Bakery Loraine

It's always wonderful when I can get back to San Antonio because I get to come to Bakery Lorraine. Everything here is fantastic including the employees. All the menu offerings are delicious and the bakery cafe is a real treat. Their coffee is the second best I've ever had (first best is a little place I grew up near c;) and I have traveled all over the US and parts of Europe. The atmosphere is upbeat and relaxing just like the music that's playing. Doing homework or office work here is not a problem, the music is kept low enough that I don't find it distracting. Though this is a very popular cafe the mellows towards the end of the day so there's ample seating. Weekends are livelier and you may have trouble getting a seat for brunch. Even if you aren't going to adopt Bakery Lorraine as your home-cafe-away-from-home and even if you're a die hard Starbucks loyalist I do encourage you to come by and give it a try, you definitely will not regret it. This bakery cafe is the reason why I stay at hotels at The Rim.

I wanted to take a moment to share my delightful experience at Bakery Lorrain that left me with a smile on my face and a satisfied tummy.

I tried a handful of thinks on my visit. Strawberry toaster pasty was great and even better warmed! Lemon blueberry scone was ok, I thought it could have used a little more lemon zing to it. Passion fruit coconut tart was super good. Highly recommend. Dark chocolate lavender macaron was a stand out as well. Lastly the lemon curd kouign amann was very enjoyable.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️: Liked and would recommend going here to family & friends. Food: I ordered the avocado toast with a side of smoked salmon, a macchiato, and a croissant. The avocado toast was rich, filling and a huge portion….enough for two people. However, the croissant lacked flavor and was a bit stale. I’ve had other pastries in previous visits so the croissant may have been a one off. Service: The servers at the counter were patient and helpful. Fast and courteous. Vibe: Light and bright space that was very welcoming. Each table had enough space between them that didn’t feel like they were on top of each other.

Was able to stop here for a quick bite and I loved it. I got the veggie quiche with a side of potatoes. I had to add a pastry so I got the lemon blueberry scone. Everything was so good and I enjoyed every bite of it. I definitely recommend this place. I am from out of town so I will definitely be back when I visit again. I can't forget to mention that the staff was very kind and attentive. Thanks for a wonderful first experience at this lovely bakery.

Tasty food and fast service. Went in at noon for lunch and there was no line. I got the lunch special of half a sandwich and soup. The sandwich and the tomato soup were tasty although the portions were small for the price. If you are looking for larger portions of food go elsewhere. Nice decor and friendly staff.

Bakery Lorraine never misses for me. The tomato soup is comforting. The BLT is always perfect, and the not pictured cookie I devoured before our food came, was delicious. This one isn’t as busy as their Pearl location. Offers tons of seats if you’re looking to get some work done and have a good lunch.
