The best bakeries Normandy

No, no, the croissants are not gold. The prices applied are the same as in other bakeries, but the gold is in his hands, I.-P. Breed. In fact, he has such skill to prepare wonderful pastries and pastries. Not to mention his extraordinary rye breads, campaign, leaven, cereals and all of his other breads to sausage, sesame, onions… that break a little hunger in mid-afternoon. And, when you add that the whole thing is cooked with wood fire and a lot is waiting for schoolchildren out of school at about 16 p.m., you can only feel a desire to go back and return there.

Every day, this bakery does its utmost to offer many varieties of bread and pastries, all the while following the seasons. In spring, Magnolia tart, chocolate, and fruit desserts will be in the spotlight, while in autumn, you will find a tart decorated with apples, apricots, and many other seasonal fruits... You can also find the Picardy cake, very rare in the region, as well as the butter cake, another specialty of Délices Normands. The shop also offers delicious Easter and Christmas chocolates as well as macaroons with diverse and original tastes. A feast for the eyes!

In the heart of the small shopping centre of Pont-Marais, the bakery is the meeting and supply place of this district of Tourlaville. We cross here many people in the neighbourhood, and this small place of shopping is very pleasant. We're going to go without hesitation in this bakery, as in the other outlets of the sign, for the freshness of the products, bread and pastries, everything is good!

The Établissement Meier was the perfect place for the chocolate maker. After long months of work, the Coudray Époux completely transformed the legendary address - very well known to all the Rouennais and all the passengers from the station - to make it a popular and popular address, but of another kind. For proof, this lovely tea lounge/space salad of midday, which benefits from a resolutely contemporary garden. Quality is also good here: breads, small furnaces, macaroons, so many different homemade products that recall the know-how of Yvonne, the grandmother of Emilie Coudray, a stylist in Rouen in between wars. A few metres from the train station, a beautiful wine shop to discover and rediscover. And soon, an online ordering shop.

Very well known in Le Havre, Doorman offers a variety of 80% daily special breads, based on rye or cereals, bacon cubes, nuts or grapes, without forgetting old and traditional baguettes, which account for the manufacturing. In the new configuration of the shop, customers see the manufacture of bread with a sliding door open onto the oven, also brand new, and artisan work. On the side of the Pâtisseries, the clientele is drawn by the goose of Gascony - stretched dough in which the fruits are cooked to steam, and the white and white chocolate duo, as well as the feuillantine to the praline. Doorman is also specialised in chocolates and features chocolate candy, special casts for great occasions, but also cakes, tarts and pastries.

At the Petit Futé, we like this bakery: artisanal production, organic bread with natural leaven, Olivier Gestin knows how to delight our taste buds with tasty recipes. From the traditional to the corn baguette and the country loaf, it's not easy to decide. Come in and you'll surely succumb! Even for lunch, the choice will be difficult! And we are delighted to see it open on Saturday mornings, perfect for the little munchies when you get out of the pool!

French breakfast means: baguette, croissant and pain au chocolat. And that's where Yan and Pauline come in, since they took over the bakery 2 years ago, "the cherry on top of the breakfast cake": the chocolate praline bread! To try it is to adopt it. Viennese pastries, pastries, especially the Grand-Mère flan, the old-fashioned way with cream and wooden circle. The bread will also delight you: red label flour, natural yeast. Last but not least: the burger buns that will ensure a round of applause at home during the meal.

Ideally located in the city centre, at a crossroads and small farms, the Star's Viennuts is unmistakable. A constant queue attests to the success of hot or cold sandwiches, pastries, thums and sweets. It comes to search for its daily tradition, its complete bread or its tradition. But also pastries for the delight of gourmets. Macarons, almond chocolate breads, fine apple pie, hubs, cookies, pancakes, but also Cherbourgeois, everything is invited to the greedy! Traditional seeds or fruit sticks are also a treat! In the beautiful days, Italian ice cream makes its entrance! You understand that, whatever your desire, Little Jean will delight you! You can find it in the provinces, the Eléis and the Saline!

Good bakeries are always a discovery, and with this one, we're on the verge of excellence! Freshly baked bread that smells delicious (the bûcheron and the nordique are to die for!), viennoiseries, pure butter brioches, but also a choice of savoury snacks for lunch breaks and, icing on the cake (in a bakery, that's not bad, by the way), oriental pastries, each more tempting than the last. All served with a smile, a kind word and sometimes, often even, a complimentary chouquette for the road. We want more!

