Paris Baguette Expands Its Horizons in Crofton, MD
On November 13, Paris Baguette, the beloved bakery café chain, unveiled its latest establishment in Crofton, Maryland, at 1665-A Crofton Center.

With a sprawling network of over 4,000 locations globally, and more than 300 operating in North America, Paris Baguette is on a mission to enrich neighborhoods with its unique blend of artisan pastries, breads, handcrafted beverages, and a welcoming atmosphere.

Sung Park shared his excitement about the new café, saying, "We have been big fans of Paris Baguette for years, and after seeing how much our local community loves their artisan pastries and cakes, we knew bringing this concept to Maryland was the right step."
