They have so many options for bread and pastries and sandwiches and everything I've tried is insanely good, particularly their baguettes and chocolate croissants. The staff is so kind and welcoming and I can't recommend this place enough!

Fantastic croissants and chocolate croissants comparable to the elite Le Pains de Idees in Paris…read more Their baguette, one of the many varieties, the long one I tried was a basic one but a lovely one. The Madeline's were lovely too. A nice bakery to say the least. My favorite element would be the ovens and the conveyer belt you can see behind the counter with the bread going in and out. Reasonable prices, excellent selection and cute location. Can't complain. We went in November on a Tuesday morning and there was no one in the shop, a few patrons arrived after us. If there was a line for this I definitely wouldn't wait, it's not that good. However I'm under the impression that this is the best bakery in the central historic part of Bordeaux.

Lucky for us, this boulangerie was just a 2-minute walk from our AirBnB during our recent stay in…read moreBordeaux. Located right next to the Saint Michel cathedral, it faces the open square and is surrounded by several other cute restaurants and shops. There is no seating inside, but there is plenty of seating in the square. It's a popular spot so there is usually a line, but the lines moves quickly. Of course, order your daily baguette here (we did!). But in addition to their fresh baked breads, they also offer some pastries such as classic French croissants, cannelés, madeleines, and more. I found their prices to be extremely reasonable compared to other boulangeries in the area (we did our own boulangerie crawl), and the service was fast and friendly.

But they are even tastier. Apparently they have custard and rum inside but I couldn't taste either. Price is pretty reasonable at 6 for 6.5 Pain au chocolat was also fairly good.

Excellent bakery. Great croissant - crisp and flaky outside and soft on the inside…read more Service is friendly and efficient. They have a good number of seats too.

And this one little bakery is the one we keep returning to. The bread is simply divine, with the best texture and flavor, and made on site with organic and fresh ingredients. There are many varieties, wish we had time to try them all, and my favorite is one with chocolate. My only complain is that it's take out only. There is not even space where you can stand to eat, and they don't sell any coffee or drink. The counter is a mere foot or two from the door, enough space to place your order, and behind the counter you see the production facility, and that's all there is. Baking is all they do, all they focus on, and they sure do a mighty good job of it.

I was initially skeptical since they're a chain, and I had a bad experience with Baillardran, but a…read morelocal friend taught me to ask for a more toasted canele since I like the ones with more of a crust, and it was a brilliant idea. Their caneles are actually the cheapest, at only 70 cents for the regular size. It had good rum flavor and wasn't too sweet. It was a bit dense inside but had a great crust outside. They take credit cards for bigger orders, but I think they prefer cash. Tip: definitely ask for the more toasted ones for better texture.

A very understated, traditional style bakery on busy Cours Portal in the Chartrons quartier of…read moreBordeaux, offering an array of freshly baked breads. You'll find the "traditional" baguette (my favorite) still warm, displayed amongst a variety of baguettes and freshly baked breads. The breakfast pastries (as we Americans like to call them) are divine. Simple, delicious and always fresh. The "pain aux raisin" is a favorite along with the traditional croissant and the heavenly almond croissant. Get there early and you'll see all the fixin's for the sandwiches freshly prepared and waiting for your selection. I've never indulged in their dessert style pastries though they too look inviting. I'm too busy shoving bite size pieces of warm baguette into my mouth to give it more thought. Lucky me, this little jewel is located just at the end of my street! I've experienced warm baguettes at all times of the day. You will not be disappointed if you pop into Le Pain d'Elise!

I saw some instances where someone who came in later got served first.

I ordered the lemon tart and my boyfriend ordered the chocolate eclair. We were both blown away by how good both choices were! The tart was the perfect balance of sweet and tart, just small enough to eat on-the-go while we continued our walk. The eclair was very tasty as well. They paid a lot of attention to detail in making the filling, rather than just blasting it with as much sugar as possible like many bakeries do. We actually ended up coming back here the next morning to get a box of snacks for our train ride to Arcachon. We snagged a delicious strawberry pastry, a rocher, another eclair, and a chocolate cake-like pastry. The strawberry pastry was much milder than the other deserts and a great way to start the day. The rocher was a very rich chocolate moose encased in a hard chocolate shell mixed with nuts, and topped with a gold flake. Note, I only tried the sweet deserts. There was a large selection of artisan baked goods, ranging from eclairs to gold-foiled tarts. They also had a large selection of cookies, gift bags, cakes, breads, scones, sandwiches, and cheaper breakfast snacks. This is a must-try in Bordeaux.
