The best bakeries France

Hold, I dream, it smells delicious cakes from Chanvillard pastry, located in Breeding-du-Lac and we honoured in the smart addresses of the year. The Sakura pastry bakery offers breads and cakes. As we're greedy, we noticed a pretty purple cake, a very colorful and fragrant verrine, small home ovens like pie in crust. Here we are still making a mounted piece on order.

This bakery faces the Combalou, and offers an interesting choice of breads. From baguette to sourdough bread, corn bread, stoneground or rye flour from French tradition or Label Rouge, this house also offers all its know-how to concoct little wonders like its pastries, quiches, puff pastries, fouace, flaune or other delicious take-away food. Simple, good and smiling... The punchline chosen by this address suits it like a glove: "L'Espigal, the bread that delights you".

This epicurean bakery has nothing ordinary. Certified 100% organic by Ecocert, the choice of the suppliers is done on producers working according to the principles of a responsible agriculture. The raw materials are seasonal, the flours of grinding stone are resulting from French organic wheat, the AOP butter and salt come from Guérande. Here, the flours are diversified (wheat, German wheat, khorasan, buckwheat, corn, rye and rice) accompanied by flax seeds, pumpkin, sunflower and sesame. Just like their composition, the presentation of the products is neat. The bakery also offers some snacks for the students and has a small organic delicatessen with the sale of flours, teas, compotes and artisanal fruit juice manufactured in an organic farmhouse. Inspired by their experiments abroad and in France, Celine and Bastien manufacture original products: bread with cocoa for the gourmands, Norwegian bread with seeds and fruits for the curious ones... More classical but also delicious, the gingerbread and the Vendean braided brioche. Quality and flavour guaranteed for a fashionable bakery!

This bakery-pastry-chocolate shop will accompany you in the discovery of local specialties such as the gold medal-winning Lorraine pâté in 2019 or the Pavés du faubourg. Nicolas, Anaïs and their team are busy delighting you with homemade products and the use of high quality ingredients, such as the twice awarded almond cream galette des rois. Fine pastries, sweets, homemade chocolate candies, sandwiches, seasonal dishes of the day, petit fours... everything is there for a small or large snack, whether you are "sweet" or "salty", go there with your eyes closed!

The great chefs, pastry chefs and chocolate makers of France and elsewhere swear by Valrhona, the benchmark in chocolate. The house was founded in 1922 and the brand was born in 1947. Here, alongside the production workshop, you can compose your own box of chocolates, choose your own dessert, taste the new products... You can be sure that these delights are made from chocolate pods from the best plantations in the world. Dare to try them hot or cold, as sweets, with coffee or as an aperitif... We will forgive you all your excesses!

We come here and we come back. Unable to resist kouign aman, to the far Breton, to gingerbread or to this Blanc Sablon to the fruits of passion, all is temptation, and it's so good! Conquétoise wand, black rye bread…

100% organic, 100% gourmet, good bread does not run in bakeries. Hauts les Pains stands out not only for the gustative qualities, the crispy or soft textures of its breads, but also for the healthy ingredients that Pascal Coutaz, an architect, used in his first life, wanted to make a reality of his desire for a better world in every sense of the word. His sourdough is natural, his organic flours, small spelt, Khorasan, rye, wheat, rice, buckwheat with typical flavours come from a local farmer-miller.

Here, everything is homemade, whether it is the bread, the pastries, the coffee or the soup. One appreciates by greediness the Nutella croissant, and one savors the cupcakes, tarts and other brioches. The creations alternate between lemon pie, strawberry, opera or small savory pies and sandwiches of the month. An example? A beet, horseradish cream and black forest ham in a Tradition bread. Catering service to try as well. The delights of the store can be ordered in volume for your banquets and receptions.

The artisan-pastry-confectioners, Sebastien and Murielle craftsmen will propose their house macaroons, their broyés of the Poitou pure butter and their succulent Florentine with almonds and gingerbread. As a chocolate question, our craftsmen are not at rest because they propose their famous Pavé Pavé based on nougatine, chocolate and orange. On the bakery, a mix of bread bread meets more original scents such as fig bread or corn bread. But the most positive thing is the possibility of offering pastries for those who have food allergy problems. Thank you for thinking about them.

Since 2012, this attic has been delighting us with homemade and artisanal recipes, with all kinds of breads, tasty pastries, and good little cakes, such as their Breton speciality, the famous kouign-amann. Here the atmosphere is good-natured, like the two acolytes Philippe and Stéphan, with a smile on their lips and a twinkle in their eye. Good choice of hot or cold sandwiches but also a salad bar (you pay by weight). And as if that wasn't enough, they concoct two small homemade hot dishes for you every day, there's something for everyone!

