Ordered a really simple ham, egg and cheese croissant. Took them at least 25 minutes from order to table. When it arrived, both were over cooked and crunchy. Don’t think croissants are meant to be crunchy. To be really honest the croissants at California Dreaming are better:). Plus, the staff is extremely rude. Stay clear from this bakery.12:24 pm. Update after owners response below. There were less than 6 people when we placed our order. People came in after us. We were ready to walk out when they finally brought our order to the table. No, we didn’t eat it all and if I wasn’t so hungry we would have walked out. $24.00 for 2 croissants and 2 bottles of water! The bacon was literally in a ball on one of the croissants. What I find amazing more than anything is the owners response. You do know that customers are what keep you in business don’t you? All good. Will never be back and highly recommend people read reviews before patronizing. It’s certainly what we should have done. Lesson learned.

Just be weary! Nothing about this place is true French patisserie. The croissants and pastries are hard and tough, nothing like a real French patisserie. It was very disappointing for us. The representative pictures online really dont look like anything that was in the food case. We dont plan on going back.As a follow up to the mgmt response, I just came back from 2 weeks in Paris and ate patisserie everyday. My opinion is still the same not real French patisserie.

I’ve walked by this location multiple times in the evening, and remembered this afternoon to look up the phone number/website, to place a sizable order for an upcoming event I’m hosting. To my dismay, reading the owners vile replies to negative reviews clearly indicates to me that he does not value any customer feedback, excluding a glowing five-star review.I will definitely continue my search for a local bakery, in which the proprietor kindly accepts and responds professionally to all concerns/compliments. I would encourage everyone reading this to do the same. Spend your money where you are appreciated and treated well!

I only recently discovered this place a few months ago, and I stop by here every week for some croissant. The pastries are always fantastic and are the best in town. I spent a lot of time in France as a child, so having a local French bakery here is awesome. I don’t understand the negative comments on here about the food. Obviously these people haven’t been to France, and are more accustomed to croissant from a local petrol station, or fast food joint. Oh, the baguette is good too.

I had the ham and cheese croissant at fall for Greenville. As someone who lived off croissants when I visited France, this place has amazing and authentic croissants. I enjoyed the crisp on the outside and the soft inside… not sure why there are some petty people writing bad reviews but I truly enjoyed the croissants! Will visit the store this week as I’m craving another croissant.

This place has nice ambiance, and you should definitely stop by for a cup of coffee or tart, but *skip the croissant.*Mine was doughy on the inside, as it should be, but the outside was crusty, tough, and burnt - more like a baguette texture than the thin and flaky croissant exterior I am accustomed to. It was too dry as well, definitely not enough butter. (I shouldnt have to prove my credentials when writing a review, but I guess here I need to stress that I *do* know what Im talking about when it comes to croissants. After living in Montreal for 7 years and frequenting many traditional french bakeries there, I have an appreciation for authentic croissants)However - the pear and chia tart I had was delicious! Very buttery and soft pastry shell, tender pears, and the chia was a nice addition. The cappuccino was very good as well.

Sitting across the street at Great American Cookies and seeing Le Petite Croissant. I’m visiting my daughter in town for a few days so I got to thinking we could go there the next day for breakfast so I thought I’d check out what people have to say about the food. Well….. reading the owner’s response to customers comments and their frustration with the hours not matching google maps hours! WOW! I haven’t even been in there and I give it 1 star based on how rude the owner is! There are plenty of other great places to eat in Greenville. If you want to run a business you can’t just say, “when the door is locked, we’re closed and when the door is unlocked, we’re open.” Good luck with that!

It is hard to find the words to describe the taste, the texture and the presentation of any item from Le Petit Croissant. Simply put, they all taste as good as they look and maybe even a little more.

The croissant was very heavy, not french. The tarts were a disappointment. Very disappointed in the whole experience. Not worth the time.

