La Baquette Et Compagnie

Great croissants !. The girl and I are suckers for croissants. We purchased an almond croissant and an almond chocolate croissant. The staff was kind of passive but nothing bad. <br/ <br/ The almond croissant had a nice pasty filling and tasted great like a double baked one should. The almond chocolate croissant surprised me. From my initial standpoint, I thought it was simply a chocolate croissant with some almonds sprinkled on top, but to my surprise, it also had a layer of the creamy almond paste on top of the chocolate. What a pleasant surprise !<br/ <br/ Priced at $3.35 each I believe, they were definitely a steal. I still can't believe the almond chocolate was priced the same as the almond but man, those were some good croissants ! Highly recommend.

This is a small French-style bakery/cafe located on Davie they have another store on Broadway, in Kits), serving up a variety of pastries, cakes, and sandwiches. I've previously visited the Broadway location of Baguette Co last year, where I've tried their Chocolate Success and Lemon Tart, both of which were quite good. During my visit to their Davie location, I got their Quiche Lorraine and Apricot Almond Pie. I also asked for their Royal Chocolate Cake, but unfortunately the staff made a mistake and I wasn't paying attention) for when I got home, I found that I got the Chocolate Success again oh well). Mistake aside, I did enjoy the food, and the prices are quite reasonable. This is definitely worth a visit.<br/ <br/ Quiche Lorraine $5.95):<br/ 3/5<br/ This contained ham and eggs, and was topped with some herbs I think it was rosemary/thyme). The filling itself was delicious, and was creamy with plenty of ham and would have been 4/5 on its own). I really didn't like the herbs however: they were dry and the flavour was very strong and really did not go well with the rest of the dish.<br/ <br/ Apricot Almond Pie $4.75):<br/ 3.5/5<br/ This consisted of a crust that's filled with almond paste, apricot, and almonds. The filling was very flavourful: they have a generous amount of almond paste and apricrots, and lightly sweet. The bottom crust was a bit tough and gummy, but the edges were flaky. <br/ <br/ Chocolate Success $5):<br/ 4/5<br/ I had actually asked for the Royal Chocolate cake, since I've already had this one before at the Broadway location, but unfortunately the staff made a mistake and gave me this cake instead oh well). This consisted of two thin layers of cake sandwiching chocolate mousse, and is coated in another shell of chocolate. The cake was moist and tender, while the mousse as luscious and rich. I do find the outer chocolate to be a tad waxy.<br/ <br/ Summary:<br/ Food: 3.5/5<br/ Price: 4/5<br/ Service: N/A<br/ Overall: 3.5/5<br/ Recommendations: Chocolate Success

I actually didn't go to any particular location, we stumbled upon this company in Surrey. They came out for Cloverdale days (Cloverdale shut down a street for a day and had lots of vendors). The baked goods are to die for. If money wasn't an issue, I'd have bought the guy all out of his baked goods. My tummy was very happy. You could tell the goods were baked fresh and daily. Will be to their store front soon enough.

Not bad. I agree with many other reviewers here. Their pastries are good. I ordered the petite cake and tarts. The only thing that they can improve is using real chunks of Apple in Apple turnover instead of finely blended apple sauce. I will return for sure to try their almond croissant!!

I grabbed a lemon blueberry muffin from here the other day, and it was great. Just a really nice muffin, served by a wonderfully friendly and smiling staff member. Well priced product and great quality. How can you go wrong?
