Guest sentiment
A snapshot of what local diners frequently mention about this location.
"The best bakery around! The savory and sweet treats are all delicious, and the staff are kind and friendly."
"Gluten free options and definitely, the BEST pie & cookie I ever tried! The chocolate mousse/cake was not GF, but so tasty and perfect that deserves a highlight!"
"Very cute tea room with a lot of delicious snacks and desserts. Nice ambiance and decent service. Can't wait to pass by again. It is pity though that there are no vegan and non gluten desserts, I think."
"Sweet little place for home made salt or sweet bakery and sandwiches. My only regret is that there are no longer a couple of tables where you can enjoy the atmosphere of the old part of town sipping you coffee or tea with your cake. We found a stone wall nearby serving that purpose."
"Amazing place. Beautiful, health (they even don’t add sugar in cold drinks!), authentic to the old Lausanne. Perfect breakfast/lunch spot."
"Lovely, wonderful cozy place I stumbled on (actually en route to another cafe on Google Maps with a good rating) on a day trip to Lausanne in March. The pistachio cake was divine, moist and chewy with a sticky dark chocolate icing, the tea was strong and malty. Perfect to perk up a drizzly, grey early-spring teatime. I’d definitely go back to try more of the cakes and pastries, which are created and made in-house. I"
"The cookies we had were as tasty as they looked. They have their own little bakery in the back of the shop. All is handmade. The person behind the counter was very friendly and the coffee was good. Give it a try! I don’t think you will be disappointed."
"Very cute gourmet cafe / bakery with lots of pastries and baked goods"
