The macaroons are amazing. The butter tart okay. The coffee mediocre. Still gets four stars because I went for the macaroons.

Amazing! Got some Macarons and Croissants and they were really good. Also really really enjoyed the coffee I got here! Was having some issues booking a taxi and they kindly also let me use the WiFi!

Great local bakery west of Edmonton city centre.
They've got an array of lovely baked goods decently priced whether it be cakes, custard, macaroons, etc, they've got it all.

Great bake shop located on Edmonton’s trendy 124 Street. The key lime tart is a personal favourite. Very busy on weekends and parking is always a challenge. Make sure you park in legal zones and pay as required because the parking patrol is quite diligent in this area.

It breaks my heart to have to change my review of Duchess to only a 1 star review. (Sorry for the long review)I had a serious 10+year love-affair with everything from Duchess. I even signed up for almost all of their Atelier classes. We went for their viewing of their participation in a french patisserie competition and even attended their tasting events. We couldn't have been happier when they opened Little Duchess which made access to heavenly treats even easier. Unfortunately, noticeable changes rolled in after Giselle and her partner left in 2022. First these changes were small - replacement of ingredients in signature tarts, then sizes and presentation of these monthly signature tarts started changing, along with pricing changes, and finally, monthly feature pastries started being replaced with less elegant and less tasty options. I had to step away as every Duchess Bakeshop visit would bring dissapointment. Today, after a year and a half away, I happened to be on 124th Street and so I decided to pop-in. The sadness I felt when viewing their pastry line up - pastries in their display case are lacking the dainty, visually appeling and delicious french patisserie appeal that was there prior to 2023. I decided to take home 2 long time staples (keylime tart and their lemon meringue). The pasteries tasted so different and so I decided to dust off my Duchess recipe book and made my own keylime tart ...drumroll...my Duchess recipe book version, tasted better than the store bought version...how is this possible? Anyone who has been a Duchess regular prior to them getting famous, and prior to 2023, will understand where I am coming from. I hope this review will help the new-ish owners re-evaluate their direction - please bring back the glory of Duchess with the tasty, delicious and visually appealing pastries from the past.
My 5-star review of Duchess prior to 2022 : Best baked goods in Yeg...a bit pricey but worth every penny. Mouthwatering macarons, cakes, tarts and baked goods. If you love chocolate cake try their Duke cake. Their monthly features never disappoint. I only wish they would consider bringing back their verrines - especially their choc mousse, coconut and raspberry flavorful jars of heaven.

Most of the counters and shelves were empty. Very disappointed.
Best bakery in the city as far as I'm concerned. An oatmeal chocolate cookie may not normally sound like much...until you have it from here!

I'm actually one of the construction workers (HVAC/sheet metal) helping to do the new upgrade to your bakery. Gonna look so nice when it's done! And my wife loves your goods :) 💗

Elegant, consistent, and absolutely divine. The macarons and pastries are world-class, and the atmosphere is like a charming Parisian café. A must-stop for anyone with a sweet tooth.

Very friendly staff, what an atmosphere there. Was there for my college project, the manager, Alex, was so helpful in providing the help. Tried their macrons, sooo creamy, especially the one with white cream.
