The best bakeries Lorraine

A neighborhood bakery where everything is homemade and prepared on site. Traditional bakery, but above all original specialties, and that's what we like. As well as the chocolate banana ficelle, you'll love the pumpkin-kiri ficelle, unless you prefer the candied fruit panettone or the 12 different flavored éclairs. There's something for every taste, with limited editions to suit every taste and calendar! Enough to delight gourmets and add an original touch to your meals all year round.

This bakery has proudly won countless gold, silver and bronze medals. Indeed, the Lorraine pâté of this family business has already been awarded eight times, a first in Meurthe-et-Moselle! The famous pâté has even been represented twice in Japan, that's saying something! Of course, you can also taste the famous giant Italian meringues, pastries and pastries of all kinds, and mini pizzas, heated on the spot. As soon as the weather is fine, we like to sit down in front of the store to have a gourmet break. Yummy!

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!

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 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.

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.

Gwizdak's homemade sourdough bread is renowned. The baguettes are excellent and the breads delicious. At lunchtime, the takeaway sandwich with purely organic and original ingredients is a must. Signature recipes such as the mirabelle plum-flavored Lorraine cake, adorned with a Lorraine cross, are a delight, and for a snack or dessert, the pastries are to die for: éclairs, tarts, paris-brest, kougelhopf, which won the prize for best regional brioche... all homemade. And the queue in front of the store confirms it: everything here is delicious.

located in Blandan, the Lalonde family's motto "You can only make good with very good" is followed to the letter. Nathalie conveys a taste for old-fashioned confectionery, refinement and quality. In her childlike boutique, you can admire her delicious and colorful creations: bergamots, charlestines, palets d'or, florentins, mirabelles in marzipan, old-fashioned praline truffles or gluten-free entremets, as well as fresh sandwiches on demand and a catering service. The breads are delicious!

One of the best known bakeries in Nancy, it is ideally located near the Place Stanislas. Customers flock here to pick up (and then devour!) their croissants or a small delicacy: sourdough bread, pastries with AOC butter, doughnuts, sweet treats, rye pie... We particularly appreciate the ficelles, small baguettes kebab, tartiflette, goat cheese and dried tomatoes or olives. With affordable prices and sandwiches to fall, it becomes strategic in case of small sudden hunger or to have lunch on the go!

This beautiful bakery has been completely renovated and offers high quality breads, with a special mention for the house specialty, the Tradition baguette which has received the red label, or the Festive. All the products are homemade and made on the spot. The delicious pastries are guaranteed pure butter: ideal at any time of the day, why not for lunch, after a delicious sandwich. La Petite Commanderie, next door, offers the same products. Tasty!

This bakery with a modern design is located slightly behind the Place Saint-Epvre. A passage in the program "La Meilleure Boulangerie de France" (The best bakery of France) has confirmed its reputation. The bread is very good, the sandwiches too, on the bakery side, the brioche feuille is to be tasted absolutely, for breakfast. On the pastry side, everything is pretty and appetizing, the products are well worked and very appetizing. An excellent address for a snack or a dessert, for family meals on Sunday lunchtime or any other occasion when you like to treat yourself.

It's hard to escape the Vinter bakery. A veritable institution on one of Épinal's busiest thoroughfares. Open every day except Monday, this bakery is rarely empty. Gourmets are in the spotlight with a wide range of delicacies to enjoy on the go or at home: pastries, special breads, sandwiches and croissants! Don't hesitate to order for a special occasion. The cakes are very good!

This beautiful bakery soon became, in the neighbourhood, a reference whose reputation goes beyond the street to come to the ears of distant residents who don't hesitate to travel to come and buy their bread here. The Grand-Mère wand, made with a mixture of selected meals and natural leaven is simply superb - with a conservation over two days without any worries. And the croissants with very fondants butter. Warm and friendly welcome.

If this address is present in these lines, it is that this bread is absolutely exceptional! To be sure to be able to taste it, better book!

The famous house present throughout France since the opening of its first bakery in 1889 is also widely established in Lorraine. In Montigny-lès-Metz, the shop does not show among the big panel of the chain. Traditional breads, assorted sandwiches and many pastries are served. Many desserts also adorn the famous map which is diversifying from time to time. Little new: the fruity tropézienne pie! However, we will regret the sometimes high prices of the award.

Seydou Diallo, of Senegalese origin, has a love for the material. For him, baking is a story of chemistry. The special breads made from organic flours and the pastries offer gourmets little pleasures. He has won two gold medals in departmental competitions organised by the Moselle bakers' federation. One in the category "best pure butter croissants in Moselle" and the other "best traditional French baguettes". A well-deserved recognition, so much so that a second bakery has just opened in the town centre!

A family business handed down from father to daughter, L'écrin Gourmand has been serving the residents of the Sainte-Thérèse district for 10 years. In keeping with traditional know-how, all products are hand-made and homemade. You'll find classic Viennese pastries (croissants, pains au chocolat, lunettes à la crème...) as well as delicious pastries (éclairs, fruit tarts) and homemade cakes (marbles, lemon or rum cakes). And if you like quality bread, you'll find it here every day! In fact, La Tradition was named best baguette in Moselle by the FIM (Foire internationale de Metz) in 2014. A wide range of special breads (sourdough, country, wholemeal), including a sweet variant (rye, speculoos, raisins) and a dietary variant (Energus 10). Our favorite? Without doubt the honey-cranberry bread: a delight! Ideal for an afternoon snack or a balanced breakfast before a physical or mental effort. For lunch, we opt for the low-priced sandwich formula. And for gifts? Don't forget our boxes of almond tuile delicacies.

Do you know the bergamot brioche? In any case, it took six months for Thierry Antoine, who has been established for ten years on rue Elisabeth-Charlotte, to experiment, test, taste and find the perfect dose of bergamot extract, which gives his buttery brioche this so delicate taste. A patented creation, that's how important and above all how original it is! At the end of the week, the bergamot brioche, which can also be made to order, completes the wide range of breads, pastries, pâté lorrain and other sweets that gourmands will appreciate.

The house, well known by the people of Nancy, serves its products at any time of the day thanks to its wide range of hours. In addition to the baguettes, hot and crispy, the special breads (wholemeal, walnut, fig, bacon, cheese), savory pleasures (pâtés lorrains, pies) or sweet (strawberry, lemon or chocolate tarts, macaroons in boxes) are excellent. Of course, you sometimes have to be patient, but the service is quite nice! A good address for sandwiches and salads on the go in Nancy and now also in Essey-lès-Nancy.

Florian Cilla has been quick to add his own personal touch to his bakery. Located in a quiet neighborhood, you can buy quality products and enjoy friendly service. The bread is very good and original, with rye, fruit or even made-to-measure... As for pastries, there are macaroons, flaky brioche with pralines and paris-brest. With very reasonable prices, the bakery has quickly built up a regular clientele, especially since it won the Meurthe-et-Moselle prize for the best galette des rois! Lunchtime specials.
