croissant in Paris

7 places for croissant in Paris, picked by creators — with what they said.

• Du Pain et des Idées — Mark Wiens, TOPJAW, Locavore Eats
  A deeply buttery croissant, crisp outside and noticeably denser and heavier inside than most, an escargot layered with pistachio cream and chocolate, and the signature loaf with its crackling crust and airy, open crumb — all of it, in his words, top-tier pastry.
  Heads up: He'd heard the line stretches well outside the shop, so he recommends going early in the morning.
• Pullman Paris Tour Eiffel — 또 떠나는 남자 ddoddunam, Les Frenchies
  Said it offers the closest view of the Eiffel Tower in Paris, with a view better than any palace hotel, plus a clean, practical stay with decent service and price.
  Heads up: Lacks the prestige of a palace hotel and has no pool; for a guaranteed Eiffel Tower view, you must book a 'Deluxe Balcony Eiffel Tower View High Floor' room (lines 5-6, which are actually farthest from the tower) — the Superior rooms have no balcony and may only offer a partial view, while the Classic rooms have no view at all.
• La Maison d'Isabelle — Locavore Eats, Jeremy Jacobowitz
  The award-winning butter croissant was perfectly golden, crisp and packed with butter flavor, and the pain au chocolat and apple turnover were beautifully light and flaky.
• Café Dose — Lucile
  Praised for buttery croissants delivered fresh each morning from the neighborhood bakery, unusually large cups of house-roasted coffee (rare in Paris), and a sidewalk terrace lined with classic Parisian chairs.
• Tout Autour du Pain — Locavore Eats
  The crisp, buttery layers were on another level — the best croissant of any bakery they visited — and the almond pastry filling was outstanding.
• Cedric Grolet Café — Messinger Guides
  Heads up: Warned that tourists line up for a 20-euro croissant, and that this isn't a truly authentic Parisian experience.
• Bo&Mie — Locavore Eats
  The raspberry croissant was as good as it looked, the praline pastry had buttery layers and a hazelnut chocolate filling, and the kouign-amann was the crispiest, most buttery they've ever had.
  Heads up: They suggest ordering a coffee with the plain croissant so you can dunk it.
