Colette Bakery - Melrose — Restaurant in Melrose

I went in to buy some thing sweet and they have 1 million different new pastries and sandwich thingies, like an enclosed grilled cheese sandwich of some kind and pizza pocket thingy along with several beautiful looking french pastries.

A lady who was waiting outside prior to opening at about 7:30am raved about the “Saturday only” Almond chocolate croissants and I had bought one with chocolate.(they have almond croissabts too)

It is crunchy and chewy-ish with some nice sweet flavors on the inside and out.

I give it a 10! Does not seem like a fluffy thin latered usual croissant with minimal flavor.

It is like a croissant on steroids or growth hormone!

Get it! You will love...

Colette Bakery is a great bakery that has a lot of fresh baked goods and drinks. They were so warm and inviting people. The chocolate croissant is any chocolate person’s dream. The croissant was fresh, flaky, and cooked to perfection. I also really enjoyed the ham and cheese and croissant; but I wish it had more filling. The apple turnover was balanced with classic apple filling. It tasted super fresh, flaky, and delicious. The Buche chocolate caramel was delightful chocolate mouse and rich dark chocolate ganache. It’s place I hope to come back to! It’s worth a stop for sure. It’s a sweet...

Not my favorite - the pastries and desserts were a miss but maybe the savory foods are better!The cinnamon roll was meh - I wish it was softer but it was kind of dry even though we got there at 9:30. Not pictured but we got a macaron and chocolate hazelnut cookie that were all okay. I also got a matcha that was watery. The staff was really nice though!

Overall, I don’t know if I would go out my way to go here again :/ nothing really stood out but it’s...
