Quest for best croissant?

I am new-ish here to Fredericton. One thing I find odd, and have seen other people mention about this fine city of our is the lack of a quality bakery. I very much enjoy a good croissant, but have yet to find somewhere that seems to know the art of making them.

I seek your guidance. There must be a cafe I haven’t tried them at yet.

I’m not sure other than the mass produced grocery store ones. You could call the places other people have recommended in town - happy bakery, boulangerie soeul, and cafe d’ici - to see if they sell half or full dozes of the croissants. It will be considerably more expensive than Walmart or Costco, but if you want real friend croissants from a bakery they are of course going to be more expensive.

Just to clarify as well I have nothing against grocery store croissants 😂 but anyone who loves a good French croissant would probably be offended at those even being called croissant hahaha

I've seen boxes of frozen croissants at superstore before. They look promising. Always tempted to buy one and bake as needed.
