    Stumbled across this little gem while in the heart of downtown Ann Arbor! Le Bon is more than macarons. They serve Rowsters French press coffee and espresso, fresh scones Thursday-Sunday, as well as French and Italian sodas made with their hand-crafted fruit puree. The cafe is beautifully decorated and super inviting. The staff is friendly and quick to serve. A great spot for a bestie catchup or afternoon tea.

    Absolutely favorite place to stop at in Ann Arbor! This place is ungodly adorable! From the little gifts to the bright colored macarons, this place is a social media managers dream. The macaroons are some of the best I've had in Michigan they have the classic flavors and ones that rotate in and out with the seasons! I highly recommend

    I didn't think I liked macarons until I tried these. The macarons are so light and delicious. The shop is super cute. They have a couple tables to sit inside. They serve coffee drinks as well. My favorite flavor is hazelnut. These make the cutest gift.

    I've officially tried every macaron place in metro detroit. I've been reserving judgment until I tried Le Bon. Verdict at the bottom. I've been wanting to try this place for years. Since back when they were one of the only macaron places in town. The place was very cute. Very "we serve macarons here". Reminded me of is Laudree painted their walls white and toned it down a little. Service was friendly. The macarons were!..........alright. As a self proclaimed macaron connoisseur, I look for 3 things: texture, flavor, appearance. Some of their macarons had all 3. Some had only 2. The lack of consistency is what took away points for me. I tried: Special flavor: Yuzu PB&J Raspberry rose Almond Blue moon Matcha And the last one I forgot the name. It was something and champagne I think. I started with Yuzu- 2/3 (cute, good texture, no flavor) Almond 3/3 PB&J 3/3 but didn't really taste the J Something and champagne 2/3 (no flavor) Blue moon 3/3 Raspberry rose 2/3 (no flavor) Matcha 2/3 (no flavor- this one really hurt cuz I love matcha anything) The texture was decent but it wasn't special or unique. It's the same texture pretty much everyone else has. While a couple had nice flavors, none of them wowed. None of the macarons told me I needed to make the trip and come back. So now with all my macaron adventures, who is officially the best? (In my opinion of course) Le Detroit Macaron in Hamtramck. Very consistent. In all 3.

    Gorgeous cafe and their macarons are delish! Love the wide variety of flavors they have to choose from.

    Cute macaron shop in downtown Ann Arbor. We bought their standard pack of 6 for $15. Service was very friendly as well.

    If you are in the Kerrytown craving a small sweet, Le Bon Macaron is the perfect place to grab a macaron or two. You can also get a kettle full of tea here for $5 or some coffee to enjoy with your macarons! PEAR MACARON - 2.35 I only wanted one macaron and there were so many on this display that looked delectable. The pear stood out to me because of the gold printed on top of a sea foam green cookie that made it eye catching and aesthetic. It was a bit too sweet for me but definitely an enjoyable treat that satisfied my sweet cravings this afternoon. The pear flavor was very evident and enjoyable. Overall, pretty $$$ but I'd recommend giving it a try. I will definitely try more macarons next time and enjoy them with a pot of tea.

    cute atmosphere, craft beverages, always a variety of macarons, and an easy location to find considering it's ann arbor

    Absolutely darling little shop! Definitely worth a quick stop if you are in downtown Ann Arbor. The space is tiny, but decorated in a delightful tea party chic kind of way. You'll get plenty of pics for your Instagram in this place! The staff was very friendly and they also do a nice job of listing out dietary restrictions for each type of macaron (Note: the majority are gluten free and the exceptions are clearly marked). The macarons themselves are generally quite good, although some flavors I think are more successful than others. The presentation of the macarons is perfect! They all look stunning. Le Bon Macaron has a TON of flavor options, although not every flavor will be available every day. Overall, I would say that the majority of their macarons are very sugary/sweet. When we went we got a variety to taste: -Matcha - you could generally taste the matcha flavor, but it was really drowned out by the intense sugary-ness of the macaron 6/10 -Raspberry - a classic. Very good! 10/10 -Mexican Chocolate - this one has cayenne pepper in it, which definitely comes through in the end. pretty good! 8/10 -Speculoos - this did not taste like speculoos remotely. This one just did not work for me 2/10 If I were to return to Le Bon Macaron, I would probably stick with the more traditional macaron flavors. Overall, glad I stopped by this place and would recommend it!

