Croissante

One of the most popular bakeries in Santa Clara. My friend from the area said this was his go-to spot for croissants, so we stopped by early on a Saturday morning, just after they opened. We got there around 7:20am, a bit before their full lineup was out. So no mango croissant (their most popular item), but we picked up a few of my friend’s favorites: the almond croissant, strawberry cream croissant, and a fig danish. Almond Croissant – Solid. On par with some of the better almond croissants I’ve had in SF. Flaky, rich, and not overly sweet. Strawberry Cream Croissant – The croissant itself wasn’t anything special in terms of texture, but the cream was exactly my kind of thing. Much like a delicate Japanese cream, it captured the pure richness of milk and filled in the gaps left by the croissant’s structure and made the whole thing work. Could imagine this being even better with the mango version. Fig Danish – Every time I try a pastry with fig toppings, I rarely taste real fig flavor. It's usually drowned out by syrup, which makes it hard to distinguish from preserved fruit. But this one was different. Lightly glazed, not overly sweet, and it actually preserved the fig’s floral, subtly nutty character. Might be the best fig danish I’ve had.

We have been here four times so far and enjoy the freshness of their pastries. On our first visit, we ordered the pain chocolate and triple chocolate with double espresso and Americano. While the pastries were fresh, the chocolate filling was not generous. On our second visit, we went for breakfast and ordered two plain croissants, two ham and cheese croissants, a double espresso, and an Americano - we had to ask for a new espresso because they served us a cold one. Take away Cube French Croissant Toast and Matcha Chocolat. Again, we enjoy the freshness of the pastries. However, we were pretty surprised by how sweet the ham and cheese were. The croissant seemed to have sweetness that we didn't expect from a savory pastry. Unfortunately, this was not much to our liking. As for the French toast, it was good, heavy but good. The Matcha chocolate, while the freshness of the pastry was there, lacked the flavour or kick from the Matcha. On our third visit, we went again for breakfast, and this time, we ordered a farmer’s focaccia, pain chocolat, omelet, and bacon croissant set breakfast, along with double espresso and Americano. We enjoyed the farmer’s focaccia. We didn't enjoy the croissant omelet and bacon much. We thought the omelet and bacon flavoring was overpowering; we couldn't taste much of the croissant. I decided to eat everything separately. And the fourth, for afternoon snacks, we ordered 1x plain croissant, white chocolate Matcha scone, pain au chocolat, double espresso, and Americano. Again, they served the espresso warm, not hot. Perhaps they have it ready on the side and can fill it into a cup according to the order. New one this time was the scone, I think from the two Matcha flavour pastries that I've ordered - they don't have much kick or strong flavour of the Matcha itself, nothing much, if not zero, not unless you do kind of look for the taste itself while chewing pastries. However, I enjoyed the Matcha Scone instead of the Matcha Chocolat. Why three stars? Apart from the way they serve the double espresso, other pastries that not much of our liking. We believe the cashier and the staff handling the orders can be improved. They have so many staff around, but somehow, they're not operating efficiently and effectively. Everyone is busy doing something else, while they can attend to people’s orders instead. They only have one cashier, who tends to be the most reason for the long line apart from handling the orders. And the ambience of the place itself—it doesn't feel very inviting for dining. It's always noisy, whether less crowded or crowded, and not very neat-looking/feeling when you enter or dine in. 👀

This artisan bakery is a buttery dream if you love fresh french style pastries. This place has so many varieties of croissants and sweets that I had to go for an array of treats, and honestly they were all so tasty. I tried the original croissant, mango cream, ham & cheese, french toast cube, and the triple chocolate. My favorite was the ham & cheese and the mango. Definitely recommend this spot, its busy but there are times where the line isn't out tue doors and you can still enjoy the best assortment of desserts. They also serve meals and drinks so if you want to sit they have some seating inside.

My favorite go-to bakery in the South Bay. What makes this place stand out is its incredible variety of bread options, which can change throughout the day. My top picks are the cheese bun, white chocolate matcha scones, and their croissants—with fillings and coatings ranging from classic butter to chocolate, matcha, and almond. They also offer more unique croissants featuring fresh fruits like strawberries or mangos with whipped cream. While these croissants don’t always stay fresh for long, they’re undeniably delicious and generously sized. I always look forward to coming back!

We walked in on a Saturday morning 7:30am. The pastries should be fresh out of oven, but for some reason we felt the cranberry pistachio escargot's dough was a little sour; and the almond kouign amann wasn't cripsy at all, but rather only hard and thick to chew. I still believe this is one of the best crossaint places within Santa Clara/West San Jose area, but only in this limited region. For the three pastries we ordered, it costed $26, not worth the price is my take. In addition, there is only one cashier to checkout, creating a long wait line. Not very effective.

If you haven’t been to Croissante in Santa Clara yet, you’re seriously missing out on a little slice of buttery heaven. This place isn’t just a bakery, it’s an experience for your senses. The moment you walk in you smell the rich aroma of freshly baked pastries, and honestly, it’s enough to make you forget whatever diet you thought you were on. What makes Croissante stand out isn’t just the beautifully flaky layers of their croissants but the clear dedication to quality. You can taste the difference. Every bite feels like it was made with intention from the high-quality butter to the fresh fruits and real vanilla beans they use in their fillings. Nothing artificial here just pure, honest ingredients, crafted with skill and a whole lot of heart. Their almond croissant and matcha is a must golden, crisp on the outside, soft and delicate inside, with just the right touch of sweetness. The seasonal flavors are always creative and fun, and you can tell they care about keeping things fresh and exciting. It’s the kind of place that turns a simple coffee and pastry run into your favorite part of the day. Absolutely charming, genuinely delicious, and totally worth the hype.