I was excited to have an authentic croissant and support downtown businesses participating in the Fall for Greenville virtual discount book I purchased. We looked at the menu in advance and were impressed with the variety of selections and good reviews, but when we arrived a much different experience unfolded. We arrived shortly after noon on Sunday and when we went to order were told the kitchen was no longer open (even though the hours state open until 4) but they could make a ham, egg and cheese or a bacon, egg and cheese croissant, those were the only two options. I inquired about a slice of quiche and was told they only sell half or whole quiches, not slices. We were hungry so settled and ordered the bacon egg and cheese croissant. I did inquire as to when we should plan to arrive next time to ensure the kitchen was open and was told that it depends, but usually it closes between 2 and 3. Again, it was about 12:30 PM when we ordered. I also ordered an iced latte and was told they were out of ice, so I passed and got water.When the food arrived, it looked delicious but was very disappointing. The croissant was tough, the eggs were super overcooked and the consistency of hard boiled egg, and the bacon was underdone and chewy. It tasted 100% microwaved and was fairly inedible, despite my best efforts. The photo is what was left uneaten.The service was terrible as well. No one even checked to see how the food was after it was served to us. Another table inquired how the meal was because it looked so delicious and I had to honestly tell them it was not very good and I wouldn’t order it again. The staff heard this conversation and still said nothing, even after most of my meal was left uneaten.I love supporting local businesses, and would love to give it another try because all businesses make mistakes, but the attitude of carelessness I experienced here would keep me from returning.

This is a difficult time, and for my wifes birthday this week we planned a party where we would serve the French dessert croquembouche. Le Petit Croissant was the ONLY place in the Upstate that could make this for us, and even with changed circumstances the Chef still delivered an AMAZING smaller version to our home for our revised family celebration. I cant thank him enough for the service and delightful quality of this unique treat!

I wanted to try this place but I guess they close whenever they feel like it. They need to update their hours if they want to close early. Luckily we found Old Europe Greenville and it was wonderful. I would not recommend going here because they probably will be closed.

A true hidden gem in the last place you would ever expect. (at least, I wouldnt expect it. Sounds strange to hear the words come out of my mouth say The most delicious croissants as well as meticulous and magically designed pastries can be found in Greenville, South Carolina. Still, it is a true statement and a stop worth taking if you are in Greenville.

First time visiting after experiencing their wine and chocolate tasting @trtastingroom. Breads are much different from the traditional American baguette and croissant. That is to say much better and more flavorful.

The unexpected, in here the coffe is awesome, the breadand fine pastries are great. The place is cool. I would love to see little more kitchen sound and fresh made dishes.

One of my favorite places in town.. if you aint been you ort to cause its a killer spot. Authentic french pastries and bread along with coffee and such. Tell em Memphis sent ya!

Opening hours are not the same on Google and on the store . First time went there, I had checked the hours on Google and they were closed.Gave them another chance, but my experience was terrible. I am from France and this bakery should be ashamed to call itself a French bakery.Went there early afternoon and they were already out of stock on everything. Couldnt even buy lunch or coffee.If you are open, why dont you restock?So all I could buy was two croissants. And it was not worth it. It was very heavy and dense. Not at all how a croissant should be. And dont tell me I dont know what a real croissant is. I lived my whole life in France.Was so excited to try a French bakery here in Greenville, what a disappointment. Want to try a real croissant? Go to Lidl, their croissantsare truly awesome compared to this.

Good almond croissant but denser in texture than I’ve had at many other bakeries. Latte was good.

A must stop if youre staying downtown Greenville. The food is made to order and worth the wait. Staff is always friendly. And dog friendly. 🐕

Finally a fine pastry and chocolate shop in town! Best pastries and chocolates, macarons are amazing and the croissants are to die for! Go check it out asap

Not what we expect very different from the pictures honestly my husband but me the chocolate croissant and 6 chocolates different flavors the attention was very poor I don’t know if was the owner or employee that is why I give them a three starts

$10.26 for a ham and swiss crossaint. Thats crazy

This is an exceptional place. The attention is amazing and the desserts are very flavorful. I ordered a cake (very fancy dessert) and all the flavors and textures match perfectly. Only thing is that at the time I go they ran out of croissants, but Ill be back to get them early. :-). You have to try everything. Thanks for this place in our beautiful Greenville, SC city.