A very good address held by two young passionate friends, Louis and Vincent put their heart into it with organic ingredients and a lot of brio! An oven, a kneading trough, leavening, a turn of hand and here is a nice range of special breads (Nordique, Richemond, Graines de copains) and pastries that will delight your taste buds! As for pastries, we focus on sobriety with classics (éclairs, seasonal tarts...). And we don't forget the small hungers with sandwiches and coffee!

Halfway between a bakery and a snack bar, the Ami du Pain, which already had a sign on the heights of the town, in the delegated municipality of La Glacerie, has another establishment in the commercial zone in the west of the conurbation. The principle remains the same: easy access, fresh products, low prices. From bread to daily specials, from pastries to viennoiseries, nothing is missing, and many dishes of the day are also offered. You can also have a snack directly on the spot.

Rooted in tradition since its foundation in 1952, Boulangerie Lepenant is a true local institution. This family-run establishment, passed from hand to hand over six decades, continues to delight its regulars with its breads, viennoiseries and, above all, the famous mirliton, the town's unmissable specialty. Under Nicolas's leadership, the bakery embodies artisanal excellence, with a focus on quality and authentic taste. With the aim of perpetuating its know-how, the team lives to the rhythm of workshops and meetings with customers.

In the city centre, this bakery pastry offers you, in addition to its remarkable bakery and sweet products, something to eat on the go: sandwiches, toasts, pan bagnats or fresh pizzas, and even pasta that you can garnish with a sauce of your choice. On the way to your travels, you will be happy to find it at lunch, or in the morning for hot croissants, which will be waiting for you from 6:30am!

La Maison du Pain is a bakery. It offers a variety of bakery and pastry products. La Maison du Pain is registered as a boulangerie and boulangerie-pâtisserie. It should be noted that there are other businesses with the same name in different towns in France, but this one is specifically located in Évreux.

A country bakery-pastry shop as we like them, on the village square, where Jérôme Simplotoffers the great classics of bread, but also pastries and golden pastries. The artisan baker also stands out thanks to his specialty, the Hauvillaise, a crispy baguette with a refined taste.

Near the tourist office, in the city centre, Les Saveurs de Gaillon will offer you their bakery and pastry products for your greatest pleasure: chocolate bread, butter croissant, apple turnover, Viennese baguette, chouquettes, but also éclairs, tarts or paris-brest...

What a gem! Vivien Le Sénéchal took over this bakery two years ago and remodelled it in his own image, whether it be the decor or the products and their quality. Here everything is fresh and homemade, from the mayo to the chicken cooked on the spot to the salted butter caramel. We recommend the zebra bread (with coal and corn) as beautiful as good or the macaroons. As for the croissants, they are to die for! Listening to his customers, he adapts to their requests to concoct new recipes like this cookie without hazelnuts or almonds. At the top!

A bakery that stays busy from morning till night - doesn't that smell good? Both literally and figuratively! It's one of the best in Caen! Everything is delicious, from the Tradition to the honey sourdough baguette and the gluten-free recipe. There's also a wide choice of sandwiches, grignettes (sweet or savoury mini-ficelles), pizzas, quiches... On the sweet side, we fall for their pink praline brioche every time! And the viennoiseries, tarts, etc., are a real "killer". In short, it's hard to leave with only your baguette under your arm!

It's really great to have a bakery open 24 hours a day! At La Huche caennaise, you can pick up your bread at 3 am if you like! Just a stone's throw from the port, you won't want to miss this electric blue storefront. Is it a case of crazy opening hours, three shifts or time running out? This is the address to remember, offering fresh bread and other delicacies to everyone, from Thursday morning to Sunday, whatever the time of day. What's more, the products are very good. How's that for a good plan?

Held as a cooperative society, this bakery is an adventure 100% made in Normandy, combining the know-how of two talented craftsmen with the desire to offer local and quality products. Today, the bakery has such a reputation that almost all Normans know Osmont bread, a tasty traditional sourdough bread. In addition to the various varieties of bread, you will also have the opportunity to enjoy delicious pastries, homemade viennoiseries and a wide selection of homemade cakes. All products are organic.

