The 11 best cake shops and cake bakeries in Chamonix

Various delicious pastries, sweets, chocolate, coffee and juices. I recommend visiting it, but unfortunately it closes early at 7 pm. The service from the employees is excellent. They have outdoor seating. Remember that it is forbidden to feed the birds that hover around you.

A charming warm place with an absolutely great interior and delicious food. I took a quiche, it was great and enough to get full. The cakes look like a piece of art.

Stop by to have a coffee, ordered coffee with chocolate! It's really great. We bought 8 pcs of cakes and cookies, all perfect because all cakes are well balanced in terms of sweetener and flavor! Suggest them to improve their services.... Dine-in of sweets will surcharge at around €2 per item than take away.

Huge selection of pastries, Bakery items and chocolates. Inside and outside seating. Great place to hang out for a few hours and try the delicious local pastries.

We stopped by for coffee and pastries. The place was nice and the service was friend the coffee and pastries were okay. Overall, it was an average experience good for a quick stop.

Great coffee and delicious, beautifully decorated desserts. We ordered the chamouny (chocolate mousse and hazelnut) and the almonds & orange tartlet. We sat on the 2nd floor, it was cosy and the service was very friendly.

I have travelled the world extensively over 40 years. I ate at all restaurants ranging from pop & mom’s to Michelin three stars. This is my honest review of the tea room Aux Petits Gourmands in Chamonix. They have excellent pastries with wide choice. It is conveniently located on main street.

Came here for tea, a petite little dual storey cafe with new view of the apls from thr 2nd floor seating. I was told the hot chocolate was very good, sp i tried, indeed not too bad, just l a ilttle too milky for me, but their coffee latte decaf was even better. Tried their macaroons and walnut tart, macaroons was a tinge too sweet for me and the tart was just an average. Overall, ain't a bad cafe to rest on a hot summer afternoon.

This is an amazing coffee shop and a great place for breakfast! We ate here twice, and the food was absolutely delicious.. I especially recommend the Brunch for Two, which is a generous meal packed with a variety of tasty ingredients. The décor is charming, with the cozy vibe of an alpine lodge. They also sell ice cream, chocolate, and a delightful selection of pastries and cakes.

Big offer of pastries, chocolate, and even sandwiches. All very good, same for the coffee. The first floor offers spacious and quiet area to relax and enjoy your time.

We enjoyed a quick breakfast and coffee! It was a perfect start to our day. I went back to pick up desserts for the evening. Highly recommend!

Delicious variety of baked goodies, chocolate and coffee. Enjoyed every morning and evening during my stay in Chamonix.

Very charming and cozy location. We had breakfast with cappuccino and pain au chocolat on the outdoor terrace: great atmosphere and a wide selection of tempting pastries. The pain au chocolat was absolutely delicious and I can’t wait to come back to try more of their classics. The staff was very kind and welcoming. Even though we don’t speak French, we managed to communicate easily thanks to their helpfulness. We will definitely return!

A beautiful and unique cafe. I dined on the second floor and had a great experience. The quiche plate was maybe the best I’ve had. It was fun to look at the gem stones on display and to look at the pastries and cakes downstairs as well!

A must visit! Cosy coffee haunt, definitely the best coffee in Chamonix. I went here every day on my trip and the coffee was perfect every time! The cinnamon brioche rolls are to die for. I like the cosy setup, I sat at the bar seat when it was full.

Great local coffee shop. All the food is incredible and the coffee drinks are smooth and artistic. To top it off the staff is great - very attentive and friendly. Highly recommend !

Brilliant little coffee shop tucked away in the corner of a busy street. The coffee and cakes are amazin. So fresh! Great friendly service

Stopped by for a quick espresso before getting on the Aiguille du midi cable car. Delicious coffee! It's a very small place with limited seating but worth a visit if you love coffee! They sell coffee beans and have some pastries as well.

A wonderful café with excellent service and great coffee blends. The staff was very friendly, and I especially appreciate that they offer reusable options. Highly recommended!

Best place to have a coffee and spend some time with a good atmosphere and incredible service. Small and cozy place. Definitely ‘the only one’ coffee shop in Chamonix.

