Review from my girlfriend:) If you are interested in Asian…read moreor African decor features so you will then indeed immediately like Boutique Cardas. It's the kind of shop where I actually would never buy anything from it, but it's just very pleasing for the eyes because it looks so elegant! They have a big golden Buddha statue inside. They sell very beautiful items for home decoration like glassware, tea cups and pots, candles, flower vases and so on. You will find neckerchiefs, scarves and bags too. The shop is located at Rue de Bourg which is the branch of some luxury shops like Hermes and Louis Vuitton. Of course that means the prices of Cardas items are very expensive.

I also love this shop! But I do not think the prices are excessive. Honestly, I always find gift…read moreideas that fit my budget (even for 10 or 20 francs if you take your time). It is clear that this is not the price of shops chain as MaxiBazar, but this is normal, it's a shop with artisanal and ethical dimension! And thanks to them we are saving airfare tickets ;-)

One reviewer said this place was stuck in the past and needed updating....uh that is what some of…read moreus like to call "charm". Located a few feet from the train station in Lausanne, Le Romantica is a clean old school pastry shop loaded with goodies. Sitting outside and people watching is great. The prices are reasonable..10.50 chf for a coffee, one savory croissant and one sweet pastry. The employees speak enough English to get by. A suggestion...maybe you as a visitor learn a little of the local language. The only reason for 4 instead of 5 stars is they had no WiFi.

If you need an excuse to indulge then there is no need to look any further. This place is tasty,…read moreyummy and fabulous! Desserts, chocolates and sandwiches galore. I had a chicken curry croissant a few days ago and want to walk back for more. I justify the urge by walking to the bakery. If you walk, then you will burn calories. When you burn calories, you must replenish with more goodies! Today I had some fromage and a strawberry tart. I plan on cleaning them out when I depart for the states later on this week. The people are very friendly and patient for the non-speaking French patrons who come to visit! Très bon!

I love to walk up the hill into the old part of town and enjoy the beautiful views of the lake. There is no better place to do this than here. There is a fantastic view overlooking the lake and town from this Tea Room. Everything is fresh and hand made, and the owners are fantastic. I have eaten here on several occasions and I have never been disappointed. I take all my out of town guests here and they fall in love. One of my favorite visits is when the owner shared with us his home made pumpkin soup that was cooking outside in a large cauldron. That was the best pumpkin soup I have ever had. Definitely a place you cannot pass up!

Yelp Review 2026 #157:…read more I had already went to Laduree in Montreux in the morning. Lausanne isn't far from Montreux but I went to Laduree Lausanne even though I already got macarons. This location is bigger and cuter than the one in Montreux. I got finger patisserie in pistachio, and chocolate caramel hazelnut, and a jar of chestnut cream. I also got a cute pink coffee cup and a tote bag because I picked up some chocolates and the paper bags were heavy they started ripping. The macaron flavors are the same for the whole country. The only difference for this location is that they can print "Lausanne" on your macaron for an extra 0.80CHF. I didn't need any more macarons though as I still have 2 unopened boxes of them from Montreux. The desserts from Laduree are always good. Service was ok.

It's so hard to walk by any Ladurée shop with their perfectly soft and yummy macarons. They also…read morehave other beautiful French pastries if you are in the mood for something else. It's certainly a nice spot to stop in for a fantastic treat!

This is an amazing spot - I have rarely seen such a good price/quality/volume ratio…read more The raclette is by far the best option - you get basically more than you could ever eat when it comes to cheese and potatoes, but the other options are worth their salt. And the taste will be amazing as well (I mean, there are few ways you could mess up a raclette purchased in Savoy) Hidden a bit away from the most touristy areas of Evian as well as the road around the lake, this place does not go for gimmicks to attract its customers. It's all about taste and volume when it comes down to the cheese. The owners are nice (although you might want to be comfortable with dogs - they have one and it hangs around the restaurant), and the selection of drinks is pretty decent too.

We went with raclette savoyarde avec charcuterie et pommes de terre (fromage à volonté).
