One of the first patisseries I've fallen in love with in Toronto (the one near trinity though) - it…read moreis on the pricier side which is to be expected but this isn't what the review is about. This patisserie in the path is such a quiet place that barely has customers every time I've walked by ...now I know why. There was only one person when I stopped by, popped in to grab a quick little treat for a coworker's birthday. The one girl working didn't acknowledge me at all until she had no other choice, not a simple "I'll be with you in a second" or even a glance/nod over. Vibes were very off. Also she was the slowest mover I've ever seen, it felt like all her movements were in slow-mo from wrapping, packaging the processing payment. I've literally never seen a human worker move at that pace. Even after the other customer wrapped up and left it took her at least another minute before looking up at me. When I picked my item, again... she was moving at a pace where natural selection would've definitely taken her out. Not sure what was going on but it was weird. The air was stiff as there wasn't any customer service, kindness or even welcoming in the store. And the audacity of the machine to ask for a tip???? For what? Packing up a pastry at a snails pace? Tipping culture has really gotten out of hand. Grabbed my item and left, with no intent of ever returning if I'm paying premium prices for pastries, there are much better, friendlier and QUICKER places to go to. +1 star for the pretty pastry.

Lumière Pâtisserie is a Thornhill gem--proof that you don't have to go downtown for great pastries…read more Yes, it's tucked into a suburban plaza off a parking lot, but inside it's light-filled, calm, and smells like heaven. The service is consistently warm, and the pastry case is hard to resist. We've tried many of their cakes, and the blackcurrant queen cake is hands down our favorite--tart, elegant, and just sweet enough. Their salted caramel croissant is beautifully laminated and filled with just the right amount of caramel. In fact, their croissants across the board are solid--flaky, tender, and buttery without being greasy. The sourdough bread is excellent, and the espresso drinks are reliably strong and well-crafted. It may look like Paris inside, but don't let that inspire your inner Francophile--the staff are lovely, but no one's following your French. Still, this is the kind of place that keeps regulars coming back. We're definitely among them.

The espresso here is excellent - well-bodied in flavour, medium roast (I think?), and pairs nicely with the sweetness of the cakes & pastries.

We shared the cream & crumb cheesecake (simple, classic, and incredibly creamy!) and tiramichoux (think a tiramisu profiterole - such a fun twist!). Looking forward to my next visit already :)

We ordered the lemon meringue tart, the donut, and the Soleil, and every dessert was beautifully made. The Soleil was my favourite by far. It had the perfect balance of tartness and sweetness, and the shortbread base absolutely melted in your mouth. The lemon meringue tart was fresh and bright, and the donut was almost a caramel/creme brule flavour. The desserts are definitely on the pricier and smaller side, but the taste was great and they looked elegant, so well worth it for special occasions.

The cakes are always rotating with the seasons, so it's fun to pop in and see what's new. I recently tried what the cashier called their "signature cake": the Marie Antoinette. This is a very light cake-- both in density and in sweetness. It's a pannacotta cake decorated with colourful macarons. I can see this pleasing people who don't like chocolate desserts. (That said, Nadege has truly great chocolate desserts.) They've recently closed the gelato shop in the back and turned their bakery section into a bistro called Chez Nad. Can't wait to try it out!
