Paris Baguette, an internationally known bakery and cafe that serves bread, pastries, desserts and French-style sandwiches, is opening this year at Arrowbrook Centre in Herndon.
The restaurant, which has locations across the world, including one in Centreville and at The Boro in Tysons, will take up roughly 3,859 square feet of space by the third quarter of this year, according to franchisee Farooq Siddiqui.
Siddiqui said he chose Arrowbrook — a mixed-use development that also counts Ornery Beer Company Public House and Hello2India among its upcoming tenants — because of the demographics of the area. He also likes the proximity of the location to the Innovation Center Metro Station and the opportunity to tap into the Herndon and Reston market.
“There really isn’t a place like this in the area,” Siddiqui said.
The Herndon location will include a roughly 1,000-square-foot patio. The interior also includes 12-foot-tall windows and 26-foot ceilings, and it will be modeled after the latest design of the restaurant.
Paris Baguette is already actively seeking a second location in the area.
Items on the menu include sandwiches, packaged roll cakes, salads, breads, cakes and seasonal specials.
