A neighbourhood bakery with a namesake loaf
La Flûte De Meaux is an independent bakery and pastry shop on Rue de Meaux in Ourcq, a short walk from the Ourcq station. What you notice first is the window: trays of pastries and viennoiseries laid out beside savoury items, with breads stacked behind the counter.
The namesake Flute de Meaux bread is the thing to buy first, a loaf that keeps well for days at home. Traditional baguettes come out golden and crisp, and the chausson aux pommes has flaky dough with an apple filling that stays tart rather than sweet. Cream puffs are the other order worth planning around, and they hold up in quantity for a party or a wedding table.
Beyond the sweet side, the shop stocks sandwiches and tartines for lunch, plus salads and a changing range of pastries. The welcome is warm and the staff are patient with visitors who do not speak much French, which makes pointing at the counter easy. The room is small and the queue moves quickly at lunchtime.
Prices stay low: most single items fall within €1–10, and the quality holds up against what you pay. Cards, cash and contactless are all accepted.

The pick list
What to bring home
Cream puffs
Cream puffs are the pick for a celebration: more than a hundred were ordered for one wedding.
Sandwiches
The set menu comes with a sandwich, a fruit salad and a chocolate cake.
Chausson aux pommes
The chausson aux pommes has flaky dough and a filling with real acidity, not too sweet.
Viennoiseries
The viennoiseries sit alongside the pastries and sandwiches.
Strawberry cake
The strawberry cake, sometimes with orange blossom, is the one to get first.
Who is this for
This suits a curious browser who wants to see what a neighbourhood bakery counter looks like, with a namesake loaf and cream puffs to take away. It also works for a picnic planner putting together lunch from sandwiches, tartines and a pastry or two.
If you need a celebration cake rather than everyday bread and pastries, Maison Saulais on the same street is the better stop for birthdays and group events.
The verdict
It still suits anyone after a good everyday loaf, a sandwich or cream puffs for a crowd.
