In Search Of The Best Croissants In Hyderabad? Check Out These Top 6 Places!
Feranoz
A cute patisserie tucked away in the by lanes of Banjara Hills, Feranoz is a hit for all things dessert, including croissants. Seat yourself amidst the chic ambience and prepare yourself for la doux (that's sweet in French) treat. They have a separate section for croissants, and you need to take your time to choose one. They have the classic butter croissant, chocolate croissant (their bestseller), Nutella knot, almond croissant (our personal favourite), baklava croissant and cinnamon roll. A fresh batch is made every day, so when you go, you know it's fresh off the oven.
Price: INR 125 onwards
Cafe Eclat
A hidden gem in Gachibowli, we head to Cafe Eclat for two things: some quiet time and delicious croissants made with artisanal ingredients. The ambience is quite basic, it's no nonsense, but their croissant options are top-notch! They have five flavours - butter, almond, pain au chocolate, feta cheese, tomato and cheddar and pain au chocolate et hazelnut (that's basically chocolate and hazelnut). We suggest you ditch the obvious ones and try their feta cheese croissant. It's a variety less found in the city, and it's ah-ma-zing!
Price: INR 130 onwards
Ci Gusta!
How does custard croissant sound? Yum? Then get yourself one or two at Ci Gusta. It's stuffed with custard that's just the right amount of sweet and doesn't dilute the taste of the crunchy dough. It is served warm, so prepare for a little spill that you'll have to lick away. They also have butter, almond, and hazelnut rocher croissants that are equally good.
Price: INR 169 onwards
45th Avenue
If you're craving a savoury option then head straight to 45th Avenue's croissant bar. They have a sandwich croissant, which is actually pretty great. It's the Caprese Croissant with tomato, mozzarella and pesto filling, creamy cheese croissant with garlic, onion and lots of cheddar, chicken croissant with mayo, chicken, tomato and onion and a simple egg and mustard one.
Price: INR 330 onwards
Feu
We heart the chocolate rocher croissant at Feu; it's always a must-order at our table. It has a thick chocolate filling with crispy rocher bits and is sinfully good in every bite. If you've never been to Feu, it's a dessert bar that stands true to its name. When it comes to croissants, they have five to six flavours.
Price: INR 150 onwards
Harley's Fine Baking
If you appreciate a good Belgian chocolate dessert, we won't gatekeep the Belgian chocolate croissant at Harley's. It's crunchy, chewy, and chocolatey, just the right amount. When eaten piping hot, it instantly turns into hot chocolate in your mouth, and we're all game for the ooye-gooyeness. It's not easy to get this one too, because it sells like hot cakes!
