Overall, OFauria is viewed as a high end French patisserie with beautifully crafted pastries, impressive trompe l'oeil desserts, and strong coffee and croissants that many describe as top notch. The atmosphere and presentation are frequently noted as elegant and visually stunning, making it a popular spot for a refined dessert experience. Many reviews praise the quality and freshness of the pastries and the skillful execution that elevates traditional French baking. At the same time, price is a common point of discussion with several readers calling it expensive and not always offering value for money. Some experiences mention slower or uneven service and occasional gaps in hospitality, especially during busy times, and a few guests raise concerns about cleanliness in the dining area. A minority report disappointments with specific items or day-to-day consistency, but the consensus leans toward admiring the artistry and the craft while recognizing room for improvement in service and upkeep.
J'ai été extrêmement déçus du « fameux gâteau de st-Valentin », que se soit au niveau du goût & de la présentation. J'ai écris un courriel & n'ai jamais eu de retour de réponse. C'est bien dommage.

De délicieuses pâtisseries ! La tarte aux fruits est toujours un succès lors de nos événements. & petit coup de coeur aussi pour le coin salé, tout est absolument délicieux.
We have been regular customers at this pastry shop in Laval for quite some time, & it has always been one of our favorite places to get croissants & other treats. Unfortunately, during our recent visits, we've noticed a concerning decline in cleanliness & hygiene practices.
Last Saturday morning, I went in as usual to buy my croissant. The employee who came to serve me had been cleaning while wearing blue gloves. She then came directly to the counter & started putting my order into the bag without changing her gloves. This is not the first time we've noticed similar behavior - employees handling money & food with the same gloves, which is simply unacceptable.
We truly enjoy your pastries & want to continue supporting this business, but proper hygiene is essential in any food establishment. We hope management takes this feedback seriously & improves food safety practices moving forward.
But I'm trying to understand why it cheaper for coffee to go & more expensive if you stay 🤔
If I understand that you incorporated the tip for the service in the in house price 🤔
J'ai relevé plusieurs problèmes de taille: le patron qui tousse sur les paniers de croissants (dégueulasse!), un employé qui fume avec ses gants de travail, la vaisselle sale (morceaux de nourriture collés) & quand je suis passé à la caisse, la vendeuse m'a dit de ne pas laisser de pourboire car les patrons gardent cet argent pour eux. Je laisse du tip pour encourager les personnes qui me servent & non pas pour que cet argent soit volé par les employeurs! Quelle honte! C'est totalement illégal! Je ne reviendrais plus pour toutes les raisons énoncées. & je n'appellerai pas à la boutique car j'ai déjà échangé avec vous & vous êtes arrogante & méprisante.
Had the mango & cocoa trompe oeil - both disgusting & not even crunchy. The prices are crazy expensive too, not going back here. Also I heard the owners keep the tips??? What kind of enterprise does that, it has to be illegal.
Replying to your message: Apparently it's your own staff that is telling the customers they don't receive tips, so maybe instead of saying that I am making up rumors you should address that matter first.

Ate the tarte au citron. The meringue was very thick & sweet. The lemon filling had an odd metal taste??? The tarte was also very hard to cut because the meringue was sticking to the knife.
Also adding a message to the cake costs an extra 5$.
I did have the paris brest on another occasion, & that was good.
A true taste of French baking at the heart of Laval! The actual location does not provide a lot of scenery yet inside it is a feeling of being in a French coffeehouse in Paris. The cakes are shaped in art form. I had breakfast. The only issue I had is that the croissant got wet from the sauce which should have been put aside
Super nice endroit ou l'en peut prendre le temps pour un bon café avec un bon croissant & en bonne compagnie, j'y vais a chaque fin de semaine, le prix n'est pas donné mais on a *le meilleur ouvrier de France là.
Je recommande !!!
