Le Pain Quotidien, the Brussels-rooted bakery-cafe with locations all over New York and Europe, is coming to Philly.
It's the name behind a zoning notice posted at 1423-25 Walnut St., right off the northeast corner of 15th and Walnut and catercorner from Butcher & Singer.
Developer Pearl Properties says this will be the flagship of a new Philly presence.
Hearing will be Sept. 21.

Please please please let this be true!!!!! Amazing bakery!!— charlesuk
"Hearing will be Sept. 21". - It's disgusting that anyone - particularly a "name" business - has to go through the demeaning ritual of having to plead their case before an unelected, unofficial jury of self-interested "neighbors" who call themselves The Center City Residents Assn. One more Philadelphia "Gotcha!"...- Wow, another step for Philly as it enters the 21st century. First and Apple store and now Le Pain Quotidien! Will it take years to open, as did the Apple store? I hope not. Manhattan has had ten stores for a few years now.— Trevi
When? When? When??? When will it open? I love this place and it's just a block over from my office. I CAN'T WAIT!!!
