This is a relatively new bakery, so check them out if you live in the area.
About the name: The points made by other reviewers are correct, but I don't care that much, except that there is a subtitle on their sign explicitly saying they are French. Even so, this is just a review of the food.
Nationality of staff: Hispanic. Does it matter to me? No. I don't speak French either. So ... not too much. There is a TV. Big -. But it is in Spanish, so it doesn't bother me if I wanted to work here. Big plus. At the end of the day this is a bakery, not a restaurant, and it doesn't pretend to be a restaurant even if the title is misleading in other ways, so I don't think it is too appropriate to score based on ambiance, something that matters for eat-in restaurants.
Products: I can only speak properly about the cookies. (If I'm going to take in calories, they may was well be good-tasting calories. So I tend to eat a lot of cookies. It is very important for me to know where I can get them. A stomach without a cookie in it is an unhappy stomach.) Currently, this place is almost my favorite. They have six types cookies: white, normal, and double chocolate; sprinkles; peanut butter; and oatmeal raisin. The prices are extremely reasonable, and they are definitely using better ingredients than safeway and giant. I think these (other) places use hydrogenated vegetable oil, rat poison, who knows what else. I think that La Baguette is using a good-quality vegetable oil, but I didn't ask. If they are using real butter, let me know and I will change their score to a 5. (I am guessing not based on a subtle non-buttery aroma.) They have day old half-price cookies @ $2.00/6= 33 cents per cookies. As everyone knows, that's the heavenly number, and a strong sign you need to buy cookies now. Texture and mouth feel are to perfect IMO.
Latino products: On the left. No idea. I didn't try them. It doesn't bother me that they are there. If you are allergic to Hispanic food, I'd avoid the bakery. I'm not. ***IMO the owner should remove all of these products due to the reviewers (besides me) whining about these.***
Other products: They have cool items like mocha/coffee cakes. If it were just another Latino bakery, as the other reviewers are arguing, I doubt these products would be here. Please comment if I'm wrong and I will consider adjusting my ranking.
SCORE IF PARTIAL STARS WERE ALLOWED: 4.5/5.
Not French, serves Hispanic desserts and bread (more Italian bread than French). Peanut butter cookies tasted like soap, very dry. Hoping I hit them on an off day.
Nothing French here, just as someone already mentioned it is mostly Spanish-named baked goods. Also did not look very fresh - I left without buying anything.

The sign said French bakery, but it seemed most of the pastries inside Add Spanish names. We bought a bagguete loaf which was more like Italian bread.

Don’t get carried away by their French name. Their baked good are so dry and tasteless.
