Ordering Guide & Tips
At La Madeleine, a cup of the signature Tomato Basil Soupe costs $5.89–$5.99, a Quiche Lorraine costs $9.99–$10.19, and a butter croissant costs $3.49. La Madeleine’s own website publishes no prices at all, so every price on this page comes from the chain’s own online ordering platform — the one lamadeleine.com itself links to — checked at cafés in Dallas, Texas, Alexandria, Virginia and New Orleans, Louisiana in October 2026. Of the 198 items on the menu, 166 carry a verified price, running from $1.99 for a single madeleine or macaron to $29.99. Below is the full La Madeleine menu: breakfast served all day, the bakery case, soupes, salades, sandwiches, entrées, cakes by the slice and whole, and the calories the chain publishes for 110 items.
How the La Madeleine Menu Is Organized
La Madeleine is a French bakery-café, and its menu is built in three parts: the café menu (breakfast, sandwiches, salades, soupes and entrées), the bakery (pâtisserie, viennoiserie and breads, cookies and cakes), and the French Market, a retail shelf of the chain’s own jarred soupes, bottled dressings, confiture and coffee beans to take home. The menu on this page follows the chain’s own structure exactly — 17 categories and 198 items, in the order La Madeleine files them.
One convention runs through the whole menu: many prices are set by a size selection. Soupes are priced by the Cup or the Bowl, sandwiches by the Half or the Whole, cakes by the Slice or the Whole, and coffees by the Regular 12 oz or the Large 20 oz. In the menu on this page, each item’s price is the standard size — the Cup for a soupe, the Whole for a sandwich, the Slice for a cake, the Regular for a coffee — and the other sizes are stated with the item.
Breakfast & Brunch — Served All Day
Breakfast is La Madeleine’s signature daypart, and it has no cutoff: the chain states “We serve brunch all day, every day,” and there is no breakfast end time. Every breakfast item below is orderable from open to close.
The egg platform runs from the Custom Omelette and Egg White Omelette ($13.79–$14.29, each with any three fresh ingredients and a butter croissant) to the American Breakfast ($11.69–$11.99) and the Country French Breakfast ($13.59–$13.89), which adds a Potato Galette. Breakfast sandwiches include the Bacon Bon-Bon Brioche Sandwich ($11.99–$12.29) — candied, peppered thick-cut bacon with an over-medium egg — and a Build Your Own Breakfast Sandwich ($9.89–$9.99) on brioche, croissant or sourdough. The French Toast comes three ways: Classic Butter & Syrup ($11.09–$11.29), with Fresh Berries ($11.79–$12.09), and the French Toast Breakfast with two eggs and bacon or sausage ($14.99 in online ordering).
The Bakery: Pâtisserie, Viennoiserie & Cakes
The bakery is the second half of the menu, and La Madeleine files it in four sections. Viennoiserie & Breads is the croissant case: Butter Croissant ($3.49), Chocolate Croissant ($4.39), Almond Croissant ($4.39) and Chocolate Almond Croissant ($4.89), plus croissant muffins, Danish, muffins at $3.49, an Apple Turnover ($4.29), the Baguette ($3.99 whole) and take-home loaves — Sourdough and Seven Grain at $6.29. Croissants are also sold in 6-packs ($15.79 for butter, $19.79 for chocolate), and the Bakery Box (any 6 bakery items, $19.79) and Fresh Baker’s Dozen (any 13, $29.99) are the bulk formats.
French Pâtisserie is the small-dessert case: Vanilla Bean and Caramel Crème Brûlée ($4.99), Classic Éclair ($4.89), Classic Napoleon ($5.99), mini tartes at $2.99 and Macarons at $1.99 each (a custom 6-pack is $11.99). Cookies & Cakes holds the madeleines themselves — Signature and Original Lemon at $1.99 each, $4.99 for a 3-pack — the big cookies at $4.99, and the cake slices covered below. A fourth section, Bakery: 12-Hour Lead Time, is for whole items ordered ahead: the Fresh Fruit Tarte ($25.99) and the whole Classic Napoleon ($29.99).
