About La Galette

Tuck into savory French galettes and flaky patisserie in Nedlands without boarding a flight to Paris. Morning regulars line up early for espresso and scratch-made butter croissants, snagging outdoor tables before the counter display empties. For lunch, the kitchen turns out crisp galettes like the Basque—folded around prosciutto, free-range egg, cheese, and baby spinach—alongside sweet dessert crepes. The pastry cabinet stays stacked with layered mille-feuille and sultana-packed escargot pastries.

  • Authentic Galettes & Crepes: Savory buckwheat folds like the Basque and Complete alongside sweet dessert options.
  • Handmade Viennoiserie: Scratch-made butter croissants, vanilla mille-feuille slices, and fruit tarts daily.
  • BYO Friendly: Dine-in guests are welcome to bring their own drinks for casual lunch catchups.

  • Handmade French Croissants

    Pastries feature flaky, artisanal handmade butter croissants and delicate treats made from scratch rather than factory methods.

    The croissants are actual butter croissants which are handmade and one of the best that I have tasted in a while!

    French Vanilla Slice is amazing too. Pastry is baked superbly and custard is delicious

  • Eclairs

    The pastry selection is also fantastic - they offer petit tarts and eclairs that are just the right size for an afternoon treat.

  • Baguette Sandwich

    I particularly enjoyed the baguette sandwich, which was crispy and freshly baked

  • Snail Pastry

    I had a dessert called a snail and a sausage roll. The snail is like a vegemite scroll, but with sultanas and a little bit of custard. It wasn't too rich with fillings though. The pastry was nice and soft and it felt fresh.
