Gourmand Pâtisserie

4.7(33 reviews)

About

Gourmand Pâtisserie, on Mauritius, sits on Royal Road, opposite Tamil Temple Grand Bay MU, 30510. First-time visitors should expect a pastry counter rather than a sit-down café, with the temple opposite serving as a handy marker on the coast road. The setting places it within Grand Baie, one of the island's northern hubs.

A 4.7 out of 5 average from 33 reviews suggests a steady local following for the pastries. The counter is a stop-off point for those travelling between Port Louis and the northern beaches, and Grand Baie itself is one of the nearby places that frame a visit. The location on Royal Road means it sits along a route that connects the capital with the northern resorts.

Reaching Gourmand Pâtisserie from the main resorts is straightforward, since Grand Baie sits on the northern coast road and the surrounding routes link it to the wider region. Port Louis, Flic en Flac, Pereybère, Beau-Vallon, Le Morne, Belle Mare and Mahébourg are among the nearby places that give a sense of its position on the island.

For a visitor, the cooler, drier months between June and September are the most comfortable for travelling around Mauritius, while the cyclone season runs from November to April. Pastries are best picked up fresh in the morning, and the temple opposite makes the spot easy to find on the coast road.