It is only a few steps away from the famous Notre-Dame church owl that you will find this delicious bakery well known by the Dijon inhabitants. Very elegant, with a modern space, the bakery does not only offer bread but also many exclusive specialties. Here it is with the family that we work and it is with a certain pride that the Blanchard couple saw Charly obtain the diploma of best young baker of the department. The customers, young and old, are not mistaken and know that they can come and get their breakfast as well as their lunch or snack at 4pm. Colourful entrees that revisit the great classics, biscuits, cakes and cookies (a real delight!) attract the gourmands. The creations follow the seasons, with for example numerous savoury shortbreads for the aperitif: truffles, epoisses or even mustard from Fallot. During the festive season, the Logs compete with inventiveness to enchant the desserts of refined dinners. Ideas are numerous and so are novelties, note the arrival of spelt bread and Edelweiss, an adorable cake with almonds, vanilla cream and chopped nougatine. A temple of gluttony!

Here, local suppliers are preferred. Flours are made at the Decollogne mill in Aiserey, in Côte-d'Or. This true artisan miller has been offering exceptional flours since 1840! For their part, the "Atelier du boulanger" shops, located in different parts of Dijon and its agglo, offer you a warm and industrial decor made of noble materials such as iron, stone and wood. L'Atelier du Boulanger makes and kneads about twenty specialties according to traditional recipes. The workshop's wand is part of the house's success and is made from Label Rouge flour. This appellation guarantees in particular the use of wheat carefully selected for its baking quality and the absence of insecticide treatments during the storage phase of these latter. You can also find a wide range of organic and special breads. You will have understood, L'Atelier du Boulanger's shops offer their customers excellent products in keeping with traditional rules!

Tradition, tradition. Lots of good things in this artisan bakery at the beginning of Fesch street. Several types of breads, au, cereals, mare, chestnut flour, Easter cacavelli, imbrucciata, finuchietti, blettes, onions, and the whole range of local specialities. This is the meeting place for all the Ajacciens in the neighborhood that comes here every morning.

Quality homemade bread, it is rare enough to underline it. In addition to traditional baguettes, you can enjoy different varieties of special breads like the bread with figs and chestnuts, traditional baguettes of all sorts that smell as good as they are delicious. You will not be left out for sweet food desires with especially the pie with blueberries, red fruit, and fresh fruit according to the season.

Alex Croquet is a real enthusiast and describes himself as a bread nut! He likes to offer his customers breads that are rich in taste, with a creamy crumb. A real delight. He has chosen to ban chemical additives to have breads that fully express their tastes, textures and aromas. In addition to organic breads, he offers red label flour breads, brioches, cakes, puddings, croissants, pains au chocolat, muffins, pies and other pastries. And the prices are very reasonable for products of this quality!

La Petite Marquise is a bakery that makes our mouths water with its pastries, cakes and variety of organic breads! The talented baker has even won several awards from the Indre-et-Loire federation of artisan bakers and confectioners. The products are made on the spot by the whole team. Gourmets and food lovers will therefore come and enjoy an éclair or a sweet or savoury tartlet, as well as filling up on pastries for breakfast or an afternoon snack. They will also linger in front of the selection of chocolates.

It is one of the institutions of the city. And we come a long way to choose its traditional wand, large campaign bread, organic or semi-complete bread… Breakfast is not bad either because the house has several times received the ^first prize of the best growing Vaucluse. You can enjoy it at the tea lounge. At lunchtime, we have the choice: sandwiches, quiches, pizzas, compound salads and some hot dishes.

Roland Feuillas is more than just a baker. Going up to Cucugnan and tasting his bread is a path that transforms you, and not just for your taste buds. Here, the emphasis is on ethics and quality, with the aim of offering "healthy" flours and breads. Our wheat is grown organically, we work exclusively with ancient seed varieties, and everything is stone-ground. A perfect blend of tradition, health and taste. The bread can be kept for a week.

Excellent bakery of Nouan the Fuzelier! Here the pastries are particularly delicious. And let us not forget the confectionery that includes small marvels of sweets! Bread and pastries: it is simply exceptional! In short, on St. Martin's square and on the square of Nouan the Fuzelier in general, Claude Fouquiau's bakery is simply the best! The staff were very friendly and helpful. An address where you come every day in a good mood!

