Description

Owners Duc and Noelle Liao have their own little piece of Paris at this inconspicuous strip mall patisserie/café, where the vibe is hip and low-key. Bring a friend (or grab a magazine), sip some fragrant Mariage Frères tea, and tuck into luscious traditional pastries, from croissants and butter cookies to fabulous confections. It would be tempting to just fill up on sweets, but the menu includes fabulous quiches and rustic sandwiches, too. Très délicieux!

Scratch is a bright and airy French cafe -- in a strip mall. We promise you'll forget your proximity to Subway as soon as you're in the door.

Even if you're not a... More »

Ooh-la-la, we can't tell you how delighted we were when we discovered this honest-to-goodness French patisserie. Open since January, Scratch Pastries is a labor of love run by two Parisian transplants, Duc and Noelle Liao, who left behind glamorous careers (fashion photographer and model, respectively) in the City of Light to raise their family here. And we're so glad they did. Now we can hang out in their stylish, low-key cafe, sip Mariages Frères tea, and nibble on buttery, freshly... More »

Guess Where I'm Eating and Win A Prize

By Shannon Armour | Fri, April 13, 2012

Sometimes a girl needs a steak sandwich and a big bowl of fries to make the day amazing. My lunch companion and I hit one of Phoenix's slightly older hot spots for a late afternoon beer lunch. I ven... More »
Scratch Pastries offers French bliss in the form of luscious desserts and savory sandwiches

By Michele Laudig | Thu, March 13, 2008

I'd be perfectly content if you plunked me down on a wicker chair at a tiny round table, put some Édith Piaf on the stereo, and called me Amélie. The quintessential French cafe has timeless appeal. But recently, at Scratch Pastries — a two-month-... More »

They're all almost too pretty to eat. That's right, we said almost.
