Everything I've eaten here is delicious, but if you're in the mood for a sweet brunch the Pain Perdu earns it's place as the name of the store. It's phenomenally yummy.
Gabriel SeahAugust 28, 2020The quality of the pastries here is slightly uneven. The pear pastry was really good - moist, rich & flaky even after 2 days. The Gateau Basque (custard cream cake) was very good - moist & rich.
Carmo SantosApril 3, 2013Best croissants in Toronto and around. Love to go there and have a croissant and latte, is sooooo goooood :-) :-)
D CenttenoFebruary 18, 2012Best pastry, and great french food, but a little pricy. Small place, very comfy and only french music! Delicious :P- Maya RDecember 6, 2014Everyone who works here is legit french so you know it's good. The croissants are maybe the best I've ever had.
- Kathy McLaughlinFebruary 26, 2016Roquefort and leek quiche is always my go-to order at this lovely bakery cafe.
- Gabriel SeahAugust 28, 2020Croissant had many layers but since it was near 3pm, texture was only so-so. The taste was OK. When warmed up it was pretty good - pretty flaky. The cinnamon pastry was pretty flaky but tasted muted.
Best French patisserie in Toronto, maybe in all of Canada IMHO
Ben JohnsonApril 30, 2014Nice place with great pastries but a "no stroller" rule means we often have to pass it by.
C4R0LYN URS4814July 5, 2011Every time I go, I pick up 1 of each kind of croissant they have. They are the best in Toronto.
Warm and cozy atomsphere but no organic milk or soya milk.
