Best cakes and pastries in the world ????????
We finally had a chance to try out La Roux. It's located within Chinatown in Victoria. The texture and taste of the canele was fantastic but the inside was a tad too moist. The bread pudding was delicious. If you are tourist and order takeout, make sure you have a microwave to reheat the sauce at the hotel room (which we had). The croissant was great too.
Very impressed by La Roux Pastisserie's offerings. Both the bread pudding and profiterole we ordered were excellent. Coffee is just ok, but coffee is not what they specialized in.
This patisserie on the edge of Chinatown is a desserts-only affair with lovely, whitewashed and mirror-filled seating area and a smaller selection of French-inspired sweets than what is available on their website; it's at once chic and not overly pretentious (I'm not sure if you could ever take that maker of emoji macarons too seriously...), though they're generally more expensive than the other bakeries I visited on my trip. Many items, such as their croissants, lemon tarts, eclairs, are classic French recipes, while others are fancier takes on homestyle baking like brownies, cookies, etc. That almond French toast... -- "Mimi's Cake Tour"
Delicious and elegantly put together pastries the staff were friendly, knowledgeable, and professional. I would strongly recommend this bakery for all your pastry needs!
Best Strawberry Tart I have EVER eaten.
Great pastries and tea with a calm, welcoming atmosphere!
I had the pain au chocolat. It looked beautiful! The bakery was clean and elegant and the staff was very friendly. Only 3 stars because my pastry was not crisp and flaky; it was undercooked and dense in the middle.
My mom ordered my birthday cake from here. It was so good, hands down the best cake I've ever had. Was topped with macarons (so good) and real flowers, almost looked too pretty to eat (almost). I can't wait to stop in and try some other goodies!
Espresso pistachio tart! So far my favourite dessert from here. The crunch of the tart part makes it perfect and the combination of pistachio flavour and the hint of coffee is just amazing! Absolutely recommend this one whenever you see they serve it lol
Great manager & staff; delicious baked goodies.
5 stars with an exclamation point. Best croissants and desserts around. We drive past tons of other spots just to get their croissants, pains au chocolat and coffee in the morning.
Cute cafe! Incredible authentic French treats
On our way back for more
Best croissants!
So beautiful in here, The baked good are great too. Not to mention the price is a little cheaper than most fancy new bakeries (4.50 avg price)
Need I say more just look at this piece of art! Lovely place for a tea and great to see an all lady staff! They are doing an amazing job. Can’t wait to go back!
I had tea & desert here with my best friend
The best Americano coffee I've had in Victoria. Lightly roasted, nutty and some cocoa in the flavour. I hear they use Fernwood Coffee.
Recently contacted the store from the States to arrange a cake delivery to my Grandfather who lives in Victoria. Store was super helpful, friendly and delivered an awesome cake.... I heard it was delicious too. Thanks again for knocking it out of the park with how easy you made this for somebody arranging from the US!!
A cozy french coffee spot with amazing desserts. It's a busy place, so a line up might be in order. We had a delicious passion fruit with chocolate crust. It was filled with passion fruit cream. It was fantastic. I highly recommend this place for a nice treat and some delicious tea or coffee.
Have been to many french bakeries before..this one is not so good. Good decor and decent prices but the deserts and service level is below average. If you are seeking a good dessert experience go elsewhere.
The food is absolutely amazing there sticky toffee dish is to die for!!!!!
Everything at La Roux has always been amazing. Thank you again for your help this morning, my wife loved her birthday cake. Best carrot cake in town! No raisins! ????
Only got venture to this place once. Definitely saddened as their Vegan Cupcake they had was insanely delicious!! Would suggest for others to try their goodies if nearby.
Lovely place to meet friends for coffee and a treat. Really enjoyed my tarte citron. Warm service and beautiful space.
I only tried a Nanaimo bar but it was delicious. The service was great and the shop is very cute. Everything looked freshly made and kinda decently priced for Victoria!
Ran into this place when looking for a cafe/dessert shop in Victoria. Creme brulee is good, but their coffee was just okay(tried their mocha with plain croissant). Staff is very friendly.
For dessert this place is the best in town. Just found out about it but have been three times since and for $6, the desserts all look (and taste) phenomenal!
What a heavenly little spot! The staff were beautiful, gracious, kind & welcoming towards my friend and I when we visited yesterday afternoon. Our desserts and drinks were delicious and I loved the interior design of the space, it made a rainy day feel so cozy and intimate. I genuinely appreciated how the staff personally thanked my dear friend for her contributions as a frontline worker in our local community by surprising her with a personalized ‘Thank You’ macaroon when they brought our sweet treats and drinks to our table. Your generosity was noticed and it made both of our days. Thank you for a wonderful experience. I’ll be back for more cheesecake! ????
Me and my family love this place! The atmosphere is welcoming, and the desserts were PHENOMENAL. Probably the best creme brulee and tiramisu we have ever had!
Love too much this place all the fat all the time you want real VB pastry go here but go early they sell out on sunny days
(Translated) Fantastic! (Original) Fantastique!
Had macarons (lemon, blueberry and chocolate). The chocolate did not seem as delicate as the other two. Blueberry seemed unique and was great. Lemon was also incredible. Would definitely try this again to try the other items on the menu.
Everything taste really awesome. Worth every penny must visit place. They have lot of gluten free options
I had a lavender earl grey opera cake for around $4 and was blown away! Incredible desserts/works of edible art for a very good price. "They have The best vanilla soy latte," as declared by a friend. My only wish is that I had gotten more of their flavorful desserts to go. They also offer a gift section. Perfect for groups of two.
Delicious and authentic cake and pastries, the shop is beautifully decorated and the coffee was perfect. All around excellent place for real French style baking and pastries.
(I'm french, born and raised) Had a pain au chocolat and a Paris-Brest. The first one was definitely tasting like a good one in a good bakery in France. The second one is a little bit different from the traditional one, but the mix of the two fillings made it taste very much like the ones I used to eat a lot during my childhood! Nicely done, thank you!! The gluten free tiramisu is very good too, so you can still pick up gf items from them for your gf friend! ????????
