The best bagel in Boston? No questions asked!

🥐 Nouvé Bakery: Lexington’s Croissant Gem—Boston’s Best, Hands Down After readers raved about this new Lexington spot in my comments, I had to go. Spoiler: They weren’t lying. This is easily the best croissant I’ve had in Boston. We arrived around 11 AM on a Saturday, and the popular matcha croissant was already sold out—lesson learned: come early. 🌟 Why It’s a Game-Changer Texture Perfection: The croissants hit that sweet spot—shatteringly crisp outer layers (crunchy, flaky, with crumbs that fall like snow) and a soft, airy interior. The air pockets are evenly distributed, and each bite releases a warm, nutty wheat flavor that lingers. From appearance to structure to taste, it’s flawless. 🥐 Must-Order Flavors Miso Scallion Escargot: 🧅 The standout. A swirled “snail” shape with a salty-sweet miso-scallion glaze. Crisp, buttery, and perfectly balanced—savory notes from scallions, a hint of umami from miso, and just enough sweetness. Best bite of the day. Pistachio Chocolate: 🌰 Rich, nutty pistachio cream paired with dark chocolate—indulgent without being cloying. Classic Chocolate & Plain: 🍫 Both excellent. The plain lets the buttery, flaky texture shine; the chocolate has a smooth, not-too-sweet filling. Blind ordering works here—no duds. ✨ The Only Catch Location: It’s far from central Boston. Lexington isn’t a quick trip, but trust me—these croissants are worth the drive. (Please open a downtown location soon!) Budget Score: 5/5. For quality this good, the price feels fair. Nouvé Bakery doesn’t just make croissants—they’ve mastered them. Whether you’re a pastry snob or a casual fan, this spot will ruin you for all other croissants in Boston. 📍 Nouvé Bakery 1736 Massachusetts Ave, Lexington, MA 02420 #BostonPastry #LexingtonEats #CroissantLovers
