Treat Yourself to a Pistachio Eclair at Bakery Lorraine

March 25, 2014 10:40 am

Delectable pastries are easy to find in San Antonio; just head to Bakery Lorraine. Founded by a California couple who wanted to bring their baking prowess to Texas, Bakery Lorraine fills its display cases with chewy cookies, pecan sticky buns, scones, flaky croissants, and other favorites. Where else are you going to find a pistachio eclair?

Here, the menu changes all the time, almost daily. The savory tarts, sandwiches, and quiches are a nice lunch option, especially when followed by a sweet macaroon (be sure to take a six-pack of macaroons home with you!). Get a coffee or espresso and relax in the comfy cafe or take a seat on the porch. You can even make special occasion more special by ordering your cake here.

Bakery Lorraine is open Mondays through Fridays, 6:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m.; Saturdays, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.; Sundays, 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.