Good food but bad customer services. We got there at 3:50pm the sign on the door said they’re open till 5pm but the door was locked. The lady inside shoved us to leave didn’t even bother to open the door and explain what’s going on. If you don’t need my business I will take it somewhere else!

I wouldnt spend money here again. Wife made an order, wasnt what she ordered, they didnt call her to inform her the order changed and wouldnt provide a refund. Poor customer service and shouldnt be in business. So I still wouldnt spend money here again. 70 wrong items with 30 to make up for it and 10 that are free but wrong. Not worth the money. In my line of business, when we get it wrong, we cover it all, not half. I would be glad to train you and your staff on customer service. My hourly rate is $190/hr. There are at least 5 better bakeries so glad to.

The food was good and the customer service was top notch, a little bit on the pricier side.

Really great croissants! tried the classic and Italian croissant sandwiches, they were out of tomato which I think it was really missing for the overall good taste of the sandwich. I would recommend this place but my only criticism is that they need either paper menus or a large menu to be able to choose items from.

Croissants are OK - nothing great. Expected better from a French place...

What a waste of time, they dont respect their business hours, drove 15 minutes for nothing. I will update my review once I try their products

I was excited to check this place out, but the croissant was quite dense, the service pretty bad and please, switch those styrofoam cups to something more sustainable.

Best croissant I ever had! Toasted ham and cheese was GREAT!

Best croissant Ive ever had

Fresh macarons 👍🏾

The view of the pastries made me walk in when I planned on going somewhere else. We ordered their sandwiches. They were decent- not amazing or bad . We came back couple hours later and purchased fresh baguette and berry tart. They looked so good I had to try them. These have yet to be tried. They do have classes to make fresh macrons - i might purchased it for my wife. The owner is from France.

Delicious!Ive also taken the Croissant & Bread Class, and it was excellent! Fun, interesting, & great food to take home.

Placed an order over the phone, went to pick it up and was told no order was placed.

Amazing croissants and service!! I went in today and they were so friendly and accommodating. Planning on trying a croissant making class this weekend!

Stop by today for breakfast, Croissants are to die for! Fresh local bakery! Donuts are so big you can share, the smell is just amazing the taste is even better.

The smell of fresh bread cooking hits you from the street! The Croissants are not petite, they’re very generous, when it comes to portion size. I’ve only ordered the standard croissant, and it’s delicious! It’s exactly what you expect, flakey crust, and the middle is buttery and soft! I go here on Saturday or Sunday, for my cheat day! Staff is always friendly, too.

Pumpkin pie croissants and double espressos delicious! If I lived here, i would sign up for the Croissant & baguette workshop and the $149.99 annual membership for coffee and croissants! These look just like the ones we had in Montréal.

Try the almond croissant! Fine pastry baked to perfect delight and the nuts are toasted to taste. Its amazing! Its worth the price.

Stopped in to see what they had for breakfast and was somewhat disappointed the only thing available was the almond croissant. I was really hoping for chocolate or some kind of fruit but I decided to give it a chance. Glad I did! It was slightly crisp on the outside and flaky and delicious inside with a generous amount of almond cream in the middle. Around the bottom there were areas of caramelized sugar that were crispy and chewy and added to the overall taste and texture. Best croissant I ever had!

