Really good selection of pastries and their house coffee blend tastes so amazing! Would highly recommend to anyone in the area, definitely worth checking out. It definitely deserves more recognition.
Beautiful upmarket bakery in a stunning location in Wellington parade on Yara Park. There is plenty of comfortable seating inside and out with toilets available for the mobility impaired. Try their delicious almond croissants, certainly worth a visit for. Lovely place to sit down visit or drop in for a Take Away coffee or baked delight. I recommend you try Laurent’s soup of the day There is a different soup for every day of the week. The pumpkin was delicious.
I just came back from Madrid and Paris, tried a variety of sweets whilst there, was disappointed and deeply puzzled. After visiting a dermatologist today, I thought to myself why not get 3 croissants and 3 pieces of cakes for the Lunar New Year? Then I googled “patisseries”, and managed to find this 3.9 star Laurent Bakery nearby. The shop display wasn’t fancy, nor it has outstanding visual appeals of any sort, it’s customer service was pretty good, a lady jumped my queue, and I received this phone call in store, which annoyed the hell out of me. Then I developed a very ‘real’ hunch that the cakes will taste bland, or perhaps too sweet or greasy by the look of it. After dinner my 4 year old kid wasn’t particularly looking forward to dessert, neither did I. Nevertheless, we both had one scoop to try it out, and my daughter suddenly burst into excitement by crying out a big “wow”! I just couldn’t believe my tastebuds, I was sure to complain as well, but I couldn’t. This piece of cake deserves 10 stars! It has a light touch of sweetness, also filled with delightful aromas, and its smoothness goes perfectly along with the cake’s layered textures. We can now all forget about Paris, and stop trusting Google stars ; Thank you Laurent Bakery for a wonderful surprise, and your cake truly rocks!
Our friends got us some goodies and everything was delectable yummy! Can't wait to try more soon
Great service and food. Just wish they made coffee a bit higher!
Unfortunately my experience was not good I have been many times and this time the disabled toilet was dirty, bin overflowing and taps grubby. The eclairs were tiny and quite soft and it was filled with chocolate and not the normal cream. Will try again as I’m a patient at Freemasons and I do like the coffee
Vsited Laurent bakery opposite to MCG last year. Recalled the place being a cosy little cafe serving good quality desserts and coffees. Will visit again.
Laurent never fails to deliver regardless of the location you're at. They have a nice range of breads, sandwiches, hot food, beverages and most importantly cakes! What always draws my attention is their range of cakes. They never disappoint and I've had quite a number of them. Service is always impeccable and everything is clean and well presented. It's a great place for a meeting spot for coffee, to grab a quick lunch, to have some afternoon tea or even to grab some cakes home to share with the family.
Very nice bakery, good variety and quality of food.
I can c why there is a big difference in the experiences and reviews at this place. Place : looks nice, recently renovated. Not too spacious and filled with tables. Service: the lady I dealt with was very polite and friendly, however, I can c what people r talking about with regards to costumer service from other staff. F&B: had a flat white and yes they seem to like to add too much milk. I would say it is below standard for Australia The pastries were of a good quality though. The place seems to have some previous good reputation came here based on a recommendation from a friend who had been to Melbourne previously they should work extra hard to keep it. And, yes, many older couples come. Nothing wrong with that. I actually enjoyed some of the chats with them.
