I've visited Ladurée a few times now, and it truly feels like stepping into a pastry shop in the heart of Paris. The decor is stunning, and the attention to detail in their packaging and presentation is second to none. The Macarons. There's a reason they are world famous. The texture is always spot on a delicate, crisp shell with a soft, flavorful center. My personal favorites are the Pistachio and the Rose Petal; they aren't overly sweet and taste incredibly authentic It's an expensive habit, but for a high-quality treat or a beautiful gift box, Ladurée is hard to beat. read more

Ladurée - Macarons Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

I honestly felt like I stepped right into a dream in Paris Everything about this boutique is just so incredibly aesthetic - from the soft mint walls to the gorgeous gold detailing. I stopped by for some macarons and a latte, and it was the perfect little escape from the shopping rush The Marie Antoinette tea is a must-try, it's so delicate and floral And can we talk about the packaging? I almost didn't want to open the box because it was so pretty! The staff were so sweet and made the whole experience feel really special. If you love beautiful things and delicious treats as much as I do, you absolutely need to visit. It's pure magic in a box! read more

I got some macarons and double shot espresso. I enjoyed the macarons - they were baked well and tend to be on the sweeter side. The espresso was fresh so I have no complaints. The staff was very accommodating and patient. The order came out fairly quick and I enjoyed my experience here. The ambience of this shop is really cute as you can sit and enjoy your order. read more

Ladurée - Macarons Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

We recently revisited Laduree after almost 5 + years. My oldest had, (love the sound of that!) a tree nut allergy and almonds in our home were a hard no. I had to bring her here for a taste of the best macarons for her first try. These still taste incredible, amazing and of fine quality. Just as they were on our last trip to Paris! We ordered a variety. I would be lying if I said we slowly enjoyed these - they were devoured by the 4 of us as soon as the box was opened. The flavours and textures are still exceptional and still remain my fav for macarons. read more

I wanted to visit Laduree Paris Yorkdale Shopping Centre location for a long time but it is always full house on the weekend. Finally, I have a chance to visit this place when they first open on a Friday morning. I ordered the same items as I did at the Laduree Paris location more than a decade ago and the following are my experience. - The café is nice and quiet on a Friday morning. Therefore, I can peacefully enjoy all this treats. - Service is good for café standard but nothing fancy. - The Ladurée Viennese Hot Chocolate and Ispahan tasted similar to the Paris location. - Their toast is special, there are nothing that I am aware that tasted / texture similar in other cafes. - The Ladurée Omelette is overcook compare to the Paris location. Overall Laduree Paris Yorkdale Shopping Centre is a nice place to enjoy a morning brunch with your love ones but I will try to avoid the weekend crowd. read more

Such a cute place to get together for some afternoon tea; the pink background was a perfect photo opportunity for pictures in our Barbie move outfits. The food was even a little more than enough for each of us, with a good variety of set and choice items. The service was solid and timely; we had no trouble getting everything we needed. Overall, a lovely experience. read more

Ladurée - a high tea spread - Macarons Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

The pros: this place is sooo cute and feels like you're transported to Europe. You get a whole lot of food, though some of the food is delicious and other food is meh. Personally, I didn't love the sandwiches and the salad was just berries. Their baked goods, both sweet and savoury, are delicious, especially their macarons. And you get their line of teas to choose from. The cons: no scones and afternoon tea feels incomplete without them. The sandwiches. The price is on par with most other afternoon teas so expensive but average when compared. Service was fine - friendly enough. read more

It was my first time trying Ladurée macarons, I knew there was a hype for this store and have always wanted to try them. I really liked the store it was so extremely cute! I saw that half the store was also a cafe, maybe they offer high tea? They had many macron flavours to pick from and I purchased the 8 piece box ($28.00) which I think is average price for macrons. These macrons were very tasty perfectly chewy, crunchy and not to sweet. Would I come back again? Maybe if I wanted to buy the brand but I feel like I still prefer macrons from Daango Cake Lab more. read more

