🥐 Halifax’s Legendary Croissant Spot – Two If By Sea Café Review!
📍 Two If By Sea Café 66 Ochterloney St, Dartmouth This Dartmouth ferry-side gem has been breaking hearts (and diets) since 2009 with flaky, buttery croissants bigger than your face – worth every carb-loaded bite. 🏆 Why It’s Iconic ✔ Croissant supremacy: Hand-rolled, European butter, 48-hour process ✔ Size shock: Plain croissant = 2 meals (no joke) ✔ Dartmouth bonus: Post-bite ferry rides with harbor views 🥐 Croissant Ranking 🥇 Almond Croissant ($6.50) ★★★★★ Crunchy almond crust, light frangipane, not-too-sweet – perfection. 🥈 Everything Bagel Croissant ($7) ★★★★☆ Garlic cream cheese, sesame/poppy seeds – savory lovers’ dream (skip if hate cream cheese). 🥉 Pistachio Croissant ($7) ★★★☆☆ Nutty paste overload – share or regret. ☕ Latte ($5) ★★☆☆☆ Overly milky, weak espresso – walk to Café Good Luck instead. 💡 Pro Tips ✔ Best for: Weekend indulgence, pastry pilgrimages, Dartmouth explorers ✔ Timing: Arrive before 10AM (almond croissants sell out fast) ✔ Skip if: You prefer dainty French patisserie (these are Nova Scotia-sized) 💰 Damage: ~$10-15 per person #HalifaxEats #CroissantHeaven #Dartmouth