Perfect coffee, outstanding people, they are very friendly and helpful, best coffee ever in chamonix. I highly recommend

Less than 1 star I give!!! Incredibly bad service and food (well if I can call the thing that I ate «food»). Bad impression started from the beginning. There was a waiting line and there was a French man in front of me, he liked to talk to the young lady the cashier, and their talk was continuing during like 5 min! He already paid and was continuing to chat with her and I was waiting behind. Seemed like she liked it so she didn’t even care that I was just waiting. I went to this place only because it was the closest one to the Aiguille du Midi lift, during my waiting time. They perfectly know they will have clients (tourists only) all year long so they don’t care at all about quality of service! Then it was finally my time to order and I took an «egg sandwich», I asked it hot so the same lady put it on the paper and then inside the oven. Surprisingly the fire started!!! She took it out, there was already an open fire in the room and she started to scream. Some colleagues came to help and somehow they stopped the fire. Then (no surprise) they just gave me that sandwich that was on fire. When I tried it I couldn’t believe someone could prepare it, seems like that person has big problems with his/her taste buds. Inside there was a disgusting mix of mayonnaise and ketchup, all with egg and bad quality bread. I went to the same lady to let her know that the taste was disgusting. And you know what she said? She just said «oh yes I know». No sorry, nothing. This place really spoiled my impression from Chamonix village. If you don’t want to have the same experience just don’t go there, better to stay hungry.

The sandwiches were good portions and nice flavors!

Excellent service. Great espresso. Friendly service. We ate here for breakfast. I had the egg muffin sandwich, pan aux raisin and a long espresso. It’s mostly set up for takeaway, but a nice deck is available for warm weather dining. The smaller indoor space seemed large enough for the smaller shoulder season crowd. I’ll definitely come back here again!

It's the only place open early in the morning. A long queue, everybody wanted to have the first coffee. The pastries are good and fresh, the orange juice is just made and fresh, the coffee is just ok. The lady who works there is really friendly and hardworking

Brilliant Cafe with amazing food (all fresh). Staff are super friendly. There is a good amount of seating and a very nice outdoor sitting area with view on the mountain. Very clean as well. Highly recommended and will definitely visit again.

Local bakery with a good choice of quiches, sandwiches, pastries. Grab a seat at the window :-) The quiche I had for lunch was good. The general selection could have some more healthy offers in my opinion, especially in the warmer months (because cheesy and fatty foods are great during winter in the mountains, so no complaints there!)

This is a popular bakery, with queues during the peak breakfast and lunch hours. I went in the later afternoon (4 pm+) when there was no queue. I liked their cakes and pies.

This place definitely lives up to its hype in the area. Menu is solid: meats dishes, chicken, fish, vegetarian options..friendly and efficient staff. They have very decent portion sizes and their soups are fantastic for someone either not too hungry or on a diet. Pricing is certainly tolerable and the place is well maintained.

The food is just excellent. I had a great Korean style chicken burger. My daughter had a lovely kids meal with delicious chicken. And the French Fries, wow. Just amazing. Views from the balcony are out of this world. Very convenient location just by the cable car.

We had our dinner for a party of 5 pax at Kitsche before our TMB hike. We truly enjoyed the food and the impeccable service rendered by the friendly staff, we went back for a lunch after completing TMB. To our great surprise , Kitsche offers free drinks to all TMB finishers. Again good food was served to our delight.

I walked in, spent nearly 80 euros, and walked out feeling disrespected and with one of the worst dining experiences of my life. The manager was not just indifferent, he was outright rude. The service was atrocious, and the food was even worse. I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone. It’s the kind of restaurant where you walk in, lose your money, and leave feeling insulted I went to this restaurant about three weeks ago. I’m not the type to leave reviews, but when you have such a terrible experience that you still can’t forget it weeks later, it’s worth mentioning. I asked the waiter to recommend the best vegetarian dish on the menu and the best burger. My partner got a burger, and I went with the vegetarian option and a Few beers. The beers took an absurd amount of time to arrive, even though the restaurant was practically empty. Meanwhile, the manager and the bartender stood at the bar, just chatting and gossiping instead of working. (I do asked for the beer again after 15 minutes, and they did not bring it anyway) Then the food arrived, and it was awful. Absolutely inedible.I had to ask for salt, pepper, and hot sauce just to give it some kind of flavor. (Did not work) The burger’s vegetables were old with wilted lettuce that looked like it had been sitting in the fridge for two weeks, slapped onto low-quality meat. We let the manager know, and he couldn’t have cared less. Not even a simple “sorry” or “thank you for your feedback.” On top of everything, the service was beyond terrible. I have never felt so humiliated in a restaurant before. I will never come back to this place or recommend to anybody.

Great spot with a fun vibe and friendly service. I had the Buddha Bowl—fresh, colorful, and packed with flavor. Everything tasted homemade and well-balanced. The decor is quirky and creative, which makes the atmosphere really enjoyable. Perfect place to relax, eat healthy, and enjoy something different. Would definitely come back!