The best croissant in the Bay Area or even outside of France. Each bite is delicate, delicious, flavourful and melts in your mouth. The right crispness and not overly buttery. They have mastered the art of croissant making. We had the mushroom croissant, regular, chocolate filled, mango and pesto. Each had its own uniqueness and was a masterpiece on its own. We also had their Chicken Caprese sandwich and the bread was delicious. I highly recommend this place for it's delicious bakery offerings as well as quick bites. There is always a line on the weekends but it is easier to get in on weekdays. Also they have more locations in the Bay Area. A must visit!

Absolutely loved my visit to Croissante! I tried the white chocolate matcha scone and the mango croissant—both were incredible. The scone had the perfect balance of earthy matcha and sweet white chocolate, and the texture was just right: slightly crisp on the outside, soft inside. The mango croissant was flaky, buttery, and filled with a fresh and vibrant mango flavor that felt super fresh and summery. The space was cozy and aesthetically pleasing, and the service was friendly. It offers a brunch menu and I would love to come back and try it. I visited on a weekend and the inside seating area is pretty full.

My friend introduced me to this haven of baked goodies when I came to visit her. I loved it so much that I made her take me the next time I came back around. We went in early and while there was a small line, I appreciated the fact that it moved at a reasonable pace where we didn't feel impatient and we had enough time to browse all that they had. We ended up getting the pepper sausage danish, the ham and cheese croissant, and the mango and strawberry filled croissants. This four items were split between four people and we were happily stuffed and ready for a mornign of pickleball. Flavors are really good and not too messy. While not as crunchy and flakey as croissants you can find at Butter&Crumble or Quail and Condor, this is a great spot to visit anyhow. Lots of parking, seating, and good food to enjoy here

My sister brought me to this place. She was so excited for their croissants. We live in San Mateo, a good 45 min drive. Anyway, place looks messy, unorganized and one thing that I noticed most of the employees were wearing EarPods while working in the kitchen or baking; that's just gross . Food well... we had some of their pastries. Texture and flavor were nice. The rest of our order never came. 34 min later no food and no one telling us where our food was. I decided to ask for our food and why it wasn't ready. I ask the cashier why it was taking so long, she said something about the kitchen and apologized. At this point we decided to cancel the order . The whole thing ruined the whole experience and our brunch . We got refunded for the items that never made it to the table. Yay! I will definitely stick to the places I know and enjoy Manresa, Tartine, Colette . Highly recommend any of those places!

Give this place their flowers! High quality pastries, worth the wait Friendly staff, great selection of savory and sweet pastries Clean cafe

Excellent excellent yummy pastries and coffee!! Their pastries here is a bit pricey for my taste but, really, they are all really good and tasty. With an unassuming entrance, you'll be able to spot CROISSANTE easily because there's always a long line out the door! And there's good reasons why. They serve nice menu and virtually everything we've tried is excellent. Even their iced tea or cappuccino are made perfectly. You'll start by standing in line, and when it's your turn to order, you'll pick the pastries or food that you like, then proceed to find yourself a seat. Though they're busy, we've never had any problems finding a seat. Of course, one should sit down only AFTER you've ordered, which helps the dining room space stays manageable. Excellent pastries and coffee!! A nice afternoon snack or a perfect place for brunch.

Honestly, this bakery didn't live up to the hype. I came here on a Sunday, and the place was packed--like, never emptied out the entire time. It's definitely a busy spot, but I think people are just buying into the limited options in the South Bay. Honestly, if you're used to San Francisco's bakeries, this place doesn't even compare. The pastries I tried were underwhelming T_T! I had the matcha croissant, the bacon formage bread (a new item), and the ham and cheese croissant. The bacon formage was honestly disgusting--basically bland, burnt bread with mushy cheese spread. The bacon also had a weird, unpleasant smell. The ham and cheese croissant was decent, but way too sweet for my taste, and overall, nothing special. As for the matcha croissant, it tasted like cheap, artificial matcha--definitely not the quality I was hoping for. Overall, this bakery was a total letdown. I honestly regret spending the money, and now I'm left crying over overpriced pastries that overload on carbs lol.

