Essential Guide to Annecy, the 'Venice of the Alps'
"Counted among the top boulangeries in town, this is where I’d source picnic fare before strolling over to the lake." - Lane Nieset

I didn’t realize I finished the baguette sandwich until it was gone. They might get your order wrong (pardon my lack of french), but anything you wind up getting will be a happy accident. 10/10 boulangerie!

I cycle 5 miles to get bread from this shop. A bit offside in respect of Annecy town centre but worth the diversion. Huge choice of breads, good selection of cakes & tarts, ready made sandwiches & to my mind, the best croissants in the area. All top quality & long opening hours.

Wow. Best savoury and sweet baked goods in France! Affordable prices. Everything was delicious, high quality and very fresh. Recommend the baguette, cheese twist, Napoleon, Paris Brest. The staff who served me didn’t speak English

Delicious croissants and pan au chocolates. Nice staff. They sliced our boule of bread for us to make sandwiches for a picnic. The desserts looked amazing but we didn’t try any. We were too late in the day to try the baguettes so maybe next time!

We spent the month of January traveling throughout France. Their baguettes were the best! I still think about their five grain baguette. The desserts d’or and lunch offerings were also top notch.

Fantastic sandwiches, baguettes and superb pain au chocolat. Loved the quiche Lorraine also. Good value.

While vacationing I came across this patisserie and loved everything we ate from croissants in the morning to the sandwiches in the afternoon. Wish I could take some back home.

This place was amazing! Anyone coming to Annecy should stop here- the baguette is fluffy and flavorful, the quiche was perfect, and the chocolate caramel Tarte and lemon Tarte were to die for. The service was superb and we came here every morning. I'd come back to Annecy just for this bakery alone.

Delicious quiche. Delightful small bakery with variety. If paying by cash, it goes into a machine and provides change. Nice service.

First impressions are lasting and walking in, the first thing that caught my eye was the beautiful wall of baguettes followed by rows and rows of delicate pastries. I wanted everything but went with my usual croissant aux amandes and added another pastry I can't recall at the moment for later but both were delicious. They're open pretty late (19:30) and perfect location if staying in one of the neighboring hotels.

Once you get in the bakery, you can feel that it is not
just a normal bakery in town. Smell so good, the cakes looks so beautiful. I would recommend to food lovers.
