Patisserie Margo

This little neighborhood gem deserves nothing but high praise, in my opinion. Friends and family from miles away have requested Margo’s culinary treats for special events. I carried them many miles! I’ve learned it’s best to get there earlier in the day for best selections. Staff is wonderful, food is always delicious and all is freshly baked every day they are open. I enjoy some of the seasonal specials…especially during peach season, soups are delicious, and quiche is a family favorite! Throughout the pandemic, these treats were safely available to us. I am so appreciative.

This was our first visit, we had the beignets, croissants, cinnamon rolls, and a few macarons. The beignets, croissants, and cinnamon rolls were incredible! Absolutely loved them! However, the macarons lacked flavor and I don't think were dried long enough as they were incredibly soft. I will say the softness could have resulted from the bag they were put in and the higher humidity but the flavor still just wasn't there which is a bummer because everything else we had was amazing.

In lieu of being able to travel to Paris, we stopped in at Margos on our way out of town to pick up a few sweets for my husbear’s birthday. The staff was incredibly kind, friendly, and patient as we made our selections. The macaroons are absolutely delicious! Baked to perfection, fluffy, and and packed with delicious flavors. If your palette allows, try the dark chocolate passion fruit! It is rich and tangy. Like a sweet afternoon dance disco in your mouth. We also had the salted caramel & pistachio. All fantastic! We still have a cherry tart, citrus tart, and chocolate dream dome to eat but couldn’t wait to share our experience about the macaroons. Next time we are in the twin cities, we’ll definitely be back at Margos.