Great quality of product, all baked goods not only look lovely but they taste delicious! Very reminiscent of what you can get in France. The space itself is a bit small, but there is seating/tables indoors. No patio seating. I feel like Croissante is better suited for grab and go. They have a good variety of Brunch items, sweet and savory breads and other classic French patisserie items with a twist as well. Opted for their Pan Suisse au Chocolat and White Sesame and Honey Croissant, as they were out of their Pain au Chocolat and their plain croissants. For something savory, the Salt Bread which is super popular in Korea. To drink a Matcha Latte, they offer alternative milk and can adjust sugar levels. Out of what was ordered, the White Sesame and Honey Croissant was delicious! Super flakey, buttery croissant and the sweetness from the honey and the nuttiness of the white sesame was great! Probably one of the best croissants I've had in a long while. The Pan Suisse was okay, though I wish it had a bit more chocolate to it as it was lacking. Salt bread was delicious and super addicting. Soft pillowy bread, that melts in your mouth and the sea salt is perfectly contrasted with the sweetness of the bread. As for the Matcha Latte, definitely not the best Matcha I've had, barely could taste the matcha and found the milk to be lukewarm despite picking it up quickly at the counter. A lot of items were either out or in the process of being baked, so it can be a game of chance. Service is on the slow side and the line quickly builds as there was only 1-2 people assisting customers with their orders and only one cashier at the register. Price point is reflected in the quality of baked goods. Interior sound is not loud/noisy. As mentioned before, seating is limited. Because you bus your own table/space found that the tables or seats were left dirty or sticky. Would visit again to try more of their sweet patisserie items, the croissant or salt bread though.

Let me first start off by saying I bought way too many croissants so I had to phone in a friend to help me out lol Let's first talk about the ambiance, a little different I know, it was very busy it was 11:00 a.m. they had a line and everything. When I went there there's barely any seating but that's okay, I wasn't going to eat there. Workers there were super nice but trying to tell them what I wanted was hard because it was really loud. Now, I bought in total 8 items, I don't know why I thought I could eat this all by myself and I'm lucky that someone was willing to eat all eight of these items with me but that being said we were struggling. What I got: Matcha Chocolat : 3/5 I felt like it was exactly what it was supposed to be but nothing crazy good would be better if it was like fresh and toasted Raspberry Cloud croissant : 4/5 I like this one because it felt like it almost had like a marshmallow eat flavor to it because of the bruleeing on top of it Strawberry croissant : 4/5 I'm going to be honest I'm a sucker for strawberry and whipped cream so bias to this Hazelnut Raspberry pain au chocolat : 3/5 This one was interesting because the first buy I had of it I didn't really care for it but then one of the bites had the right ratio of raspberry to chocolate and that's why I bumped it to three out of five White chocolate matcha scone : 2/5 It sounded good but I totally forgot that I also hate scones so it's a good scone but it's a scone at the end of the day. Focaccia pesto mushroom : 3/5 They didn't advertise that there was olives in this so this would have ranked up higher but I hate olives triple chocolate croissant : 5/5 So I gave this one the highest score because where I was eating it the Sun was shining it and so the chocolate melted a lot better and it tasted really good. I recommend warming the chocolate types of croissants! Game changer! Banana cheesecake brownie with almond : 3/5 Taste more like a cake to me than a brownie or even a cheesecake. Overall, I do like this place I feel like you'd be really nice to sit here and eat there but I do think it's a little bit overhype. This is the type of place where I would buy the food and share it with my friends/coworkers.

The holy grail of the baked goods. From the moment I stepped in here , my life was forever changed. I didn't know how utterly amazing it would be to bite into a light , flakey, buttery croissant . It had a nice crunnchy exterior , but the inside was soft , tender & slightly chewy . It was like biting into a piece of heaven. My all time favorites here is the almond croissant ,strawberry croissant, & the Kouigann Amman. If you've never tried the Kouigann Amman you are missing out ! The combination of crispy, caramelized, and slightly sticky on the outside, with a tender, buttery, and slightly chewy interior is out of this world. This place hands down makes the best croissants in the Bay area. Prices are a bit steep for dessert. Bought 4 the last time and it came to about $40 which is pricey for a sweet tooth . Be careful . This place is addicting . Came here 2 days in a row. Although , it may be a bit pricey I'd definitely say it's worth every penny. I also like how they package everything and put it in a nice bag. Need to make another trip back. Getting my sweet tooth cravings =D

Multiple friends told me I HAD to check out Croissante since I'm a home baker who managed to make a half-decent croissant at home and absolute LOVE b. Patisserie's Kouign Amann. I had lunch in Santa Clara today, so I took a detour to visit Croissante before heading home. Croissante is on El Camino Real near Kiely behind the Bank of America. It's much larger than I anticipated with really high ceilings and plenty of seating. Unfortunately, the bathroom was dirty and in disarray. I can see why Croissante is popular to the kids on Instagram. Everything looks great! I admit, I took my fair share of photos too. Even though my friend and I were stuffed from lunch, everything at Croissante looked so enticing, we each bought multiple items. She got a Pain au Chocolat, Kouign Amann, and a Greek Loaf. I bought a regular croissant, chocolate croissant, Kouign Amann, & Cube Croissant. I like their system of placing each item you want on a parchment lined tray so you can add as many or few items as you want before they're transferred to individual baggies and placed in a large handled bag. Once I got home, I tried a bite (or two) of each of my goodies. The first item I was most excited to try was the Kouign Amann. The KA at Croissante is flat and looks like a swirled item. TBH, the top looked a bit overdone and dry. Unfortunately, the mouthfeel confirmed the appearance. The Pain au Chocolat was just okay. I was most disappointed with the Croissant Loaf, which I believe was cooked in a pullman pan to get its squared edges. There was no lamination evident when I cut it open. I'm not sure what I was expecting, but it seemed more like a brioche loaf than a croissant. There was no crisp outer layer or honeycome airiness inside. The one item I thought was made really well was the plain butter croissant. That had a shattering outer bite and buttery open texture inside. I was disappointed with my first experience at Croissante. I'm not sure what all the hype is about. Don't get me wrong--It's not bad by any means. It's a good 3 or 3 1/2 stars. They produce some beautiful items that look very appealing. They just didn't make me do the happy dance, ooh and ahh, or make me want to rush back over to get more. Update: Okay, one day later...I warmed my Kouign Amann for 3 minutes in the air fryer. The super hard exterior softened, and the buttery layers emerged. I was able to enjoy my KA after all, yay!

