My…read morefamily is passionate about these delicate (but difficult) pastries and we're always eager to try them. I brought home an assortment of 16. Overall, they were quite good, though some uneveness as to texture of the cookies: some were perfect in crumb and moistness, but others were either a tad dry or a bit gummy. Perfection in macarons is hard to achieve, but Bouillet came pretty close! (though I think Pignols nearby, does nail it!)

They have many tasty and beautiful looking pastries here and nice service too. I must admit, of the…read more5 macaroons I tried here, I have had better, but, their caramel one was outstanding. They have some other interesting flavor combinations I would try next time including apricot and thyme. Relative to how highly priced macaroons are in the US, the pricing here was very fair. I would definitely return.

There is a reason the line is down the entry steps out the door at most hours of the day. It can even be difficult to get in line on market days (Tuesday, Friday, Sunday) when merchant stalls block a direct path to the door. This bakery-the ovens are just to your left when you are making and paying for your selections-is a cut above the ordinary. And despite how busy they are the folks behind the counter are knowledgeable and friendly. This is our daily bread go-to place in Annecy.

The chocolate cakes all had a perfect caramelized base crust that is surprisingly good. They open early and close by 7pm. And let's face it, what else can you do if you're stuck in Ferney Voltaire on a cold winter day but snack on some pastries with a cup of hot tea while looking out the window of your hotel room at snow, buildings and roads?

Needless to say they also have these little round cheese breads, imagine a cream puff but its cheesey and savory inside instead of the cream....my husband bought a bag of 10 one Saturday morning....they are a bit bigger than bite size...I think I ate 8 of them with my coffee....DIVINE. Mille feuille, known in the US (well NJ) as a Napoleon , is by far the best here I have ever tasted...It has the perfect ratio of creme:pastry:frosting...too many places skimp on the creme inside or frosting on top but La Fournil has it SPOT on. The only downside is I never get a parking spot nearby and they have no parking but its worth the trip to find parking and go inside.

This place was an epic fail for us. It was open on Sunday morning when most places are not so we…read morechose to come here. All I wanted was a decent plain croissant and a cappuccino and both were a major disappointment. The plain croissant reminded me of something I would get at a hospital or a bakery that labels things as croissants when they are clearly not. No flaky outer layer...just the same as what you find inside. So sad. As if this wasn't enough of a disappointment, as my husband and I sat down to enjoy our cappuccinos (sadly made from a machine and not espresso as I had hoped), we discovered that neither of our coffees actually had any coffee in them and were literally just the milk. The only reason this place gets any stars is I did also purchase a bread with raisins and nuts and I thought it was actually ok. If Sunday this is your only option...think twice or maybe just avoid the croissants and coffee as it seems other comme y'a indicate the actual pastries are ok.

We went on a Friday at 3:30pm and there was only one other person in front of us in the store. The workers speak English and are super kind and friendly! We got the pain au chocolat and butter croissant. The pastries here are, in my opinion, a great price (less than 4 euro total for both). The pain au chocolat had an ample amount of chocolate inside, was crispy on the inside, and soft on the inside. The butter croissant was airy and flaky. There are plenty of other pastry options within the shop to choose from - would definitely recommend stopping by if in Lyon!
