Yelp Review 2026 #164:…read more Take an American chain to another country and it's always better and nicer. I don't normally go out of my way to check out Krispy Kreme in other countries (unless it's at an airport or in Japan). This Krispy Kreme in Lausanne has more menu items and different kinds of doughnuts (like pistachio, strawberry glazed, biscoff). They have iced teas, matcha, different kinds of coffee. They have a section for merchandise: water bottles, tumblers, coffee cup, tote bags, shirts, caps, keychains, mugs, and socks. There's a dining area with lots of tables. The place is spotless. From the kitchen, the order counter to the dining area - it's super clean as if they just opened.

One weekly stop at this delicious restaurant to enjoy their incredibly fresh traditional sushi....I…read morehave been going to town just to enjoy sushi there. It was totally worth the trip every time. When I am abroad, I am missing having my affordable sushi fix here!

Yelp Review 2026 #161:…read more There are only 6 Jacot chocolate shops in Switzerland: Zürich, Lausanne and 4 other places. I first had their chocolates in Zürich so, I made sure I grab some more when I got to Lausanne. It's a few minutes away from Place de la Palud and Lausanne Cathedral in an area with lots of nice shops, cafes and restaurants. It's a very busy and crowded area. The lady behind the counter was attentive and friendly. She was giving the customers she's helping where they're from so she can connect with them. As she did with us and the people in front of us in line. She was giving us free samples and a bag of free chocolates after buying a lot of chocolates. The store was out of boxes so, you have to get the pre-selected boxes from the shelves. If you want specific truffles, she'll put them in a paper bag. I got multiple truffles: Maracaibo, pistachio, cafe, centenaire, tea time, milk chocolate and the heart shaped truffles (I can't remember what kind it was). They have Absinthe truffles that I didn't get to try in Zürich that I was still hesitant to try in Lausanne. They have chocolate bars from different cacao sources from Dominican Republic, South America, and Africa. Aside from chocolates, they also have fruit jellies.

Who doesn't want a pretzel to snack on while you shop…read more Happened to see this across the street while at C&A and had to stop by for a pretzel. Great service and awesome flavors. Stop by and grab one.

Yelp Review 2026 #159:…read more After checking leaving our backpacks at our hotel next door, we grabbed breakfast here. It looked promising because there was a lot of people. They have a nice assortment of sandwiches, pastries and sweet treats. It's a casual cafe that has about 8-10 tables. Locals reading newspaper while having a quick breakfast, and tourists. We got quiche and Nutella cannele. You can ask for your sandwich or quiche to be heated. The quiche hit the spot. The Nutella cannele was a sweet ending to the salty bacon from the quiche. Fleur de Pains has locations in towns along Lake Geneva. With that being said, don't expect artisanal products.

This is a large grocery store, which in addition to food, also carries some basic household goods…read moresuch as tools and pots. The selection is pretty good for food, but it seems many things are packaged for families. For example, you can't buy just one red onion; you need to buy an entire bag of them. Also the cheese selection is a weakness. They only had some mass produced feta that tasted awful. On the plus side, the location is convenient to reach by public transport, and there's free parking for a couple hours.

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!
