Laurent Boulangerie

This is a must visit cafe for me every time I am in Melbourne. I am absolutely addicted to their French Style Apple Turnovers. But I have tried many of their other items and they are all outstanding in taste and quality. While the location is not necessarily conducive to a relaxed cafe experience, the food is worth going there even just for some takeaway. The coffee is good but so is it elsewhere in Melbourne, so you would not go there for the coffee but the pastries alone.

Great refurbishment and fresh produce. Extremely disappointing to have a staff member think it is acceptable to serve food without proper food hygiene in this day and age, and use her hands without gloves or utensils. I dare imagine what food safety practices are being employed (or should I say are not) behind customer viewing. Very off putting :-(

Incredible selection. High prices as all boutiques are, but the cost is worth it for the quality. Fresh bread available, as well as gourmet, interesting sandwiches and all sorts of dietary options. Just be cautious to ask for prices up front as they are not displayed. Thank you to the business owner for getting in touch about my issues with pricing and temperature. 5 Stars for selection, quality and service.