Have patience. The line moves fast. And the shop is pristine, bustling with happy customers with that authentic bakery butter smell that wafted in the air. I got almond croissant, cube chocolate croissant, raspberry and chocolate croissant, strawberry and cream croissant, and yuzu dessert. Hands down, my favorites were the cube and the strawberry . Even with my gluten sensitivity, I was able to partake in this French delight thanks to flour and butter imported from France. And the croissant held up well - it tasted fresh after being refrigerated for almost a week. A slight issue was ordering - due to the noise the server thought I was done with ordering even though I was not. Easily remedied and I left with my blue bag full of goodies. Will be back soon!

Came here on a Sunday and it was sure busy! Be prepared for a line if you come on a weekend, parking is a little limited - but there is a lot around the Bay Spa and the bank. There's limited seating inside as well so keep that in mind if you want to sit down to eat! The line however does move pretty quickly and the staff go down the line asking which pastry you would like - the hold up is mostly at the register but that can't be avoided! They're very efficient and nice :) The strawberry croissant had a sweet rich custard topped with strawberries and powdered sugar! It was definitely a dessert pastry and we split it with three people for a few bites each! There's lots of different pastries and will have to come back to try the others later on!

The pastries are pretty special. Lots of variety and selections, including a few savory options. Expect to wait about 20 minutes in line on weekends. The tables are first come first serve. It's a little disturbing the number of pastries many people eat in one sitting. I suppose it's not worth lining up for just one pastry.

I found this place by searching Yelp and was pleasantly surprised by it. Loves: + Lots of yummy croissants including both savory and sweet (most are $7-9) + Personal fave was the pepper sausage danish, then the hazelnut raspberry chocolate one + Decent sized parking lot + Wifi so you could hang/work here My main notes are: 1) the place becomes busy in waves so you may find yourself waiting for a table to clear, and 2) croissants come out on a rotating basis so you may find that the one you want later becomes available if you're willing to wait. All in all, I would certainly come back again and try something new!

Croissante is a food instagrammer's haven, serving pretty-looking pastries that are almost too aesthetic to eat. I can definitely understand the hype surrounding this place, which seems to thankfully have died down since their grand opening. The croissants and other yummy baked goods on display near the entrance are mesmerizing and are one of the first things you see as soon as you enter, drawing you further into the establishment. And then one quick glance at the price may bring disappointment. All baked goods were around $7-11, which is definitely on the pricier side for pastries. I do recognize the craftsmanship and thoughtful execution that goes into making delicious and visually-appealing pastries, but I do feel like you can get the same sort of quality at your local Paris Baguette or Tous Les Jour for much cheaper. The croissants didn't disappoint at least, though they also weren't life-changing. I got the matcha cream-filled croissant. The outside crust was nicely golden, crisp, and flakey. The cream filling was a bit disappointing though -- the flavoring didn't quite taste like matcha. I would skip the brunch/lunch menu. Food was okay -- overpriced and underwhelming. Service was also just okay. Workers seem overworked and it took me forever to grab someone's attention when I needed a togo box. Overall thoughts: You're paying for the aesthetics and vibes. Get the croissants because at least they taste good and look pretty, but skip everything else. Worth trying Croissante at least once!

They've got a wide array of pastries with many different variations and flavors. Some of them are really good, while others are meh. Some standouts are the savory croissants (Ham and cheese/Chicken and Spinach), Hazelnut Raspberry Pain Au Chocolate, and Almond Croissant. Some that missed the mark are the Apple Chestnut and Caramel Macadamia. Although the croissant base is excellent for all of them, the caramel is super thick and overpowers pretty much the entire pastry and the Apple Chestnut was just kind of boring. I also got a Canele, which I had no clue what it was, but it was pretty lackluster, wasn't really sweet, but neither was it savory. I do recall something with a sausage back in March 2024 that I really liked, but I didn't see it this visit. The staff is friendly, especially when it gets really busy (line out the door) but they greet you with a smile. Inside is pretty spacious (about 20-30) seats and while in line, you just pick whichever pastry you want as you move down the line. It is tempting to always pick the fresh ones coming out and be that as it may, you'll end up with one too many pastries. Overall, great croissants, great selection. It does get busy so be prepared of arrive early.