Disappointing Experience.One week in advance, I ordered 20 chocolate macarons , 20 almond macarons, and 20 coconut macrons on a tiered tray for a bridal shower. The owner took the $145 paid order over the phone from me.I arrived a week later to pick up the order the day before the shower. The girl behind the counter said that they added 15extra macarons to the tray (I figured as a kind gesture) so I thanked her and headed out. When I got in my car I noticed that the macarons were not what I ordered. I called and asked the owner what happened. He said, “Your white macaroons were accidentally sold to another customer by one of my employees so I switched out the white almond and coconut and gave you the yellow passion fruit instead.”I told him the situation was really frustrating and why. His response was simply “I’m sorry.”A proper response: call from the owner letting me know there has been a mishap. Maybe a “We’re so sorry, what can we do to make this up to you? We can give you 50% off? Would you like another color/flavor or would you just like to purchase the chocolate and forego the tray?” OR “We can make the other 40 white macarons and redo the tray for you and just reschedule pick up later in the day. What would you like us to do for you?”Instead the owner just said “sorry.” They called about 10minutes later and said they could drop off 20 white almond macarons later that afternoon at my work. I asked them to please call when they arrived so I could retrieve them.After some thought I called them back and requested a return/refund the tray of macarons. I would pay for the 20 white ones they were going to drop off. (The tray had frosting on it to make the macarons stick so even if I tried to replace the yellow with white, the tray would look crusted up with frosting. Not an appealing presentation for a bridal shower, so the tray is no longer usable.) The girl said “no the tray is for you to keep. We will bring 40 white almond macarons and no refund.”Okay sure. I’ll take 40 white almond macarons because that’s the closest thing we’ve come to what I originally ordered and there will be enough for the shower. At 11:45am (I was told they would be dropped off later in the afternoon) 30(not 40 as mentioned) white almond macarons were delivered to a random lady who happened to work in the same building as me. There was no phone call to let me know they were there to drop them off.This situation was poorly handled. They tried to fix it by giving extra macarons of a completely different color WITHOUT communicating first. The extra macaroons do me no good if they are not the right color and flavor. I only needed 60: 20 chocolate, 20 coconut, and 20 almond. Not 75. Not bright yellow. Just what I ordered and on a tiered tray as promised when the order was placed. That was not delivered. If I’m going to spend $150 on French macarons for a special event, I want exactly what I ordered.Do I have grace for mistakes? Absolutely. And in that I expect great communication, a lot of humility and honesty about the situation and a whole of “how can we make this up to you?!” That is excellence and that is what I expected. I haven’t even tasted the macarons yet. They may taste like heaven on earth, but honestly because of the lack of professionalism in the way I was treated today, I have decided to no longer use Le Petit Croissant for future events. They are unreliable and not worth the risk.By the way...the company’s response to my husband’s review about this situation was argumentative, defensive, and with the words “find another bakery.” Nice. That will get people coming back for sure.I hope that they can make some changes to their bakery to ensure a more successful future because what happened today was far less than success.No matter who you are...at the end of every day...customers that walk through the door of your business are the ones that pay your bills and help put food on your table. It’s important to take care of them.

We had a pretty bad experience here for breakfast/brunch this morning. First there was only a “bacon egg and cheese” savory croissant option (even though other options were available to order online). Then were told they had no ice for ice coffee. What we got was a microwaved croissant that my wife couldn’t even eat. Service was awful as well, basically waitress just dropped food off and never checked back (seemed more interested talking to other employee then helping customers). We will not be back...

Ordered a cake from them last week, so delicious, we had to go back for another one! you can tell them what flavors you would like and they make it! Incredible, worst every penny. Croissants are so flaky its unreal, yet its pure butter! the real deal.

Best new bakery in town! The croissants are soooo good. Seriously so much better than olde Europe too.

Been there a few times now, I really like their croissants! they are pretty and big and delicious. Great job on this little shop!

First-rate vibes and very attentive service. The food was fresh and delicious. Will surely recommend this restaurant to anyone. Affordable prices and large portions. Keep it up.

Absolutely Amazing!

The best croissants, line at the door to get some, the smell just drag you inside from the street, lots of little sweets and goodies.

The coffee, doughnuts and croissants are perfect, and the folks here are great.definitely a favorite spot

I come and visit here for the baggett only. They have great baggett that reminds me of local french bakery in France. Little salty side of the taste with the extra buttery flavor. Everytime i come here i realize staff is not well trained but doesnt matter to make a purchase of the baggett.

Perfect to stop in for a treat! Cant wait to take a macaron-making class!

Worst doughnut I have ever had. Macarons were bland. And the guy behind the counter seemed more interested in getting a girls number than helping customers.

Love the pastry! I have ordered cakes from there and they were amazing both in presentation and taste.

The croissants are flaky, buttery and amazing. The baguettes are crusty and beautiful and all of the chocolates are perfection. My favorite place in Greenville to buy bread. I cant wait to take one of the classes they offer! So excited!

