Conci.

Sure the city has a plethora of decent croissants, but a TRULY GREAT croissant reminiscent of the ones in France/Europe, is surprisingly hard to come by but that's exactly what Conci consistently delivers. We're talking fresh, moist, flaky, pronounced buttery flavour, and excellent lamination for an airy yet substantial bite. Their other viennoiseries are also fantastic. Service is friendly, the price is right and the space is unpretentious. This spot is so out of the way for me but it's worth the trip every time.

This is such a cute place to get amazing food. Went here for a Sunday brunch. No reservations but still found a spot.. not because it's not busy but most people get take aways and it was a rainy Sunday. Got the veg croque monsieur, an almond coffee crossiant and quiche (the best one in Toronto hands down) The food was fantastic and the chef and the staff delightful. Wouldn't rave about the coffee but it wasn't bad. They have a lovely selection of breads and wines as well. Would definitely be visiting again.

Tried their almond croissant and it was very good ! They have a lot of savoury options as well as sweet ones. They have patio seating. Friendly service. Will try more things when in the area.

One of the best brunches I've ever had in Toronto. Spectacular flavors! Edit: after several months, I returned there and I haven't changed my opinion, in fact I'd give this place 6/5 stars if possible. Every plate looks like a piece of art and they taste incredible. I'm adding a new picture to these review in case you're still wondering if it's worth your time.

Located at Greenwood & Gerard, Conci was a highly anticipated destination fueled by numerous recommendations (thanks, Peter from Dreyfus!). We'd heard about their natural wines, but we came by early Sunday morning on this particular occasion, seeking comfort in some pastries and coffee. They opened at 9 am, and we showed up five minutes later, only to find a tolerable queue of eager customers. Most people seemed glad to grab their treats to go, but we chose to enjoy the morning sunshine on their patio. The croissants that awaited us were superb. We woke from our Sunday morning haze with each buttery, flaky, flavorful bite. Yet, one particular pastry reigned supreme—a pistachio-infused croissant with unrivalled flavour and texture. Oh, what a hit it was with the adults and kids alike! In the company of flat whites brewed to perfection, the entire experience reached new heights. As we sipped our coffee and savoured the last morsels of our delightful pastries, we couldn't help but feel a deep sense of satisfaction. Conci exceeded our expectations, leaving an indelible mark on our culinary journey, orchestrated in the most unpretentious settings. So, if you are fortunate enough to be on the east end, step foot in this spot and enjoy! We look forward to returning to try the natural wines on-site, but we purchased some bottles to take home, which will do for now!

This has quickly become one of our neighbourhood favourites. Every visit reminds us of a late morning stroll into an Italian café. The beans are fresh, rich, and smooth. They have a quaint shaded patio where they serve wine by the glass and host events. There are no vegan pastries available, but I was told they can accommodate with advance notice!

Delicious baked goods and Cafe with curated selection of wines. Small interior with not much seating but they have a patio where you can enjoy your drinks and food. One of the best butter croissants in the city, and the ham and Swiss is a must try if you like beschamel!

Got their famous Triple Fromage Croissant that I've read online, and it lives up to the hype. Covered with poppy seeds and a beautiful spiral structure on the inside, it is crispy and crunchy from the poppy seeds, which provides a contrast of aromas from the butter of the croissant and the cheese inside, which is complex and provides a lot more depth to each bite. Follow @bredgyeats for more food posts! EDIT: More goodies. The canele has a deeply caramelized exterior, for a rich depth of flavour and a crispy texture to contrast the gooey vanilla custard center, while the kouign aman has a attractive shape and a beautiful contrast of textures and flavours.
