Le Panier is a bakery and pasty shop at Seattle's Pike Place Market, in the U.S. state of Washington.
Description
The French bakery has served baguettes, chouquettes, croissants, feuilletés with vegetables such as champignons and asparagus, macarons, meringues, pain au chocolat, and hazelnut sablé cookies.
In 2016, Lauren Rothman of Time Out Seattle said "this classic French boulangerie and patisserie pays equal loving attention to both its collection of breads and pastries. Its seasonally changing menu incorporates temporal ingredients into both—think pumpkin macarons and a French loaf studded with caramelized onions—and a range of savory tartlets tempts with bacon, egg and cheese, creamy chicken and more options."
The shop has also served king cakes ("La Galette des Rois") for Mardi Gras.
History
Hubert Loevenbruck founded Le Panier. Kristi Drake and Thierry Mougin purchased the business from him in 1995. The restaurant participated in Sweet Week in 2015.
