a nice surprise of a 3-course meal (no menu necessary, just show up and eat!), all very tasty, perfect portions, and all of it less than $20 per person.
