Very unique experience, you get served coffee by French Nuns!
I enjoyed the stop, loved the Austrian cookie I got, enjoyed the Berry Tart, the coffee was OK, and the decorations were amazing.
It seemed that all baked items are baked somewhere else, I thought the tart filling was fresh, but the crust seemed a bit stale! Cookie tasted delicious, but they are not freshly baked! The Nuns were very friendly!
Would go again for sure just for the unique experience!
You should also go to experience it, not for the freshly baked items, but for the ambiance and experience!
Oh, and they charge a percentage for credit card payments, very old school!!!

Fruit Tart
Charming bakery with excellent organic baked goods, very good coffee and organic teas. Huge selection for such a small spot, including savory pastries and quiche, candies, and packaged cookies. I especially recommend the coffee eclairs. Can't wait to return and try more French specialties!

Apple Tart
St Roger Abbey has the best French pastries in all of the North Shore. Everything is organic and tastes amazing. Highly recommend their coffee, cakes, and tarts. The sisters are also genuinely nice and service is great.

French Pastry
This is an amazing, magical place. Not only is it the best French food outside of France, but it is made and served by Nuns. I had the broccoli quiche and my friend had the potato leek soup, which were both outstanding!
I loved stumbling on the Abbey. The environment is warm and welcoming and the fruit tartlets are the best I’ve had in a long time. Highly recommend to anyone in the area.
