Envie de Pain - Saint-Louis

This bakery has been successful since it started a couple of years ago, but the quality of bread / croissants / brioches / sandwiches has always been bad. I cannot explain their obvious success: their products don't taste good, even when you get & eat...More

Friday morning, several customers at a time ,terraces operated. Two employees who manage. Yes I use this word, because the professional expression, whether by the face or the action could make believe in amateurism. tables on the outside un-branched for several minutes. the new customers wonder if you have to go back to be served and ask the employee behind the counter. answer: better ask inside to be served outdoors! What's the second employee doing? It puts the dishes clean. I also note that there is a lack of ashtray outside. knowing that it takes 12 years to a snails to disappear! a not easy trade that always asks the one who makes it smile and patience, because the customer who comes for the first time will keep it either a good or a bad memory. a lack of organisation is felt but you will be served with patience.

Ideal location for a coffee in a pleasant tea lounge with a croissant because sandwiches are really to avoid! I took a tuna that had a strong tidal smell, accompanied by three lanterns of translucent tomatoes (from the tomato to January!) with a leaf of fanned lettuce... and especially two unclean pucks of these industrial eggs! (if scaling a real hard egg represents an insurmountable workload, changed occupation)

There are 2 patisseries in St Louis. Right now the other one is under renovation so for now this place is number one. Situated within a stone's throw of the border with Switzerland at the end of the line of Tram no. 11.Provides a fine selection of freshly baked bread, cakes and savouries. Includes a cafe so you can relax and enjoy the produce without delay. Its popular & the service is individual so be prepared to queue.

We spent a few days on Saint-Louis. We enjoyed the breakfasts offered by this bakery: quality bread and pastries, home smoothie, pressed oranges, great choice of teas. the products offered for lunch have not disappointed us! crispy sandwiches, homemade hamburgers, various salads. The flan and cherry pie were also on top!
