AMBIANCE Peace, calm and key lime tart, if you are looking for a chill spot where the ambiance matches the first sweet soft creamy bite. From the moment you walk in you instantly can relax because you know that this place will allow you to fall into a warm place with no over stimulation, FOOD Of course the food here is warm flaky and delectable, especially any sandwich that was baked with care. The breakfast sandwich, avocado toast and turkey pesto. The breakfast sandwich was probably one of the most flaky moist sandwiches I've ever had. I would say slightly on the oily side. The only other note I would slightly have is that the avocado toast could probably use a hint of salt, a little bit more pepper and a drizzle of honey on top of that egg to make it top-tier and personally pairing the turkey pesto with a side of ranch is an American dream. However, the real reason why you come here is for the desserts, handcrafted baked perfection, not overyswe, not overpowering one of my top rated spots in San Antonio. When it comes to the service, I mean, let's be so for real. These people are from Texas so obviously you're gonna get the kindest most sweetest people ever super generous caring. We also love that (Bakery Lorraine )offers a military discount. read more

Very yummy food!!! Loved the aesthetic of the restaurant & the cleanliness. It was busy for a Saturday morning but the service was pretty decent. As well the food was pretty good. I got an avocado toast and it caught me off guard with everything on top of it. As well my siblings got pancakes and the lumberjack which was good as well. My only concern was with the coffee, it was a bit too milky for my liking but if you prefer your coffee like that than this is the spot for you! read more

I visited a few weeks ago and ordered macarons and a scone. They were delicious and the staff was very friendly. I also tried to buy some stickers, but most of them were sold out. During that visit, I specifically asked whether I could work from the bakery and if Wi-Fi was available. I was told yes. When I returned this morning, the Wi-Fi was not working. I was told, "Yeah, sometimes we have to use hotspots." While I understand that technical issues happen, it is disappointing since I had specifically come back to work there based on what I was told during my previous visit. I had already ordered my food and had to take my food to go read more

Bakery Lorraine is a solid spot to grab some good coffee when going to The Rim! So this BL location is in the plaza behind Palladium. Please note that parking can be a little difficult when is very busy, however if you are coming on an early morning before stores open you should be fine. The restaurant itself is really nice and love the open concept option they have. Unfortunately their espresso machine wasn't working during my visit and they only had a couple coffee/tea options to choose from. I decided to go for their cold brew since I needed a good caffeine kick and also go their cheese danish toasted. The cold brew was perfection and the cheese danish was absolutely delicious as per usual. My only reason for not giving them a full five-stars was the staff. The people working the counter and the drink section were just slacking pretty bad. You could tell the cooks were hustling and the manager was back and forth cleaning and running around, but those other two were clearly bringing down the ship. One clear example was my cold brew order. The person working the drink orders forgot to check so after some time waiting I decided to go and ask her directly. She immediately prep the drink and then told me there were no lids, which I have no issue with if they ran out. However, I then overheard another staff telling her where they are. You would think she would've come back and be like "ma'am, here is a lid apologies for the confusion". Noup, I could hear her just saying "oh! I didn't know". Similar to my case, I overheard more silly and ridiculous issues with orders that could've been fixed if those two staff members would just give a little more care. Regardless, I don't think this location might be the best representation of Bakery Lorraine as brand. I have always been a fan and love their location at The Pearl. read more

After lunch today, we stopped by @bakery_lorraine at The Rim for dessert. Hubby and I had regular coffee. We all shared the Seasonal Fruit Tart and Opera Cake. Everything was so light. Quality desserts as always. I noticed that they also have a location in Boerne. read more

Worst quiche I have ever had. Basically over cooked mush. Very crowded and not enough help so couldn't even ask for something else without standing in a very very long line. No one checked on us for the 45 minutes we were there. Won't be back. read more

Of course all the pastries, treats, and coffees GREAT! I'm a hot chocolate lover and Thurs is one of my favorites. Theme grilled cheese is absolutely amazing, with goats cheese and some others melted together. The tomato soup is good too. It comes with a slice of bread that has melted cheddar on it to dip in the soup. I like to get this when I'm sick. Perfect cold weather dishes. The quiche is another one of my favorites. Personally I think the bakery Lorraine at the Pearl is just better overall, and cuter inside, but this one was the same great food and service. There is also more open seating at this one. Parking can be difficult when the Rim is busy. read more

I went into bakery lorraine with high expectations. it did not disappoint! a friend recommended this spot to me, I will absolutely be coming back. amazing ambience, food and the customer service was outstanding. The barista on shift was very helpful and had a lovely helping attitude. she was able to accommodate my preference for a latte and add an adequate amount of syrup. Highly recommend!! :) read more

I came with a friend for brunch on Sunday and was happy that it was not crowded. We immediately ordered and found a spot to sit outside. I ended up getting a small tomato soup and a lavender honey latte. I loved that they make the syrups in house, it was really good. The staff was so friendly and gave us good recommendations. Its a great place to come and hang out with a friend! read more

I came here for a coffee and a couple pastries. The coffee was pretty good, and the pastries were tasty, but nothing overly impressive.