In their two stores, Jordan and Mathieu and in Vichy Vincenzo and Alex make old wheat breads with natural leavening, the 2 Brothers signature baguettes and the absolute organic one, farmhouse breads, pointed baguettes, rye pies from Auvergne, large pieces including their famous old-fashioned bread of more than 15 kg sold by weight, with an amber crumb and a malt aroma. Every Saturday: stone bread made from local sourdough flour flavored with honey. Range of sandwiches made with meat, cheese and fish. Range of pastries, pastries and snacks.

At the head of this establishment recently installed in Tours, two friends, Philippe Comte and Marc-Antoine Bosquet. They have a good track record: best croissant in Indre-et-Loire in 2019, best king's cake in 2020 and semi-finalists in the program The Best Bakery in France 2021 on M6. You can go there with your eyes closed, the store offers products from virtuous channels and a range of breads from organic farming. Various breads, pastries, sandwiches, everything is of high quality, and we come back!

Naoto Hirose and Paul Petersen create fresh, original Ecocert-certified products. The former hails from Japan, the latter from Alsace. Maison Hirose, their bakery and patisserie in Colmar, delights the taste buds of gourmets and gourmands with a wide range of breads and viennoiseries offering incomparable flavours. And when it comes to pastries, it's Byzantium! Sublime Éclairs, tangy lemon tarts, Paris-Brest revisited in a version... Paris-Tokyo filled with azuki compote and matcha green tea cream. We can't get enough!

Jessica Kruth is a real enthusiast who always welcomes you with a smile in her beautiful store. If the pastries here are beautiful and excellent, they also reflect the values of the pastry chef: regional products or PDO, fruits from the market, pastries to eat on the go but of great quality, all homemade with love and passion... Bulles Gourmandes is also a responsible pastry shop that works in partnership with small local producers. Each new season is an opportunity to taste unique creations

Friends since childhood, Théo and Christian (a pastry chef by profession) run this tea/pastry shop, which also doubles as a bakery. All products are 100% home-made, local and organic. Don't miss the house specialty: their suave lemon meringue pie, a pure delight for any true gourmand. Every Saturday, you can enjoy a brunch à l'assiette, and on Sundays, an all-you-can-eat buffet brunch based on a well-defined theme. A lovely address for epicureans!

This bakery-pastry shop, with a beautiful back room for eating and drinking, offers classic pastries, sandwiches for the hungry, but above all a very extensive range of organic breads at extremely reasonable prices. Among the products on offer and carefully presented, you can choose between: Norwegian bread, kougelhopfs or even strawberry and chocolate pastries... From the moment you enter, the display and the atmosphere will seduce you! The welcome in this shop is very friendly and the decoration is trendy and cosy. Don't hesitate to stop by, no doubt you'll want to come back!

This recent bakery welcomes gourmands in a cosy and warm atmosphere, with a smiling team. On the bread side, note the traditional baguette, made with local flours from Forez. Other specialties (roasted corn, khorazan ...) await you. The pastries are also home-made, including puff pastry. As for pastries, where everything is also made on the spot, you won't miss the "pâté forézien", with apples or custard cream, pear and chocolate chips... And for the Epiphany, discover the beans honouring some of the monuments of Saint-Etienne, from the Saint-Charles cathedral to the Puits Couriot!

The company's reputation is well established. You'll find dozens of sweet and savoury "cocas" - Catalan focaccias - each more appetizing than the last. You'll be warmly welcomed by Annie and Guy, who will show you the wealth of their local know-how. The list of specialties is as rich as the stories behind them. Le Meunier Catalan also offers a wide selection of rustic sourdough and organic breads. A must-visit address for a slice of gourmet goodness.

It's worth waiting until the end of the week and getting up early (there won't be enough for everyone), to savor the breads of Bastien Malugani. A committed baker who puts his heart and soul into his work. High-quality raw materials: pure organic cereal flour, unrefined Guérande salt, churned butter... The tedious work is made up of tricks of the hand, know-how and a raw, refined passion to be shared between two bags of flour. The Canuses baguettes are magical, as are the traboules, the seasonal fruit tarts to die for, as are the kouign-amann or kannelbullar and the croissants that would get anyone out of bed.

The stomach gurgles with puff pastry buns, vanilla puddings, homemade cakes, fruit tarts, macaroons, vacherins, bacon, chorizo or chicken strings, Vosges flutes... But what has above all built the house's reputation is its pâté lorrain, which won first prize, as did the vegetable pie (pepper-chicken), the pure butter galette des rois and the traditional baguette, which won second prize. To be savoured without detouring.

