2025 Update

Croissants de France on Duval Street has been closed for about a year or two now, so this Stock Island location now has an expanded menu. While they still have their assortments of croissants and quiches, you can now get sandwiches, omelettes, and more!

Recently, Steven, Indie and I decided to grab lunch here. It was pretty comfortable temperature wise, so we ate in the outdoor courtyard. We ordered at the front and then the food was brought out to us when ready.

I went with an omelet which was so good. Fluffy and buttery and a real delight. Plus, it was a good bit of food, so I was full afterwards. It was also served with a side salad so it made a fine meal, even for lunch! I know several Europeans that come here to grab an omelette because it reminds them of their mom’s cooking back home.

Steven went with a salad topped with tuna. He really enjoyed it, but I think that they should really serve it with a few slices of baguette to round out the meal.

The pastries here are still buttery and delicious. And, the Key Lime pie is one off the best that I have had down here! The only thing that I really do not like here is the coffee. I have tried it on several occasions and I just do not like it, so I get a tea or water instead or grab a con leech from the Dolphin Deli next door.

Croissants de France has opened a second location on Stock Island. On one had, this is amazing because I work on Stock Island and when I want a croissant I am only three minutes away. On the other hand, I am just three minutes away from a croissant six days a week. If my willpower is down that is going to create some havoc for me! But all in all I am thrilled to have this second location so nearby.

Unlike the main Croissants de France on Duval Street, this one does not have a full restaurant attached, so no eggs Benedict, pancakes, or salads are served here. However, they do have a nice selection of breads, quiches, pastries, cakes, and sandwiches. And of course several coffee drinks are also made to order.

Sadly, once I found out that the new location opened I visited three days in a row. On the first day I got a piece of the spinach and feta quiche to go. It was amazing; creamy and flakey all at once. On the second day, I got a spinach and feta croissant and an almond croissant. They were super fresh and delicious. On the third day I got a tuna sandwich. The tuna salad was tasty and wonderfully paired on a butter croissant. I also brought a tuna sandwich back to my husband and he complained that it was too small, but for me it was the perfect size.

Anyway, I am putting the brakes on my visits here for at least a few days! But I am looking forward to trying a Napoleon or a slice of key lime pie on my next visit!

Croissants de France’s Stock Island location can be found at 5620 McDonald Ave. (This is the same building that you can also find Roostica and the Dolphin Deli.) Their hours are 6:30am to 2:30pm, seven days a week.
