Reviews describe Pâtisserie Amaïro as a standout patisserie where French pastry technique meets delicate Japanese flavors. The comments highlight pastries crafted with evident love and care, featuring both French classics and Japanese treats such as anpan and melon pan, with hojicha and matcha notes appearing in lattes, cream puffs, and cakes. The strawberry shortcake and other seasonal desserts are repeatedly described as delicious, balanced, and not overly sweet, often likened to bite-sized artworks with complex, refined flavors and excellent textures. The teas and tea-based drinks are also valued, and many visitors remark on the warm, friendly service, a charming, cozy, mom-and-pop vibe, and an owner who is responsive and welcoming. Several notes mention new creations that invite return visits, while others warn desserts can sell out quickly and hours may be limited, yet the consensus is that the experience is worth a trip and has earned a place among favorite dessert spots for coffee or tea alongside remarkable pastries.
Excellent, delicately crafted pastries that combines Japanese flavours with French techniques. The teas & tea-based drinks are also a must-try. The service is friendly & attentive. A hidden jewel!
Delightful bakery with a lovely owner (& her mum when she is visiting from Japan!). There are too many favourites to name but I'm a fan of the croissants, the parmesan biscuits, the tropic heart, the cream buns, & the strawberry shortcake. I have also had a custom order yuzu & cassis cheesecake, which was divine & a hit with friends!
Unfortunately they didn't have decaf. Also was hoping for a brighter ambiance. The staff was very friendly though & online the pastries seem very good.
Amazing bakery with great coffee & drinks! My go to are the butter croissant (insanely buttery, yum) & the strawberry shortcake. Service is top notch as well. I can not recommend this bakery enough, it's fantastic.
Les gâteaux sont aussi beaux que bons. Service courtois & efficace. J'aime y passer un petit moment au calme. La carte change régulièrement, il y a souvent des nouveautés à découvrir.
A wonderful Japanese inspired bakery. Come here to try her delicious treats. I come here every so often to try out her creations. You can follow the owner on Instagram to see the goodies she makes & to have a more in depth explanation of her wonderful sweet creations.

I love Amairo. Their pastries are tasty, the owners always kind.
I'm frustrated with the hours of operation. Being one of the only cafes in the neighborhood, it's always busy but only open for a few hours a day. Opening at 11am or 12pm most days & shut for almost half the week in upcoming June. I would really appreciate a third barista joining the team so the cafe could be open in the morning & every day rather than 4x a week
Super belle expérience! La propriétaire était très sympathique & les produits sont de haute qualité, un plaisir d'avoir ce commerce dans notre quartier!
Out & about for a winter walk, I passed by this newly opened place & popped in. The cappuccino tasted great & so did one of the desserts. I'll need to pass by there again soon. I recommend visiting their bakery to try for yourself.
