TL;DR
Paris Baguette café is opening its first location in the Cleveland area, led by franchisee Parth Patel, with a grand opening event on July 18. The Avon, Ohio location is the 6th Paris Baguette café in the state of Ohio.
On July 18th, Grand Opening events will begin with $20 gift cards to the first 100 customers.
The Avon development is being led by franchisee Parth Patel. At just 28 years old, Patel is making his entrepreneurial mark by opening the first Paris Baguette café in the Cleveland area, located in Avon, Ohio. Raised in a family of successful franchisees who grew a single Dunkin’ Donuts into a thriving business, Patel learned the value of hard work, community, and customer service from an early age. Now, he's channeling that experience into building something of his own with Paris Baguette — a brand he believes brings a unique, upscale neighborhood bakery-café experience to the local market.
“Bringing Paris Baguette to Avon isn’t just about great food and coffee — it’s about creating a space where people feel welcomed, inspired, and part of something special. This is just the beginning,” said Patel.
The Avon café opening is a milestone for the brand, and the 6th in the state of Ohio.
“We’re on a mission to re-establish the neighborhood bakery café and we’re excited to see Parth bring this to life in his local trade area,” said Darren Tipton, Chief Executive Officer of Paris Baguette. “In our cafes we like to say, ‘Happy to see you. Happier to serve you.’ And we know Parth will wholeheartedly embrace this approach in his neighborhood.”
