Located in the heart of Paris’s 20th arrondissement, Le 57 Bakery (SARL Avron Plaisirs) is a beloved neighborhood spot known for its super‑flaky croissants, pain au chocolat, pistachio éclairs, and a wide selection of traditional breads and savory grab‑and‑go options. Nestled at 57 rue d’Avron, just beside the historic Saint‑Jean‑Bosco church, it’s easily reached via the Avron and Buzenval metro stations.

Open from 6.30 AM to 8 PM Tuesday through Saturday, and until 6 PM on Sundays (closed Mondays), this bakery serves early risers and afternoon visitors alike. As noted by customers, its excellent value stands out: a typical order (baguette, pastries, coffee) costs around €9.

Atmosphere is described as warm, friendly, and clean, with prompt service and staff who speak English fluently to assist international guests. Seating is limited but cozy: a few inside tables offer a peaceful setting for enjoying a pastry.

Signature items like the white‑chocolate viennoiserie and pistachio éclairs are praised for their creativity and refined flavor. Optional offerings sometimes include gluten‑free pastries or savory options like quiche, croque‑monsieur, and paninis.

The bakery opened in 2006 under Avron Plaisirs, led by Fatiha Desfoux. Though its company listing was deregistered in 2018, the bakery remains active and well‑reviewed through 2025. A charming local detail: the neighboring Saint‑Jean‑Bosco church enhances the neighborhood vibe and offers a picturesque backdrop to the experience.
