18 bucks for two pastries and two cups of tea to go. With such steep prices one would expect good service, unfortunately this place is lacking in that…

The amazing fruit crepes. I would never have put these fruits together but this dish blew my mind. I don't know where they get their grapes from but I…

I absolutely love the atmosphere in this place. It is a little pricey, but it's worth it. I ordered a glass of orange juice, and the waitress promptly…

Great pastries, BUT I finally went for an actual meal after years and years of only stopping for pastries every once in a while. Was so disappointed. Bread was burnt, quiche was meh, French Onion soup was eh… Maybe I had built it up in my head too much. The bill hurt after such a mediocre experience.
I have given Jean-Pierre’s several chances, and and only found the quality of my experience less each time. Most recently, I went in and ordered a VERY simple dish that was still botched. It was a French-Dip for god’s sake, the meat was border-line rotten, the cheese WAS rotten, the Au Jus was cold and the whole thing was bland, even being rotten! My mother in law got a salad, which was served with bleu cheese that was of course rotten, she was ill for the next three days. Having paid our bill, we decided to get pastries before we left. Unfortunately, we didn’t open them until we had already left the store. My wife and I went to split a raspberry tart, I cut one in half to find that the berry was moldy. Not just a little bit, but filled with mold. We cut the second in half to check it out, and it too was molded. An additional two-cents from a a local: Everyone that I know who has ever worked for J.P has reported a blatantly sexist work environment wherein women are far less likely to receive raises/promotions, and everyone is treated essentially like trash.While you’re in Durango, check out the historical painting on the side of the building that J.P. totally defaced. Review Summary: Very bad, wouldn’t recommend to anyone, ever.
Very Expensive. Looked like a good place to eat for breakfast. I have never paid so much for a breakfast that was nothing to write home about. Forgot what I had but the crossants were good. Bought some pastries on the way out and WOW! I was shocked at the cost. The should put prices on their pastries so you know how much you are spending.
Excellent. One does not typically think French in Durango, but Jean Pierre was a real surprise. We have dined at most if not all of the top restaurants in Durango and I would rate this one right up with all the rest. If they have a shortcoming it is the college age wait staff which is typical of most restaurants in Durango with Fort Lewis College being just up the hill. We forgot to make a Friday night reservations at one of our favorites and due to the hour wait decided to give Jean Pierre a try. The dcor is typical of a quaint French bakery and tastefully done. The soft live guitar music made for a very romantic dining experience untypical of the normal Durango dinner experience. I suggest you first order a bottle of wine which entitles you to a lovely generous plate of excellent cheeses, fruit and nuts. We could have called it an evening at that point but decided to stuff ourselves which we did not have any trouble doing. The Cesar Salad was large and excellent and the lobster/crab bisque wonderful. We then shared a generous portion of Bouillabaisse (traditional French soup made with fish, clams, shrimp). I would rate it as one of the best I have ever tasted. I am sure the deserts were excellent, but we were just too stuffed to even try. Perhaps on our next trip as we will certainly return.
Great service, excellent food. Had a late lunch here last week. Best ham quiche I have had in years, crust was flaky and the filling moist and well seasoned. Perfectly cooked. The best part of the experience was the friendly, knowledgeable and attentive service from James, our waiter. He is a real asset to the cafe.
Good food but service????. Very good soups and salads. Enjoyed a nice meal dispite a waitress who paid us little attention.
Bueno. Had breakfast with the boyfriend here, we were pretty happy. Espresso was good, I had the French country breakfast, which had more stuff with it than the menu stated, would have been nice to know. The croissant was delicious, the pile of fruit was generous, eggs tasted fresh, potatoes were good. My boyfriend had the stuffed croissant and loved it, devoured the whole thing before I finished my plain one! The atmosphere was lovely, the waitress and buss boy were attentive and polite. I didn’t think it was too expensive, my meal at Gazpachos was way more pricey and not anywhere near as good or filling. –Oh and I peeked in the kitchen, very clean and bright and the cooks looked happy. Always a good sign.
