Yeah that's what I was thinking. Hopefully the guys get their pay

The service and food in that place were both woefully overrated. I'm not surprised its gone, but I was baffled by those crying about its closure.

This company have probably destroyed their own business or ant future attempts to start up again. No one likes to hear these stories but especially not when a seemingly persecuted business who is a victim of greedy landlords (pr gold) then becomes the greedy bosses who haven't paid their staff in months.

Talk about hero to zero in nanoseconds.

Maybe the developer stole the money?

It's the owner who is French. Only some of the staff are.

I wouldn't know. Us Welsh treat our females with a bit of respect.

They had lovely cakes but they catered my sons christening and the business side of things seemed lacking which in hindsight is unsurprising.

Paris Bakery Staff Sit in after refusal to pay wages? Catchy alright. Just rolls off the tongue...

Number two next to a Brewery on the list of best places to have a sit in.

The staff are only looking for a fair slice of the cake.

Staff member Madeline Danish remarked that they were extremely croissant at the situation and will not just roll over and be made bun of. "The situation is inseine" she cried," we have checked to see if they left bank drafts for us, but no - atellier, there will be trouble".

I got a pain (au chocolat) after reading that

Let's put these jokes to bread now

Food in there is great, service is woeful
Hope the staff get their wages all the same

Wishiwasa Littlebitaller · 24-05-2014 12:25PM

Ah, the usual jokes being made as ever, despite people losing their jobs.

Why anyone would think it's funny when a business is eclaired bankrupt, I don't know.

YFlyer · 24-05-2014 12:48PM

100s and 1000s have been found and are been sprinkled around.

Loyal staff who have wrongly assessed the moral integrity of management. All too common, alas.

Well said - Cuisine de France make the most bland, tasteless bread I've ever eaten...even their so-called "pastries" are rotten little lumps of hydrogenated fat. Foul produce altogether.

Cusine de France badly need some proper competition.

Having worked retail for a company that sells itself on being a "small irish owned business". I quickly realised it was actually part of a multi-million euro empire and was far from the small image it was portraying. It paid all the staff ****ly and treated everyone like crap.

Most business pay play the whole "small irish firm" treat their employees like **** and pay them ****tly. You Lidl or Aldi pays and treats their staff better than your small local business.
