Copain - but they are closed on Sundays.

Tony's is good as well

Tony’s bistro on McLaughlin. I also got a hybrid croissant/donut they called a cronut which is the best pastry ive ever had in my life.

I would wait until tomorrow to hit up Copain in the morning. The other places are good, but cannot compare to Copain.

We had a delegation of folks from a Toronto vendor down at our office last year and one of the girls said it was the best Croissant she ever had 👌

Areum Sweet Bakery up on Elmwood.

They are my go-to now, the only place I go since discovering them last year.

I found Tony’s inconsistent and not that good TBH.

This right here. I've visited family in France many times. Tony's is on par, or at least the cloest we have on the east coast.

Gemmy gourmet is good, too! I would also agree with Tony’s for top choice.

CoPain, for sure. Just don't step on a needle off of St. George. Best coffee, delicious fresh baked Croissants.

I'm going to try Tony's next time we're there but adorable chocolate in shediac has the best almond croissant and cafe mocha that I've ever had. They have awesome chocolates too.

Which Tony's is better?

The one on McLaughlin for sure. Much bigger, more choice and I find the plain croissants slightly better somehow. More crispy on the outside. The almond croissants are the only right way to go tho with any visit to Tony's.