There were hardly any baked items left in stock. We got the bread pudding to go, loved it! Packaging for the pudding sauce could be better, it spilled open and made a mess in the bag.
What an Amazing Cake you guys have, I have been ordering it from the last few years , you have given me such a delious ,(Mouth watering )cake . I will definitly reccomed this place to anyone. I just put my another order.
My experience here was fantastic. The pastries were absolutely delicious, and the price was really good. We tried the chocolate panda tea and found it really amazing with the pastries.
Too much cream on their éclairs and other baked goods. It did not taste as a French éclair by any means. Very average and overpriced.
Good stuff!
We are not really impressed for the birthday cake that we ordered even our guest did not like it!????
I first came here on a food tour where I got to try a couple macarons and hear the owner's story of how she got into this business. The macarons were so delicious that I immediately returned after the tour to have some tea and a couple more desserts. Everything I tried was incredible, the service is fantastic, and the atmosphere is so fancy and enjoyable to be in.
Quaint atmosphere. Great place to stop for a coffee or latte and a snack.
This is great for the price. Big tea pots compared to Murchies, and tea tastes good as well. The chocolate cheesecake was also delicious.
Nice place and good service, but their expresso was terrible...
We stopped in for a snack to wait a bit before our appointments at the tattoo shop around the corner. Fantastic pasteries, very clean, friendly staff.
Lovely place to sit and share a tea and treat with a friend and chat.
I picked up a few treats from here on Sunday, but only just indulged. Had the most amazing lemon tart from here! Not too sweet, perfectly tart and lemony! And the woman that served us was wonderful, friendly, and a great conversationalist (in both English and French:) ) I will happily grab more treats from here when I'm next in the area.
The absolute best French baking on Victoria
A lovely, elegant and simple shop with an assortment of fantastic desserts and drinks at great prices. Lovely customer service. It's a nice place to seat down and spend some time with friends.
I know you guys have so many great reviews but I just wanted to say thank you for such a lovely experience ordering from here. The staff took my order the Friday before Valentine's Day over the phone as they were closing, allowed me to pay the following day, and accommodated filling and delivering my order for that same weekend, despite the incredibly short notice. Their delivery policy is free delivery with a $25 purchase (location-dependent, obviously), which was so incredibly reasonable. They worked with me to find a delivery time that would suit me best, and communicated with me the day of delivery to make sure that someone would be there when they arrived before dropping off the treats. I ordered 4 pastries to my aunts house as a birthday surprise, and they were all GORGEOUS and beautiful. She highly recommended the Passionfruit Chocolate Tarte and the Paris Brest. Thank you again to everyone at La Roux for helping me make my aunt's birthday special, even in COVID times!!
Elegant and casual. Beautifully crafted traditional treats. Silver tray service makes you feel special.
La Roux's macarons, tarts and cakes are amazing. Everything is so tasty. Try their 'Almond French Toast' it is amazing.
Nice staff but oddly bizarre and slow sevice
So many options and varieties. Very delicious and worth stopping for if you're into pastries like me ???????? the ube profiterole and lemon tart was my favorite.
Ever since being introduced to this perfect little French patisserie on a food tour last yeat, I haven't been able to get enough! My partner and I regularly stop in a macron or three and this weekend we got a birthday cake made - it was out of this world delicious!! This is a must-try for tourists and locals alike.
Delicious and Fun! It feels like you're in a different part of the world. The tarts, macarons and other treats are both stunning to look at and wonderful to eat.
So French! So good, go for the PARIS -Brest! Merci!
La Roux was a cozy, quiet, delicious stop on our afternoon walk. Do not miss getting a pot of tea - supplied from the nearby Silk Road #Tea . The pots of tea easily have 4 full cups in them - plenty to split. Pastries are delicious and I really enjoyed being able to watch in the kitchen through the window while we munched. What a wonderful shop! #pastry #letsguide
One of the prettiest cafes in town! The staff is very welcoming, knowledgeable and helped me a lot because I’m always torn between what to choose! Enjoyed our desserts, coffee and wonderful atmosphere surrounding us. Desserts are delicious! I’m so impressed with fillings that don’t feel like too heavy or too much butter.
Excellent little Patisserie! Great ambiance, pretty looking pastries, decent prices with wonderful staff. 4 little tables inside and 4 bistro tables outside (reminiscent of Europe). Had the Passionfruit Chocolate Tart - real passionfruit flavour! Beautiful tables, chairs and bathrooms.
Interesting place with some good items. Cakes are Asian influenced takes on patisserie staples with a classic Paris breast as the backbone.
Love this place, my daughter and I visit when ever we come to Victoria.
Tried their pain au and immediately went back the next day for another. Fantastic.
Delicious tiramisu served on a table strong and inescapable smell of bleach.
(Translated) This cafe has the most delicious cheesecake i ’ve ever had. It ’s literally the BEST. The atmosphere is pretty amazing as well. I can tell that they ’re doing their best to keep it clean. Besides, the washroom is awesome. I ’ll definitely be returning. Neat atmosphere, really delicious cheesecake, pretty interior, and the restroom inside the café, which seems to be really more careful than 뭣! The store itself is small but I really liked it from one to ten! (Original) This cafe has the most delicious cheesecake i’ve ever had. It’s literally the BEST.

Fantastic service! I needed a birthday cake at the last minute and they were able to make this gorgeous vanilla + raspberry curd cake with coconut macarons on top. It was delicious as well. Highly recommended!
Met the owner, she is super nice. Delicious french pastries here as well as coffee!
Love this place - always stop in here on a trip downtown. Pastries amazing!
Best creme brulee I have had in Victoria. It never disappoints. The staff are super lovely and the atmosphere is bright and clean.
stunning st honoré cake for my friends 50th. the shop is beautiful and all the goodies are to die for.
stunning st honoré cake for my friends 50th. the shop is beautiful and all the goodies are to die for.
What a cute place, but in’s just a amazing looking and with creative rococo style furniture store, also all the pasty’s a so beautiful and so testy
Delicious, The Paris Brest is a must. Chic environment and the owner is so friendly!
Amazing desserts and a cute little location with seating. Was busy when we went.
