First time at Bakery Lorraine. The restaurant was super cute and very clean. The line took awhile, the staff weren’t too helpful, the food was good, and it was a bit pricy. My breakfast sandwich had a very small thin sausage Patty. I did love their potatoes and their orange juice was really good. Their macaroons were also good.

This is my favorite bakery and I always make sure to eat here when I’m visiting. Though the food is good, what really makes Loraine’s worth going to is the pastry’s and treats! and nice calm place to get breakfast or brunch while catching up on work or with a friend. The almond croissant is one of my favorites though it is on the sweeter side so if you’re not in the mood for sweets I’d go with a regular croissant. I love their macaroons, and their fruit tarts! For lunch the tomato basil soup with the cheesy bread is one of my personal favorites! The breakfast sandwich is pretty basic and what’d you’d expect. Warning the coffee normally comes really hot when you get it to go.

I came here and absolutely fell in love with the french toast. It is hands down the best thing I've ever put in my mouth. It's so soft and fluffy on the inside and crispy on the outside. It was perfect. I also got the fruit tart and the strawberry rhubarb tart and they were delicious as well. There was a very long line but it was so worth it.

The potatoes served with the quiche were divine. The quiche was best I’ve tasted. My daughter ate up all the s’mores tart which was rich enough and not too sweet. Everything was yummy and the service was great. I just wished they served the whole menu later like 6 or 7pm.

I’ve never been a big bakery or pastry fan but this place never disappoints!!! I’ve gone a few times to spend quality time with my father in the ambiance of the Pearl and decided I need to write a review. I loved the pride cookies they had for this month, I love that they always seem to have something different to try! My new favorite is the Orange Blackberry muffin I tried this past Sunday morning, it was delicious!!! Definitely a great stop to try (:

Very nice bakery and coffee shop.
We visited on a Saturday just before noon and the place was packed, there was a very long line to order from the counter. (you can only order from the counter).
We sat a the communal table that was dirty and no one came to clean it. (I used my own wet wipes to clean it).
We had the French Toast and Chicken salad on a croissant.
Everything was very good. The croissant was fresh and super flakey.
I did really enjoyed their black coffee I must say.
The staff at the counter is nice and friendly, not so much for the floor staff.

Always amazing desserts and food. A bit pricey but understandably so, the pastries are detailed and delicious and the food is gourmet. The problems lie with their service every-time I come here the workers are rude and seemed annoyed. This makes for a very unpleasant environment. The line is always so long which is great, there is a lot of business. But the process is not efficient, they need to figure out a new way to get more people in and out faster! Would only recommend on early weekday morning’s before the rush. If you do go look at the menu before so you don’t have to annoy the staff…

We had an excellent experience. My wife had the avacodo toast and poached egg with smoked salmon. I had an everything croissant with smoked salmon. We both said we out ordered the other. The coffee was delicious. We went on a Saturday morning and enjoyed watching the Pearl Farmers Market setup outside. I highly recommend.

Delicious cake, delightful vibe, excellent customer service! The cafe smells so good when you walk in, that you'll be drawn to buy something from the bakery even if you walked in for coffee. Which is exactly what happened with us. When serving me my red velvet cake, the guy accidentally moved the top chocolate of the other slice and gave it to me for free since the shape got messed up. Such a sweet guy. Now for the actual taste, the white chocolate slice on top of the red velvet was really delicious, and the cream was super fluffy and not too sweet. The tiramisu cake was also delicious and not too sweet, which is perfect. Their indoor outdoor seating all looked very aesthetic. Looks like a great place to study/work at or just chill with friends (which is what I did). Saw lots of families with little kids there as well. Will have to try the macaroons the next time I go. Would definitely go back again. Highly recommend for the vibe and the bakery (haven't tried the coffee yet so don't know much about that).

This place was a nice stop for a snack in the Pearl District of San Antonio. My husband & I came here while on our honeymoon prior to big dinner plans, but as we were walking through the city; we got a little hungry. We shared a patty melt, which was very delicious and we halved a homemade pop-tart too, which was also really yummy! We had never had "homemade" pop-tarts (only store bought) and we were super impressed! The iced lattes were perfect too. We're not those people who get flavors or sweeteners added to ours, but we were surprised with the strong flavor because back home in middle Tennessee; we seem to have to add an extra shot of espresso or else; our iced lattes where we're from taste real milky, but these from Bakery Lorraine were absolutely amazing. We even ordered some macaroons to take home!