Delicious croissants and best hot chocolate with real Belgium 🇧🇪 chocolate!!💞💞

Croissants were waaaay underbaked and doughy. Tart was tasty but very pricey.

This is hands down the BEST place I have ever been!! The food is AWESOME! The atmosphere is AWESOME! The service is AWESOME! Basically everything about this place is AWESOME! If you haven’t been by Le Petit Croissant yet you are missing out!

Best Croissants I ever had!! The real deal. They also make beautiful pastries and chocolates, too much for me at once, but definitely be back for more! I highly recommend to stop at least your senses, the best smell in town, fresh bake!

We didn’t love the atmosphere of the bakery but the croissants made up for it. They are massive and tasted great! My husband got a savory one and I got a sweet one to try both and neither disappointed!

So good and local! It was the freshest bakery I had EVER been in! The meringues were AMAZING AND SO FLUFFY!!! I would HIGHLY recommend if in the Greenville area!

Honestly don’t know why this place has such a good rating. The croissants are not the glossy, crunchy butter croissants you’d expect from a French patisserie, the outside is dry and hard, the inside tastes doughy and is not fluffy at all. Husband and I (both of us Europeans and he is French) were super disappointed. Please fix your recipe, we really would love for you to succeed!

Treated myself to a small tart ($8!) because peach and ginger in almond creme sounded so good. Only problem was it tasted like 3 slices of peaches on a crust. Almost tastless. Only disappointment in a beautiful day visiting Greenville.

Me and my husband went there today. I loved it ! the best croissants I ever had! very buttery fresh and tasty. I also tried ham and cheese crape- so good. Owner real french chef and simply nice person. Their coffee fresh and hot , pastry cool too. spend around 19$ for 2 croissants, ham and cheese crape, two coffee with unlimited refills . pretty good. also they have a lot of pretty oil paintings for sale. come and check them out! p.s. I am artist myself and also been to Paris couple times, recommend this place

I have been to this shop 4 times and each time it gets worse. I really want to help local businesses but when you are not received with a friendly personality and the selection keeps getting smaller and smaller well, its not worth returning. The food and chocolates are not worth the rudeness.

Great location. The baguette are awesome. They offer great chocolate and the owner are very friendly. I often going in to grab some stuff I need.

Such a nice place! Honesty coming back when ever I get the chance. They people there are so sweet!

The coffee and pastries were very good, and the croissant sandwich was excellent. They’re also a dog friendly restaurant, so you can bring your pets along.

Authentic croissants and friendly service, classes are fun too!

I honestly loved their food and service, fantastic area next to where I live. The workers are always very friendly. Will come back again.

Full of flavors from the front door to your mouth! legit bakery!

Terrible customer service. Not great ambiance. I highly recommend saving your money and going to the European bakery just a few stores down the street. Not at all a great experience and the customer service made it even worse.

Ive given it 3 or 4 goes and wont be back. Very, very pricey with incredibly limited selections. The best feature is the free smells walking on by.

Picked up some pastries sunday morning for breakfast and they were amazing! Normally Im a chocolate croissant girl, but the almond croissants are to die for. And their fruit tart was absolutely amazing. If youre in the area, give it a try. They also carry CBD infused chocolates that are divine!

I have been a regular client for the past year, this is a wonderful place, fresh bake goods, you have to come early to get some but this is so worst it!! Highly recommend this place.

Outstanding baked goods and sandwiches. First time ever liking croissants! Cannot wait to go back.

This bakery is the most authentic example of real French pastry in Greenville. I think its the best since Le Grand Bakery closed. Things Ive tried here include croissants, tartes, mousse, quiches, macarons, and chocolates. The croissants are authentic with a crunchy exterior, and the almond croissants are the absolute best Ive had. Supply is limited & several items sell out early in the day. Various pastries from opéra cakes to mousse or custard type items Im less familiar with cycle in and out more seasonally, (I think there have even been a few fun, unique items designed by the owners daughter) and Im hoping to find a tropezienne or a clafoutis here sometime. My favorites are the almond croissants, raspberry tartes, & dark chocolate tartes, which have gold leaf on the top. It has a smaller selection overall than the newer bakery down the street does, but in my experience, items at Le Petite Croissant have tasted fresher and higher quality in comparison. These are small batches, made daily, not shipped in from elsewhere.

