One of the best cake shops in Lausanne. They have different breads, sandwiches and an interesting…read morerange of pastries. Every time the quality of their products was very good. Our favourites are the small strawberry tarts, the nut cakes and the brewed pears tart (raisinée in French). The slices of bread with a topping, for instance salmon or cheese (tête de moine in French), are yum too. There is another shop from Laurent Buet in the area which has a tearoom as well. Service is always very friendly and the prices are averaged.

Lovely bakery right across the street from Chateau de Ouchy. We came here for breakfast and ordered…read morea warm panini with tomato and mozzarella. It was seasoned with herbs and a bit of oil and was delicious. The bakery has many different types of other sandwiches to choose from (salmon, ham, cheese, etc), along with plenty of delicious looking sweets. There is also an area with indoor seating to sit down and enjoy the food, which was nice.

I'm not exaggerating when I say this is my top 5 breakfasts of all time. So random, but just…read moreamazing. We got this sort of bread, jam, 2 eggs and espresso deal, and we haven't stopped talking about it in a month. So fresh, so delicious. Sat outside in the sun and just had a great experience. Would LOVE to know where they got their trays because I would use one every morning. If you're in the area, looking for something of the beaten path that will make you think about bread for a month, go here.

One reviewer said this place was stuck in the past and needed updating....uh that is what some of…read moreus like to call "charm". Located a few feet from the train station in Lausanne, Le Romantica is a clean old school pastry shop loaded with goodies. Sitting outside and people watching is great. The prices are reasonable..10.50 chf for a coffee, one savory croissant and one sweet pastry. The employees speak enough English to get by. A suggestion...maybe you as a visitor learn a little of the local language. The only reason for 4 instead of 5 stars is they had no WiFi.

If you need an excuse to indulge then there is no need to look any further. This place is tasty,…read moreyummy and fabulous! Desserts, chocolates and sandwiches galore. I had a chicken curry croissant a few days ago and want to walk back for more. I justify the urge by walking to the bakery. If you walk, then you will burn calories. When you burn calories, you must replenish with more goodies! Today I had some fromage and a strawberry tart. I plan on cleaning them out when I depart for the states later on this week. The people are very friendly and patient for the non-speaking French patrons who come to visit! Très bon!

Maybe bot the cheapest option, but definitely worth a visite!

It's the kind of shop where I actually would never buy anything from it, but it's just very pleasing for the eyes because it looks so elegant! They have a big golden Buddha statue inside. They sell very beautiful items for home decoration like glassware, tea cups and pots, candles, flower vases and so on. You will find neckerchiefs, scarves and bags too. The shop is located at Rue de Bourg which is the branch of some luxury shops like Hermes and Louis Vuitton. Of course that means the prices of Cardas items are very expensive.
