Best Croissants in the Boston Area?

I do not care for the ones at the Buttery-they don't have the dense texture I crave. I also find them a bit dry. South End Formaggio down the street has tastier ones. I also love the ones made by Canto 6 in JP. Canto 6's are delicious.

Try Temptations on Huntington Ave By Northeastern and the YMCA. They're homemade and delicious!

The best croissants I've had in the area are from Quebrada Bakery in Arlington. They are buttery and flaky and not too dense. If you go early you might get one fresh out of the oven, as they are baked daily.

Tatte in Brookline has the best.

There is a new bakery in Dedham called La Luce. Their croissants, ham&cheese and plain are to die for!! Hoping they will add almond. They also have chocolate.

Strange as it may be, the best croissants - at least pain au chocolat I've had in the area have been at Pret au Manger. They are always warm and almost perfect.

Thinking Cup, North End location is preferred since the one on Tremont is always too crowded.

Another vote for Quebrada in Arlington! My husband grew up in France and they pass his very high standards.