Absolutely LOVE Le Petite Crescent!! Great food, Friendly workers, and my favorite place to get chocolate or macaroons!! I highly suggest going to Le Petite Crescent!

Le Petit Croissant is a great place for fresh bakery items and a latté. The owner Vincent is a native to France and is very hospitable to guests. They also offer chocolate and macaroon workshops to sign up for curosity or a nice couple date.

I’ve always enjoyed the chocolate creations and croissants. However taking the chocolate workshop was both fun and educational. Thank you Chef Caradonna

AMAZING PEOPLE!!!!! I was sent here by a worker at another bakery after the rude owner acted too good for her paying customers! UuggggThis place is awesome! I so wish they had a bigger variety because I would surely be sending everyone there!They have THE BEST macarons and meringues in Greenville!! They were even nice enough to add some things in free!! Won me over!! ❤❤❤

Excellent bakery, cafe and great coffee. Very nice owners

I will go back to try other items, but I just purchased 6 of the worst macaroons ever. First, they were tiny...a little larger than half normal size. The worst was inconsistent texture. Some were gooey unbaked and others were hard and overbaked. One of the six was perfect. For $2.95 each, Ill pass. Yes, they were room temperature.

Honestly quite sad. The pastries were subpar. The macrons were disappointing. The chocolate was good and excellent service is the only reason it doesn’t have a lower review.

World class bakery, french but world class!

Love this place, chocolates and pastries are divine, they also make fresh croissants and bread every day, first come first serve but they are so worth a early trip.

The macarons were clearly old as they were rock hard and crumbled when bitten into. The flavors were not true, most were just filled with chocolate, although they were presented as raspberry and black currant as an example. There were no feet on the biscuits and filling was minimal. The worst macarons Ive ever had. I wont be back and do not reccomend.

55$ breakfast for 2 people. Croissants were tasteless and quiches had nutmeg in them, too much breading and not enough ham and there wasent any chase in it, they mostly stuck to the foil pan it came in. It was trash. Mango drink also sucks, Dont come here, cashier is too naive, tried to start making our order before we completed it so she had to come back and grab the other quiche. Cheap atmosphere and no product in abundance

This place will not be open long for various reasons. Don’t waste your time.

We went for brunch on Sunday at 10 am. For an hour, we were the only customers there. Still, it took 20 minutes to prepare our food. The quiche was ok, but the spinach and mushroom crepe was very bland. 2 meal items and drinks totaled $23. Perhaps we should have stuck to croissants since it is in their name. I hope they do a lot of take out business because they are not getting a lot of foot traffic.

I attended the macarons class, which was very fun, and I have also had all 6 varieties of the macarons in the shop, as well as an apricot tart. All are worthy of 5 stars. Tasty, great texture, authentic French baking.

Delicious chocolate croissants, did not try their other pastries, though they looked beautiful & worth coming back to try another time.

Very rude! Not inviting at all! When you walk into a business you expect at least an acknowledgment or “welcome” but it was a very weird vibe.

Great smooth expresso and the chocolate mint croissant is amazing, great texture , crisp exterior and soft flaky inside surrounding the creamy sweet but not too sweet mint chocolate.

Spinach quiche was odd & tasteless. Pizza crust was so hard I broke my bridge. Chocolate croissant was fair at best.

Barista served a single shot drink and charged me for a double. Didnt clean the portafilter before brewing my drink, so the stale oils mixed in the shot. Didnt seem to care when I mentioned it. Using a cheaper espresso grinder than I have at home, not up to standards for most coffee shops. I dont know how pastries are there, but its not a good place for coffee.

Great pastries and chocolates - very friendly staff. Highly recommended!

Amazing handmade croissants, caramels and chocolates. Love this patisserie!

Great food fair prices and a very quiet calm atmosphere
