WHO ARE WE ?
Launched in 2018 with a mission to revolutionize the world of bakery, The French Bastards stands apart from any other establishment.
Armed with our slogan "Founded Yesterday," we boldly assert our desire to shake up the conventions of a profession too often bound by tradition.
Here, there’s no family legacy to uphold: we’re forging our own path, reinventing the art of baking daily with a thoroughly modern, irreverent, and uninhibited spirit.
WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT
- Products that reflect who we are: indulgent, bold, and unapologetically foodporn. Each creation—from the crispy croissant to the decadent pastry—mirrors our taste for controlled excess and innovation.
- Our ambition is to become a major player in the bakery scene. From eight shops today, we’re moving toward a future filled with new openings and expansion, always with the same passion. The French Bastards is no longer just the neighborhood bakery; we’re an emerging brand with an ambitious vision.
- Our journey is about more than joining a company; it’s about joining a family—the Bastards. There’s a strong sense of belonging here, and if you share our vision of a modern, committed bakery, you already have a place with us.