This gourmet address downtown is an institution founded in 1856. We love the door handle in the shape of a Swiss, the Valence cookie man. Its beautiful window opens onto a scent of orange blossom that flavors the two house specialties, flagships of Valence gastronomy, the pogne and the suisse, which come in different sizes. The Swiss refers to the Swiss guards of Pope Pius VI, who died in Valencia in 1799. Also: chocolates, nougats, saint-genix, cakes, pastries and a collection of breads.

Sabine opens the bakery (and press office) at 6am. You will find various home-made breads and pastries, the famous pastis landais, brioche or long pastis, and above all, discover the Petit Futé, the lemon cake. It really looks like a homemade cake, well puffed up, a little bit browned. This is the work of the baker Alain. Soft and fragrant paste. At first glance, it is difficult to distinguish whether it is orange or lemon. A little advice, cut it into thin slices to accompany the coffee and, if there is any left over, freeze it: after a light toasting, the result is spectacular, it is as good as the day you bought it. Here's a bakery that's worth the detour.

In the immediate vicinity of the Pasteur Hospital, this is one of the many Toulorge bakeries in the urban area. Open non-stop all day long (and from very early in the morning!), it is also open on weekends until Sunday noon, its closing day being Tuesday. You will find all the wonders that the house offers in its various points of sale in the city.

In 2007, after a career change, Didier decided to set up his own bakery to produce quality products using organic ingredients. The sourdough bread is kneaded by hand and baked in a wood-fired oven. In Didier's bakery, we rediscover the flavors of yesteryear. You'll be able to taste "cotancinettes", a kind of breadstick, lemon and orange breads and many other specialties. You can find these delicious products by ordering them online or by visiting one of our drop-off points. Didier takes his deliveries by the back door.

A small queue at rush hour: the success of this bakery is not only due to its beautiful location but also to the continuous flow of fresh bread. Faithful to the entire chain of the same name, the Dijon bakery produces quality bread whose flours are mostly organic. The breads with a crispy crust are reminiscent of the breads of bakeries of yesteryear with the sweet scent of fresh sourdough. Beaujolais bread, bread made with chestnut, rye, honey and hazelnut flour, spelt crown... Whether traditional or special, the baker who makes them prefers wholemeal flours and sourdough dough; he likes to praise the quality of his suppliers and the care taken in baking. Moreover, the formulas proposed at lunchtime are convincing: burgers and other varied sandwiches or generous quiches are added to a pastry for copious lunch breaks. A beautiful address for beautifully made products.

The pretty facade located in the heart of the long avenue François Mitterrand, next to a wine shop, catches the eye. One pushes the door of this slightly cramped but very greedy famous sign. It is the multicoloured macaroons and pastries that attract our attention, even if you will also find some varieties of bread (cereals, rye, white,...) as well as the great classics of pure butter pastries. In 2019, Baba É'clair's croissants won the gold medal. A nice reward that's worth a few deviations from the diet, isn't it?

Sanilhac is a charming village with a secret boot: a baker, Antoine, who loves his profession above all, who has almost forgotten knowledge, conviviality and a rare service. It is a bakery, as well as a pastry, a tea salon, a glacier, a small restoration and the rental of atvs and VTC. It occupies a long building completely renovated in front of the town hall square. The bright space has kept its beautiful stone stones and ceiling beams, several rooms and a large terrace. The specialty is the hand-shaped sanilhacoise wand in stone crushed rye flour. He participated with 5 other bakers in the Duchy of Uzès in the elaboration of the figatine, brioche to olive oil with candied figs and éclats of nougatine. The custard is the Tropézienne. By far, we are short for this brioche to the orange flower and to the sweet cream and parfumée custard. Passionate about his craft, Antoine will tell you about sacristains, fougasses, laminated, gâteaux cakes raspberry, apples cooked in the oven, apricot. It is inexhaustible on this issue.

After a century without a baker, the village of Montsegur saw the arrival of Cyril Delmas, a local child, as "blessed bread" in 2014. Cyril is more than a baker and built his own oven like a cast iron model from the 1900s. He shapes and bakes his bread the old-fashioned way, with beech wood, sourdough, organic flours, ground by stone millstones and Montcalm mineral water! Is it necessary to specify that this bread is a real delight? It can also be found on the tables of many excellent restaurants in the Ariège.