In eastern Caen, in the "leavening sun", Pain Vivant is making its mark on the bread-making landscape. Here, Diego passionately blends boldness and tradition. Boldness, in his determination to work almost exclusively with short-distance suppliers, and in his choice of long fermentation. Tradition, for his wood-fired oven and his own mill, but also for the use of home-made natural sourdough. Our breads, brioches and viennoiseries have a taste for authenticity. Don't miss the vanilla flan or the New York rolls!

In front of the village church you can supply yourself with brasillés. Do not hesitate to freeze to get back to your loved ones, if you are not at the corner: it's always good! Of course, the bakery also sells all kinds of breads and pastries, and the reception that is found there adds to its status as an essential one. Furthermore, it is possible to provide it in teurgoule, on pre-order.

Quoted several times better workers in France, Bertrand Durell just launched at Le Havre - and it is the only one in Haute-Normandie on the day that these lines are written - the Bagatelle Baguette, first bread on the market to have received the Red Label, awarded by the Ministry of Agriculture. A sign of quality that should not mislead amateurs.

This bakery also has special breads for every occasion, whether large or small. What we prefer here is the pastries, especially the croissants of butter. It's not good for the line, but it doesn't matter! Soaked in hot chocolate, it's a Sunday morning delight that's hard to do.

Twelve varieties of bread are permanently served thanks to the many fournées in the day. Classic, traditional, cross-country, linen or even toasted grain in the oven, it is not uncommon for you to have new recipes.

Pastries, sandwiches and pizzas are available on Mondays and Saturdays. Roulade gourmande and quiche are served every day. Showroom for tasting and studying your future ceremonies, with the advice of the chef!

A quality bakery that has been installed in the city centre for some years. Eric Hattinguais has know-how and sharing. Bread and cakes certainly. But the very varied sandwiches, cold or hot starters make a good deal of fun over the lunchtime.

This is a bakery like you like them. Good bread with regular batches so that it is always fresh. In addition to the famous 1900 baguette, you will find a multitude of types of bread, rye or old-fashioned, ideal for bread lovers... simply. The shop window is well-stocked. When it comes to birthdays, communions, baptisms, no problem: you can trust your baker's talent to find an original idea with this little extra from the house, a decorative painting - on almond paste.

It's the René Rousseau Stadium that we discovered this little blue bakery dressed. With the speciality of "tradition wand" for bread and "la" for pastry, here is a craftsman who is worth a detour. Open early in the morning, he will treat night owls and night crew who finish their service.

The His offers a unique range at the Havre of Oriental Artisanal pastries. The house guarantees «reduced sugar and peanut-free content». And it's left to taste the pistachio cone, makrouds nuts, dates and almonds, flower and almond trésors, gazelle horn, scandriettes, baklaoi and other dziriette. Discover in the shop, with also possibility to get delivered for weddings, baptisms, various receptions.

With his reputation in downtown, Jérôme Picard opened a second bakery Place des Loaves in 2006, this time on Danton. On 130 m 2 he offers all kinds of breads, traditional and special to figs, olives, chestnuts, sausage or cumin. A possible achievement thanks in particular to the first prize of the Young Directory Contest, which allowed it to pocket € 000 €. Proof, if any, of the quality of his work.

An old-fashioned décor, habitués, viennoiseries, cakes, pastries and breads. Price is justified in terms of quality. The ultimate!

The boss's leg has not changed! But fournées evolve, with the example of a tradition wand, enriched with bacon cubes. The shop has also been redone, and the arrival of a second fund allows for a shorter wait. It must be said that the reputation of this bakery has exceeded the area. The chef competes with ingenuity in pastry, bakery, and pastries.

A large appealing brioche overlooks the window. That is what we recognise by far. But we also recognise it thanks to these wonderful round piles that make the snacks of Wednesday a little special. On Saturday, we're queuing up. But a few minutes of waiting are nothing compared to the pleasure of Sunday morning breakfast. The pastries have kept the taste of our childhood: light and tasty, and the reception is always courteous.

For many years now, Christelle and Xavier Letrésor have been making pastry and bakery rhyme with fantasy in their store. Traditional and special breads and sweet products are made in the old-fashioned way and homemade, with a wide range of choices available every day. If you come here for the pleasure of eating, you can also take advantage of it to eat. The two other strong points of Letrésor are the large selection of sandwiches and the preparation of 55 types of mixed salads on demand and on the spot.

