Duchesse
About
Duchesse, on Réunion, is a pastry address at 38 Rue Marius et Ary Leblond in Saint-Pierre 97410, on the island's southern coast.
First-time visitors should expect a pastry counter rather than a full restaurant, with the day's range best picked up earlier rather than late. The shop earns a 4.9/5 rating from 85 reviews, a strong record built on a modest volume of feedback. It keeps clear hours: Tuesday to Friday from 07:00 to 17:00, and Saturday from 09:00 to 17:00, with Monday closed. Saint-Pierre sits on the southern side of Réunion, within reach of Le Tampon and Saint-Leu along the coastal road.
Arriving from Saint-Gilles-les-Bains or Saint-Denis means a drive of some length, since Réunion has no railway and travel around the island is by car or bus on coastal roads. The euro is the currency, as Réunion has been a French overseas department since 1946.
The volcanic setting of Réunion, part of the Mascarene archipelago east of Madagascar, means distances that look short on a map take longer over mountain roads. Visitors based in Cilaos or Saint-Paul should plan the trip to Saint-Pierre around the coastal route rather than a direct line inland.
