Mitron Bakery

This bakery, run by a renowned local Michelin 3-star chef, has earned a reputation for excellence. Their lemon tart is nothing short of extraordinary and a favorite among locals. Conveniently located near the bustling shopping district, the bakery also operates a smaller booth inside the waterfront market. While the staff could be a bit friendlier, I only stop by for takeout—and for the food alone, it’s absolutely worth it. Definitely a must-try when in Menton.

came here after hearing about mitron’s lemon tarts and really loved it! tart was big and crust & filling were both good. we also had black coffee here and owner was very thoughtful when serving us :)

We ordered their lemon tart and it was incredible!!!!! It was very huge so I would recommend it to be shared between 2 people if possible. The taste of lemon is strong but not overpowering I absolutely loved it. The crust goes very well with the lemon cream. So if you are in Menton, don't forget to drop by and enjoy their lemon tart!!

Such a beautiful bakery. It was recommended to us by a few people and it was definitely worth it. Everyone goes there for the lemon tart, and yes, it is amazing. However, everything else is so tasteful as well!

Very cute bakery! Ordered the lemon tart and fougasse mentonnaise. The fougasse was a bit dry, but the lemon tart was tasty! Recommend getting a slice of lemon tart with espresso and sitting outside the bakery to enjoy them.

The lemon tart was spectacular, the pan au chocolates were average, same for the orange cake which was too sweet for me. Great tender brownie. In my opinion, the pastries are overpriced for no reason.

We have tried lemon tart in Nice on Sunday market and we kept thinking about it ever since. This tart is a must! I would even say it was the best one I had ever.

Excellent food, especially the lemon based goods, the croissants and the fougasse. We had some great coffee there, they also offer vegan milk alternatives. The bakery is small and cozy with two tables on the outside, so you can enjoy your meal in the cute neighborhood. All the ingredients are of extremely high quality, nonetheless are the products reasonably priced. We went there almost every day during our stay and already miss the bakery, its nice staff and delicious food.

We stayed at the Prince de Galles Hotel nearby and as the breakfast was a bit expensive at the hotel so we preferred to get something to eat as a breakfast and we got some bakery stuff from Au Baiser du Mitron. Everything was really good.