Not only is this one of the cutest spots in Victoria, but their staff are incredible and their pastries divine. A wonderful spot to take mum, a friend, or everyone you know.
I have ordered a cake 2 days before my boyfriend’s birthday and wanted to give him a surprise. I ordered a birthday cake on phone and informed them I would like two macarons on the top with some simple but nice, creative design for a mature gentalman around 30 years old, for his birthday celebration. And this is what I received. I just can not understand why a really nice reviewed pastry shop can sell this birthday cake to their customer. Even they themselves probably feel it is not a nice presented cake. Even the macaron on the top was not clean, with some chocolate sauce. Every customer should be respected and nice treated. If you don’t like it, why you think your customer should like it. No one called or confirmed with me if I am okay with the design even I preordered on Sunday for Tuesday’s pick up. The taste of the cake is not bad, this is why I listened to others’ recommendation and choose this pastry shop for my boyfriend’s birthday cake. Their customer service was also nice, both in person or on phone. I, myself am a customer service professional and I appreciate their nice service. But I really can not accept that they sell this product to their customers. This is a warning for everyone, please make sure you deliver all the message to this shop about what do you want for a birthday cake. Otherwise you might feel very disappointed when you receive what they make for you by their assumptions.
The window display has lots of delicious looking pastries. The Crème Brûlée is delicious but the multiple staff I encountered were rude and provided poor customer service. For that reason alone, I wouldn’t return to this bakery because I felt very unwelcomed, there are many more exceptional bakeries in the area!
Our favourite place to enjoy when we are downtown. Excellent in every way.
Cakes are great, but service (from I believe the owner) can be a bit rude, I was there today June 22 in the morning. Cheesecake is delicious though. Do recommend for cakes, coffee is meh
Cute place, very friendly staff. Great desserts.
Custom made cake for my wife’s birthday. It was exquisite. Thank you.
(Translated) A new little cafe in Victoria. We recommend. The selection of small and large delicacies is unique. The service is competent and very friendly. The cafe is also very well maintained and tastefully decorated. We will visit it again next year. (Original) Ein neues kleines Cafe in Victoria. Sehr zu empfehlen. Die Auswahl an kleinen und großen Köstlichkeiten ist einmalig. Der Service ist kompetent und sehr freundlich. Ebenfalls ist das Cafe sehr gepflegt und geschmackvoll eingerichtet. Wir werden es im nächsten Jahr wieder besuchen.
We just tried this place twice in a week. We used to go to the usual familiar places in Victoria, and the customer service was always a bit disappointing. The staff at La Roux have been amazing, we also sat outside once and the owner or manager came to say hello to us and to our son. That was super nice. The pastries are the best in Victoria. The almond croissant is to die for. If you like almonds, the financier is so good. It will change your life :) Simply the best, customer service with a smile always, and this place is special. Will be back and promoting it to our friends, family and workplace!
These guys make a sinfully good Paris-Brest!
Very good
The bread pudding was superb!
(Translated) This pistachio and rose macaroon was offered to afternoon tea when I went to Pendley Inn and Tea House. Compared to Pierre Herme and Pierre Marcolini, this is a handmade rustic taste. It is a light and light texture. The scent of pistachio and rose is not so good. I prefer a thick, creamy dessert-like macaroon because I like it, it ’s two stars. (Original) ペンドレー イン アンド ティー ハウスに行って時に食べたアフタヌーンティにこちらのピスタチオとローズマカロンが提供されました。ピエール・エルメやピエール・マルコリーニと比較すると、こちらは手作りの素朴な味です。あっさりしていて軽い食感です。ピスタチオやローズの香りもいまいち。私はどっしりと濃厚なクリームのデザートっぽいマカロンの方が好みのため星2つです。
In one word: perfection! Incredible pastries, light and melt in your mouth, not too sweet and lovely flavors. Ordered an assortment for mother's day and they were a big hit. Thank you!!
The best pastries, this is go to bakery for birthday cakes; passion fruit cheese cake!
Amazing service and treats.
Great bakery! They have a wide variety of baked goods. The yuzu cake and bread pudding were fabulous! The staff is always very friendly as well.
Price it's high and service are with out ????
Very nice!
Delicious desserts.
Shared a dessert here yesterday with my daughter in law and a latte. Wonderful atmosphere and food. Will go here again for sure.
Best almond croissants in town! My only recommendation is to make MORE as they are so good, they always sell out :)
I am in love with how quaint this bakery is! We passed by it while visiting Victoria when I saw a little sample of their pastries from a window and I had to stop by. The bakery was very cute inside, with elegant decor. Their selection of pastries were mouthwatering. I absolutely loved their macarons. They had a lot of baked goods to choose from, I wish I could've bought one of everything.
Such a wonderful spot with friendly and helpful staff. They went the extra mile (literally) to do a special delivery for me during COVID-19. Their creme brûlée and almond croissants are possibly the best thing to grace the surface of the earth.
Amazing interior design, tasty food and the price is very affordable. The staff were extremely friendly and offered to bring food to our table although this is a cafe. Highly recommended.
Amazingly delicious desserts! I love the Dark Chocolate Raspberry Tart and the chocolate croissants. Great, quick service and super friendly ladies behind the counter! Also, its gorgeous inside!
Carrot Cake is to die for!
Had the almond and chocolate croissant. It was glorious! The decor inside is also worth seeing/experiencing. I think I'm with love with this patisserie. Will make my way back here if I'm ever back in Victoria.
Not to be missed! Beautiful, friendly, and so so delicious.
Great atmosphere and delicious desserts
OMG. The brownie cheesecake is to die for. It’s not too heavy or sweet yet it’s very tasty. The frosty on top makes it even better. Don’t miss it.
The cakes are amazing & the staff is so lovely! I enjoy everytime i visit!
The carrot cake was the most amazing carrot cake ever had. I don’t know what their secret is, but wow. The chai latte was good too, as was the pastries we tried. Would be happy to come back should we find ourselves in Victoria again.
