The best bakeries Rhône-Alpes

Pure bread, pure sourdough, pure pleasure!

No baguette, but real wholemeal or sliced breads for shared pleasures. Aristide also offers brioches, cookies, cannelés and panettones, all 100% organic and as local as possible. Babka to die for.

The adage "from the field to the plate" takes on its full meaning at the Ferme des Blés d'Or thanks to Noël Lafertin, farmer and baker. Nono's bread is the fruit of the work of this lover of old-fashioned bread. A divine bread and for good reason, since the cereals grown with love are harvested here, crushed and then transformed into crunchy bread. Long loaves, baguettes, plain or special, Nono's breads have their fans who flock to the bakery on the rare days it is open. Don't miss the famous apple pie either!

In this authentic bakery, bread and pastries are baked on site, over a wood fire. Their incomparable taste appeals to top restaurateurs.

During the festive season, it's best to order in advance.

The large window opening onto the street is a real eye-catcher. Behind it are breads, cakes and pastries. The long line that regularly snakes around the front is worthy of all the gastronomic reviews. The opening of the outlet is a renaissance and an opportunity for the bakery to develop its own creations, such as petit paillasse with wild garlic, or bread made with sourdough and organic (low-gluten) petit épeautre flour. Upstairs is a pastry-making laboratory, which now takes pride of place among the artisan breads.

The Eric Llinares bakery-pastry shop is located in the center of town, at the corner of rue Victor-Hugo and rue des Forgerons in the heart of the pedestrian district. This pretty and appetizing store has seduced many Aurillac residents with its know-how, as much for the quality of its "authentic" bread as for the content of its pastries and confectionery. You can fall in love with specialties such as rye bread, Auvergne croquants, Aurillac squares...

A committed baker who favours pre-ordering to fight against waste, and 95% of the time... it works! Sylvain Thiéry, a mechanical engineer, decided to become an artisan baker. His bread is made from an ancient variety of wheat, the great spelt Oberkulmer, which is difficult to shape by hand. Far from industrial flour mills, he favours flours crushed with a stone grinder or a steel cylinder. Several varieties are available. What makes this bread special? It can be kept for 15 days without going stale!

It's so easy to treat yourself when you go to Pan & Gâto. The Savoyard dialect for a local bakery that brings the whole of Annecy to its doorstep!

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.

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.
