Le Pain Quotidien in Rye

Fans of the communal table will be happy to know that Le Pain Quotidien has opened their first suburban New York location on Purchase Street in Rye. Featuring long wood tables and oak floors, the restaurant feels like you’ve come home for a family meal. You can sit down at the communal table and meet your neighbors or grab one of the private tables that run along the periphery.

Well-known here and abroad for their fresh food and innovative seating concept, the new site is a welcome addition to the Westchester restaurant scene.  Breakfast features organic coffees, teas, brioche, croissants and oatmeal with berries.  At lunchtime you’ll find a tempting array of salads, tartines, soup and daily plates.  We tried the ricotta tartine which is an open face sandwich served with mission figs, tomato and acacia honey as well as the roasted turkey with scallions and herbs both on freshly-baked whole wheat bread.

Their breads and pastries are also for sale at the counter.

Desserts include pound cake, brownies, fruit tarts and meringues.  Since the restaurant is part of a large chain the menu includes in the calorie count for each item.  Everything we ate had a reasonable calorie count and was well priced.  They are open late seven days a week so you can stop by for a meal or a snack anytime.
