Lucettegrace
235 South Salisbury St, Raleigh, NC
Crema's Take
“Lucettegrace is a Downtown Raleigh gem where locals keep returning for inventive pastries that go beyond the basics—think baklava croissants, yuzu tarts, and Dubai chocolate cake alongside thoughtful cold brew and espresso drinks. The warm, attentive staff and inviting atmosphere make it equally perfect for a lingering coffee date or grabbing something special to go, and their catering work shows they take the same care with every detail, whether you're ordering a single macaron or planning your wedding dessert spread.”

Just a review from a common pleb. We ordered 6 desserts for our family to sample. The macaron was lovely and the yuzu tart was pleasant but not extraordinary. We enjoyed the atmosphere, the staff, and general presentation of the pastries. However, the other desserts had too many competing flavors within each pastry. The consensus from our family was, “that was interesting.” To each their own!
One of the best pastries I had. We visited Downtown Raleigh for 2 nights. 2 days in a row we came back to tried different pastries which I did but my husband only ordered the Baklava croissants. It’s sooo good. Coffee is great too. They make it fresh because you can see them making it at the back.
Absolutely love Lucettegrace! I have been coming here for years, not as often now that I no longer work downtown but anytime I’m down there I will make a point to stop in a get something, anything. Every dessert is so elegant and delicious, the lunch options are great too- definitely try the curry chicken croissant. The Nun Ya Biscuit is freaking amazing, be sure to heat it up a little too. My absolute favorite item- the Lucettegrace Iced Coffee. I’ve tried just about everything and have never been disappointed.
I got an iced coffee, ham & cheese croissant(they warmed it up for me), & a cookie. My husband also got an iced coffee & a Dubai chocolate cake (i forgot the exact name) but it was soo delicious. Staff was super nice, the place was clean & organized. I would love to come back
Lucettegrace catered a dessert bar for our wedding and it was absolutely a highlight for us and our guests. Daniel was so nice to work with, he went above and beyond for us to deliver and set up the desserts. There was 0 compromise on the beauty or taste of the desserts despite over 4 hours of travel! He really helped execute our vision and it has ended up being something our guests still talk about. We cannot recommend them enough!!