In place for five years, Stéphanie and Emmanuel Buffier love the good things and pick the best products for their customers. Whether in bakery or pastry, the couple favours noble materials such as Tradition flour, natural leaven in order to offer quality products. In addition to the special breads whose range is full on the weekend, Stéphane Buffier has chosen to develop a tender offer focused on light creams, mounted ganaches, refuse to work foams and any other achievements that might contain gelatin. Natural and nothing only natural, which also translates into the form of verrines in the weekend with fresh fruit and sweet fruit. The couple also specialized in sugar themes, very popular to celebrate a special occasion or in a ceremony. We have water in the mouth…

Stepping through the door of this family-run bakery for the first time is almost a guarantee of a return visit, and not just for the warm, friendly welcome. Indeed, the breads, pastries and viennoiseries are well worth a trip away from the town centre. In the bakery, artisanal production is not an empty word. No frozen foods here! If we had to choose just a few of their little marvels, we'd have to mention their lemon meringue pie, their melt-in-the-mouth cookies or their large caponière.

A bakery that is popular with all ages, from the child who comes to fill their pockets with sweets, to the pensioner who on Sunday mornings buys his baguette, passing through high school students who love a "global excluded": "banestine", a house specialty whose ingredients vary according to the moods of Jérôme, the boss. Located on rue Claude-Chappe, look out for the sign visible right in front of the Malherbe Stadium! Do not hesitate to make a stop, you will be updated with news!

So all right, this bakery is franchised, but that doesn't take away the artisanal aspect of the products. Breads made on-site every day with traditional French flour, without additives, it's already quite good, isn't it? The same goes for pastries, pastries (um puff pastry...) and sandwiches, everything is fresh and made day by day. But what gives the establishment the ultimate smartest thing is undoubtedly this traditional self-service wand dispenser: whether you finish your work late, have a craving, or are just in a hurry, at any time of the day, you will always have bread to eat!

The traditional bread, guaranteed without additives, made from selected yeast and naturally fermented without adding yeast, is a masterpiece. A real top model of bakers' plates that this Paris-Brest (created by Gaëtan Paris, the best worker in France), in its crunchy, soft, golden, authentic crust. Valérie and her husband Jean-François Lemoisson have been in the profession for generations. Her parents had a bakery in Trouville. The Lemoisson family has always been in the hotel-restaurant business - his great-grandmother had even created Hotel Notre-Dame in Bayeux. After several years of training and work in renowned establishments (Bernachon in Lyon, palaces in Switzerland, Caen… among others), they returned to the countryside, "where the great uncle was a colonel of the fire brigade." If you step into this esteemed place of gourmet sweets, you will succumb to some works of art that you will hardly dare to put in your mouth. Saint Ouen (almond meringue with nougatine cream) and the Royal (layered praline with chocolate foam) are two specialties among pastries and other sweet creations that will not leave your taste buds indifferent. Real wonders! Consider "Lemoisson" for your family celebrations!

The second shop established at 5, rue Eugène Maës (also accessible by Detolle boulevard) makes tobacco and is well-deserved. It must be said that in this famous house, they know how to make bread, so taste the crisp wand Father Toulorge (wheat, malt, and leaven flour) or the Zélie with three crusts and its flour with the delicate hazelnut taste to convince you. In the case of pastries with Isigny PDO butter or pastries, you can only recommend them too: Sumatra (brownie biscuits, feuilletine, creamy and black chocolate foam) and the other 3 chocolates are excellent, the Tahiti with exotic sweetness (Bavarian vanilla and white chocolate, red fruit jelly, and pistachio biscuit) will delight you and not to mention the delicate dessert cassis purple, in the shape of the ear, enhanced by a white cheese point, if not pleasantly surprised by its taste buds. For a quick and cheap meal - useful when time is running - the midi formula with a sandwich, drink, and dessert proves to be a very efficient and smart plan. Think about it...

Well located, as it is on the edge of a busy road and has a large car park, this vast bakery-pastry shop is open 6 days a week, and from very early on weekdays! Quality of products, freshness of pastries, pastries made on the spot, nothing is missing. Sandwiches are also numerous, and proposed according to many formulas. Last but not least, the catering service: the house is proud to offer great services for your private or professional events. We approve!

Here is an establishment that lives up to its name! In a recently renovated store, with large windows and a chic white and black interior, the shop has a lot going for it. The pastries and breads are delicious, but it's the pastries that are worth the detour, as the place certainly offers some of the best creations in the field: the choice is vast and you won't know where to turn. Finally, note that the place is very easy to find in Barfleur, and that you can easily park nearby.