Finally a place that competes with Poco Loco for burger, and actually beats it with a more sophisticated and curated selection of sandwiches. Definitely worth trying! I had porchetta burger… very yummy!

We really enjoyed our experience here. My meal was great and there is an excellent choice for meat eaters and vegetarian. The IPA from the Big Mountain brewery was delicious. Can’t fault our evening.

Ah the hazelnut eclair and flan tart were absolutely amazing. Quality execution and not cloying in the least. They have some tables in the back where they do a casual table service. It's quick and friendly. But the pastries are excellent.

This establishment should be rated MUCH higher. The macarons here are spectacular! Each flavor except apricot are vibrant and fun. The texture of the cookie is perfect. You can taste pieces of strawberry in the fraise cookie and savory the richness of the chocolate in the choclat one. The croissants here are an amazing value and probably the best I've had. The bread filled with chocolate and cream is a great breakfast sweet wake up. You really can't go wrong here in pricing or flavors.

Very nice service in a beautiful place! I highly recommend it :) Delicious macaroons, reasonable price. If I'm ever in Chamonix again, I'll definitely come back to this place.

Awesome place! Very tasty macaroons and merengue. Very helpful and polite staff. Would come back for more of their goodies

Private cafe at the back but personally felt the pastries were not up to standard compared to other cafes on the same street. My cinnamon roll was dry and we didn’t finish them. Coffees were decent.

Just amazing. Fantastic selection of macaroons and really unexpected flavours. The place is lovely decorated. They also serve up a great selection of other desserts, very unique and well crafted. Not very expensive either, which is great. They also serve coffee and teas in the back.

I discovered this charming salon de thé while visiting Chamonix, France. A very pleasant surprise with good coffee and delicious homemade ice cream, you must try the one called Mont blanc with macaroon cream and Chantilly, yummy! It has quality products, great service and customer service is friendly with tourists, a fine experience for affordable budgets.

Good croissants and pain au chocolat....a large array of pastries, quiches, and bread. The outdoor seating was fantastic. Coffee was good, but I was disappointed that it was served in a paper cup and not a proper coffee mug...the staff was nice and friendly..

We visited this pastery/bakery maybe 5x during our stay in Chamonix. You can take your meal outside and enjoy the view on Blanc massive. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

Avoid this place at any cost. There are better places around where they welcome people wanting to spend their money. There is an elderly lady who has an issue if you don’t speak French, going around agitated when you ask more than one thing and you do that in a different language. We bought 50€ worth food, that wasn’t appreciated. This is quite sad taking into account Chamonix is full of tourists.

The coffee was good, but the service was a bit disappointing. When I went to order again, two people skipped the line and the staff served them without noticing that I was already waiting. The staff should pay more attention to the queue.

Had an excellent eclair and croissant here for tea. Plenty of outdoor seating. Good service.

You can have a nice breakfast there for under 20 euro

Great selection of freshly baked pastries; Very friendly and welcoming staff

It was wonderful. The hostess is very kind, she helped organize the tables for our large group. The tea was wonderful, especially the black mint tea, which the hostess recommended, as well as the carrot cake. Highly recommended!

Super nice staff and totally amazing food! I had a really yummy soup and burger (vegan) and the banana chocolate cake (vegan) and i LOVE it!

Really delicious vegetarian quiche, the best I have had, not heavy, filled with veggies and crusted with shredded cheese. They have 2 soup of the day, both nice. This café has a warm, homey atmosphere, definitely worth to go! And baby, child friendly, there is a diaper changing station in the bathroom.

This is such a fantastic gem of a cafe and well worth the visit. The owner is lovely and an incredible baker! The tea and coffee was so good, we were back 3 times in one day! Loved hanging out here during a rainy morning with a book. Cannot say enough good things!

Wow. What great food. We visited three times during a three day stay. If you're looking for vegan or gluten free options, this is the place. And if not, you'll struggle to tell anyway. Everything was so tasty. I had the soup and quiche for lunch. Definitely want to go back again

Excellent! Best quiche I’ve ever had. Buddha Bowl was also exceptionally well done. Bravo.

We visited Tête-à-Thé for the first time today and the food wowed us. Fresh, homemade and absolutely delicious. I love gazpacho and this was the best I have had. Also an amazing golden latte and the vegetable quiche was light and fluffy with a crispy crust. So good! The red cabbage salad served with it hit just right. Highly recommend!!

Ummm... The confections here are well priced, homemade and really delicious. The shop has antiques giving a historic feel. The owner/chocolatier was so kind. I recommend getting an assortment of both the chocolates and macarons. The raspberry filled chocolate was my favorite. *Mind Blown* 🤯

The best macarons ever.