(Translated) Delicious patisserie - taste like grandma. Chai latte tastes like chai latte (not syrup with chai taste). Highly recommended (Original) Leckere Patisserie - Geschmack wie bei Oma. Chai Latte der nach Chai Latte schmeckt (nicht nach Sirup mit Chai Geschmack). Sehr empfehlenswert
Patisserie ist one of the better values around. Delectable pastries that remind me of France. Super friendly staff, extremely helpful with choices and there are many. A must in Chinatown.
Tasty, refined, and beautiful
La Roux is a cute french patisserie (aka, pastry shop) right in the heart of downtown Victoria, very close to Fan Tan Alley. Stopped in for a pot of tea and a pastry while we rested our feet from walking all day. Great service and a large selection of delicious pastries to choose from! Loved the vintage meets modern chic decor, including the cute teapots! Their macrons looked amazing, but did not get a chance to try them so will have to return!
They made my wife's birthday cake! Everything was perfect. She said it was the best birthday cake she's ever had. They went above and beyond to make the entire experience so sweet ????
Amazing and authentic.
Delicious pastries, especially the passion fruit tart and the salted caramel pastry! The staff was warm and accommodating. We'll come back for sure!
Four stars because they have the best tiramisu , I haven't had the rest of their pastries but that tiramisu was something else!
WONDERFUL and DELICIOUS!!!
Yammy .....
We came here on the "Taste of Victoria Tour" and we were amazed at how delicious the pastries were. We had to go back on our way out of Victoria to pick up gifts for family back home. It has some great atmosphere and friendly service. We didn't get to meet the owner but the German girl who was managing was so warm and welcoming. We will be back!
Great pastries and tea.
Exquisite pastries, teas, coffee, and exceptional service
La roux is an elegant bakery in the heart of china town. They have a variety of pastries, baked goods, and specialty coffees. We bought a small a chocolate cheese cake. Rich, fresh, well put together.
Great tasting treats for everyone. Cappuccino and hot chocolate was great, and compliments any cake/patisserie product you order. A little bit challenging to find seating for a family of four, so expect that you might have to buy to-go.
A clean little place in a great location. They have some pretty fantastic little pastries and desserts for one to try, along with different coffee/tea beverages. I've had several different items from here, the only thing I haven't been over the moon for was their carrot cake. The bathroom has a change table (shows a family friendly atmosphere) and the staff are very friendly. Highly recommended for a coffee and treat stop.
(Translated) Best coffee and croissant in Victoria. Service is excellent .... superb French music Thank you (Original) Meilleur café et croissant à Victoria. Service est excellent....superbe musique française???????? Merci
This is the place to go for anything delish!!
Great place for coffee and a little something sweet. Fabulous variety of patisserie creations. I want to keep going back to try new ones. This place is a little gem.
Made the most beautiful sparkly and pastel cake for my wife's birthday! Taste was delicious too ???? Highly recommend La Roux and their pastries are great!
A strange but welcome find in Chinatown. The cappuccino was excellent (they make their hot coffee beverageswith two shots pf espresso which makes a difference), as was the earl grey lemon tarte. Looking forward to trying something else next time.
Mmmh so many yummy things - hard to decide ????☕
We just had the macarons, they were remarkable (you must try the pear) and it’s insanely tempting to even just behold the window
WONDERFUL and DELICIOUS!!!
I'm a native Parisian meaning I'm usually picky on pastries but I can say it is hands down the best patisserie in Victoria. I had a "Paris-Brest" and probably one of the best I've had in BC. Thank-you for making food that makes me feel like home.
Can’t say enough good things about La Roux! Such a cute little place! Seating is a little difficult sometimes but the pastries are amazing and they have great coffee and chai! We’ll be back next time we’re in town!
Melt in your mouth macaroons! We stopped in just as we were leaving town after a few days away. So happy they had some patisserie left over. It was a Saturday afternoon (nearing 4:30), so the store was pretty empty. They did have a few fresh items to choose from. Macaroons were vanilla, caramel, key-lime, and chocolate. They were all extremely fresh (except the vanilla). So fresh and amazing taste that it took us back to the patisserie in Paris, France. Highly recommended Can’t wait to come back
The desserts were so beautiful in the window we ventured inside...who knew they would taste even better than they look! Amazing combinations of flavors and artistry makes this a must stop for a sweet treat on the edge of Chinatown.
Amazing gem. Def worth the money
Wow this is an amazing place. I love all the pastries and macrons. The interior is so cute.
My mother ordered this custom panda cake for my 30th birthday, as I love pandas. It was beautifully well done. Fantastic job! Very delicious as well. Thank you, thank you, thank you very much!
Beautiful french pastry shop. Exceptional pastries and coffee, friendly staff.
The service was incredibly prompt and professional. Rebecca was easy to get in touch with over email and was very kind and helpful. The cakes came out exactly as I'd envisioned them and everyone loved them as they were both beautiful and tasty!
Friendly staff. Beautiful and exquisite treats to tickle any pallet. Lovely interior.
This is such a light-filled lovely place, I absolutely love going for the aesthetics as well as the tea, coffee, treats.
Neat little borrough of victoria. If you have a sweet tooth visit it'll be satisfied Edit: Returned for second visit. This place is seriously a fav
The pastries are divine
My little family and I went there to start my birthday with some french patisseries. It was deliciouSSSSSS! Service was outstanding explaining us each cakes. The owner even came to our table and offered us some sweets! Best pastries in Victoria!!
I got the almond croissant. 10/10. Wish i had one of these where i'm from
Great cake from La Roux! Twentieth anniversary cake was gorgeous and also, very delicious! Thanks Rebecca and crew!
Best carrot cake ever! The bakery went above and beyond what I’d expect for a personalized cake - full of flowers, macrons, cookie, and lettering. They even offered to come in on a day they were closed bc of a personal issue. Now that’s A+ service. Thank you Rebecca, Alice, and Hannah for the bday cake.
I liked the lychee cake; it was full of texture and the fruity flavour wasn't overpowering. The passionfruit chocolate tart was ok, the tartshell was too soft, not a very firm cookie crust. We had a mocha to go with our decadent desserts.
So many options!!!
The gluten-free options were too buttery, too sweet with artificial flavors. Not as good as expected based on other reviews! :(
(Translated) The clerks were really warm and nice. Be sure to try the cream brew! Lovely staff. Thank you :) (Original) 정말 점원들 따뜻하고 좋았습니다. 크림브뤨레 꼭 드셔보세요! Lovely staff. Thank you :)
Great tea latte, mouthwatering eclairs.