I've been a Laduree fan for many many years and have been ordering from the Toronto branch ever since they opened up in the city. I love Laduree for their flavours, quality, and service. I've also been ordering sets of 24 for delivery out of GTA and they've always arrived in perfect condition. but I want to highlight the stark difference between Laduree macarons and other macarons in the market that I've noticed recently. a week ago, I forgot that I had another box of macarons I hadn't eaten in the fridge that I was supposed to finish already (due to freshness). I don't often leave them uneaten for more than a week, but I was more preoccupied than usual and I had just gotten to them. when I say I was surprised by the freshness/quality of the macarons is an understatement. the taste was still the same. the softness, the crunch, the texture... though not exactly the same as first day batches, still wowed me. other macarons I've had (from other businesses) after a few days were not as soft and delicious as Laduree macarons and I think this is a testament of why I'm still a fan until today. safe to say that I'll be ordering again next month. and the next. my favourites are rose, birthday cake (might have been seasonal/limited edition), and marie antoinette. read more

Ladurée - Macarons Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

I came here to get some Macarons to go so I bought eight for around $30 there was only one flavour that was sold out when I went around noon. The Macarons had a really delicate texture and also some greens which I really enjoy when it comes to eating Macarons. I got the pistachio, hazelnut, vanilla, Rose, Marie Antoinette which is a black Tea leaf flavour, Orange blossom. I gifted most of my Macarons away but I really enjoyed the vanilla and I thought the roses also really nice considering how most rose flavoured items are very overpowering but this one had a very nice to you like finish to it very light and refreshing. The one thing I would caution people with a peanut allergy is there is cross-contamination I believe every single one had traces of peanuts in it. read more

Ladurée Located in Yorkdale Mall This boutique and tea salon is known for their French macarons with such a large range of exquisite flavours. We were recommended to dine in and try out their tea salon as they serve afternoon tea sets. The tea salon has a special menu that is only available for dine-in that consist of classic French dishes and Parisian afternoon sets. We had to try their Afternoon Tea! This set consisted of a mini 3-layered tower, a seasonal fruit salad and a choice of hot drink. Starting off with the bottom layer, the savoury items included the assortment of 3 savoury tartlets with the choice of two finger sandwiches. For our finger sandwiches, we chose the smoked salmon and avocado & piquillo. We found these items mediocre. The tartlets were a little hard in texture, and the sandwiches were mainly bread. The second layer contained more sweet rather than savoury treats, and had 4 different items. Madelines Mini Vanilla Choux Mini Tartlette Passion Framboise Mini Temptation Cake Finally the top layer consisted of 3 macarons of your choice. We opted for marie-antoniette, raspberry and passionfruit flavours. These macarons can never go wrong, and were crunchy and soft. On the sides of this set came a seasonal fruit salad, and a drink. The seasonal fruit salad was super refreshing from all the sweets and treats on the tower. As for our drink, we had the option of tea, coffee and hot chocolate. We chose to try their hot chocolate, and it did not disappoint. The hot chocolate was super rich and thick, and we loved it! read more

What's not to love! Afternoon tea? Cakes? Macarons! Cucumber sammiches.. all neatly packed/ baked/ serve. It's always a feast for the eyes. And tastebuds too but mostly for my eyes. Their afternoon tea was a great way to try their sandwiches. I love the tea! And naturally, their macarons, gorgeous cakes. Pistachio being my favorite. The macarons takeout/ boxes are great for gifts too and ya don't have to fly to Charles de Gaulle for it. It's a win win. read more

We love Ladurée and were so glad to find a location inside Yorkdale Shopping Centre. Indoor seating is available. Restrooms are in the back and clean. Employees are friendly, helpful, patient, and wrapped our goodies neatly. This is still by far some of my favorite macarons. It's pricey, but I appreciate the quality ingredients and flavor. Slightly crisp outer shell and soft within. The filling is also cool, creamy, smooth, and not overly sweet. Tried their Lemon Cake and Langues de chat and both were well prepared. So fresh and flavorful. Glad we got a chance to visit this location. read more

Pretty but pricey macarons. I don't know if it's just me or their service has gone down drastically. The girl by the door had no smile and the other girl who was serving me didn't know Cassis meant blackcurrant. The description/tag had the name "Cassis" on it and I had to repeat 3 times. The fourth time I just had to say blackcurrant. read more

