- Most bakeries operate as walk-in only with counter service. Cash is handy at smaller venues, though most accept cards.
- If buying a loaf, ask what was baked that morning. Many boulangeries bake in batches, and a loaf straight from the second bake is worth timing your visit for.
- Weekends are busier. If the bakery is well-known, expect queues on Saturday and Sunday mornings. Weekday visits are calmer.