I'm surprised the rating is not 5 stars. I think it's because this place is so packed that if you rate it 5 stars, you will never able to sit there to enjoy your brunch. Hot dog croissant was awesome. I love bagel dog and this is much tastier and healthier (less carb). Hazelnut croissant had jam inside along with chocolate. Ham and cheese was good! Gruyere cheese. Tasty! Overall, all the croissant was very fluffy and crunchy. You can taste the buttery taste but not overwhelming like some places. They have interesting drinks too besides coffee/espresso. They also have interesting bread. Will have to try it some other time. The only bad experience I had was this 50+ years old Asian woman grab the table before getting the food claimed the mom is in line. The server politely explained the policy that she shouldn't hog the table before she purchase any food. (While 4-6 people standing, holding their food waiting for a table), then this lady made a scene said "I don't want to be kicked out, I'll talk to Sean" (I assume is the owner) she went talked to him and then got in line to get food. There was never a mother after she sat back down. What a shame! Felt bad for the workers and management there when you have to deal with someone so rude, blunt and entitled.

tldr: the croissants here are SO good and flaky and definitely worth a try! ham and cheese croissant - a bit oily but solid croissant foccia pesto mushroom - very oily but nice and soft still mango croissant - not too sweet and mango chunks were half and half sweet and not beat the line at 915am on a sunday, but at 920 the line was out the door!! the line moves incredibly slow too so you're goin to have to wait a while :( you are also only allowed to sit at the tables after you've gone through the line and gotten your pastries, don't be that family who reserves a spot with their stuff while still in line..

We got the basic plain croissant, honey sesame and two other bakes. The croissants were warm and melt in your mouth buttery goodness. I do recommend asking the staff to toast the breads. The ambiance was good and there was plenty room to find a seat. I do recommend coming early in the day as the pastries run out.

Delicious! I could easily come here every day, though that wouldn't be great for my diet or wallet. This is the perfect spot to pick up pastries to share with family and friends. It is a bit pricey, but absolutely worth it. The line can get pretty long, and while there's plenty of parking around the building, it does fill up quickly.

My friend and I stopped by for a late coffee break. The assortment of pastries was okay, I feel like I expected a bit more variety based on the reviews :( I picked chocolate croissant which was pretty regular. Latte was good.

Impressive selection of pastries and true to its name, delicious croissants. Food: 4.5 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 3 Cost to worth it rating: 3 (pretty spendy with many around $7) Return worthiness: yes Highlights: - Impressive long bakery display that extended the length of the place - Strawberry and cream croissant: croissant split open filled with whipping cream and sliced in half strawberries. 4.5 stars - Coconut Pain au Chocolat: deep chocolate flavor inside and macaroon like coconut on top. 4.25 stars - Almond croissant: so buttery and flaky with spot on almond filling. 4 stars Lowlights: - Depending on when you go, they may be out of many items - Not much seating Nice find and want to come back to try the savory croissants.

Amazing pastries! They were constantly rolling out new products when I was in line. We loved everything, was excited for the mango crossaint one, but it was a little too tart for me personally. All the pastries were fresh and even lasted well the next day. Had a great crunch and did not taste stale like other bakeries. Every table was taken when I went around 1pm, food looked amazing but we didn't get to try it out. Will be coming back.

The freshest croissants I've ever had in the South Bay are from here! Croissante is a carb lovers dream. This spot has a major selection of different kinds of pastries, breads, drinks, and brunch items, and croissants are baked fresh daily right in front of you! The one downside is that the service we received wasn't the best. We were approached by a worker and she asked my boyfriend and I what we would like to order. We were not aware of the fact that you order drinks and brunch items at the register. Therefore, when we told her we would like drinks and sandwiches, she seemed to brush us off and said "order drinks and sandwiches at the counter. What pastries can I get for you".. a little off putting but whatever, it was our first time there so now we know for next time. Mango croissant is delicious. Fresh mango, fresh cream, and soft pastry.. it was perfection. The spinach and artichoke danish took me by surprise because I never had anything like it. It's exactly as advertised: spinach and artichoke cream inside of a danish. It worked so well together. The sandwiches are great as well! I love how the smoked salmon avocado toast came with caper berries. Such a unique touch! All in all, Croissante is the perfect spot for soft, freshly baked pastries. It is a little pricey but you receive quality items in return. For sure trying the matcha croissant next!

If you can't tell from my endless reel of pictures... Croissante has become a staple in my choice of cafe on my day off. My favorite item is hands down the mango croissant for sweet and ham and cheese croissant for savory. The drinks aren't mind blowing, but they aren't bad. Parking can be limited on weekdays as a lot of the spots are marked for Bank of America, but you can find parking on the sides of the building. Go early if you plan on dining in as it does get super packed. There's a decent number of seats, but can be hard to find a spot when it gets close to lunch time or if you have a big party. The line may be long, but usually moves quickly. Things do run out, but they are usually continually baking throughout the day so more items will pop up.

I love this place! I went to Croissante on Saturday around lunch time. The place was pretty much packed with a line waiting to buy pastries. Walking in, I was greeted with the aroma of fresh bread and croissants. There was a huge variety of different croissants and pastries. I ended up getting the matcha dream, the ham and cheese croissant, and the mango croissant. Everything I got was scrumptious. The croissants were crispy and flaky and buttery but also soft on the inside. The matcha dream had a strong taste of matcha, which I loved, and the bitterness was nicely balanced by a bit of sweetness from the freshly whipped cream. The mango croissant had fresh whipped cream with chunks of mango. If the mangoes were riper and sweeter, it would have been perfect, but it was still really delicious as is. I appreciated that both of the sweet croissants were not too sweet. The ham and cheese croissant was amazing-it was fresh out of the oven and the cheese on the inside was still gooey and there was a generous portion of ham. There was also a layer of crispy cheese crust on the outside which I loved. I am excited to come back and try some of their other pastries!

