    The expereince wasn't great overall. I tried a few pastries including the croissant and it just isn't soft on the inside; it was overly flaky. The price and expectations don't align with the quality. On the positive side the staff is friendly and it's located in a nice area with a decent atmosphere.

    First time here at Croissante and everything was delicious!! They have such a wide variety of pastries and nothing disappointed. Our favorites from the selection that we got were the mushroom danish, ham and cheese croissant, and the almond croissant. They have a bigger location in Santa Clara with a wider variety, but the employees here were so sweet!!

    Visited this cafe over the weekend and found street parking right in front (on Bachman Ave), though they have a small parking lot as well for convenience. The display case was well stocked full of croissants, pastries, and desserts around 11am on a Saturday. The line wasn't long, just a few people in front of me, but service was incredibly slow as customers stood in view of all the tantalizing options, waiting to be helped. Ringing up my order at the register was quick though. Only outdoor seating is available here, and all tables were occupied, so it's good I ordered for takeout. Got the ham & cheese croissant, cube croissant french toast, and an iced mocha (made with espresso). Everything was outstanding. The croissant french toast was so fluffy and buttery inside. I was pleasantly surprised with how good this was. The ham & cheese croissant was soft and buttery as well, with lots of melted cheese, one of the best ham & cheese croissants I've ever had. The iced mocha tasted fresh and had a nice balance of smooth sweet chocolate and bold coffee flavor, adding to the perfect meal. I had a way better experience here than at the larger Santa Clara location.

    I have tried both branches and they are both up to scale, delicious bakes and coffee, friendly staff. I loved this location as it got this homey vibes and nice outside seating area very quiet.

    IMHO I was so afraid I'd be facing a long line here or that many pastries would be sold out. NOT SO!!! I arrived shortly after 11 a.m. and there was one customer ahead of me. I had time to peruse the displays of yummy pastries, Jabon sandwiches, and coffee menu. I purchased the almond kouign amann and cube croissant French toast. Both excellent! Service was exceptional, friendly and accommodating! I will definitely return!

    Lemon Yuzu Cheesecake, Chai Latte, Pistachio Croissant
    Stephanie L.

    I've been wanting to visit Croissante for a while, knowing they're known for their delicious desserts and I finally visited! My friend and I shared a lemon yuzu cheesecake and a pistachio croissant, and she also got herself a chai latte. I'm usually not a big fan of cheesecake because it can feel too rich, but the lemon yuzu really cut through the cheesiness and added a refreshing burst of flavor with every bite, honestly, not bad at all. The pistachio croissant was my favorite. The flavor wasn't overpowering, you could clearly taste the pistachio, and it looked so cute too. I also loved the store's aesthetic and their blue-themed packaging, so pretty! After trying everything, I ended up ordering a mango croissant to take home. It tasted just like mango sago with fresh mango pieces, so good :)

    Such a fancy and tasty addition to the South Bay! After hearing a lot of hype about their original Santa Clara location, I was glad to finally try Croissante but in Los Gatos. It seems much more chill here with no lines, everything available for purchase even into the afternoon, and decent amount of seating outside. It's pricey yes, but you get what you pay for. Good coffee and I enjoyed the Triple Cheese Bun (which is creamy and a little sweet). They also have nice gift boxes for an additional cost. Staff was very friendly and helpful and even helped me get my multiple bags to me car.

    Beautiful afternoon & finally stopped by Croissante to enjoy some savory & sweet treats!

    I've been to the Sunnyvale location a few times (which is always jam packed), but the Los Gatos spot has such a different feel. It's more of a quaint, cottage-style bakery with a really cute outdoor patio, which made it perfect for a slow Sunday. This time I went heavier on the sweets, and everything was so well done. The Lemon Bliss was easily my favorite--lemony, slightly tart, with a blueberry center and just the right amount of sweetness. It looked beautiful and tasted even better. I also picked up the chocolate rose tart and raspberry cheesecake, both of which were just as good as they looked. For something savory, the ham & cheese croissant was incredible--super flaky, buttery, and honestly not your average croissant at all. I've also had their mushroom danish before and that one never disappoints. I grabbed a vanilla latte, sat outside, and just enjoyed the moment--which is exactly the kind of experience this place gives. Croissante is definitely worth the hype.

    How this place is not more popular and why it doesn't have more ratings, I'll never know. I dropped by quite serendipitously because a pizza place nearby hadn't opened up yet, so instead of waiting till noon to order my pizzas, my family came here to get some savory pastries and a coffee to go. The place is small and immediately gave us Parisian vibes, the way the line and ordering were arranged. The staff was warm and friendly, and the service was quick. I ordered the ham and cheese croissant and the mushroom Danish, and a cappuccino to go. The H&C was ridiculously good - flaky on the outside, warm, cheesy, and creamy on the inside. I am not surprised it's their most popular pastry. The mushroom Danish was also fantastic. The coffee was decent but it was quite lukewarm. That's probably my only complaint, but otherwise, I am so glad we tried this place. Definitely recommend if you are near the Los Gatos downtown area or plan to head to the nearby Vasona Lake Park and need to stock on some food for a picnic in the park....