So I've had macarons at plenty of places including in and around Europe and Paris. These are on point! They are the perfect consistency of the right crispy and moistness. The flavors are amazing! I got pistachio and the Marie Antoinette (from recommendation of the employee), but flavors were made to perfection. My only regret is I wish I had gotten more macarons. They even had cute Lunar New Year stamped macarons, but those had to be special ordered to get them. I wish they had some in the display case they were so darn cute. There was also macaron gelato that I wished I would have gotten, but just had dinner and was far too full. They have a cute little sitting area for their tea room, but when I went it was late in the evening and the tea room was already closed. I'm glad I was able to get a few macarons, they were so delicious. I highly recommend going here and I would suggest getting multiple flavors so that you can try them all. read more

I walk by this store so many times, but never have stepped inside until I realized they actually take reservations on OpenTable, so we decided to give it a try on a weekday when the mall isn't as busy and boy, the place got busy quickly! Our brunch dishes honestly wasn't the best, but maybe we'll come back to try their afternoon tea sets next time! 3 out of 5 stars for the ambience & decor but food needs to be improved. Overall, a pretty place for a nice ladies afternoon tea with insta-worthy macarons! read more

Beware, not to pick the gift box, totally not worth it, the sales person didn't tell me they charged extra, well... my fault too anyways. in Paris, those "gift boxes" come with it with no cost! Choice wise not as good as Paris (as expected), but quality still good. read more

I really want to get more but the line is long whenever I go there, and it's such a small place that the seats are occupied most of the time, which tells you it's really that good and it's the place you want to get macarons My fav are the pistachios macarons. They all taste delicious, presentation is top notch, beautiful, and the box package is cute! Worthy to use as a gift, perhaps this holiday season hmm?... This place is so good that it makes me daydream, like I'm somewhere in Europe such as Paris or London, having tea with my desserts. I recommend this place. read more

Ladurée - Macarons Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

I love love love Laduree..I have had their macaroons in different parts of the world and I'm more than happy that they Javed made their way to TO. So where do I start from?The store is such a treat to look at always decorated gorgeously and I think that's one of their biggest attraction. My review is only on their macaroons because I never bother on trying anything else there. So far I have just been to this location twice and have enjoyed my all time favs the rose petal and pistachios macaroons.They have a decent variety of different flavored macaroons but I always stick to them. So here they sell by the piece or in boxes.The boxed ones are a bit pricey compared to the open by piece macaroons-I know that sounds bizarre but that's how this place functions. This store itself is a mid size store with a few tables to serve the food/drinks/afternoon tea. read more

Ladurée - Rose Ice Cream and Macaron - Macarons Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Hate to say this but I'm not a macaron person. This place is definitely well known for it so I feel I really don't need to say more. They certainly make them look delicious. I'm more of a food and coffee person. I ordered one of my favourite brunch dishes the croque monsieur. Basically, ham and melted Swiss cheese. It was delicious. Presented in the most original way (check photo). Paired with a simple set of mixed greens and lemon dill dressing. Honestly, it was perfect . I was thoroughly surprised and impressed. I'm still thinking about this dish. I kind of want to go back. Ordered a latte with the espresso and milk brought separately so I could decide for myself proportions. The only bummer is I couldn't order a coffee to go. I would have loved another one to fuel my caffeine habit. read more

The first time I came here I had a pretty mediocre experience with the unmotivated servers and awkward staring. However Laduree has definitely improved their customer service. Both the server who got macarons and the cashier were great. Unlike the first time, they acknowledged me right away and were super polite. The macaron pricing and flavours have not seemed to change since opening and the store is beautiful as always! I've read in the Toronto Star they get their macarons flown in from Switzerland. Despite not being baked fresh and served right away, Laduree has not compromised the quality of their macarons with two slightly chewy almond cookies and a creamy center. In addition, unlike many other macaron stores, the filling of these macarons are not overly sweet and taste true to their flavour. So far, my favourite has been hazelnut which tastes EXACTLY like a much less sweeter but more enjoyable Ferrero Rocher. Can complain about the pricing but because it is a higher-end patisserie, it's a treat. read more

Ladurée - hazelnut and pistachio - Macarons Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

