We've been going since this opened and it never disappoints. In addition to the obvious bread, I always find some baking treat or tea or some fun surprise. The madelines are classic and delicious.

We were told we needed to stop here while up in Pittsburgh - that their French bread is amazing....well they were right! The bread was amazing as were the dark chocolate madeleines and the macaroons. AND the surprise we got when we walked in was...just amazing. The ambiance was like you just stepped into a bakery in Paris. Will definitely return when we're back in the area.More
Whenever we are near Colebrook we stop here. They have the best breads and french pastries. The only place that might compare is Paris. They are from France and the decor and smells make you feel like you are in a Paris Cafe. I saw...the comments about them not being too friendly...don't let that scare you. They are somewhat reserved and quiet but we don't go there for conversation ...we go there for the best bakery products you can find. We always buy bread and pastries to take home.I wish they could ship them to upstate New York...but then I would weigh 500 lbs. It is always the highlight of our trips to New Hampshire!More
This is a bakery. You can sit and enjoy the mostly spectacular tarts and croissants, or buy bread to take home. I sat and had pear tart with my wife, and took pastries home. I went back the next day for more. I think you...will like it, too.More
We stopped by for bread and to practice my French. Both were rewarding. Not only did we get bread but the croissants were delicious. They have great herbs and spices that I wasn't expecting. The shop has a beautiful place to sit, relax and have...coffee, tea and a bite.More
We were off on a Moose watching ride in our car. Drove 200 miles to see Moose - NO MOOSE! Stopped here by chance at 5:34 PM as my wife wanted a coffee and it said bakery café. Wow! This is a real Bakery Café....Very nice Frenchmen who is the Baker, Chocolatier etc. He was actually closed, but let us buy coffee and pastries. Beautiful inside, great displays, all sorts of confections and pastries. I wish we found it an hour earlier. We would have loved to spend some time there relaxing on the sofas etc. Too the car we went with our coffee and goodies. Great coffee, great stop, pleasant proprietor! Town folks are fortunate to have this place right on Main St.More
We discovered Le Rendez-Vous while searching for a spot to buy some yummy breakfast treats for our recent nearby wedding. After an online search and a local recommendation turned up this gem, we were very surprised upon walking in to find such a charming, authentic,...European bakery in this far corner of New Hampshire. Aside from the fabulous decor, we were really pleased with the variety of options for treats and small meal items, including vegetarian choices. They have an excellent grocery section as well and prices are very reasonable. A true find, and our wedding guests loved their breakfast!More
The owner was very welcoming and brought us our strawberry rhubarb croissants and coffee and tea on small trays with heart and moon shaped sugar . It was extraordinary ! We purchased several items to go like spices, rice , chocolate and madeleines of amazing...flavor like lemon, chocolate orange , chocolate filled etc . All were delightful ! A definite must stop in Colebrook . We wish we didn't live 8 hours away , I'd be here everyday !More
This establishment is primarily French, fresh bread, baked goods, herbs & spices. Sometimes there is piano playing, and you can enjoy a bit to eat in calm serenity. They also have amazing chocolate and decadent desserts! Definitely worth a visit!
why cant anyone make a baguette like these people? and the pastries are off the charts ! not too sweet, great quality ingredients. go here !
Thought we'd taken a wrong turn into France after tasting the bread and desserts here. Very special and how the rendezvous happened in remote NH, who knows?
There is no better way to describe Le Rendez-Vous than to write that a visit is like being at any bakery in Paris. The selections, displays and smells are always superb as are the customers sitting or coming in and out.
If you want some of the freshest bread and pastries in town this is the place. The aroma alone is worth the stop.
Who would think to go to Colebrook NH for authentic French bread and pastries? I sure wouldn't have. Open mornings and afternoons, the earlier you go the better the selection. Fantastic fresh baked breads and pastries, madelines, and a selection of baking goods and imported...foods. European chocolates abound. You can rack up a good bill though on some products, but the baked goods are reasonably priced and well worth it for the quality. If you see an almond croissant left, grab it, they are amazing. Owned and operated by a couple, and at my last visit they did not take credit cards so make sure you have cash.More
This couple is from France, mans make awesome breads and pastries, as well a wonderful soups and salads for lunch
