Laduree Georgetown

Interesting place. Certainly not for everyone but a neat place to stop in for an occasional treat. The chocolates were delicious, albeit quite expensive. We stopped in on a whim while walking past after dinner so definitely not a destination restaurant for us. The decor was a bit over-the-top but the employees were all pleasant and efficient. I'm not sure I'll ever go back to this place- and that's not really a dig on them, it's just that I don't typically spend $75 for a small bag of chocolate treats. Even as delicious as they were.

This cafe caters to a specific audience thus I doubt it would appeal to the mass market. You either leave very satisfied or you won’t come again. The pastries look great. The drinks on the other hand are pretty average. The servers were all very nice and attentive. For some people that alone would warrant another visit.

We ordered breakfast and tea! The eggs Benedict was good, but not anything groundbreaking. However, the tea, pastries and macarons were fantastic! The tea option is per person, but could be split between two if you wanted. It comes with 6 macarons to go, with plenty of options to choose from. Everything is beautifully decorated and flavorful!

I've come here multiple times, sometimes to eat in (high tea) and sometimes just to grab some goodies and go. The service is always fantastic! The dining area is tight and can feel pretty cramped when it's full, but it doesn't change the flavors or quality. I know you're paying for the Ladurée experience and that's not cheap, but the price of eating in can feel a little tainted by the tightness of the space.

World’s best macarons!!!! I literally tried many macarons but nothing can beat them. Everything tastes so good. My most favourite one is the Rose macaroon it literally tastes like a rose. I wonder how they get the flavour so perfectly. Even the orange flavour it literally tastes like orange. If one could to test them blind folded they would not believe that is a macaroon. The texture is good and has always been the same consistency. Do look out for the seasonal flavours they are too good as well. Also the hot chocolate the best in town. The croissants, canele, hazelnut pastry and sandwiches everything is so good. They only have few locations like 3 in New York, 1 in Washington DC and the other in Los Angeles. What I heard it that every three days these macaroons would fly all the way from Paris. Definitely try the Rose.

Excellent place in Georgetown! Loved stumbling upon this as we walked past, we're on holiday & as this is our last day in DC so it was a lovely treat. The Parisian & Salmon Croissants were delicious & just the right portion size. The lady who served us was a delight as well, she's a credit to your business 🙂👏🏻.
