Pastries Bakery

Review Summary

Reviews of L'Amour du pain describe high quality, fresh products served with professionalism and a welcoming atmosphere, with praise for the wide range of breads, croissants, pastries, and drinks, though some note that peak hours can be busy and staff have little time to explain offerings. There are occasional issues such as ham only sandwiches, an outdated menu, and incomplete orders, but many find the bakery charming with a rustic decor and friendly staff. The patisserie is repeatedly highlighted as delicious, and the selection of treats is appreciated, even as some reviews mention higher prices. Takeout during busy times is discouraged by some to avoid mixups, and a few criticisms concern frozen pastries that were burnt or oily inside or otherwise not well cooked after transport; these disappointments are weighed against long journeys or special occasions. Overall L'Amour du pain is seen as a delightful place with excellent items and room for improvement in consistency.View restaurant profile