Wow what beautiful selection of pastries I love this place very friendly staff
Great desert place!! Also the chai latte was really good.
Tried the bread pudding - delicious! The staff also recommended a couple of restaurants, one of which we went to for dinner that evening - Ferris - and it was amazing!
Always a very high standard maintained here, therefore delicious patisserie products!
I discovered this lil gem during our snow week! The macarons, tarts were divine!
Shared a dessert here yesterday with my daughter in law and a latte. Wonderful atmosphere and food. Will go here again for sure.
Best lemon tarts and eclairs I have ever had. The pastry cream in the eclairs is amazing. The decor is adorable and the employees are so friendly and nice.
Always a wonderful experience. The staff here are fantastic...very helpful, attentive, and friendly. Amazing pastries and treats (hard to choose). The tea and coffee is top notch as well. The decor puts it over the top...like stepping in to a beautiful French Patisserie or tea parlour. Immaculately clean every time I visit. Is it a bit on the pricey side...of course, but it deserves to be and the overall experience is well worth it. A special treat in Victoria. Don't miss it!
Wonderful service, fantastic cakes, gorgeous decor.
Awful place
Best place for excellent French deserts
A gem in the China town
A beautiful, charming place to stop in for sweets! Service was great and the atmosphere and setting were cute. We tried the Earl Grey and Lavender Opera Slice and the Creme Brulee which were both as good as they looked! Would come back here and try more.
Great place for French pastries.
(Translated) ☆5/5 ???? The interior of the store is beautiful and the staff are really friendly ???? All the desserts I ate were fresh and delicious ???? There is a lot of vanilla bean in the cream, and the chocolate eclair and thick chocolate cream were delicious! ???? The puff is baked just right, neither hard nor chewy, so it blends well ????

Excellent Pattisser. Very nice decor too. Warming for a cool damp morning.
This place has lovely treats and a beautiful environment. The carrot cake is PERFECT.
Fantastic and delicious home-made cakes -- highly recommended.
What a delightful place! The baking is delish and the owner Emily is such a nice person. You have to try this place and enjoy the decor and atmosphere. They serve specialty coffee also.
Always delicious, this cute, classy café is always a reason to go downtown. Their edibles are as delicious as they are beautiful.
Great tea coffee place with delicious pastries
la Roux Patisserie continues to be one of our favourite coffee shops. Genuine French pastries and gâteaux. Very good staff who follow the Covid-19 protocols
The profiterole was good but the raspberry pistachio cake was "go back for seconds" good. The macarons had nice amount of filling and were the perfect size.
Excellent pastries and the best London Fog I've ever had
Always 5 stars! Everything they make is incredible. Their cakes are TO DIE for ????????
Excellent food. Stopped in for a quick treat so good would recommend
Great place, nice vibe and very delicious desserts!
Best pastries ever.
Had tea and a macaron in this new patisserie. Very pleasant. Took home a pumpkin tart -- OMG, it was incredibly delicious! I need to go back and try more items.
75% of my pay goes towards their almond croissants.
A great place for tea and desserts!
Outstanding service and unbelievably delicious desserts!! I don't normally care for desserts but I am loving this place!! Myself and my sisters will most definitely be back and often!
La Roux is my favourite French patisserie in Victoria. The service is extremely friendly and pleasant, the atmosphere is unbearably cute, and the macarons/pastries/tarts I've tried are unbelievable. The coffee is also incredible. I cannot recommend them enough!

Very slow service. Waited 10 minutes while two girls helped one customer while two people waited, we walked out.
Beautiful place with delicious pastries including macarons, and silk road teas
Very nice little spot. Carrot cake was excellent. Was nice to sit and relax there for a while.
Good baking done in house and a very nice selection of Silk Road teas. This is a quiet spot to enjoy an afternoon tea.
Espresso pistachio tart! So far my favourite dessert from here. The crunch of the tart part makes it perfect and the combination of pistachio flavour and the hint of coffee is just amazing! Absolutely recommend this one whenever you see they serve it lol
Great chic place it bring me back to Europe tea houses. Food is fresh and also their coffee.Love the service at the table.❤❤❤
This is an excellent place to enjoy a home made pastry or cake etc. along with tea or coffee all served in very elegant surroundings. When you've been once, you will want to return soon!
Definitely pricier than most places I go. That being said both the strawberry tart and the white chocolate passionfruit cheesecake was really delicious. I don't really care, but my fiance also LOVED how CUTE the store was.
Excellent pastries, nice friendly staff.
The carrot cake was absolutely awful. Worst I've ever tasted. The cake was extremely bland with no substance whatsoever. The cream cheese icing was tasteless, rubbery and seemed rather stale. This item should be removed from their menu. It needs a complete overhaul. It tasted worse than what I'd expect from a vending machine. I was so disappointed. As well, the server needed some extra training!
Everything we have had here is absolutely delicious ????
Friendly staff, great coffee, and superb deserts. Quality in everything I've had here. The owners Rebbecca and Emily are always going the extra mile to make sure everything is top notch.
Love this bakery. Best carrot cake ever.
Fantastic sweet treats! Amazing customer service. Thank you for your delivery today!
La Roux is home to fresh and vibrant pastries in an intimate setting with a Parisian feel (sans the sarcasm!). A lovely place to enjoy a cup of coffee and indulge in a canelle, macaron, or tart (or, let's face it, all three). A must try for those with a sweet tooth and a yearning for all things butter.
Nice little spot with great creme brulee!
Beautiful environment, friendly staff, and, most importantly exceptional treats! We had chocolate chip cookies and a chocolate cheesecake. YUM!!
I like this place! So delicious -
Dropped-in during a short vacation to Victoria. Only had a chance to try a couple of desserts. WOW! The cake was moist and had many layers of flavour. The tart was perfect. I ordered some cake to take on the plane home; I just wish I could take the bakery with me.
The lady who helped me was great... Patient with all my questions and knowledgeable about the many treats. With so many wonderful options it was hard to make a decision, but my macaroons and tiramisu were delicious.
