01 / ABOUT THE PLACE

About this place

The galette des rois is an early standout at La Pensee, with one visitor calling it worthy of a specialist shop. They recalled pastry layers that were substantial yet light, and still crisp on the 3 day. Another diner praised the balance of sweetness in the chocolate version. A visitor also reported finding a variety different from the usual one on a separate visit, suggesting the selection can vary with the timing.

For bread, the walnut anpan and burdock bread also left an impression. Visitors remembered the walnut anpan for its pairing of walnuts and brioche dough, and the burdock bread for its crisp base and chewy dough. The same visitor described the gâteau basque as having a very creamy, flavourful chestnut filling. With both breads and baked sweets to choose from, there is plenty to catch the eye.

La Pensee is open Fridays and Saturdays from 9:00 to 16:30, and offers takeaway. On a weekend visit, you can weigh up a loaf of bread against a galette des rois or a cake.