I have been to Ladurée's all over the world. If I'm in a city that has a Ladurée, I always pay a visit. I swear by their macarons. They are deadass the best in the world. They are the OGs, and that is something that cannot be denied. I have tried macarons all over the GTA. All the top places in Toronto (Nadege, Butter Avenue, Petit Nuage) you name it. I've been there. I'd have to say Ruelo in Markham has come the closet to being comparable to Ladurée. But yo, I'm telling you, Laduree is the way a macaron is supposed to taste, feel and look. Unfortunately this location doesn't have ice cream yet and that's really what we came for. Their ice cream is a game changer!! Their coffee ice cream topped with a coffee macaron is EVERYTHING. I'm telling you. The vanilla bean is poppin too. My girlfriend and I arrived on a Thursday evening and Yorkdale was poppin as usual. The line was pretty poppin too, but we didn't think it was so bad. I'd estimate 25 people in front of us. We stood in line for 5 mins and a lady came out to see if anyone was dining in the tea room. Why the heck not ?? we thought. She had an immediate opening for a table for 2. Score! We were seated right away. I'd advise to do this, instead of waiting in line. The resto has 11-12 tables, so not big at all. Tell me how service took deadass FOREVER!? Just like the other reviews, I'd have to say the service is lacking. There were 2 servers and I'd assume they split the tables. Maybe they are over worked, I give them that. However, the menu is really no frills. The desserts are already made and if you're ordering actual food, then yes, maybe that can take a little longer. But it should not get to the point where we have to flag someone down to take our order after 15 mins. It should not take 20 minutes to bring out 4 macarons that are literally just behind the counter. Literally, I can see them and get them myself. It really would have been much quicker. We felt that our server might've forgotten about bringing them to us because we had to ask her for them. After we did, she brought them out right away. I do feel maybe they are over worked because they have a constant flow of people all day but I mean??? Still. Anyways, my girlfriend also ordered an ice tea and I ordered an ice coffee. Decent prices. 4.50 for each drink. It's literally just ice and coffee with your choice of milk. They have almond milk!! Thank god. So don't expect any sweetener or anything. We both had to add a little sugar to our drinks. While seated I was also able to order 2 macarons to go, so thankfully that took 2 seconds. The bill took awhile as well, but not as long as the food. So I'm knocking off a star for service cuz I still stand by their bombass macarons. When I bit into that vanilla macaron. Ohhhh man. It was just like I remembered. The perfect vanilla macaron. My gf felt the same about the pistachio. Service can and I hope will be improved. Perhaps hire a third person for dine-in and a second person to pack macarons for take-out? I think that would make a HUGE difference. They only had 2 people behind the counter. One at the cash and one packing orders. That or they would cash out their own customers. Totally not efficient. All in all, I was glad we were able to dine in. I thought it would be months before we'd be able to try this Laduree. read more

The line up only took us about 30 minutes on a Thursday late afternoon. The confusing part was that the same line was for you to just buy the macaron and to sit down. Anyways we sat down around 8pm, the Laduree afternoon tea set were sold out. It's $50, which is very reasonable for a tea set. Moving on to the seats, they are already getting dirty and the cups and plates were already very scratched and looks old. I would highly recommend they maintain that if they want to maintain a certain vibe. The music was loud and not the right type of music played at this type of cafe setting. I ended up ordering the club sumon $19, lettuce, cucumber, free range eggs and smoked salmon. They toasted the bread, flavour wise pretty good. I've ordered the first tea on the menu, I didn't really like it as it has a fruity taste yet not strong enough. For the macarons, they have seasonal flavours, the ones with the asterisk such as raspberry, strawberry candy, passion fruit and hazelnut. I bought a box of 8 to go and selected cafe, pistachio, Rose, vanilla, chocolate, maple syrup, passion fruit, hazel nut. My favourite was the vanilla, then chocolate and pistachio. The rose tasted like soap, maple syrup one was too sweet. The others ones were nothing to write home about. (Approx 2.5 star) read more

Folks the legend has arrived in Toronto finally. The place that set the standards for macarons eons ago and others have been playing catch up with minimal success (Pierre Herme own off shoot an exception IMO). This store is smaller with a bit of seating as well if you want to try something more substantial. I was here for one thing only :) tried 4 types on this visit and I assure you I will go through the entire roster eventually as they are immaculate. I might even try their dine in option when the crowds subside as what I saw was enticing to say the least. Mini update. I have tried the dine in option as well a few times now. The french toast is the "The Best" in the city and I don't use those words lightly folks. Worth a detour! read more