This place was... Just ok. The cakes and pastries all looked beautiful from the window. The croissants are all quite disappointing, the layers aren't separate and the texture is too bready as opposed to having distinct layers which is a hallmark of French croissants. Additionally, I ordered a black coffee and my cup was only 75% full. The decor is cute but the food and service... There's better places.
The Opera cake was amazing!!
European style pastries that’s really tasty. It felt like I was in Paris/London again. Highly recommended and would definitely come again.
Had a lovely time here with my daughter today. Love the quiet and charming atmosphere. The coffee was perfect as was the tiramisu. Very reasonable prices for such high quality food. Can’t wait to go back!
My mom loved her birthday cake and they delivered right to her door. They made her birthday extra special, and I will definitely order again!
Absolutely amazing, stunning, and friendly. Must have the carrot cake - it's life changing!
Dreadful unedible extremely disappointing Worst experience ever.
Absolutely lovely in every aspect. Bright and warm interior with friendly staff and wonderful desserts.
Excellent! Second to the Duchess in Edmonton.
First and foremost, I want to express my gratitude to the staff at La Roux Patisserie. For my parents' anniversary, I was able to choose a cake (via phone consultation) and have it delivered to a hotel. They even made an exception and delivered the cake on their day off. The cake was absolutely stunning, and I was told it tasted delicious! I would absolutely recommend this bakery to anyone!
Great desserts at good prices, and the services is generally great. I find that the older owner is always a bit gruff and customer service isn't her strong suit. I often get the creme brulee, and it's usually great. On one occasion, the sugar had dissolved on the top and there was nothing to crack. Before reluctantly giving me a different one, she advised me that "that's just what happens as it sits throughout the day," as if I should just accept getting less than what I paid for. If they kept her in the back, this shop would be even more fantastic than it already is.
Such a cute little place. Service was great, desserts were amazing.
Other than the Paris Brest, the profiterole and macarons were overly sweet. All of the macarons also tasted the same.
very nice. coffee, tea and cakes are not expensive, but so delicious.
The best bakery place in Victoria! So tasty! Mmmmmmmmmm.......
Enjoyed the mouth watering brownie cheesecake and a perfectly made flat white. Super cute, very clean and friendly service
Stopped here on a food tour and tried four macarons, all delicious! Staff were great, location was fun, and the macarons were as good as you have heard.
Always a great place to visit. The pastries are too amazing to just have one! The atmosphere and friendly staff is awesome. I love introducing my friends and guests to this amazing bakery
Stopped to pick up some pastries. So very good. I'll stop in again to have a coffee and pastry. I enjoy the neighbourhood.
Some of the best creme brûlée I’ve ever had! A must try if you’re looking for tasty treats in the city!
Delightful atmosphere, and amazing treats. You really can't go wrong here!
how do you call yourself a French bakery and sell croissants that are more like hotdog buns than a flakey pastry
Wonderful staff. So helpful, arrived with my grandson in a stroller to pick up a cake. It was so beautiful I was scared to take it and carry it while pushing stroller. I went and got my car and parked across the street called them and they delivered it to the car. (ps : the cake was delicious)
(Translated) Tasty and refined pastries. The decor and the home make you want to linger. (Original) Pâtisseries savoureuses et raffinées. La déco et l'acceuil donnent envie de s'y attarder.
changing my review because quality decreased dramatically
Very good place!! I was delighted with the place and the food and the cashier is wonderful!! Magnifique!!
Got another cake made the 4th one since they open and I m please again a beauty, and so many charming staff of course no one beats the owner Thank you girls Pierre xxx
The best cafe experiences I've had by far. Hot chocolate on point, coffee amazing and all the sweets incredible. The savory scone is delicious. If you're looking for something sweet, I recommend their toffee pudding with the orange ice cream, as well as their cheesecake
Amazing place! So overwhelmed with the amazing service I received here. I contacted La Roux and spoke with Rebecca to arrange a delivery of pastries for my sister's birthday. Rebecca was very accommodating and kind (if I owned this business I would give her a raise). And my sister loved the pastries! Everyone must try this patisserie.
Really cute place! The owner is super lovely and the desserts are just perfect ????
BEST CARROT CAKE I'VE EVER HAD! They make a carrot cake that is deliciously moist and not sickeningly sweet! No nuts or raisins, which is how carrot cake should be. I tell everyone about this carrot cake - it is amazing. Owner and staff are all wonderful. It's the most lovely little patisserie.
Delicious french deserts, definitely recommend for the ones with a sweet tooth!
I had such a wonderful experience sending a gift to a friend from La Roux. Elsa helped me out, even running to another business nearby to grab an item for the gift basket she was helping me put together for a friend's 40th birthday. The whole experience was friendly, supportive, thoughtful and the treats (I hear!) were divine as well. Top notch. Thanks to you all!
Awesome macaroons!
I happened to walk by this little patisserie while walking the streets of sunny downtown Victoria this weekend. I can honestly say there is nothing like it in the city! The decor is wonderful and gives off such a European feel. The atmosphere is very Parisian.The breakfast pastries are fantastic. Decadent, buttery and a fabulous way to treat yourself at a reasonable price. The desserts in the window are absolutely adorable and somehow manage to taste even better than they look. Overall, the whole patisserie is clean and inviting with 5 star service from the co-owners Emily and Rebecca who were both super friendly. I really appreciate them going the extra mile and it's also really great that everything is made fresh in house. Would definitely recommend!!! I'll be back to visit on my next cheat day ;)
Decent bakery. Quality seems to fluctuate. The first time I had the caramel brownie it was fantastic, but time after that, it was completely stale. I was especially disappointed at my last visit to the bakery. I ended up not liking the bread pudding, apologized and gave it back, and wasn't offered a refund for it. So essentially, I had to 1) pay for the first item that I didn't enjoy at all and couldn't eat and 2) to swap it for something else, which ended up being the aforementioned stale brownie. Haven't been back since....
