The Bakery Lorraine at the Pearl is one of my places to spend a slow morning in San Antonio. Even…read morebefore you walk inside, the atmosphere is part of the experience. The Pearl's beautiful mix of historic architecture and modern design creates the perfect backdrop, and there's no better spot to grab a table, sip a coffee, and enjoy some of the best people-watching in the city. The food never disappoints. The Quiche Lorraine is consistently outstanding! Rich, creamy, perfectly seasoned, with a buttery, flaky crust that somehow manages to be both delicate and substantial. And then there are the macarons. Bakery Lorraine has one of the best selections around, with flavors that range from timeless classics to fun seasonal creations. Each one has that perfect crisp shell with a soft, chewy center, and every flavor tastes intentional rather than overly sweet.

Bakery Lorraine was highly recommended when I visited San Antonio, and it definitely lived up to…read morethe hype in terms of ambiance, both the interior and exterior. All of the bakery items looked so tempting, but I ended up trying three macarons. They were very good. The filling was more of a light cream, which I actually enjoyed more than a typical jammy filling. The Earl Grey flavor was my favorite! I also had their matcha latte, which was pretty much a standard matcha with agave. The only downside is that food items are a bit on the pricey side, and they're definitely best eaten fresh because the croissant can get hard. Still, a lovely spot to check out if you're in the area!

This is my favorite coffee shop on this side of town.

Larder is located inside Hotel Emma in San Antonio, TX…read more It is not exclusive to guests of the hotel. There is easy access almost directly to the counter on the south side. Larder is an "in-house gourmet market and café." My silly girls were craving bagels for breakfast before our zoo visit on 5.25.2025. We each had a bagel plus we shared a raspberry iced donut and a blueberry cookie with macadamia nuts. One girl had a hot chocolate and the other had a very unflavorful and lukewarm cappuccino. I'd probably pass on this place again, but it was good for a relatively fast small breakfast. RATING BREAKDOWN Food: 4 | Service: 4 | Ambiance: 3 | Price: 4

A classmate…read morerecommended Pashina, and before long, the whole class wanted to check it out--and we're so glad we did. We had a wonderful time chatting and enjoying some of the cakes. I believe we tried the Napoleon, Lemon Raspberry, and Double Brownie with Cherry. My favorite was the Napoleon cake: flaky, creamy, layered, and not overly sweet. It even reminded me a bit of baklava. I'd highly recommend the Napoleon cake for a birthday or any special celebration! Parking: There's parking in front of the bakery, along the side by the street, and in the lot behind the building, so finding a spot was easy. Seating: The bakery is small and quaint, which adds to its charm, but seating is limited. There's a small table with a few chairs and a cozy little nook by the window--perfect for enjoying your treats and catching up with friends. Overall, Pashina was a delightful experience, and I'm so happy I got to try something new. I'll definitely be back to sample more of their pastries and cakes! Thank you for having us!

Ohh La Boulangerie, what can I say but delicious. A cute spot on Broadway in downtown San Antonio…read more Sylvie the owner is originally from Western France and moved close to Paris then came to San Antonio. Their baking ingredients are sourced from France and the recipes are from her and her husband. And they're a local restaurant which I love supporting! We had the Petit Dejuener Deluxe breakfast which includes one pastry (either a croissant, chocolate croissant or bread pudding), a baguette (with either butter, homemade jam or honey), organic fresh eggs made to order or quiche slice, fresh squeezed orange juice and a yogurt with granola and fresh fruit and a black coffee or tea. It's a great option for those unable to decide on what to eat for breakfast. They have sandwiches, individual baked goods, à la carte items and hot and cold drink options as well. Coffee is strong n tasty Quiche is not dry at all Baguette and croissant are fresh baked Homemade jam Fresh squeezed OJ! Makes me happy!

If Cookie Monster lived in San Antonio, he would order all of his cookies from That Cookie Tho…read more I first tried That Cookie Tho at a farmers market, and it was life changing! Their cookies are so creative and I can assure you you've never had a more delicious cookie in your life. By far my favorite cookie is their Classy B; a double chocolate chip cookie with hazelnuts and nutella, topped with a whole Ferrero Rocher! My second favorite is their Cream Dream; signature base cookie with pieces of oreo and white chocolate. They don't have a brick and mortar but you can put an order via their website or over the phone. I believe they also do custom order, which are perfect birthday parties or as a gift.

I had to get a refund on the pastry because the consistency felt as if it had been left out for a while and its taste wasn't pleasant at all. Service: The guy who was at the register was very friendly. He answered all my questions regarding the different coffees and patient through it all. Even when I went to return the pastry he was very kind about it. Ambiance: It's a very cozy little place. I think the best time to visit this coffee shop is probably during the early fall/early spring . That way you can take advantage of the outdoor patio. The parking is limited and a little rocky. Inside is very small. Light Music playing in the background. I didn't get a chance to take pics inside.