    Small cafe with a beautifully photogenic decor. The line can be a little long when people cannot decide which of the many flavors of macaron they want. Friendly and bright environment for an afternoon break with some drinks and sweets.

    Place: This place is probably the cutest place to sit down with your friend and catch up. The space is smaller so it is probably best if you go in twos. However, I have seen bridal parties take place here too. Service: The service is really good and they try to make sure you get the best price for your stay. It is more expensive so when we were going to get 2 cups of tea the employee told us getting a pot of tea would be better! Super thoughtful and nice! Extra bonus points :) Food/price: The food is sweet and delicious. It is a dessert place and more finger foods so this is post-dinner kind of place. $$ It is pretty expensive but worth once in awhile when you want to celebrate graduation or a special meet up. For example a box of macaroons (6 in a box) is $14... but still really good :)

    10/10 macarons, 10/10 aesthetic! It's a beautiful, reasonably priced place to get coffee and macarons! The girls working are also very nice and accommodating!! I was asked a couple times just to make sure she got my coffee the way I wanted it, which I really appreciated! Highly recommend!!

    They have one of the best hot chocolates I've had in the area! It was creamy and thick, but not too sweet! The inside is also super cute.

The woman working today was very helpful. Although I declined, she was willing to pack their dog-friendly white chocolate bone in bubble wrap to take on the flight home. They had run out of their prepackaged dark chocolate truffles, so she suggested that I pick and choose from the display as it was the same price. I definitely plan to come back if I happen to stay near the mall in the future.

The service is friendly, if not a little too watchful of your perusal however the food is both bold and mute. What I mean by that is for each of the flavors you either have too strong of a flavor or too light of a flavor. For instance let's take a look at two classic fudge flavors, peanut butter and chocolate, the chocolate is far too strong as if there is too much cocoa powder and the peanut butter it too light tasting mostly of powdered sugar instead of peanut butter. Not to say it isn't inedible ( that would be a 1 star review) but with how strong the flavors are it isn't preferable. This applies to all the flavors and other items as well. The other items such at the truffles are hard, not due to anything like nuts but because the chocolate isn't made to be soft yet stable. Getting something like Lindt truffles from a grocery store far beat out the truffles here unfortunately. This trend is continued with the other items available as well, nothing hits the spot and is either too strong or too weak in flavor and texture.

The location itself is essentially a house. The entire business is spread across the different sections of the house. It's a bit unusual when you first walk in, but you very quickly grow fond of it, due to the ties that the business has to the family that started it, in that very house. The core is exactly what you would expect, very homey type of vibes. We received an educational session at the beginning. After that, we proceeded with the chocolate making experience. It was unlike anything that I've done in the past, and it was wonderful for myself and my coworkers who were there as part of a work retreat. We had a wonderful time, seeing the process behind the scenes and walking out with our own delicious chocolate bars that we made ourselves.

There were plenty of samples throughout the presentation! You learn so much about chocolate and the process to make it. The truffle making process was fun and you get plenty of options for toppings to roll them in! I forget how many we were meant to make per person but there was enough for everyone to make quite a few extras and cute little boxes to place them in. Overall a really fun experience and Alicia was super knowledgeable, friendly, and funny throughout the whole process. They also have plenty of their chocolate for sale during and after the class. They have so many different types and flavors as well as lots of seasonal ones as well. Their chocolate is on the pricier side - but it truly is of exceptional quality and ethically made so definitely well worth it. Would definitely recommend doing one of their workshops/classes!
