The pastries were crispy on the outside, airy and fluffy on the inside, and not too sweet! A must-try when visiting Lille!

When we got near we realised it was cake, this makes me happy. We bought a selection of 'merveilleux' which are like little meringues delicately filled. The service was exceptional with the staff working efficiently and in such a friendly manner to serve people quickly. The merveilleux weren't overly sweet which is amazing considering they were like mini meringues! They were beautiful with amazing flavour and I wish I had bought more to bring home, no matter how bashed they would have ended up. Exquisitive and a must visit if you are in the area of the Wazemmes Market.

I came here for lunch with a group of friends and am so happy I did! This was a perfect place to…read morestop while we were on our way to La Grand'Place. The boulangerie served what you would expect--variety of sandwiches, toasts, pasta dishes, quiche, and plenty of pastry options. They had a wonderful selection and I knew it was going to be great the second we walked in. Ordering is super simple and the service was good. They women working there did speak some English and we were able to communicate our order to them. The inside is very clean and I really appreciated the aesthetic of the eatery. They offer several floors to eat on too. I ended up ordering a salmon-avocado toast. I knew immediately that I wanted to order it when I saw it in the display case. The toast included smoked salmon on one side, a small salad with avocado slices in the center, and a jammy hard boiled egg on the other side. This all was atop of thick piece of rustic French bread. The bread also had some sort of sun-dried tomato spread on it, which was fantastic. I really loved the presentation of the toast, almost felt guilty cutting into it! It was so fresh and full of so much flavor. The avocado was extremely smooth, the salmon perfectly fatty, and the egg cooked just right. The sun-dried tomato spread tied the whole thing together. And of course the bread was amazing as well. Overall, I really enjoyed my meal here. I left full and very satisfied with the experience. My salmon-avocado toast was perfect in every which way. Every component of it was very fresh too. If you need a quick bite and are in the area, this is a great place to stop!

Tasty! The kids enjoyed the paninis and the service was great (english). Was a perfect late lunch.read more

These are truly some the the best macarons I have ever had including those from patisseries in Paris and London. There are a range of beautiful subtle flavours baked into these delights from rose and truffle to pistachio and orange. The macarons themselves are good for five days so perfect for a weeks supply. As they came to approx 1.50 Euro each it may even be worth coming from London purely for them! They also have a range of sweet and wonderfully elaborate cakes in various sizes. We had the beautifully soft and chocolaty 'Pop Art' described on their site as:- 'Caribbean chocolate mousse with Tonka bean Salted butter caramel Burnt caramel cream Biscuit Carambar' The smallest one is less than 5 Euro and enough for two...I can see why they also have one called 'Addict' and another called 'Apocalypse'. They also sell bread and other baked pastries though we did not try these. This was genuinely one of the highlights of my trip to the city and one of the reasons its on my list for another diabetes risking Eurostar treat.