Quiche
Quiche is a signature dish here, and there are exactly two on the menu. Quiche Lorraine — ham, bacon and onion in Swiss custard, baked in a buttery pie crust — costs $9.99–$10.19 and has 810 calories. Quiche Florentine — the spinach quiche — costs $9.79–$9.99 and has 750 calories.
Soupes
Five soupes make up the line, and every one is priced the same: $5.89–$5.99 for a Cup, $7.19–$7.29 for a Bowl. The signature is the Tomato Basil Soupe — a cream-based vegetarian (not vegan) soupe of vine-ripened tomatoes, fresh cream and fresh basil. The rest of the line is French Onion, Country Potato, Cream of Mushroom and French Lentil. The Salade Sampler ($11.29–$11.69) lets you pick any three soupes and salades together.
The Tomato Basil Soupe appears on this menu twice, and both listings are the chain’s own: once as the café soupe above, and once in the French Market as a take-home jar — 31 oz for $10.69, 15 oz for $6.89. The jar is a retail product; the cup is the café serving. Roasted Red Pepper Soupe survives only as a retail product — it is not one of the five café soupes.
Salades
The salade case mixes full plates and small deli servings. The Chicken Salade — the chain’s signature balsamic chicken mixed with celery, mayonnaise and breadcrumbs — is $4.69 a serving and $11.50 by the pound, and it anchors the Chicken Salade Croissant sandwich ($10.19–$10.29). The Caesar family runs from the Petite Caesar ($5.29) to the Classic Caesar Salade ($9.19–$9.69, $12.59–$13.09 with chicken). The French Cobb Salade is $14.99, and the deli pasta salade — Tomato Basil Pesto Pasta Salade — is $4.59–$4.79. Filed here by the chain, though it is really a dessert, is Strawberries Romanoff: fresh strawberries in a sweet brandy sour-cream sauce, $4.79 (90 calories; the sauce contains alcohol).
Sandwiches
Sandwiches are priced by the Whole, with the Half stated on most items. The two croques lead the list: the Croque Madame — smoked ham and Swiss in garlic cream sauce on country bread, topped with a fried egg — at $14.18–$14.58 (the odd cents are the chain’s own published figures, kept as printed), and the Croque Monsieur at $12.19–$12.59, Half $10.09–$10.29. The Prime Rib Provolone is $14.99, the Chicken Parisien $13.39–$13.59, the Turkey Bistro $12.09–$12.29 and the Café Club $12.79. The Chicken Caesar Sandwich ($13.59–$13.89) and the Stuffed Chicken Caesar Croissant ($9.89–$9.99) carry the Caesar platform into the sandwich case.
Entrées & French Favorites
The signature entrée is Chicken la Madeleine — balsamic chicken in a creamy mushroom sauce with seasoned wild rice and steamed broccoli — $11.89–$12.19 at 490 calories, the lightest full entrée on the menu. Around it: the Chicken Friand, chicken and Swiss in flaky puff pastry ($10.99–$11.09); Crêpe la Madeleine ($12.29–$12.59); Creamy Pesto Pasta ($12.79–$12.89); and the two baked pastas, Four-Cheese ($11.29–$11.59) and Chicken Cordon Bleu ($14.99). The Café Sampler ($13.89–$14.19) combines a hot item, a cup of soupe and a petite salade.
Two dishes from older listings are not on the current menu: the Beef Crêpe Stroganoff and the Shrimp Baguette appear in neither the current website menu nor the current ordering menus as of October 2026. The chain’s own FAQ notes that it rotates recipes in and out of the menu.
Desserts & Cakes — by the Slice and Whole
Cake is sold both ways. By the slice: Sacher Torte ($6.29) — three chocolate layers with raspberry jam under chocolate ganache — Strawberry Chantilly Cake ($6.29), Coconut Cream Cake ($5.99) and Traditional Cheesecake ($5.99). Whole cakes to go are a real part of the menu: the Coconut Cream Cake, Sacher Torte and Traditional Cheesecake are $41.99 whole, and the Strawberry Chantilly is $24.99 whole. Add the pâtisserie case — crème brûlée, éclairs, Napoleons, tartes — and the Strawberries Romanoff from the salade case, and dessert is the deepest part of this menu after drinks.
