Here’s a glinpse inside.

According to Boulangerie Saint Georges’ co-owner Louis Khenane, the new French bakery across from Eastern Market will hold its grand opening on Friday, April 10.  He says he is happy to share this slice of French culture, presenting authentic French bread and pastries baked on the premises.

St. Georges plans to post baking schedules so locals can time purchases of croissants, breads and pastries as they come hot out of the ovens.  The shop will offer full coffee service – drip to espresso to cappuccino – featuring Italian coffee, as well as sandwiches on baguettes.  This summer, Khenane expects to begin serving bistro fare. 

The café at 303 7^th Street, SE, will be the first U.S. venture for the team of restaurateurs who own five restaurants in Paris.

Saint-Georges is currently hiring barista/bakery counter staff.
