Pros: very cozy atmosphere
Cons: limited hours at the Wildwood location
We have only visited one La Madeleine (the Wildwood location), and we have since found that there are actually quite a few locations in the Atlanta metro area, and even more across the south and up the east coast.
The atmosphere is very cozy, and the woody interior is reminiscent of a European bistro. The restaurant is a combination bakery, cafe, and bistro. Although you can collect various treats in a cafeteria-type line, a waiter will bring some of the more involved dishes to your table. We have tried various breakfast/brunch type dishes, including parfaits and homestyle American breakfasts, but our favorites are their brunch crepes, which usually offer an amazing combination of eggs, mushrooms, creamy garlic, and herbs.
The particular location that we have visited is only open until mid-afternoon, so we have not yet tried the dinner menu, but if it is at all like the brunch menu, you will be loving the food to your European heart's content. On your way out, be sure to pick up some excellent baked goods.
