Colson is where French tradition meets Brooklyn's industrial spirit. It’s the perfect place for a morning "cafe au lait" and a croissant, or to pick up a box of financiers to impress your dinner party host.

Flavour 4/5 - beautiful flavour, great flakiness and just right on the butter, an inch away from perfection Affordability 5/5 - €1.40 for the croissant Je ne sais quoi - 5/5 - I LOVE this place! It's the oldest patisserie in Paris. The area is gorgeous. AND you can get my favourite Paris souvenir here - mini croissant made of marzipan!

Flavour 4/5 - I had the pain au chocolat here as they are famous for chocolate, it's good but I've had better! Affordability 3/5 - €2.90 this is a patisserie on the higher end Je ne sais quoi - 3/5 - it's nice but as it is a chain it feels a little clinical, without personality

Flavour 4/5 - Delicious - but I couldn't finish it, just a little dry. Affordability 4/5 - €1.90 Je ne sais quoi 5/5 - I love it here, I do. Chocolate bears everywhere. The best patisserie. I had the Black Forest gâteau and it was incredible.

Flavour 5/5 - wow! super unusual shape (it is long) but delicious flavour and a special crispiness on the outside. Affordability 2/5 - €4 for the croissant, but so delicious it's kinda worth it, it is the Ritz after all Je ne sais quoi 5/5 - the chef was there, chatting to us about various new recipes for Madeleines. There is also a cute indoors area which can get busy so get there early!

TRY THE WALNUT CROISSANT Flavour 5/5 - walnuts. in a croissant. absolute genius. I loved it. the rest are also good! Affordability 3/5 - €2.80 for the croissant, but so delicious it's kinda worth it Je ne sais quoi 5/5 - the vibes are Parisian baroque aesthetic, exquisite. and the staff will happily explain to you macaron flavours for days

Flavour 4/5 I had the pain chok and the croissant bretzel: I am super impressed. The bretzel croissant was savoury but not too salty, perfect layered texture. The pain chok had SO much delicious chocolate in it. Affordability 2/5 Paid €4.10 for the pain chok, €3.90 for the croissant bretzel, and patisseries were around the €8 mark. Save this for a special occasion. Je ne sais quoi 4/5 I was most impressed by how kind and helpful the staff were, and beauty of the pastries.