Franck Dépériers, Meilleur Ouvrier de France, uses only selected flours without any additives and with a lot of natural and organic leaven. A true enthusiast who does not count his hours to give pleasure to his customers and transmit his know-how to his team! The dough is kneaded very little, but ferments for a long time in order to obtain a dough rich in taste and aroma. The flagship products of the house remain the organic boule, the torchon, an organic bread made of different flours, which goes perfectly with foie gras, the market batch, a sourdough baguette, the farmhouse bread which keeps its softness and freshness all week long or the apricotines and seiglitons, rye bread rolls filled with raisins As for the pastries and cakes, you will be surprised by the unavoidable Nantais cake (perfectly rhumy), the delicious honey and mirabelle plum tart, the plum pies or the admirably flaky croissants! Let's not forget the confectionery (marshmallows, fruit jellies, caramels from another world...) or the wonderful home-made jams. And what about sandwiches and other quiches to enjoy at lunch time. Don't miss the Christmas logs or the "galettes des rois" which are really worth the detour (it is highly recommended to reserve them). La Petite Boulangerie also has a stall at the Talensac market.

This bakery has its secret, its secret boot: organic bread, tradition, and an offer of delicious breads. From the bread farm to the crown, from adjacent to chestnut bread, from the great complete to the flax bread or to the quinoa, the choice is so wide, the quality so serious, that the greedy ones are always annoyed. Whole or sliced, the breads all envy. At the end of the service, you may be offered a loaf of bread so that you don't get lost. A more friendly and friendly gesture as the reception at Panissain is always warm and caring. Even when the queue is close to kilometers…

Recognised as a "quality artisan producer" in 2020 by the Collège Culinaire de France, Tartines d'Autrefois continues its fine reputation, and the district proves it by its loyalty. The welcome here is friendly, the know-how is here, old-fashioned and in the tradition. French home-made bread, Mitronette baguette (made with "Label Rouge" flour), seed, corn or seaweed breads, Muesli, Pavé d'Augustin or Pagnou make people happy in the Saint-Marc district, and their pastries and fine tarts sparkle and make your eyes sparkle. Émilie Lallemand and Édouard Lenoc are talented, and their aperitif strings, burgers and pizzas are most appetizing.

This well-known bakery on Rue Jaurès offers its specialities in a welcoming setting. In addition to the traditional snacks (paninis, sandwiches, hot dogs, salads, quiches of the day), they offer excellent "snack" breads. Their pastry is to die for. We fell in love with the lemon dome tartlet, the mille-feuille with a crème brûlée cover, or the naughty blueberry. They also offer three organic breads (tourte meule, tourte seigle and petit épeautre), and everything is made on site.

If you pass by the shopping street "rue du Temple" and you see a queue in front of a small bakery, nothing is wrong: this is where you will certainly find the best breads in the city. And not only... Viennese pastries, tarts and pastries, sandwiches and other savory delights are just as excellent. Above all, when you enter here, you will discover the sweets concocted by Alexis Peuzin. A baker who, in January 2023, was awarded the Coupe de France de boulangerie at the SIRHA gastronomic show in Lyon!

The house participated in the show " La Meilleure boulangerie de France" on M6 and was ranked among the top 10. For Patrick Doucet, bread is a passion. For more than 25 years, he has been defending the French tradition and know-how in this field. He selects his flours with the greatest care with the sole aim of offering you authentic breads. On the sweet side, the artisan-creator offers pies and cakes with original flavors. Exigence, quality and authenticity are the pillars of the philosophy of the master Doucet!

A green front, yellow letters, a singular perfume which emanates from the bakery, welcome to Henri's! In the respect of the artisanal tradition, this bakery proposes you a great variety of traditional and organic breads. As good purists, Henri and his wife make multiple leavens (wheat, rye, spelt...) to give their breads a unique taste. Everything is thought to separate the making of traditional breads from organic breads in order to respect the protocols of use. Here, time is relative because to make good bread, it is necessary to take time and to shape it with the pleasure to offer the best to its customers.

This bakery has an attractive bistro/tea room, most of which is housed in a superb glass roof. Here, you can enjoy a sweet and savoury breakfast, lunch or afternoon tea, as well as brunches on Fridays and Saturdays. All products are made on site with local ingredients: freshly baked breads, viennoiseries, pastries and small dishes. Recognition: BizKot took part in the 2019 "Best Bakery" competition on M6, reaching the semi-finals of the Grand-Est region after taking^1st place in Alsace!
