The Laduree is located on the second floor of Holt Renfrew, right next to the shoe section.

It’s a small area with a handful of beautiful seating but all your favourite macarons are available here (along with some snacks and high tea).

We had some tea and had some macarons. We had the Jardin Bleu Royal which is a blend of Chinese and Sri Lankan black teas and has wild strawberry, rhubarb, cherry, corn flower petals and marigold flowers. We also had the Jasmine – made with Chinese green tea and jasmine petals from Yin Hao Garden (recognised for its exceptional quality).

Laduree is one of the reasons macarons grew in popularity here in North America – starting off their New York location that has massive lineups. Glad to see it expands into places like Vancouver and Toronto!

I’d definitely recommend coming here. It’s more central and not too busy (at least, when we came). Laduree definitely knows how to put beauty in every single detail – right down to the chocolate squares and cutlery.
