Had an absolutely delicious Pecan Praline Scone and a local Plum Chousson with a cup of wonderful black coffee. Ladies working there are great.P

Violette's Pastry Café in Clarkdale, AZ, offers a delightful Parisian cafe experience with a cozy ambiance and charming train caboose exterior. Renowned for its high-quality, beautifully crafted pastries such as flaky croissants, the café promises an enjoyable visit with the help of friendly staff who provide knowledgeable recommendations. It's a perfect spot for anyone looking to indulge in delicious French pastries and a moment of culinary bliss on Main Street Clarkdale. I am now thoroughly addicted.

This is a cafe where you need to understand the details. If you are looking for a French breakfast experience and don't mind eating primarily sweets, hey it's a 5-star place. Cute as a button, lovely owner and staff, very French. All high quality. However, if you are looking for eggs, or a full breakfast, then I will refer you to the Red Rooster or Crema Cafe, in OldTown Cottonwood. I myself am rather unwilling to eat much sugar, so I would not try to eat a breakfast here again. Fabulous cappuccino, but remember this is European style, 5 oz, not some Starbucks Grande. There are a few savory items, but they mostly have ham or turkey, so those of us who don't eat meat will pass them by. But still, even if you're fine with a Croque monsieur or some such, note that there are no sides. No potatoes. So for those who believe "breakfast for kings,..." you will not find what you need here. I think they have adopted to American life a bit too much by being a bit heavy with the sugar shaker. My standard of reference is still Paris Baguette. Yes, I know they are a Korean chain, but heck, their outlets are the best even in Manhattan, NY, according to my tastes, when I was living there. Very sparing of pouring sugar on. We have one outlet in North Scottsdale here, which I prefer over Violette's, but of course you're not going to drive 2 hours to grab some baked goods. (Do not go to their Tempe outlet, though). A wider selection at Paris Baguette and very light with the sugar shaker. Be aware that, like most bakeries, if you show up late, you may not have much of a selection. Ms. Godina: If you are looking at this, please consider cutting back on sugar. Merci beaucoup! But I thank you very much for bringing such a unique establishment to Clarkdale.

Amazing little bakery in Clarkdale AZ We discovered in our airbnb manual and got there right as it was opening. Line of at least 10 people. Everyone was friendly. I got the almond cherry crumble cake which was amazing! I also shared a couple other baked goods that were so good!!! We will definitely come back! Made freah every day!

The pastries are excellent and the setting is adorable. If the weather is good, there's hardly a nicer spot. Be advised the menu is greatly reduced from the photos you see here. It's only pre-prepared sandwiches and pastries, no made to order breakfast sandwiches which we didn't find out until we got there. The service was pleasant though a little slow, so be prepared for a bit of a wait.

One of the cutest places with the most amazing baked goods! Another reason I love Clarkdale

I've had this bakery on my list for so long and I am super happy that I finally was able to check it out! First of all, the entire set up is adorable. All the baked goods are beautifully displayed and the ladies behind the counter are more than willing to help you. Our family was up in the Cottonwood area for the day and decided to try a bunch or items; from savory to dessert and I can honestly say that every was made with love-you can totally taste the love. I will definitely be back whenever I'm in the area!

Super cute and unique stop! Had coffee and one of the best croissants EVER! My guy had a pistachio eclair that was very tasty. Tiny little train car with plenty of outside seating. We and the doggo had a nice break on our to the Grand Canyon. Wanted to hit up the virgin cheese shop across the street, but vender was closed, I guess for lunch.

Best kept secret for croissant sandwiches! The Monte Clarkdale was so delicious. It had a great balance between sweet and savory on a perfectly crisp croissant. The L'imposteur was equally yummy. Coffee also hit the spot. We stopped by here on our girls trip to Sedona for brunch and it was exactly what we needed. Quick, walk up to the window and seat yourself kind of vibe. Recommended to stop by for a quick bite on your way in or out of Sedona.