Visited Croissante almost after two years. Came here when it opened and it was immensely crowded back then so decided to come with a tea reservation this time. We decided to do high tea with friends and enjoyed our service. The assortment was good but 80% was sweet stuff. A balanced tea with more savory things would have been incredible. While we enjoyed the different delicacies, we felt the sweetness got to us after a point and we couldn't eat more. Regarding the tea, the team only provides you with one type of tea for the table. This was weird because I have been to several tea places globally including ones in the Bay Area where everyone gets to pick their own tea. Here we had no choice but the table had to pick one. This was not the best after paying so much money for each tea. The ambience is diff from most tea places too. It was a regular cafe style place and we had to share our table with another group during tea. There were places which fit 4 people and I was hoping we would get an exclusive table for 4 people reserved since this was a reservation after all. Overall a slightly underwhelming experience compared to most places I have been to for tea.

Saw this place when we were going to get lunch and decided to check it out. They have a lot of interesting pastries to choose from. Almond croissant - 3.5/5, decent almond croissant Strawberry cream croissant - 4/5, a custard-like cream with strawberries inside. The cream is actually quite delicious with the croissant!

They're located next to Bay Spa and there's hella parking spaces in this plaza. I think Croissante is the Erewhon of bakery goods. It's expensive, but you're paying for good quality and presentation! It's pretty cozy and warm inside and the noise level is a little moderate. I always come here for their Kouign Amann and their hazelnut raspberry pain au chocolat. The cube toast was aight, it was too eggy for me. They have more food on the menu as well other than what's displayed, so I suggest checking on Yelp because the menu is all the way at the cash register.

Croissante is a pretty good pastry spot. It def fills the craving when you want a croissant or a fancy pastry, but I don't feel like I've tasted anything there that's super amazing. We've been twice and I have zero memory of what we got the first time. The second time, we got a mushroom danish (first pic), a prosciutto danish (?) (second pic), some kind of eclair (third pic, maybe vanilla or lemon flavor??), and something else that I don't remember (forth pic). The fact that we went just about a month ago and I already can't remember what we got def says something since I normally have pretty good memory of all the good food that I try!! I def think this place is overhyped on social media. Like it's good, but nothing super special. I'd stop by if I was in the area and wanted some nice pastries, but i wouldn't go out of my way to go back.

Immediately transported to bakery heaven as soon as I walked in. I love it when you can smell fresh baked breads/cakes! Line was out the door Saturday early afternoon and every ham cheese croissant was sold out. After we ordered, a new batch of the ham and cheese came out and we were able to ask an associate to add some to our tray. The best items were French toast bread, mixed berry pastry (very light and delicious custard), sun dried tomato chorizo bread and ham cheese croissant. Kouign amann was burnt and hard. Very disappointing. Mango croissant was ok, nothing special despite being really pretty. Coffee took forever so don't expect to get in and out of this place quickly. And like what other reviewers mentioned, this place is "hella" expensive! Parking lot is shared.

Long line to get pastry on the weekend but the line goes very quickly. Clean and nice staff! All pastries I tried were so good! I really liked the mango Croissante. They always have fresh pastry so I would like to come back again!

wow probably the best ham & cheese croissant i have ever had. we went on a monday morning, luckily no line. the service is amazing! everyone is really kind. there are tons of tables as well & they played relaxing jazz music when i went there which was nice. this is definitely the type of place that you would come to get work done on your laptop or catch up with someone. our goal is to come back on a random weekday as the queue in the morning can get super long on the weekends. overall, a great experience!

Been here twice now on the weekends and there is always a line up out the door but it does move fairly quickly. They have so much to choose from but more sweet than savory options and they will bring out fresh batches straight from the oven. I also saw new menu items the second time I went. In addition, they have sandwiches, salads, coffee, tea etc. It's always busy and bustling but because of that the tables are not maintained after the customers leaves and the floor is dirty with debris etc. I'd give it 5 stars if the seating area was better maintained.

This place was so good! So many delicious options, their croissants were not too sweet at all either. I got their Almond Croissant, Chicken & Spinach Croissant, and their Matcha Chocolate. For all three the total was about $21. Definitely wish I got their Matcha dream, it looked really good.

A friend and I had lunch here recently and I really enjoyed it. Its a very popular place so expect to stand in line for quite awhile. The line tends to ebb and flow depending on how much people are ordering. They have some actual entrees and then tons of bakeries items. All kinds of different croissants, breads and other pastries. I ordered a ham and brie sandwich. It came on sliced bread that was very tasty. Good flavors all around. Side salad was tasty too. I also took a Almond Kouign Amann and Red wine fig & cream cheese baguette home to eat later. The Kouign Amann was really good. Flaky pastry and good flavor. The baguette need butter added to it as it was pretty dry but I liked the flavor. I also had a chai latte with almond milk that was very flavorful, not too strong. I definitely want to go back to try some of their other pastries.

