La Galette Pâtisserie — Restaurant in Jalisco

Pure French Baking. If you’re not sharing an assortment of these pastries in the morning with your vacationing crew, you are missing out on one of the most important experiences in Puerto Vallarta.

We’re not huge fans of typical Mexican baking which is why these are such an incredible addition to the culinary landscape. The pecan sticky buns and pan au chocolate are divine. We couldn’t love this place more. It’s good it’s a few blocks away, so not quite as convenient as their Basilio location used to be (it closed over Covid), but close enough we can impress our guests with a lovely morning.

If you’re going out for supper and are told to bring dessert, they have a great selection of finer pastries too....

Fresh, daily baked French pastry and fruit tarts. I’m not a huge pastry person, but someone recommended this place to me. Fruit tarts were just amazing. Fresh, crunchy crust topped with not overly sweet custard and an assortment of fruits is definitely the best I’ve had. Even the fanciest bakery can’t match small-batch, freshly baked pastries from a local bakery.

Except for the taste of baked goods, nothing tells you how extraordinary this place is. Definitely grab a few pieces to go when you pass by in the morning. There aren’t many seatings. I’d recommend grabbing some on the go or walk to the cafestodos around the corner for seating, AC, and complicated coffee orders to go with...

This is a precious jewel in our city. BUT, we tried the personal-sized chicken pies for the first time tonight. And, honestly, they were gross. First, they were made with a frozen vegetable mix. Second, we don't know if the acidic taste (aka preservative) came from the frozen vegetables, or whether it was added to the pies. But it made them, for us, inedible. On the brighter side, all the quiches and sweet things in this super-small gem, are delicious. But please, fix your chicken pie. If it tasted normal we'd buy them...