(Translated by Google) The best macarons I have ever tasted in my life! Really delicious. More than reasonable price (€1.20 per huge macaroon). Very friendly seller. Not to be missed! (Original) Les meilleurs macarons jamais goûtés de ma vie ! Vraiment délicieux. Prix plus que raisonnable (1,20€ l'énorme macaron). Vendeuse très sympathique. A ne pas rater !

(Translated by Google) A cozy little shop. The macarons are homemade and delicious, the best I've eaten! The prices are also advantageous. (Original) Une petite boutique chaleureuse. Les macarons sont faits maison et délicieux, les meilleurs que j'ai mangés ! Les prix aussi sont avantageux.

(Translated by Google) Magnificent store. The products are excellent. Macarons are indescribable: taste them. A must-visit if you go to Chamonix. Really a shame to miss out (Original) Magnifique boutique. Les produits sont excellents. Les macarons sont indescriptibles : goûtez les. Visite incontournable si vous allez à Chamonix. Vraiment dommage de passer à côté

(Translated by Google) It’s a treat!!! The shop is very pretty, there is a variety of choice that will tempt you. The prices are correct. And the seller is very nice. The macaroons are delicious. 100% recommended (Original) C’est un régale!!! La boutique est très jolie, il y’a une variété de choix qui donne envie.Les prix sont correcte. Et le vendeur très sympa.

A real delight at more than affordable prices. 🤗🤗🤗🤗 (Original) Très jolie boutique restée dans son jus. Des macarons, friandises, chocolats artisanaux aux parfums variés. Un vrai délice à des prix plus qu'abordable. 🤗🤗🤗🤗

Amazing flavors. What a bakery. A bit snooty vibe. But fabulous food to go.

Pastry House Richard is an absolute delight! The pastries are fresh, beautifully crafted, and full of flavor. Every item I tried was a perfect balance of sweetness and texture, showing great skill and care in preparation. The shop is welcoming and well-organized, making it a perfect spot for a treat or a coffee break. Highly recommended for anyone visiting the area!

Good ice cream, but even better pastries. Came by to buy a number of pastries and they were very fresh and reasonably priced, not to mention very aesthetically baked. The staff were friendly and efficient, and the queue moved quickly.

I visited this bakery twice, and both times the experience was disappointing due to the behavior of the staff member working there. She was especially rude and unwelcoming towards Arabs and foreigners — basically anyone who is not French. This kind of discriminatory attitude is unacceptable in any service-oriented business. I strongly suggest replacing her with someone more professional and respectful to all customers, regardless of their background.

One of the best croissants ive ever tried. Caramelized and chewy from the inside. Excellent pastries all around the menu especially the cookies.

Very delicious selections of pastries and sweets. I like the macarons and the pie.

We had our nightly sorbet indulgence every night from Richards. FYI The ice cream/sorbet is open later than the pastries. We tried almost every flavor... And the winners were peach, apricot, raspberry, and melon. They all tasted fresh and were refreshing after long hikes. There was always a line but it moved quickly. The flavors have some rotation and weren't available every day, but there were always plenty to choose from.

If you’re tourist and don’t speak French better avoid this place. Dark hair girl working there on Saturday morning has bad attitude and literally rolling her eyes.Not pleasant and rude. But Pastries are nice and tasty

Love love love this bakery. A must for every morning in Chamonix. We’d pop in for our croissants and coffee in the morning and pick up a couple of sandwiches for lunch on the slopes. Never spent over €10. Everything was absolutely delicious. Highly recommend the Canadian, nutty based pastry with maple syrup. Staff are really friendly and muddled through our dodgy french with aplomb. Please go, you won’t be disappointed. Way cheaper than buying food on the slopes.

This is a fantastic bakery with pastries, croissants etc., pre-made baguettes and coffee. We bought quite a variety of items from this bakery during our one week stay in Chamonix and we liked everything.

Great place to stop and grab a bite. Free parking in front a reasonable prices. Really nice staff. Good selection of organic stuff as well. Right next to aguille du midi

Lovely place and lovely people, definitely recommend.

What a charming little bakery! Extremely polite staff, great variety of dishes. I'm not a fan of pies but their Mont Blanc pastry was really well done. Also loved the muffins - really soft, fresh, and the perfect amount of sweet.

I want to live in Chamonix just so I can go to this bakery every day! The cashier was so pleasant, greeting everyone happily. What a wonderful way to start the day. Merci beaucoup!