My eyes have a bigger appetite so I have gotten so much from this bakery. Whole family loves it! So far, I love their Sesame & Honey croissant and Chocolate croissants the best (pain au chocolate or the triple chocolate version!). Flaky, buttery but not too heavy, still light, just perfect!! Even though I LOVE fresh cream + croissant, their cream-filled ones just doesn't have that crunch. I had their matcha cream but it was more like a custard and it was way too suspiciously green without a strong matcha flavor. I prefer their traditional croissant better than the cube croissant - it felt too dense. If you order any for takeout, the croissant gets soggy quick. If they sold fresh whip cream on the side, I would pair that with a plain croissant any day. I love that this place uses natural ingredients with no preservatives. And flour from France makes a huge difference! Our family has cut processed food because of health reasons. We thought one person became gluten intolerant but turns out the flour from US is too heavily processed. We could eat fine in France and Italy. This is the only place she can eat gluten and feel completely A-Ok! . One of my bucket list has been to eat an amazing croissant in Paris and honestly this is as good!! Except it will never be as cheap as in France in the bay area. But hype is real. It's been pretty hard to park on weekends. There is always a line but it goes by super quick. Croissants restock FAST so everything feels quite fresh. There's ample seating but it's quite busy. The staff has been super nice admist the chaos!

Kaitlynn is so sweet like the desserts here. It used to be a gluten-free bakery and now it's French. They have delicious pastries and I want a lemon Yuzu tart. They have coffee and cappuccino and matcha latte. Everything is baked and the other location in Santa Clara and brought over multiple times a day. Come and check it out! It's set back from the street so you have to look for it.

WOW - this one word describes Croissante with efficiency! The pastries are devine. The brunch/ lunch menu is devine. The service is quick and easy. Seats are few and parking lot is packed. If you arrive during rush hour you're going to be looking for parking for awhile. I've been here half a dozen times now and nothing I've had is not utterly delicious. It truly is worth all the hype!

Context: My brother saw how popular this bakery was on social media so he wanted to try it. Recommendation: Will not come back and wouldn't recommend it to my friends. I only had one croissant so maybe the other items on the menu are better. But if the bakery is croissante and I'm eating a regular butter croissant, I would've expected more. Why? Food (1/5): I order the regular butter croissant. The bottom of the croissant was stodgy, there weren't any layers on the bottom. The croissant taste wasn't bad, but it also wasn't memorable. It also had a baguette taste to it. Beverage (1/5): I ordered an iced chai latte. Sadly, it was essentially milk with a drop of chai. Very disappointing since I really enjoy chais. Ambiance/Space (4/5): It was nice inside. Decent amount of tables as well.

Too pricey for the quality. I ordered a chocolate croissant and a ham & cheese croissant for $15.05. Surprisingly, the ham & cheese croissant dough was sweeter than the chocolate one, which left me quite confused. I intended it for breakfast, but the sweetness made it unsuitable for the purpose. Service was relatively quick at 7:45 AM, but I can't speak to how efficient they are during peak hours. While they offer drinks, this is primarily a bakery, not a cafe. The atmosphere wasn't conducive to lingering; the loud music gave me the impression that they preferred customers to quickly grab and go. I'm curious why reviews with less than 4 stars seem to be hidden.

Came here for the first time today with a friend and had a great experience all around! I got their Croissante Tray, and it was delivered in such cute aesthetic plating, and a lot more food than I expected! Everything was delicious, and a pretty healthy meal option. The croissant was delicious, flaky, and buttery and tasted even better with the lavender berry compote. I also ordered an iced matcha oat milk latte - PSA for everyone out there, but they do not sweeten their matcha lattes! Luckily I had asked them that and so asked for a small amount of simple syrup in mine. But honestly the matcha tasted good even without that much sweetener (probably higher grade). And I prefer drinks less sweet anyway. Service was polite, friendly and attentive, with employees happy to answer our questions about the pastries (my friend bought a couple to go), or get us to-go containers when we needed them. It's a very spacious bakery with many people chatting or hanging out in groups, with a private lot that has plenty of parking as well. I will definitely come back in future to try more of their specific pastries!

Oh my goodness, never come here when you are hungry because I did and I went a little nuts! Everything looks so good. I had the mango crossiant which was so good. They also had a strawberry crossiant which I feel like was good enough for NorCal since I can get my creampan fix! They had a good mixture of savory and sweet and everything I had over the next few days was so good. I saved the cube crossiant and probably had it a bit too late. It got a bit stale so I definitely recommend buying enough to eat within a week or putting the rest in containers that are airtight so that the pastries don't get a little stale. Just a heads up that you choose your pastures and then pay at the end. There are drinks you can purchase too and I liked what I had! It's been awhile so I don't remember but I do know both my friend and I liked what we drank. The inside was a cute and seating was right given how popular this place is. So if you have a friend who can snag a table, I'd do that as well as if there is a line, have friends get in line while the driver finds parking. Otherwise, parking was a little tight! You're going to a Korean complex where there are a lot of other good restaurants as well as a Korean spa so parking can get tight. If meeting with friends, I highly recommend carpooling so you're only dealing with one car circling versus multiple cars circling.

What a fantastic place to grab croissants and other pastries! I tried a variety of items including the matcha chocolate and almond croissants, matcha scone, mushroom danish, pepper sausage danish, walnut cranberry bread, and the cookies and cream palmi carre. Everything was amazing and there wasn't an item I wouldn't order again. I could come by another couple more times and still wouldn't be able to try every single one of their selections so I'm super excited to return again. Also got their hot matcha latte which was solid too! Also would order again. I can see why this place would be pretty crowded on the weekends so I would try to come on weekdays if you can.