First of all, the exterior and interior of Ladurée is truly unmatched. It's so pastel and girly! Makes me smile every time I pass by it. As for their world famous macarons, they are priced at $3.50 each. This is very pricey and it doesn't include the boxing/packaging you might want to include. I just ordered their Pistachio flavour and the Rose. Both were true to taste and the cookie & filling textures were perfect. Although their Pistachio was the best Pistachio macaron I've had yet...I think for the flavour selection, I've had better elsewhere for a more affordable price AND at the same high quality. read more

Ladurée - Macarons Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

I have to hand it to Ladurée for generating such a charming atmosphere in their small store. The decor elevates their brand, and creates a sense of luxury. My friend and I arrived around 12:30pm on a Tuesday, and waited in line for about 20 minutes. There were no staff outside manning the line or providing instructions, so everyone was a bit confused. Was this the line just to buy macarons? Was there a separate process to get seated? They could definitely use some more ushers. Macarons are never cheap, but I do think the prices here are slightly higher than average ($27 for a box of 6). The flavours I ordered were chocolate, vanilla, salted caramel, rose petal, hazelnut, and coffee. They tasted quite similar to other macarons such as at Butter Avenue. I do wish I had tried the Canada-exclusive maple syrup macaron. I don't think the macarons are worth the money (perhaps just the gorgeous packaging makes up half the price), but I would visit Ladurée for the experience. read more

Salted Caramel - Ngl I couldn't taste the salt flavour at all compared to the caramel Pistachio - Very strong pistachio flavour, feels like there's little grains of pistachio inside - it's got that nutty texture too !! - Pistachio is my favourite macaron flavour so I had to try this out and overall, it definitely didn't disappoint! Ispahan - Tbh it tastes a bit like a perfume when you first bite into it LOL (probably bc of the rose, which was quite strong) - I didn't like the raspberry filling though, it which was a little too sweet and overpowering imo. Tbh I also mistook the filling for strawberry jam at first LOL ... - Overall... I'd say pick this if you like raspberry flavoured stuff bc that's the strongest aftertaste Marie Antoinette - Strong black tea taste - Rose flavour is more subtle compared to the Ispahan flavour - Even though I'm a big rose fan (especially rose milk tea LOL), I preferred the Marie Antoinette to Ispahan even tho Ispahan had a stronger rose flavour because you can focus more on the rose taste with this one :) Orange Blossom - Definitely unique LOL, kinda tastes like a perfume again - Not for me but my sister liked it LOL Overall Definitely a cute store!! There's a few seats available for dine in at the moment but I just got take out. Ladurée is very much moreso on the expensive side and since I wasn't getting it for anyone, I just chose to buy my macarons in a bag (since the box is $$$ LOL). I'm mainly giving this an ok because for the price (around $17.5 for 5 macarons), I feel like you can get similar quality macarons elsewhere AND more of them in more unique flavours. The service was also meh. I feel like I also got the most unique flavours out of their selection (other flavours pretty basic, i.e: coffee, chocolate, vanilla, lemon, raspberry) and I really only liked the pistachio one LMAO... But I guess the upside is that the store itself is originally from France so it's more authentic than other macaron selling places. I probably wouldn't go out of my way to buy macarons from here again but I'd be down to dine in and try other desserts with friends simply for the ambiance LOL read more

Was supposed to be a nice brunch...found it's mouldy on one of the raspberries when I almost finished everything. The even worse part that got me really disappointed and upset was the response from the waitress. She came over to ask if I've finished, I said yes but I need to show you something, so I showed her the mouldy raspberry, she's like oh, so you finished? I was like yeah just need to take a picture. After I took the picture she took the plates and stuff away without saying anything else. Was not looking for a free lunch, so I paid and left with tips, not a 20% tip but it should be generous enough for the mouldy raspberry. read more