I absolutely love bakery lorraine! I've been several times to the different locations and it truly never fails, the people that work there are always the sweetest and are always willing to provide exceptional service. I've also gotten their toogoodtogo mystery bags and absolutely love their portions and i truly hope that never changes! It's also a great place to get work done or catch up with friends! read more

i love the strawberry matcha here it's so delicious and sweet and all the syrups have the perfect amount of yumminess

The food is great. The service can be terrible. One person handling orders coughed into both of her hands and then, without washing them, handled a customer's plate to deliver to their table. Another employee insisted on taking my pastry order not at the pastry counter, but at the register 15 feet away (not customary). She then directed the cougher to fill my order. I told her I did not want the cougher to do that and told her why and she then directed her to wash her hands. No apology. No semblance of kindness or recognition. Just RUDE. I don't think I'll be back. read more

Cute little place but the latte wasn't hot (just a little warm). The lemon croissant was delicious without being too sweet. Other customers seemed to enjoy their drinks and sweets. I probably won't go back. The seating area inside was very warm...too warm to be comfortable. read more

Ordered a Dutch Apple pie for Thanksgiving and it was very delicious that it was gone at the end of the night. I will be ordering more pies from them and try their other pastries read more

I heard great things about this place so wanted to try it. The line was rather long so I had high hopes for the products. Unfortunately they were unable to serve any hot drinks the morning we went. We decided to get some pastries since we had waited in line for so long before being told they couldn't serve coffee or hot tea. The customer service was honestly not the best; they are the type of business that is popular therefore you should know what you want and not ask any questions. We settled on an almond croissant and cinnamon roll. Again, not the best. The pastry was sweet and very crunchy. I like my croissants soft; so was not a fan. Overall was not impressed with the food or service although the ambiance was nice. read more

So I was pretty shocked that this was the same business as the one in Boerne. Food was mediocre. Tomato basil soup tasted like canned tomatoes. Staff seemed uninterested in giving us basic/minimal attention and cashier laughed while reading the soup of the day info to us. Bizarre. The restaurant looked pretty dingy although it was Black Friday but maybe one of the 7 employees could have done a little clean up. Unimpressed and a little disappointed. read more

Parking: Free parking, but can get very busy in this area. Service: everyone is so nice & friendly. Ambiance: plenty of seating area! Food: we loved the crossiants, tomato soup, iced tea etc. Everything we have had has been excellent. A bit $$, but high quality. Highly recommend & will be back! read more

Had a cinnamon roll that must have been a week old. Couldn't cut it with a knife and fork. The icing crumbled into small bits when I tried to bite into it. The cashier must have said "awesome" at least 4 times when I checked out. Evidently millennials are not taught to speak in complete sentences. One word sentences. Awesome or cool. I don't expect to get any great novels out of that generation. At least not from an employee of Bakery For-Shame. read more

A friend and I stopped by Bakery Lorraine for afternoon coffee and treats this past weekend. At about 2:30PM, they were pretty picked over on their selection with the exception of macaroons - they had a ton of those. We ordered two cappuccinos, a chocolate caramel tart and a lime tart. We were given the tarts right away along with a number so they could bring the cappuccinos to our table when ready. The tarts were both impressive and elegant in their presentation! Once our cappuccinos arrived, we each added sweetener and tried them. While it was good, mine seemed to have less foam than a normal cappuccino, was a bit thinner in consistency and wasn't as hot as I would've expected. I did love that it was served in a large mug, but it did seem to cool incredibly fast. The tarts however were delicious! The chocolate caramel tart was very rich and smooth in texture. The lime tart tasted just like a key lime pie. I would go back for tarts for sure! read more

Went at 8:30am for breakfast! It was great. Got the breakfast plate. Delicious! Service was good. Friendly and helpful! Ambiance lacked. It is sterile and too bright!!!!!! Bathrooms could use a good cleaning! No hand soap with a sign next to the sink that reads employees must wash their hands. read more

First time here and a bit disappointed since I had heard great things. First the young man handling pastries did not change his gloves the entire duration of our breakfast. Also the other young man at register was polite but lacking some enthusiasm. The pastries were all fantastic- why I give 3 stars. All were super fresh and they even warmed up my kiddo's cookie. The cuban was lacking the mustardy flavor making it a bit dry. However the potatoes were very flavorful. The tart was AMAZING! The restaurant was clean and cool. The water glasses could be polished a bit more to avoid the water stains but they were not dirty. Definitely wanna try again and see if this day was just a fluke. read more

Easily one of my favorite breakfast places. This may sound silly, but I'm very picky about eggs and these are my favorite. Also can't go wrong with their macaroons. The service is awesome. Never have had to wait for a table. The ambience is very relaxed laid-back always somebody on their laptop, relaxing, and working. read more

Great place to hang out and have great coffee and pastries you lie to your skinny friends about.