    Kouign Amann
    Susan Z.

    I was in the area waiting for brunch and saw that the infamous Croissante in Santa Clara also had a location in Los Gatos. There were no lines too and so I just had to give them a try since I know that the lines at the SC location can get quite long. I got the kouign amann and thought it was okay. Crispy on the outside and less so inside with some chewiness in the center. This location gets their baked goods from their Santa Clara location; they restock a few times a day according to the workers there, so perhaps the items may not be as fresh as if I were to get them from their main location. The workers were extremely friendly and it's a nice and cute bakery. I'll try their SC location next time!

    Croissante is a small bakery specializing in lavish croissants. The place is cute and clean, but the service is a bit lacking. It's unclear how to choose items or even whom to ask. Apparently we did it all wrong because the cashier just told us to go back to the other side of the counter to talk to the other employee whose (apparent) job is to put the croissant on a tray. They put the croissant upside down in the bag so clearly they don't care. The product itself is mediocre. The raspberry jam overwhelms every other flavor in the mix. The croissant is room temperature and tastes almost stale. Crust is flaky but tasteless. It's like they made it from just water and flour. For $8 I would expect significantly better.

    Nice location tucked away in downtown Los Gatos. I had tried going to the Santa Clara location which is more out of the way and the line was always so long. This location was not busy on a weekday and fully stocked with yummy treats. I got the honey sesame croissant and kouign amann. Picked up a pain au chocolat for a friend. My friend very much enjoyed the pain au chocolat. The honey sesame croissant was perfectly flaky without making a mess and nice and fluffy inside. I really enjoyed the flavor of it. The kouign amann was a pass for me. It was fine, but it's the first time I had a flat version of it and very much prefer a more pillowy fluffy texture to it than the whole hard bottom of it. It's a tad pricey but a nice treat when you're looking for something sweet or savory or both.

    The garlic pretzel is neither garlic or pretzel. Discuss.

    I've been here a few times, and I honestly don't know why I haven't reviewed this place yet…read more The moment you walk into Manresa Bread, you're greeted right away. The space has a modern yet warm feel with beautiful natural wood finishes, fresh loaves of sourdough lining the shelves, pastries displayed in the case, and a mix of large communal wood tables, regular seating, and high-top tables. It's the kind of café that makes you want to slow down and stay awhile. The staff was friendly and helped us choose both a pastry and our toast. They were also happy to customize our order--we asked for the levain sourdough toast with butter instead of the usual olive oil. That toast was absolutely divine. The sourdough had the perfect balance: chewy without being too sour, with a crust that was crisp but not so hard that it fought back. Easily the best sourdough toast I've had in the Bay Area. If you come here, this is the one thing you have to order. The only disappointment was the butter. They serve French butter, but for an extra $2, the portion was tiny and honestly nothing special. I've had better butter from Whole Foods. It didn't take away from how incredible the bread was, but it wasn't worth the upcharge. Their Kouign-amann is also one of the best I've ever had. Instead of the typical flat, flaky style, theirs is taller with countless buttery layers that create an amazing texture. The cappuccino was another highlight. It had subtle notes of orange peel, whiskey, and cardamom, making it unique. The latte art was beautiful too. Overall, Manresa Bread is one of those cafés that makes you want to sit down with a laptop or a book and spend a few hours there. The only downside is there are no power outlets, so come with a full battery if you're planning to work. Must orders: Levain sourdough toast with butter and the Kouign-amann. Both are worth the trip.

The lavender flavor actually came through instead of getting lost in the coffee, creating a fragrant, well-balanced drink that was both comforting and delightful.

And though some can sound weird, none of the ones we tried were at all off-putting or seemed to be weird for the sake of being weird. They were just creative and unexpected. In a world where you run across the typical flavors more often than not, even at independent ice cream shops, having these unique combinations is a great option to have. In the past, we'd had Chocolate Caramel Smoked Budino and Strawberry Honey Balsamic w/ Black Pepper. The highlight of this visit was the coffee - great and I'd order it every time. It's best to get a double and share, IMO. The extra cost for a big extra scoop isn't that much, versus getting two single scoops. If you know the other person well that is. Love to come back again. Worth a splurge to get some really creative flavors and stay cool on hot days.

There's a decent amount of parking, but during popular times, you might need to wait for a spot. We got the mint chocolate chip and strawberry balsamic. Mint chocolate chip was good, just on the sweeter side. Strawberry balsamic had a nice vinegar twang. I appreciate how they let you get a sample of various flavors since they have a lot of interesting ones that sound cool and you can see which cater to your personal taste before purchasing a full ice cream.

I genuinely don't understand why the owner allows her staff to treat customers this way simply because of the language they speak. Personal opinions or biases have no place in customer service.
