Both had the delicate delicious crunch and the fillings were more fruit than sickeningly sweet. The entire shop is a treat to the eyes. The macaroons are in the very front, but if you venture to the back you can see some of their other creations. They are all beautiful. When i'm back in Lyon, this will be one of my stops to take care of a sweet craving.

My…read morefamily is passionate about these delicate (but difficult) pastries and we're always eager to try them. I brought home an assortment of 16. Overall, they were quite good, though some uneveness as to texture of the cookies: some were perfect in crumb and moistness, but others were either a tad dry or a bit gummy. Perfection in macarons is hard to achieve, but Bouillet came pretty close! (though I think Pignols nearby, does nail it!)

They have many tasty and beautiful looking pastries here and nice service too. I must admit, of the…read more5 macaroons I tried here, I have had better, but, their caramel one was outstanding. They have some other interesting flavor combinations I would try next time including apricot and thyme. Relative to how highly priced macaroons are in the US, the pricing here was very fair. I would definitely return.

They use only use regional whole milk, and their fruit ingredients represent 60-70% of those sorbet and ice cream flavors; plus, everything is organic. I ordered the strawberry sorbet and caramel gelato. They were so good that if I were to return to Lyon, I'd be torn if I want to reorder the same flavors or try new ones. They also have an adjoining small cafe area that serves up crepes and coffee. Credit cards are accepted.

You see the name in many shops around town and I assume it's an old Lyon business. The pastries here look absolutely amazing but unfortunately fail to deliver on taste. I tried the Mille Feuille and whilst it looked amazing the pastry was not so flaky and the filing lacked the hard hitting vanilla flavour. The Mille feuille is the one pastry that is my benchmark for French pattiseries and unfortunately this place did not deliver. The milk chocolate eclair was similarly great looking but lacked flavour. All in all an ok place for coffee or buying some dessert / pastries :-)