Bakery Lorraine at The Rim in San Antonio, TX (there are many here) is a French version of our Starbucks here in the states. This starkly decorated, yet upscale breakfast / lunch place is making some beautiful bakery goods, nice breakfast sandwiches, and really good coffee. I had a terrific Latte and an avocado toast that was pricey, but well worth it. The acoustics are such, that it was the perfect place to meet a business associate of mine to discuss some "Texas" deals that were happening. Besides the good food and drink, Bakery Lorraine fits my comfort zone! read more

Ordered the seasonal salad - it did not have the goat cheese on it. I went to the counter and all of the employees were just standing around. "Oh yeah, it is supposed to have goat cheese,we can put some in a bowl and bring it to you". Then as I'm am eating the salad I noticed not dressed and no pomegranate.i went back to counter and same employees just standing around. "Oh, are out of pomegranate". They gave me a small bowl with dressing. After the first screw up, they should have told me out of a main ingredient. I shouldn't have had to go back to the counter 3x. It was odd- it almost seemed like employees were trying to see what they could get away with. Macaron prices are ridiculous. $3 each and no discount for a dozen? This place should be ashamed read more

Very clean and friendly staff. We ordered a cinnamon roll and asked for it to be warmed in hopes that it would be more like a cinnamon roll should be on the ooey gooey side. Unfortunately we were disappointed that it was crispy and very flakey. The breakfast sandwich was hot and tasty along with quiche Lorraine. The potatoes were tasty but some were still on the uncooked side. read more

To say that I was disappointed with our last visit was an understatement. We had a medical emergency come up that we had to leave for. When the cook was asked to make the order to go, he looked at the cashier ugly and proceeded to throw his utensils and food around and slinging the orders that were ready onto the counter out to the cashier. Both cashiers were visibly embarrassed. We tried to reassure them it wasn't their fault and that we just had an emergency and had to leave. We waited 10 more minutes and though he worked on half our order he proceeded to work on other orders instead of ours. He would not answer the cashiers and they would have to go around to counter to check on things. We finally had to leave. We did not receive a refund nor our food. We were very careful to be nothing but accommodating and courteous to all of the staff. It's such a shame. read more

The inside is bright and clean. The prices are slightly high, but the food is quality. I ordered and loved the breakfast plate. The eggs and bacon were good. The bread was so fluffy and the jam was some of the best I've ever had. My friend ordered and enjoyed the Cuban sandwich. There are a decent amount of tables and different sized tables throughout the restaurant and the parking was pretty good. read more

This place had good food. I liked my turkey pesto sandwich and the mixed green salad was fresh and had a lemony vinaigrette. The only downside to this place is that people like to sit at tables and just work at 4 people tables. I had to sit with my boyfriend at a bar facing the wall because we couldn't even find a 2 person table. read more

It definitely wasn't what I was expecting. I thought I'd treat myself to a French toast and a coffee but when I got the French toast it definitely looked perfect crispy with no signs of egg batter. It was nice looking but when I took the first bite you could taste the old/too hot grease it was cooked in. It reminded me of fried carnival food. When I asked they confirmed it was deep fried. Wish I would've known this before ordering. I ended up with a stomach ache before I even left the restaurant (The bathrooms were really clean though). The coffee was good but could've been a little warmer as the restaurant was really cold. I was definitely disappointed in my $22 breakfast. Won't do that again. :/ read more

Wow oh wow! Recommended by my friend who used to live in san antonio. This bakery is so chic and modern. I love the setting? Very European. The food was delicious, so far everything we have tried is great. The almond croissant was super goood, The raspberry cheese danish was heavenly, the BLT sandwich is sooo gooooood especially the butter that they put on the bread!!!! The salmon avocado toast is okay, I'm not a big fan of avocado toast but the portion is good. Pricing is okay, kinda on higher side but portion is big, i would just get one bakery item and one entree to share. Overall A+ would come again read more

I can't believe I haven't reviewed this place previously! This is one of our go-to spots for breakfast/brunch and also lunch. The food is also spectacular and the staff is always super nice and helpful. Some of our favorites are the quiche-- best I've ever had (my husband agrees). They make exquisite lattes and cappuccinos-- good LORD and the size of the mug will make you squeal with delight. Let me give you a gift: Order the grilled cheese with tomato soup for lunch and you'll think you die and went to heaven. To die for!! Surprisingly, the one thing we've never had is any of the delightful desserts and pastries, I'll have to work on that. Can't recommend this place enough-- it is superb! read more

Their chicken salad sandwich was amazing. They forgot my chips the first time I ordered. And the second time around the made up the difference by adding a dessert. And it was amazing.

Oh long delay on this post. Now I will share that I appreciate good sweets, however I prefer sweets that are NOT too sweet. Originally placed orders on line prior to Thanksgiving. The day of the orders Lorraine Bakery called us to remind us of their pick up times. Casual atmosphere, great bakery! Now on to the pies. We ordered Whiskey Pecan Pie & a Cranapple Pie. Both pies were beautifully presented. Both pies absolutely amazing! What I did appreciate is the natural perfected tartness along with sweet of the crabapple pie. Would definitely buy both pies again. read more
