U're here partially cos of The NY Times. U're queuing maybe cos it's FOMO. Take a step back. Screw 'em expectations & appreciate the croissants, kouign amman & cruffins just as they are. Rmb to enjoy
SUPER LOVE THIS PLACE! Manage to sample what was left of the pastries and it was really awesome! We didn't need to queue though. Love the rustic interior too! Would definitely visit again!
I don't need to say anything if the NewYorkTimes says this is one of the best croissant in the world. If possible, better enjoy there with coffee. Croissants have to be fresh and warm.
Line to order moves fast but drinks take a long time. Croissants are warm, big, and fancy. Plain croissant is very good. Almond croissant is good as well but too sweet.
Tue/Wed takeaway-only crossaints can be lukewarm. Double almond, chocolate, spinach and feta crossaints are all decent, but they are not significantly better than other good crossaints we had before
I enjoyed watching the chefs prepare fresh pastries while i was enjoying my fresh Cruffin :) not gonna lie, it was absolutely great! However... Worth going to but not worth waiting in line for hours
Store opens at 8am! Got there quarter to 7 on sat and number 12 in queue. Some double baked items are limited (10 pieces) so if you want them better get there early. Max 6 pieces per customer.
$5.80 for a plain croissant is a total rip-off. It’s good but not the best I have ever had. In fact Starbucks in Shanghai has an Italian bakery with a much better one!
croissant is good but not the best. Had the original and the ham & cheese, the original is not served warm. At $6 each, once is enough. What I like is the decor.. pretty cool.. and the hot chocolate!
