Granier

This outlet is inside the METRO 1 hypermarket at 5 Chișinăului Street, on the edge of the city towards Stăuceni. Granier is a chain of bakery-cafés with outlets across several districts of Chișinău. It sells fresh bread and pastries — croissants, bagels, plăcinte, éclairs, cheesecake, cakes and gateaux — along with coffee and other drinks, to take away or enjoy on the spot. It works well for breakfast on the way to work, a snack with coffee or picking up bread and dessert to take home, and the range includes seasonal items.

Ratings are above average, but there are only a few reviews so far. Customers praise the clean, well-organised space and friendly service; the coffee is criticised in several reviews.