This review is for just 2 of the croissants that sis brought for me-- I've never been to the actual location before so I won't be able to comment on that. For these 2 croissants alone, this place is praise worthy. If you've followed me for awhile, you already know my love of sweets. When I say sweets, I love them across the board ranging from Chocolate bars (Think Twix Bars, Ferrero Rocher, See's), cakes, cookies, pies, tarts-- you guys get the point. When I kept hearing about these croissants, I couldn't help but be curious. I just hadn't had the time to drive over there to try them. Lucky me, I had them delivered from sis since she works not too far from there. She picked them up on her way home from work. When I pulled out the Hazelnut Raspberry Pain au chocolat from its individual bag, I had to take a moment to admire how hefty it was from all the filling and actual hazelnuts placed on top. Talk about major goodness. One bite of this and I instantly knew that it was a winner. They don't skimp on chocolate as you can see from the pic. The raspberry was not only on top but drizzled inside. The hazelnuts added on top gave it a nice added crunch. 5/5 stars. As for the Mango Croissant, I was a little hesitant because I've never had fresh fruit incorporated into a croissant. On the side yes? But on top, No. This one was so big, they put it in a paper hot dog holder to make sure it held together. I also had to slice this one down the middle because I wasn't going to be able to finish it. Alas, I didn't get to take a picture of the inside because I was too excited to try a bite. Excited for good reason because this one beat my expectations. The mangos used are the perfect amount of ripe- still firm but not overly so. None of the pieces were mushy how overripe mangos are. What you don't see is the cream filling that was sitting right underneath the mangos. Sis said it right when she said the croissant was "refreshing." You must try this if you haven't. Now, I just have to make into the actual location so I can try more flavors OR just get more of these winners.

I love this place! Croissants galore and other tasty treats. I came during the week around lunchtime, and the dining area was kind of busy, but there were still tables available. It was definitely hard deciding which one to try, but ended up getting a mango croissant, a matcha croissant, and a mango passion egg tart. All of these were so delicious! I would totally get all three of them again! I love strong matcha, so their matcha croissant was perfect for me. The cream they added to the mango and matcha croissants was so light and not sweet at all. And that mango passionfruit tart... amazing!! I'm kind of drooling just thinking about it. I also decided to try the carbonara. It was only okay, kind of bland. I'd definitely come back to try out other pastries and dishes on the menu. The staff and service here are super nice as well!

After a hearty meal at Seoul Gom Tang, my friend and I decided to satisfy our sweet cravings at Croissante. The place has a charming, cozy cafe vibe--perfect for working on your laptop while indulging in some buttery goodness. It was a busy afternoon, so most seats were taken, and we found ourselves at a crumb-filled table (a minor miss, but nothing too crazy). As soon as we walked in, we were greeted by an impressive display of croissants in all sorts of creative variations. Seriously, if you're into croissants, you'll feel like a kid in a pastry-filled candy store here! I spotted a tray of freshly baked raspberry hazelnut croissants and couldn't resist. It leaned a bit sweet for my taste, but not in a bad way at all. My friend went all out and ordered their popular strawberry cream croissant along side with a few other croissants. It was deliciously balanced--just the right amount of sweetness without going overboard. One thing I didn't realize until later was that there's a menu with coffee options. A hot cup would've been the perfect companion to these croissants, so I'll definitely keep that in mind for next time. And of course, the aroma inside was everything you'd expect--sweet, buttery, and just heavenly. If you're ever in the area and craving a little pastry escape, Croissante is definitely worth a stop!

Very busy bakery, line is very long, hope the items we ordered are as good as it looks. We got: cube croissant, honey while sesame croissant and almond kouign Amman.

I went to Croissante on a Saturday afternoon and it was pretty crowded and hard to find parking. It was also choose your own seating, but it was hard to find a seat. The service by the staff is average, no complaints. The interior ambiance was alright, but nothing special for a bakery place. The baked goods had a lot of variety and 2-3 could fill me up: - Ham & Cheese Croissant: (4/5) Good sweet and savory combo. Solid choice if you want to a brunch type food - Pecan & Cinnamon Roll: (5/5) A cinnamon roll with pecans mixed in. Very crunchy and creamy. Really enjoyed this one - Pain Suisse au Chocolate: (2/5) It's alright, nothing really stood out. I wish it also had more chocolate. - Caramel Macademia Croissant: (5/5) Not too sweet and the macademia nuts are a great addition. High recommend this item! - Squid Ink Caprese: (4/5) It's a good savory dish. It has the consistency of a thin crust pizza. - Matcha Chocolat: (3/5) Very sweet and there was more chocolate than matcha flavor. Get this if you have a huge sweet tooth

Decided to come here since it was closeby from the restaurant that i had lunch. They're known for their different style of croissants and other pastry. They do have a cafe with tables if you want to dine in. If you wanr the pastry only, there's a glass area which they have all the pastry in stock. A worker behind the pastry glass counter will grab a tray and you tell them which pastry you want. Once you are done picking the items you want, the staff will put your tray of pastry by the cashier staff. The pastry are tasty and sweet. Price is a little pricy. Be prepared to wait since this place seems to always be busy
