Their menu highlighted Movenpick ice cream, waffles, and paninis. My husband and I each grabbed a waffle with a scoop of Movenpick (creme brulee). Usually, there is only one flavor of waffle to chose from - normal. However, this place offered a apple cinnamon waffle. The waffles are pre made and left waiting for someone to pick them. My husband's was warm, but hadn't asked for his to be reheated, and I chose the apple cinnamon which I had reheated on the grill. The reheating made all the difference. I was really enjoying mine, and while my husband liked his, it wasn't as good. The reheating made all the difference in the world. The ice cream itself was Movenpick perfection. Also, extra kudos for extremely friendly service done with a smile. Interesting note: while this place doesn't have a website, they do have some promo videos on you tube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CWLEaF1KaGA.

They're having exceptional food selection and great presentation. The place can be considered a little bit expensive but it's worth the try. The ice-creams are what Switzerland have to offer the best. Atmosphere 3/5: The place is alright. A modern type of seating, dinner area with a nice terrace for warm days in Summer. You will find even during winter some little birds inside the restaurant which is quiet entertaining. Food 5/5: Great food! It was excellent. I tried the Thai Burger Salmon (see pictures) and it was really interesting actually how they presented the food. 2 slices of pillaf rice forming the bun, "un lit" of vegetables and the salmon between it. Service 4/5: Service was good because my friend knew the GM of the restaurant. They just forgot us at the end with the check, but beside that. Service was really good. I definitely recommend this place.

Well..I would be glad to be able to leave a positive feedback for this place, but after having been…read moreignored for about 20 minutes, I find it very unlikely. My sister and I came here last summer as we wished for a good ice cream. The place was quite empty, no more than 3-4 tables with people sitting. We took a seat and waited for some waiter to come and pick our order, but...nothing. There were at least 4-5 waiters who clearly saw us coming in, having a seat and going through the ice-cream list, but no one came at our table. After 10 minutes, my sister went in to ask for someone to come at our table, they said that someone would come soon, 10 minutes more without seeing anyone. I would like to add that waiters were not particularly busy, as the place was quite empty. So, why did they ignored us?? Finally, we just left the place with waiters looking at us and doing...nothing, as before. Sorry, but i don't think I'll come back.

Yelp Review 2026 #157:…read more I had already went to Laduree in Montreux in the morning. Lausanne isn't far from Montreux but I went to Laduree Lausanne even though I already got macarons. This location is bigger and cuter than the one in Montreux. I got finger patisserie in pistachio, and chocolate caramel hazelnut, and a jar of chestnut cream. I also got a cute pink coffee cup and a tote bag because I picked up some chocolates and the paper bags were heavy they started ripping. The macaron flavors are the same for the whole country. The only difference for this location is that they can print "Lausanne" on your macaron for an extra 0.80CHF. I didn't need any more macarons though as I still have 2 unopened boxes of them from Montreux. The desserts from Laduree are always good. Service was ok.

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.

The difference here is that you pick the food you want first, you pay and then you go eat it. No waiter or waitress here. This reminds me the old Manora for the people who lived in Lausanne located in St-François but a classier version. Atmosphere 5/5: I really like the atmosphere of the restaurant. Trendy and Urban, Philippe Gignard did a great job to create a great urban stop to pick up your lunch in of those Lunch Bag for 19 CHF or 23 CHF. The architecture of the Bar is also well done as well. Great colors and music as background. Food 4/5: Food is definitely good! Fresh and healthy, the perfect mix. The first time I've been there, I had their Plat du Jour which consisted of a Sole Filet done in a "Meunière" kind of way. It was really good and I really enjoyed. It costed 18 CHF. Some of the Salad looks good as well! But you can't go out of this place without trying one of their fresh desserts. They have different kind of Mousse (Raspberry, Vanilla, Chocolate), Cream Puffs or Baba Rhum. All done fresh! Service 3/5: Despite the fact the restaurant doesn't have any waiter or waitress, I would except fast service at the cashier and people here to advise you the different choice you have for lunch. You sometimes have to wait at the Cashier before somebody can cash you out after 2 / 3pm. This is still a place I love to go for lunch. Everything here is over average. If you're in Lausanne, make sure to stop there for some desserts.
