“The croissants at Librae (instagram @libraebakery) have incredible flavor, great flake (I’m not a super-flake guy), but of the “top croissants” I’ve tried so far, it’s the only one that I’ve felt was way too greasy feeling.”

“I had the same experience as you. I was so excited to sit outside and enjoy my pistachio croissant, but it was so greasy that it dripped all over my bag and the bench and I had to do an emergency clean-up lol”

“my favorite cookie in the city is librae's tahini chocolate chip. I am not the biggest tahini fan but the flavour profile is done so well and it's not overpowering.”

“One of the best croissant products I’ve ever had. Imagine the best croissant you’ve ever had combined with a luscious, silky, and super pistachio-forward rose baklava.”

“Have you tried the scone?? I wonder how they make it, it was soooo airy I almost think it was yeasted. I almost like it more than the croissant.”

“I had a sort of elongated bagel. We loved it so much I think we ordered a second one. It was the standout.”

“Same, got a croissant that wasn't even as good as the ones at the local French bakery, Le Fournil right nearby. The croissant lacked flavor, is the best way I could describe it. Same with the pain au chocolat, I guess there's something weird they're doing with their pastry dough.”

“Rose pistachio croissant, again very very decadent and buttery, delicious, but one is all I can handle for how rich it is.”

“I’ve never liked their “instagramable” pastries - croissants, danishes and filled cupcakes. Their cookies would be a top contender if the quality was more consistent but their best items to me have and will be sandwiches, focaccias, savoury pastries and cinnamon rolls”
