finally had a chance to grab croissants from Heavens Bistro. They sold out fast in the past but now they always have them! so flakey and buttery.

    I live right around the corner from this place and love it! Their croissants really are awesome and they have a nice patio in the back of the building

    Let’s call that Pflugerville instead, why do I live so south?!

    I’ve been meaning to post asking for croissant recs this week so thank you for this.

    The dough to air ratio is blowing my mind.

    Hands down. The second best used to be at Kneaded Pleasures, but is likely now at Upper Crust. The owner is _legit_ a French-trained pastry chef, and she’s amazing.

    Yum! Now if I could find a good panaderia

    Pic #3 is not a croissant. You know that, right?

    Seriously, though, it’s a good bakery and I’m glad we have it here in north Austin (which is, I might add, not Pflugerville).

    Croissants and Panna Cotta are both always perfect

    Yep. This spot is very good.

    Hate knocking other places, but some of the other croissants sold in Austin are laughable. Buttery dough cakes shaped like croissants.

    The everything croissant at quacks is a contender

    Anyone remember Chez Fred on Guadalupe years ago? Best strawberry butter with fresh croissants!!! Yummy as a college kid who lived across the street on 32nd.

    What would you eat those with…. i wish more Hispanic pll ate good tasty breads…. but i don’t even know how to eat them, or with what …

    Love them and their cowboy cookies!!

    I really like these. I think they would be truly world-class if they found a custom butter supplier that could bring a richer flavor, since the butter is where most of the flavor comes from. I think if they did that they would need to make 10 times as many every day because this place would turn into a hot spot like RR Doughnuts, and I’m here for it.

    edit: And a hint more salt. The flavor is pretty bland.

    What time do I need to arrive to get some fresh croissants?

    The two most authentic French croissants in Austin are:

    #1) [Julie Myrtille](https://www.juliemyrtille.us/) (native Parisian-run patisserie)
    #2) Saveurs la boulangerie (off 360)