Coffee & Drinks
Drip Coffee is filed with the beverages by the chain itself: $3.79–$3.89, with Cold Brew at the same range. The Specialty Coffees are their own category — Café Latte and the flavored lattes (Pistachio, Brown Butter Toffee, French Madeleine) at $5.29–$5.49 for the Regular 12 oz, $6.09–$6.19 for the Large 20 oz; Cappuccino and Café Mocha at $4.69–$4.79; Espresso $3.29–$3.39 a single. The three Refreshers — Strawberry Hibiscus, Pineapple Strawberry and Mango Dragon Fruit, shaken with the house-made lemonade — are $4.19 for 12 oz. The Parisien Hot Chocolate, served with Chantilly cream, a mini croissant and a strawberry, is a seasonal website item and carries no online price.
Lunch & Dinner
There is no separate lunch or dinner menu — the same menu runs all day, and the samplers are the built-in lunch format: the Salade Sampler (any three soupes and salades, $11.29–$11.69) and the Café Sampler ($13.89–$14.19). For groups eating at home, the Made for Sharing line publishes family bundles — Café Classics for 4, Pasta Night for 4, Family Dinner for 4, Picnic Lunch for 4 and Breakfast & Brunch for 4 — with calorie totals but no prices in the pickup ordering menus, because they are ordered through the catering channel rather than the pickup menu.
Seasonal & Holiday
The current seasonal rail, tagged in the menu, mixes orderable items — Spinach Feta Bistro ($4.39), the Signature and Original Lemon Madeleines, the Double Chocolate Toffee Cookie, the Espresso Fudge Muffin and the Lemon Madeleine Muffin — with four website features sold in-café whose prices are not published online: the Cranberry Chai Refresher, the Pistachio Dipped Croissant, the Strawberry Dipped Croissant and the Sweet Bakery Board. For the holidays, the chain’s Holiday Feast (Take & Heat serves 4, Catered Hot serves 10) opened pre-orders on September 30, 2026 for pickup or delivery from November 4, 2026, with 24 hours’ advance notice required.
Kids’ Menu
There is a kids’ menu — five items, every one priced $6.29–$6.49, for guests 10 and younger. It is the Kids Cheese Pizza, Kids Pasta and Cheese Sauce, a Kids Croissant Sandwich with turkey or ham and cheddar, Kids Muffin & Fruit Salade, and Kids Scrambled Eggs with Bacon. Each comes with a kids’ beverage, and most include a mini chocolate chip cookie.
Nutrition & Calories
The calories in the menu on this page are La Madeleine’s own published per-item figures, taken from its ordering platform and cross-checked against the calorie figures printed on its website menu pages: across 143 items published in both places, the two agree exactly, with zero conflicts. 110 of the 198 items carry an official calorie figure; the rest — most beverages, bakery loaves, French Market retail items and bundle components — have no per-item figure published in either channel, and none is invented here.
There is no standalone nutrition PDF on lamadeleine.com. Every menu page instead links “See Nutritional Information” to the chain’s nutrition portal hosted on Nutritionix, which carries the full calculator and the allergen and ingredient tool, and the pages note that additional nutrition information is available upon request. Macros and sodium per item live in that portal; this page carries the chain’s calorie figures.

The lightest full plate on the menu is Chicken la Madeleine at 490 calories; the lightest items overall are the Steamed Broccoli side (35) and the Petite Field Greens Salade (45). Several of the chain’s figures are published ranges rather than single numbers — sandwiches span the Half to the Whole, and the American Breakfast’s 570–890 spans the bacon-or-sausage choice — and those ranges are carried here exactly as published. The Protein Bowl, a French Market–style entrée of balsamic chicken, egg, tomatoes and avocado, is the published protein pick at 35 grams of protein.
