There is a reason the line is down the entry steps out the door at most hours of the day. It can even be difficult to get in line on market days (Tuesday, Friday, Sunday) when merchant stalls block a direct path to the door. This bakery-the ovens are just to your left when you are making and paying for your selections-is a cut above the ordinary. And despite how busy they are the folks behind the counter are knowledgeable and friendly. This is our daily bread go-to place in Annecy.

We were just passing by to have an afterwork drink but ended up feeling a bit hungry and were happy to see that you can easily grab a bite there. During lunch time they serve entire meal and during the evening you have a choice of tapas. Not many choice but what you have is good : we tasted a part of vegetables pie and they serve it with a little salad. Simple but very good! You feel a bit like at home in Café du Lys, very comfortable area (couch area) or simple wood table area... Hanging out with friends, boyfriend, girlfriend, whatever your age, Café du Lys is a perfect place for simple occasions! Taste their special russian beer or their mint tea (with real mint leafs ;)

Now, that being said, for breakfast, we wanted to keep it light because we would be traveling later that afternoon and didn't want to feel heavy making our way to the airport. It was also Easter Sunday, so most places were closed. Easter is a nationally recognized holiday in parts of Europe, so it's treated much like Thanksgiving or Christmas and most stores were closed. Both factors limited our options, but thankfully this coffee shop was open for business. It was located around the corner from where we were staying, so it was really convenient. They offered an array of pastries and coffee options. We ordered the croissant, fruit tart, blueberry & cream cheese muffin. We also ordered a latte complete with latte art! I think of all the pastries, the croissant was my personal favorite. It was flaky & tasted fresh (not sitting out all day). Although there are many other coffee options in the area, this one is worth trying!

I've had better coffee. The place is bright, a few locals and the ambiance relaxed. Towards the back of the café there are several doors open to other rooms, looks like storage areas; this definitely takes away from the ambiance. The path to the bathroom is like in a Victorian age motif... looks out of place. While it's not a run down spot at all, it does feel a little tossed together. It was good to check out, but not enough here to bring me back.
