Laduree

What is Laduree? Perched within the bustling Exchange Tower at 130 King St W, Ladurée brings a slice of Parisian elegance to Toronto's Yonge-Bay Corridor. This French luxury patisserie is renowned for its delicate macarons and classic pastries, offering a charming café-style seating area for those seeking a moment of respite from the PATH's frenetic pace. The interior, described as utterly adorable, transports diners to a quaint tea room nook, all without leaving the heart of downtown.

Laduree Menu & What to Order The menu at Ladurée is a masterclass in French confectionery, with their iconic macarons leading the charge; don't miss the 'Rose', 'Pistachio', or the unique 'Marie-Antoinette' flavours. Beyond the vibrant macaron display, indulge in the 'Eugénie' – particularly the 'Pomme Tatin' or 'Cassis Violette' variations – or the whimsical 'Ourson Guimauve'. Their 'Lemon cakes', 'Hazelnut cakes', and the impressive 'Vanilla Mille Feuille' also come highly recommended for a truly authentic taste of Paris.

Know Before You Go Laduree operates strictly on a walk-in basis, so planning for a quick visit during off-peak hours is advisable, though the tea room seating can accommodate a pleasant pause. Located conveniently in the PATH and accessible by subway, it's an ideal spot for a mid-day treat or a takeaway indulgence. Note that this location observes weekday-only hours, Monday through Friday, from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM.
