Located at One Bonifacio High Street Mall, the flagship spans approximately 210 square meters and houses both a boutique and a Salon de Thé (tea room). Aptly named Ladurée Tropical, the store beautifully marries Parisian refinement with the vibrance of the tropics, creating an elegant escape
The boutique features Ladurée’s signature pastel-hued macarons, confections, and pastries—all flown in directly from Switzerland to ensure authenticity and freshness.
In celebration of this grand return, Ladurée introduces its most awaited 2025 creation—the Ladurée Dubai Chocolate Macaron. This rare indulgence blends pure Parisian elegance with Dubai luxury, offering a rich, velvety chocolate experience unlike any other and is available exclusively at the BGC flagship.

Complementing the sweets and pastries is a dedicated coffee section, featuring specially curated hot and cold beverages such as their Signature Latte.
Guests can also look forward to exclusive items like the Eugénie—a delightful confection that combines the best of a macaron and a pastry.

This re-entry into the Philippine market is spearheaded by the Gastronova Hospitality Group, led by CEO Karan Gopwani.
Unlike the previous franchise, which operated a boutique in Rockwell Makati in 2015, this new venture will introduce a comprehensive Ladurée experience.

Adding to the experience is the newly opened Ladurée Manille Terrace—an inviting al fresco extension where guests can savor their favorite pastries and beverages amid the open BGC breeze. And in a delightful twist, your furry besties can now join the feast, as the terrace warmly welcomes pets, making it a truly inclusive space for every guest
