This French inspired local bakery sits in Clinton Hill, Brooklyn, NYC. My ulterior motive for a…read moremorning visit was to attain cruller prior to my two morning meetings in Brooklyn, NYC. Disappointedly, to no available thus I decided one ham and cheese croissant. Although, my second choice was chocolate chip cookie which seemingly also appeared to no available either. There was a line that spewed outdoors waiting to order. The ordering and checkout line moves like a sloth. This is a small brick and mortar bakery with no seating as its purpose is for order and takeout. There is one small self-serve condiment and napkin station. There is a menu posted legible and big lettering on a wall. There is a small selection of retail merchandise as greeting cards, long bandanas and baseball caps. The cards are seemingly appear average design. I would purchase cards that are scenic seaside landscape or nostalgia winter picturesque paintings by Maud Lewis, Canadian folk artist. Ham and cheese croissant $6.00 was paucity for the miniscule ham and cheese imbedded. The size of the croissant was also miniscule. It tasted average and very oily. This croissant pastry was flaky. I am enamored with pastries. I was really looking forward for cruller to fill my morning. No comment for the beverages as I did not order any. Customer service was average as expected. I did attained my sales receipt.

The bakery had a display full of pastries that looked absolutely incredible. I didn't have time to grab one this visit, but I'll definitely be back to fix that. I spent a few minutes talking with one of the staff members about the different sourdough options they had that day. I'm actually not the biggest sourdough fan, but I decided to trust his recommendation. When I got home, I toasted a slice and had it with a cup of coffee... wow. It was absolutely delicious. The flavor was rich, the texture was perfect, and it completely changed my opinion of what good sourdough can be. If you're in the area and love sourdough bread, you'll probably be in heaven here. Right now, the surrounding neighborhood is still being developed, so it can feel like it's in the middle of nowhere. But you can already see where it's headed. Give it a few years, and I have a feeling this is going to be one of "the spots" people seek out. I'll definitely be back for one of those pastries.

I really wanted to love this place. To be fair, we did come when they were close to closing, so…read moreit's entirely possible that it would have been different if we had come earlier in the day. The seating is sparse, but comfortable. I liked sitting at the window bar and watching the world go by. I enjoyed the bread and butter--that was delicious. The biscuit sandwich was crumbly, but tasty. The kouign amann was crispier than most--I liked that caramelization, but my husband didn't. We also shared a custard danish--to me, the berries and custard tasted sour. We did enjoy the sunflower butter cookie. I ordered black tea with milk--it was lukewarm milk water. Lest you think that's because I ordered it with milk, my husband's green tea was lukewarm green tea water. I might eat here again if I were in the neighborhood, but I wouldn't make a special trip (as I did this time). The barista was very nice.

If my mouth and stomach were large enough i'd put everything they make into them and spend the rest of the day delighted. The only thing i'm at a loss for is trying to decide on my favorites, as they are all insanely DEEEEELICIOUS. Go. Now. JUST GO. It's beyond worth it. Down to the crumb. Seriously, put your phone or screens down and just head there now.

We ordered the chocolate chip pumpkin muffin, vanilla liege waffle and sourdough scallion scone. These were excellent pastries irrespective of being gluten free. My favorite was the scallion scone which was packed full of scallion and super moist. Erik favorited the waffle which was super crispy and perfectly sweet without being overwhelming. We love bakeries that offer a fullsome allergen friendly experience and can confirm that you lose nothing in the way of taste or texture by being accommodating

A lot of people rave about their croissants as some of the best in NYC... but their kouign amann…read moredeserves even more hype! I got lucky and snagged the limited blueberry pie croissant on its last day. Their croissants are literally perfect. Light, airy honeycomb interior, a super flaky exterior, and a deep golden brown. I might just start making regular trips to South Slope for these pastries! Their chef Claudio was so friendly! He even offered to help us cut the pastries in half, which is how we got those flawless cross sections. ＊Blueberry Pie Croissant $11.5 The croissant was stuffed with blueberry jam and whipped vanilla cream! You could tell the jam was homemade with so many real blueberry bits, and they didn't hold back on it! The oat streusel on top was so good I was picking up every last crumb off the plate lol. ＊ Kouign Amann $5.5 What really blew me away was their kouign amann... the outside is crunchy, sticky, and coated with a generous sprinkle of sugar. It's super buttery and pulls apart perfectly with gorgeous honeycomb layers. ＊Ham and Gruyere Croissant $8 I usually go for savory pastries, so this one's a solid pick especially for breakfast. They were all gone by around 10 on a weekend.

The croissants are buttery, flaky, and practically melt in your mouth. And don't even get me started on their kouign-amann--it's a decadent masterpiece that I dream about when I'm trying to eat healthy. But I have to say, I'm really disappointed that they haven't reopened their dining area since COVID. Part of the charm was sitting down with a coffee and enjoying the vibe while devouring my treats fresh from the counter. Now, it feels a bit rushed, and it's just not the same eating these works of art out of a paper bag on the go. That said, the quality is still top-notch, and I can't stay mad at them when the pastrie is this good.
