Located at 5–7 Boulevard Saint‑Michel, steps from the famous fountain and the Saint‑Michel metro/RER station, BO&MIE – Saint Michel is the latest outpost of the creative bakery brand launched in 2017. Since its opening in November 2022 in the 5th arrondissement, the shop blends artisan production, inventive flavors, and affordable prices.

Upon entering, guests step into a modern, light‑filled interior featuring a cozy seating area with free wifi and a relaxed pop‑chill vibe typical of BO&MIE. The display showcases buttery viennoiseries, breads made from a 24‑hour fermentation process, and inventive pastries (New‑York rolls, babas, seasonal tarts, cookie‑shots…), all prepared fresh daily on site.

History: This location embodies the founders’ vision—Jean‑François Bandet and Magali Szekula—of combining classic French craftsmanship with bold creativity and ingredient transparency.

What you can do there: Grab a breakfast on the go, enjoy coffee and viennoiserie during a city break, or stay for lunch with a bagel, quiche, or sandwich and a cappuccino. The New‑York roll is a frequently praised signature item. The cookie‑shot is popular, though some reviewers mention mixed opinions about its consistency or taste.

Ambience: Trendy and bustling, with staff often described as friendly, smiling, and attentive. Some feedback notes busy service during peak hours and occasional cleanliness issues that could be improved.

Target audience: Students, professionals, and tourists in the Latin Quarter, families enjoying breakfast pastries, and visitors seeking a gourmet yet budget‑friendly stop.

Anecdotes:

The New‑York roll, praised by many reviewers as crispy and generously filled, is a standout favorite.

A queue outside is taken by some as a sign of popularity and good quality.

Some Reddit users rank BO&MIE’s pain au chocolat among the best in Paris, even though it's part of a chain.