Allergens & Dietary
La Madeleine’s gluten-free position is stated in its own Guest Support FAQ, and it is a limited one: the chain offers “a number of items that are made without ingredients containing gluten; however, it is impossible to guarantee that any of the foods we prepare have not come into contact with gluten,” and it states plainly, “We currently do not have any gluten-free dessert or bakery items.” There is no separate gluten-free menu. On the menu itself, items carry the chain’s own callouts — Gluten Free (three items, including the Fruit Salade), Vegan, *Contains Nuts (nine items) and **Contains Alcohol (four items, including the Strawberries Romanoff sauce).
Prices — How They Were Verified
La Madeleine publishes no prices on its website. The prices on this page were taken from the chain’s own online ordering platform — the ordering system lamadeleine.com links to from its Order page and every menu page — at three cafés in three states: Mockingbird in Dallas, TX, Alexandria, VA and New Orleans Carrollton, LA, in October 2026. Prices differ modestly by market (Alexandria usually runs a few dimes higher), so each price is the lowest-to-highest range across the three cafés. No aggregator or third-party menu-site figures were used.
Coverage is stated exactly: 166 of the 198 items are priced. The unpriced groups are the four cocktails (website menu only, at participating locations), the Made for Sharing family bundles other than Coffee for 12 (catering-channel items, not in the pickup menus), the website-only seasonal features and in-store French Market lines, and three items listed online by only one sampled café — Grits, Tomato Basil Pasta and Strawberry Napoleon — whose single-café figures are stated with the item in the menu, with the café named, rather than presented as a range. On the price fields the menu runs $1.99–$29.99; whole cakes, stated with their items, run to $41.99.
Hours
Every café in the chain’s own 76-café directory opens at 7:00 AM (one opens at 8:00 AM). The standard pattern — 48 of the 76 cafés — is 7:00 AM to 9:00 PM every day; most of the rest close at 9:30 or 10:00 PM, a dozen of them later on Friday and Saturday, and a few specialty locations run reduced schedules. The three cafés sampled for this page — Dallas Mockingbird, Alexandria and New Orleans Carrollton — all follow the 7 AM opening pattern, with Dallas running 7 AM–9 PM daily.
Because brunch is served all day, every day, there is no breakfast cutoff to beat and no separate lunch start time: the full menu is available from open to close. Holiday hours are set by each café — a location’s page in the chain’s directory carries its own holiday schedule.
Gift Cards
La Madeleine gift cards are sold in cafés, on the website, and through retail partners — the chain’s help page names Amazon.com, Target.com, Kroger.com, OfficeDepot.com, PayPal and GiftcardMall — and the chain warns that it does not partner with discount gift-card sites. Cards are reloadable at any location. Denominations are chosen inside the purchase widget and are not published as text on the site, so no denomination list is printed here.
Check a balance two ways: online at lamadeleine.myguestaccount.com, or in any café. The current holiday promotion, on the chain’s published terms: buy physical gift cards in-café between November 4 and December 31, 2026 and receive one $5 Bounce Back card for every $25 in a single transaction.
Deals, Coupons & Bonjour Rewards
La Madeleine’s loyalty program is Bonjour Rewards, free to join in the chain’s app. Members earn 1 point per $1 spent, by linking a credit card or uploading receipts, across three tiers: Bonjour (sign-up), Magnifique (250 points) and Crème de la Crème (500 points). Every tier starts with $5 off the next purchase on sign-up and a free individual pastry or slice of cake on your birthday, plus access to the Rewards Marketplace, where points redeem for treats, sides and discounts. Magnifique adds a monthly surprise reward; Crème de la Crème adds a free fresh-baked loaf every month and $15 off a $35+ purchase once a year.
Beyond the program, the chain’s offers are dated promotions rather than standing discounts — the current one is the $9.99 French Toast Breakfast detailed above — and no standing military, senior or student discount is published in the chain’s official materials. This page does not print coupon or promo codes.
