Flavour: 3/5 You can get a very standard croissant here - it's a little too buttery and heavy for my taste. Affordability: 5/5 Typical bakery prices, most goodies are under 1.50! Je ne sais quoi: 5/5 Its pink interiors are adorable, but the real winner is the terrace, with its little olive trees, which is bathed in sun in summer.

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!

BAKERY CHAIN Flavour 4/5 - the plain butter croissant is just ok, but oh wow this place has a great range of things and the score is boosted by the rocher croissant which is a chocolate bomb and is amazing, or the pistachio one ooooffff Affordability 5/5 - €1.50 for a croissant, and all the fun creative goodies come with a premium Je ne sais quoi 4/5 - I really enjoy their relaxed but elegant aesthetic and the creativity that goes into innovative viennoiseries and patisseries

Affordability 5/5 - €1.20 for a croissant a stone's throw from the Eiffel tower, not bad Je ne sais quoi - 4/5 - so beautifully decorated and if you're lucky you'll get a table outside and people watch for hours. The hot chocolate is incredible.

Flavour 3/5 - VEGAN croissant here! it's a little dry in texture but otherwise lovely Affordability 4/5 - €2 for the croissant Je ne sais quoi - 5/5 - cute vibe café, everything is vegan, very nice to find a quiet peaceful moment right in the centre of Paris

Flavour: 3/5 I had really high hopes but it's quite an average croissant. Affordability: 2/5 The croissant was over €2 and I don’t get it since this area is supposed to be more affordable. Je ne sais quoi: 3/5 I love this area with the gorgeous street art, but the bakery itself is reasonably plain.

Flavour: 5/5 An impressive croissant, good texture, strong on the butter. Affordability: 2/5 It costs €3 so it's definitely on the expensive side. But it's right in the jardin du Palais Royal so makes sense. Je ne sais quoi: 5/5 This is of the best parts of Paris: Palais Royal. The garden is perfect to walk around in with a croissant and coffee so you can get yours here.

Flavour 2/5 - this one is too greasy and heavy for me! Affordability 5/5 - €1.30 for the croissant Je ne sais quoi 3/5 - a high end neighborhood boulangerie but not much more

Flavour 5/5 - one of the absolute best in Paris Affordability 5/5 - €1.20 at a true neighbourhood price Je ne sais quoi - 2/5 - the staff are lovely, but nothing special beyond that, also beware a bit of a queue but it moves fast

Flavour 2/5 - the croissant was dry and meh, totally expected better from one of the top boulangers in France Affordability 5/5 - €1.40 Je ne sais quoi 4/5 - a nice chill vibe in the middle of the city

Flavour 2/5 This was unfortunately a bit of a dry croissant. Affordability 5/5 Standard pricing, but not worth it Je ne sais quoi 3/5 It's a beautiful listed building in a cute neighbourhood! But other than that, I did not feel like this boulangerie was worth a trip.

Flavour 3/5 It's a good texture and reasonably crispy Affordability 5/5 €1.20 is near enough the cheapest you will get a croissant in Paris! Je ne sais quoi 3/5 A couple of little tables you could sit at if you want, nothing super special.

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 2/5 - no actual croissants, but they had little croissant shaped treats called rugelach, that were just a bit too sticky for me. Affordability 3/5 - €1.70 Je ne sais quoi 3/5 - small, not in a cosy way but in a stuffy way. I didn't love it.

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 I had the zaatar croissant and it was unreal. Wow. Possibly the best savoury croissant I've eaten? The texture is good, the flavour is PERFECT. Affordability: 5/5 €1.40 for a fancy zaatar croissant which was astonishing - usually the specialty croissants are much more. Je ne sais quoi: 5/5 Nothing crazy about the bakery, but I was today years old when I learnt that Nicolas Flamel was a real person and his house is still standing right here in Paris, 2 doors down from this bakery. Mind blown.

Flavour 3/5 Croissant is a good level of crispy, a nice flavour to it. But the eclairs were better 😂 Affordability 4/5 The pastries and cakes are very reasonably priced! The artisan bread is expensive but delicious (€5 for a small loaf, hello!) Je ne sais quoi 4/5 I love the little set up where the cafe is on one side and the bakery is on the other. I kind of wish more bakeries had this type of seating.

Flavour 4/5 - very fluffy and tasty SQUARE croissant Affordability 3/5 - €6 for a small breakfast menu Je ne sais quoi - 2/5 - I went in with high expectations for this bakery / restaurant / bar, but I wasn't so impressed with sitting in - best for a takeaway if you're in the area

Flavour: 2/5 Slightly below average, a bit flavourless sadly. Affordability: 5/5 €1.5 is normal Je ne sais quoi: 4/5 A little tight on space, but very cosy and really friendly team.

Flavour: 3/5 A decent fluffy croissant, very buttery. Affordability: 4/5 I paid €8.50 for coffee and a croissant to sit in, which is pretty normal for Paris. Je ne sais quoi: 5/5 A really lovely and cosy space to rest in the Marais.

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 3/5 The flavour is all there, a balanced level of butter, but the texture was a little dry unfortunately. Affordability 5/5 The standard for the center of Paris €1.40 for the croissant Je ne sais quoi 4/5 lives up to its name! Gorgeous and for how beautiful it is not too busy. I would love to also try their Marie Antoinette tea room next door!

Flavour: 5/5 Wow. I picked up a fantastic olive bread from here, AND a brioche au chocolat that blew my mind, delicious dark chocolate inside. Affordability: 4/5 Everything is artisanal and very high quality, so it is worth the slightly elevated price, I paid €8 for both bread and brioche. Je ne sais quoi: 3/5 Hidden away, in the 20e, on a street that doesn't have much else, but a cute little spot with an open kitchen!