Excellent cakes Horrible croissant !!! Very poor service. We asked them for extra hot drink, they brought it medium hot (frustrating)!!! We asked them to heat the croissant. She came telling us" I put them for 1min". They were just cold. It's a shame! Please improve your service and allow us to enjoy being served in your coffee place with bright waitresses. Thx
Very unique locally owned coffee shop with a variety of croissants and pastries made on site. A must visit.
Among the best in Victoria. Highly recommend this place!
(Translated) It is one of the first cakes of my life that I bought as a good amateur pastry chef myself. A pure delight. The triple chocolate was not only beautiful, but very good. With subtleties, flavors and above all beautiful textures. A real gem in Victoria. (Original) C'est un des premiers gâteaux de ma vie que j'ai acheté étant moi-même bonne pâtissière amateur. Un pur délice. Le triple chocolat fut non seulement beau, mais bel et bien bon. Avec des subtilités, des saveurs et surtout de belles textures. Un vrai bijou a Victoria.
Very nice setting. The place is very nice and clean. Desserts area amazing and the staff is very friendly. Want to go for dessert on a date?? This place is the spot.
Chocolate cake is freshly made daily, cake is moist and creamy, not too sweet like other bakeries. Their croissant is also excellent, has a lot of texture to it, rather than just flaky. A highly recommended bakery.
Stopped in for some pastries and I was seriously wowed by all of the delicious looking desserts, truly had hoped to stop in to try more. Definitely recommend!
Pastry as Art. Lovely room and outdoor seating as well. Staff welcoming and pastry is made onsite.
Amazing treats
Ordered a iced latte, tasted essentially like McDonald's. It was pretty much slightly coffee flavored milk. The front counter staff, possibly the owner, was very rude and un-welcoming. Younger lady who brought me my coffee was very polite and friendly though.
This place is a gem!! My tart was perfect. The Patisserie is so beautiful and the treats fabulously diverse-hard to choose.
A little over a week before my daughters wedding I came down with covid. I was supposed to fly into Victoria and bake for the wedding but had to cancel everything . I was devastated and heart broken. I randomly selected this bakery through google and over the phone asked for help! I was overwhelmed with the fantastic service, wonderful selection of pastries and they even managed a small wedding cake. They came in under budget and sent me pictures before the delivery of everything. The guests devoured the high quality pastries. I could not have asked for anything more, I look forward to my next trip to Victoria and visiting the bakery in person.
really special classy atmosphere and friendly staff
Stopped in here on Thursday last week and was looking to order a small sponge cake for the next day. I had read the reviews and it looked favorable. it also appears on the website that the sponge cake is one of their ´staple´ cakes. There were two girls behind the counter. When I asked if they had a small sponge cake the first girl asked if I wanted it for « today »? I said no for tomorrow. This seemed to cause great confusion and she went to the back to see if that was possible. The 2nd girl then asked us some further questions and unlike the first seemed to want to try to accommodate us. Then the first girl returned and told us all their orders for the next day were already full. There was a dialogue between the two girls with the first one overriding the second one. It was a final decision. We left feeling a bit bewildered. If there is something there’s no shortage of in Victoria, it’s bakeries staffed by helpful people wanting your business. Sadly this didn’t seem to be the case here on this particular day.
The best feature of this place in my opinion is the cake of the day! Always fresh, light and tasty (no matter the flavor). Most importantly, the costumer service here has always been warm and welcoming.
Nothing special and their drinks are WAAAAAAY overpriced, not to mention the cost of their baked goods. Nice decor though.
Best coffee, goodies and staff ????
Pastries were good but really miss the ones that had last year. Last year we visited twice and had lime tarts with dark chocolate and had salted caramel tarts. They were absolutely amazing and we were craving them so went back but apparently menu has changed and they will not be making them anymore. A little disappointing.
Even though the shop was closed for a movie they accomadated my cake order. The cake was delicious, best cheesecake we've had! Daphne is an excellent pastry chef and we will be ordering furture cakes from here. Service was very friendly.
Excellent service & great food
Beautiful patisserie with delicious desserts! Would come back. We got something with pistachio and it was so delicious, light, and creamy.
Tried the Paris Brest… Amazing! They use a special fatty butter that Canadians can only import through a lottery. Isn’t overtly sweet. Perfection!
Very original setting. A good stop to make to rest from a sightseeing walk or to disconnect from your daily routine. Amazing desert variety. Staff super friendly. Great tasting Espresso and reasonably priced If I didn't live all the way in Montreal I would go every day.
(Translated) Google review reported Cream Brunei. The macaroon coco topped with toppings was so delicious and the fruit was perfect. Cream boule is so delicious. Thanks to Victoria's trip was perfect. I'll be back next time in Victoria. Thank you. JMT !!!! (Original) 구글 리뷰보고 크림브륄레 시켰다. 토핑으로 올라간 마카롱 꼬끄 너무 맛있고 과일도 완벽했다. 크림브륄레 너무 맛있다. 덕분에 빅토리아 여행 완벽했다. 다음에 또 빅토리아오면 들릴게요 감사합니다 JMT!!!!
Great pastries, liked the tarte citron in particular. Was staying with relatives just down the street from here while visiting Victoria in June, tarte citron and two different versions of cheesecake were lunch out at Sooke Potholes Park the one day. Saw in another review that someone didn't like the cheesecake. Suspect that's a question of definition/habituation - there are probably at least a hundred and one traditional versions of cheesecake, and no one makes mashed potatoes, or anything really, quite like mum and/or nana make mashed potatoes.
Classy French theme bakery. The staff are very friendly and they have the sweetest creme brulee in town.
Delicious as always. Love the profiteroles and Paris Best
I needed a small birthday cake for toddler on very short notice. They made the most exquisite, beautiful, fun and tasty cake. It was definitely made with love (and great ingredients). I could not recommend them enough!
Good cheesecake.
Great food, great prices and very good service.. A must visit in Victoria
Got my wedding cake from here. There are always delicious and unique treats to find.
I hade a pistacchio raspberries cake for my wife's birthday and it was deliciously delicious ???? Best pastry shop in the island. Trés trés bon Merci beaucoup
The culinary creations birthed in this place are like tasting the spawn of a butter angel and a chocolate unicorn! Transport your tastebuds into a dreamworld where French puffed pastry mingles with exotic fruits in a sultry waltz that’s sure to titilate even the most discerning palate!
