A bit hit and miss, so feel like this is more of a 3.5star kind of place, but rounding up because I like that it's locally owned.
The Good:
Regular croissant: expensive but very good -- flaky, you could taste the rich butter. Definitely the best thing they make.
Raspberry muffin: not overly sweet, crumble topping was crisp, buttery and delicious.
Would definitely come back for both of these and/or try the blueberry muffin.
The Not as Good:
Chocolate Croissant: after the regular croissant, we were disappointed with the chocolate croissant. Didn't seem like it was the same dough -- it was kind of stale and didn't have the same buttery flavor as the regular one. Plus there was only 1 stick of chocolate and it tasted a little chalky.
Service: Service was where they need improvement. We ordered 3 pastries and a coffee. We got the pastries but then waited and waited and waited for the coffee to show up. Finally, we went asked about it, the guy claimed they were "making it right now." Well, there were only 2 people working - the guy we asked who was standing around not doing anything and our original cashier woman who was unsteadily moving bread loaves from the back of the shop to the front of the shop -- so who exactly was making it right now for us? A quick apology that they had forgotten would have gone over a lot better.
Other stuff: Sunday morning at 10:30 at they were sold out of a lot of stuff (only 1 piece of quiche left, no beignets, no almond tarte). Bathroom was out of order. No one cleans the tables.
Overall, I'd say, it's worth going for a regular croissant and a muffin, but just take it to go because the rest of the experience is only OK.