We came to Laduree for afternoon tea and brunch and it did not disappoint! Their macarons have always been my favourite but the afternoon tea and pastries were delicious as well. The French toast is a must! Super soft bread with a perfect crust. The tartlets were delicious, we had smoked salmon, avocado piquillo and ham and pickles. The portion is pretty filling and we had a lot left over to take home - it was worth it. I had the melange tea which is their most popular tea - perfect balance of floral, citrus and spice. Recommend! read more

Wow is this place expensive but the macaroons are so yum! Worth it if you really want to spoil yourself. The store itself is always busy and packed of people...tables are a bit small and close together. Also people lining up for the macaroons can be annoying as you are having tea but such a cute little shop and food is good. 8 macaroons for a little over 20$...it's steep. My favourite flavours are the salted caramel and pistachio. read more

I have always loved Laduree's macarons but I have never had the chance to sit down in their store and enjoy their brunch menu until recently. I would always just drop by and grab some macarons as the seating area was always full and I didnt want to wait. Luckily this time when we walked by and saw there was some empty tables and we got seated right away. Now, I am well aware that entering this store means $$$ but it is definitely worth it (at least once in a while when you want to treat yourself!) We ordered some macarons and the rose french toast to share. As always, the macarons just melt away in your mouth! My favourite flavours are the Salted Caramel, Pistachio and the Rose. The french toast was also pretty good, it came with raspberry sauce and whipped cream and the toast was SO soft and fluffy i didnt even think I was eating toast! There were so many things we wanted to try on the menu but we had just eaten lunch not too long ago and couldnt order the savoury items. The ladies at the table next to us were sharing an avocado toast that looked really good. I will definitely be coming back to try the rest of their menu! They also have an afternoon tea set option too. As for drinks, I ordered the Rose Latte and my mom ordered a cappuccino (but their espresso machine was not working properly so it looked like a huge splat of espresso over steamed milk). The rose latte was really soothing but the huge chunks of rose petals made it a little weird to drink in my opinion. Like do I chew it or just swallow them straight down? Definitely check out this place if you're in Yorkdale whether it is to grab some macarons or just to sit down to relax and enjoy some tea (they have a huge selection of tea!) Treat yourself once in a while! read more

Ladurée - Macarons Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

I love macarons, so I welcomed Ladurée with open arms once it arrived to Yorkdale Mall. Ladurée is a very popular French luxury bakery and sweets maker house in Paris. They have several locations in France, and also worldwide, including London, Tokyo, Hong Hong, and more. I have been there on several occasion, and have tried quite a few of their flavors. Each time, I usually get the box of 8 for $26.50 (tax in), which is a little higher than other places in the GTA. However, I expect no less from a foreign brand when they open up in Toronto. It does taste a little different compared to the ones I had in Paris cause I think they do bake it fresh in France. I read it somewhere online. However, the flavors and fillings are comparable to the overseas Ladurée locations cause they do get the same products from France. The macarons from Ladurée are sweet, but it's not tooth numbing sweet. Also ,if you like cute aesthetics, then this place is definitely for you. It's ultra cute and very Instagrammable with lots of pink/purple tones. read more

Pros: Nice experience for afternoon tea Cons: Pricey for what you get Went here for afternoon tea with my wife on a day off. Laduree is nice experience if you're a fan of afternoon tea. It's not a place I would go to often as the prices are on the high side. Laduree is located in Yorkdale mall so you can take a nice little afternoon break from your shopping. We called in advance just in case, but if you're coming in on a weekday for afternoon tea, you won't have too much trouble getting a table. Afternoon tea is $50. As you can see from my pics, you get a good assortment of items for that price. You can also get other items like a club sandwich which is what I ordered. They have a pretty good selection of tea here. It's not as vast as other places I have been to but you won't hard up for variety here. The food items are all pretty well done and presented. My sandwich was presented well, but when you're eating it, it will become a little messy. I like that you don't have to have afternoon tea when you come here even if someone else with you is. Little choice is always a good thing. My main gripe is the price here. I've been to other afternoon teas where I've paid less and got a lot more. The items you get are great, just wish the quantity was a little better. My club sandwich was $20. It did come with a salad but for $20, you hope to get a little more from that. Overall, Laduree will give you a good experience for your afternoon tea. It just won't be a place you go frequently because of the prices. read more