I am beyond impressed with la roux, they have some serious talent! They make everything so perfectly and so beautiful! Thank you again for the most beautiful birthday cake I have ever laid eyes on!
What an absolute joy ! Rebecca and Emily you are a gift ! Best cheesecake ever ????.
Amazing interior design, tasty food and the price is very affordable. The staff were extremely friendly and offered to bring food to our table although this is a cafe. Highly recommended.
Rebecca, Emily, and their staff are wonderful to work with and deliver an amazing product time after time. I have had their baking for my couples’ weddings and for friends’ birthdays and each time I’m blown away by the quality and flavour of their items not matter how small or large the order.
Amazing food and prices. Such a cute place. Loved the set up. Will definitely go there again. Baking was amazing.
I hate how close I live to this place. Everything is so tasty! I'm obsessed with the vegan cake and I'm not even vegan, it's that good.
Lovely, bright place with excellent treats and yummy hot chocolate. A great place to meet friends to visit and sip tea. Could be a great place to start a walking date, get what you like and then walk around downtown!
More fun if you're with someone - but not required... Remember when you were a kid and you couldn't decide what you wanted because everything was so enticing? That. Times 10. Everything looks good. Everything tastes incredible. The only issue is what to get. So. My suggestion is to bring minimum one more person. The staff will cut a tart, a piece of cake or even a cookie into portions so you can share. Because the goods are so rich, they're very filling and you can only eat a little bit of each. Trust me. You want to try everything. Pace yourself and go frequently. The prices are actually less than I anticipated and the staff are the sweetest, knowledgeable, adorable people you'll meet. You'll think you were in Ville Marie in Montreal. Today we tried the tart citron, the white chocolate passion fruit cheesecake and the chocolate mousse! The best part is you can pair it with your favourite hot or cold beverage. Tea... Coffee... Latte... Cold milk... Water? Whatever? It's très bon! I'll be back again soon... I've found my cabane à sucre! LOL
I just read the recent article of La Roux Patisserie in the Oct/Nov Boulevard and it reminded me how much I love this European getaway. I used to work around the corner and La Roux was my daily "go to" place. Highly recommended.
Best services ever! I ordered my cousin a birthday cake from here and they delivered it with no problems! For someone who lives in Vancouver this was the best service! And the cake looked amazing and tasted great!
I can't praise this business enough. Rebecca and her team are so amazing and always come through to make special occasions for my business and personal life a success. Thank you!!!!
Unique, fresh, and tasty desserts! A luxurious experience, & they have great coffee too! Highly recommend the Lavender cake and black currant tart!
Delightful and delicious! I come here with my daughter to practice our French and we have never felt more welcome!
(Translated) Disappointed: hardly any traditional French pastries apart from Paris Brest and lemon tarts, which can be found all over Canada. I took a chocolate "nun", which had in common with a nun only the name and quickly made the presentation: choux pastry with a strange taste, no real icing, a mix of chocolate filling and a coffee custard .. overall it was a more disappointing than a french supermarket pastry shop (Original) Déçu : aucune ou presque des pâtisseries traditionnelle française en dehors des Paris Brest et tartelettes au citron, qu'on trouve partout au Canada.. J'ai pris une "religieuse" au chocolat, qui n'avait de commun avec une religieuse que le nom et vite fait la présentation : pâté a choux au goût bizarre, pas de vrai glaçage, un mix de garniture au chocolat et d'une crème pâtissière au café.. dans l'ensemble, c'était un plus décevant qu'une pâtisserie de supermarché français
Our favourite French style pastry and cafe place in Victoria. Their desserts are divine.
Got the creme brule was super delicious and green tea the staff were great the owner friendly obviously if you're from Calgary you are friendly . Will be back awesome experience
Nice place, yummy desserts, coffee is weak but doesn't matter.
Excellent! My new favourite spot. Excellent selection of Silk Road teas and beyond amazing desserts..the owner is so kind just like the rest of the staff. So hard to not order everything, it is all delicious.
What can I say....yum, yum. I will be back here
Exquisite pastries! Great customer service, they make orders for parties and events too. Great little place with cosy atmosphere.
Extremely rude counter staff. The lady behind the counter rushed us and gave us nasty looks. Wow! Need to train the staff with customer service.
(Translated) The staff is friendly and the chef introduced me from Seoul. It is delicious and the inside of the cafe is so lovely. I start the morning with a good feeling. (Original) 직원분도 친절하고, 쉐프님이 서울에서 왔다고 소개도 해주셨어요~~ 맛있고 카페내부도 너무 이뻐요 아침을 기분좋게 시작합니다 *.* 또 오고싶어요
I called La Roux at the last minute on a Monday morning & they not only boxed up a pastry selection for me, but by mid day they got it delivered to the hospital where my brother was having his birthday. Great customer service & great food. Thanks, La Roux!
Amazing pastry shop with delicious stuff! Not cheap, but croissants are really good.
They made a birthday carrot cake which was awesome. The ladies working there were so so nice when I called in an when we arrived to pick up the cake and treats. Some of the best customer service I've ever experienced.
best tea and service
Good variety of french pastries and coffee. The almond croissant, pistachio cake and flat white were delicious. The dirty chai latte was less to our liking being too sweet for a drink where no sugar was requested. Seating available during covid.
Impressive pastries. Very authentic and visually pleasing. On the expensive side. From the bottom, Tiramisu, cheesecake, chocolate pear tart.
Outstanding French dessert pastries and coffee.
A 5 ***** review for La Roux!!! They took an old family recipe and transformed it into a wonderful cake topper and gorgeous cupcakes for our wedding! We were thrilled...Thank-You!!!
Hello, Bonjour! Thank you for providing a slice of Heaven on a plate. Wow! Authentic. Delicious. Shout out to the Pasty Choux Chefs !!!!
(Translated) Nice and stylish place. I loved the sweets. Friendly and helpful attendants. Highly recommended. (Original) Local agradável e estiloso. Adorei os doces degustados. Atendentes simpáticas e prestativas. Altamente recomendado.
Great treats, service could be friendly though
