The new bakery, which replaces the former Boulangerie Patisserie in the pavilion, is much more spacious and offers a new, expanded menu. Offerings include pastries and other sweets, soups, sandwiches, salads and authentic French dishes such as quiche, Croque Monsieur (grilled ham and cheese) and pissaladiere, a pizza-like dish from the South of France.
The bakery opens at 9 a.m. every morning, before the official 11 a.m. World Showcase opening time.
The Disney Dining Plan is accepted for many items at this location.
The former patisserie is being remodeled and will soon reopen as an ice cream shop called Glacier.
