Le Pointu

Arrived for brunch around 1pm on a Sunday without a reservation and we were warmly welcomed and offered a window seat.l, which was fine. Our order was taken promptly. We ordered 2 plates of French toast and bacon, a side of pancakes, a flat white, a fresh oranges, and a Mimosa. The food arrived quickly and looked great. The coffee was good, the orange freshly squeezed and sweet and the Mimosa nicely strong with alcohol. Unfortunately the food was pretty disappointing. The french toast was bland and didnt really taste of anything. The pancakes were better but nothing to write home about. All in all a fairly average experience we won't be rushing back to repeat. Prices are average for Switzerland. Go somewhere else.

If you are reading these because you are looking for a place to eat lunch on Sunday and nothing was open, like we did, here is open and brunxh is offered until 15. Very slow service, but our waiter was so friendly. We had the french toast with matcha and a cappuccino, almost 50 francs, service included.

Very nice place to eat or have a drink. Beside the road but manageable. Small but tasty selection. Very busy !

Le Pointu is a must at Lausanne. The kitchen opens at 10, and most seats are reserved—so don’t forget to book yours. I liked the Eggs Benedict, and the Matcha Latte was also 👍🏼

Trendy brunch spot, this restaurant is wonderfully located. Unfortunately, it means there's a lot of coming and going and, in winter, that means an unpleasant cold gust of street wind: maybe invest in a curtain. The staff was moderately interested in serving our table and mildly polite. The food is excellent but took a long time to arrive and was expensive. Not sure I'll go again.

Really good food and friendly staff. Only real downside is the noise - it was too loud for me to really feel comfortable. However, still worth to go.

The Café has a great Location and offers really good coffe! Also the food tasted really great. Unfortunately the Service was really slow and we had to wait quite a while to receive our coffe.

Great drinks and food. Servers were super nice and the atmosphere was very hip. Their menu is a wide variety of cuisines, we had dumplings, an Ecuadorian yuca dish and Lentil salad.

We were a group of 3 that came in around 11AM. The cafe was already pretty full by this time so it might be a good idea to make a reservation beforehand, especially for bigger groups. The place is trendy and laid back. There weren't a lot of menu items but enough for a small cafe. We came in on a Monday so no brunch options but we did get some pancakes and drinks. Pancakes were light, fluffy, and not too heavy or sweet. They looked pretty small but did fill us up quickly! I am curious to try their other brunch menus so maybe I will revisit if I'm in Lausanne again.

Lovely little spot with gluten free and vegan delights. Loved every minute but it was a real uphill trek getting to this place. We took a train all the way here to Lausanne m just for the gluten free Benedict. We also had a matcha with almond milk and a hot coco with almond milk. Both were wonderful. We stayed for a couple hours, felt well taken care of and not rushed even though it's a busy place. Great service and worth the reup

On a recent Sunday my sister and I took a day trip from Geneva to Lausanne, and after some walking around we decided to get a late brunch. Turns out not many places are open for brunch on Sundays in Lausanne, but Le Pointu happened to be right in front of us, and the menu looked great (my sister particularly liked the gluten-free bread option), so we went in and were seated immediately at two high chairs along the window (bonus: there are outlets). We found it was very nice space to eat, talk, and have a full view of everything going on in and outside of the restaurant. Perhaps more importantly, though, the food was quite delicious. We ordered a couple iced coffees, the avocado toast, and the eggs benedict with salmon. And we really enjoyed it all. I'd add that the restaurant was full and we spent about 90 minutes there, but we also noticed a few groups staying longer, with one breaking out a laptop, so I think it's a nice place to post up. I'd definitely go back if I am back in Lausanne.

We went to Le Pointu today for brunch. I ate the Egg in a hole and the Blueberry pancakes. I strongly recommend both. Service is a bit slow, but definitely worth going!

A nice, trendy bar in the middle of Lausanne city center, just next to the Place Riponne. Nice environment, reasonable prices for the drinks for the locations and cozy interior. Would definitely recommend for drinks!

The aperitifs are delicious, drinks are good, staff is friendly and helpful, and the all-over ambience is good. The déco and music definitely go with the vibe of the bar. A must-visit!
