Les pains au chocolat + pains au chocolat aux amandes sont délicieux. Les produits sont frais. L'endroit est accessible en poussette & fauteuil roulant (même si ce n'est pas évident car le lieu est très restreint, il y a une rampe d'accès)

Aux Merveilleux de Fred is pure magic. From the moment you step inside, you're greeted by the aroma of freshly baked pastries & the sight of pastry chefs crafting delicate creations behind the counter. Their signature dessert-the Merveilleux-is a cloud-like blend of meringue, whipped cream, & chocolate that melts in your mouth. It's unlike anything I've tasted before. They disappeared within seconds.

Très bel établissement offrant de merveilleuses pâtisseries de toutes sortes. Les viennoiseries sont débatablement les plus succulentes en villes. Impossible de ne pas parler de la spécialité: les merveilleux. Une pâtisserie légère de meringue qui en fait sa renommée. Le personnel est accueillant & efficace tout au long de la journée. Des qualités qui n'étonnent peu lorsqu'on rencontre le propriétaire: un passionné employant perfectionnement de la technique & patience pour enseigner à ses employés l'art du métier.
J'y retournerais tous les jours.
