Le Pointu - Lausanne's vibrant brunch and bar scene gem  in rue neuve 2, vaud, switzerland.

Nestled in the heart of Lausanne, Le Pointu offers a dynamic blend of light, seasonal dishes alongside a carefully curated selection of homemade breads, coffees, wines, and inventive cocktails. This bar and restaurant creates a calm yet lively spot perfect for brunch enthusiasts, foodies, and trend-conscious travelers seeking an authentic Swiss experience with a modern twist.

The interior boasts a spacious, beautifully angled building with an inviting décor that includes long family-style communal tables, encouraging social connection in a cozy atmosphere. Outdoor seating is available for sunny days, and the venue is dog-friendly, ensuring that everyone feels welcome. While the location buzzes with energy, some guests mention that the winter months bring a chilly street wind due to frequent comings and goings, suggesting that a curtain installation could enhance comfort.

Le Pointu is celebrated for its exquisite French toast made from thick brioche bread, perfectly fluffy and crispy, often accompanied by supplemental poached eggs. The nourishing combo of bacon, eggs, and bread delights many visitors. The eggs Benedict here is another crowd-pleaser, featuring rich and balanced flavors. Coffee lovers may find the espresso macchiato priced higher compared to other Alpine regions, but the overall beverage menu includes excellent cappuccinos, wines, beers, and expertly crafted cocktails to suit every palate.

Patrons praise Le Pointu’s friendly service and cozy atmosphere, with many recommending it as one of the best brunch spots that open on Sundays in Lausanne. However, some guests note that the service can be moderately attentive and food arrival times longer during peak hours. Price points are considered on the higher side for certain items, yet the quality of food often justifies the expense. Noise level and occasional cold gusts in winter have been highlighted as areas for improvement. Overall, the sentiment is mixed but leans positive, making it a worthwhile visit for group dining or casual meals.

Trendy brunch spot, this restaurant is wonderfully located. Unfortunately, it means there's a lot of coming and going and, in winter, that means an unpleasant cold gust of street wind: maybe invest in a curtain. The staff was moderately interested in serving our table and mildly polite. The food is excellent but took a long time to arrive and was expensive. Not sure I'll go again.

I was astonished that the place offers such an average espresso macchiato for 3.90 CHF (or 4.40€). This is clearly an overcharge, especially when you can enjoy far better coffee elsewhere in the Alps (Italy, Austria, and Germany) for half the price.

On a more positive note, I had my first French toast here, and it was simply exquisite. The homemade bread was perfectly fluffy and crispy, and my supplemental poached egg (2.50 CHF) was flawless. However, the cinnamon apple compote topping, while possibly subject to change, didn’t quite work for me. It slightly overshadowed the otherwise perfect dish. Thankfully, the mascarpone, maple syrup, and the French toast itself were all excellent.

Very nice place to eat. The building is a beautiful, angled building. The interior nicely decorated and spacious. The middle of the room has long family-style/communal tables.
The food is very nice, the French toast is thick, brioche bread. Excellent combo of bacon, eggs and bread. The eggs Benedict are really dear, very well rounded tastes. Highly recommend a stop here to eat. The service is good, quite a few servers there and they’re attentive to the needs of the customers. Bravo and thank you
