Home Croissanterie is a cafe in Balmain with outdoor seating. It hasn't yet been confirmed as dog-friendly, so it's best to check with the venue before visiting.
This lovely little cafe specialises in pastries and my goodness they do it well. The sea salt potato croissant is perfectly flaky and unlike many currently popular pastries is not overly greasy. Just the right amount of butteriness without seeming like it’s been fried. The tarte tatin is glorious. Possible the best I’ve had outside France. The staff are friendly and there is limited outdoor seating. In a suburb that seems to have a new bakery/cafe every month this is a great addition.
I had dreamed of coming here after seeing a couple vlogs. The overall vibe is so chill, homey, yet classically sophisticated. The drink menu, especially the speciality drinks. Wow, you need to try the Mont Blanc, such a perfect medley of flavours. I had every intention of trying almost every available pastry on my visit, as I am quite far from home (Auckland, New Zealand). I couldn't believe I was finally here, taking in the scenery and drooling over said pastries. If I could write a love letter to pastries, Home Croissanterie would be the one. You can tell the love and hard work that has gone into these creations; infact I would say Ben must be a perfectionist through and through. On that note: I fell in love with every single pastry I tried, the flavours and the textures, all perfectly crafted!
Small cafe but delicious pastries!! We got the pain au chocolate, croissant and strawberry and cream twist. The pastry was so buttery! My husband had the montblanc which he said was very good, and I had an iced matcha which was one of the better matchas I've had. Would definitely recommend!
We have been to Home Croissanterie a few times now and each time has been a great experience. Each time too we have tried a new croissant and each time it was a super delicious experience. Their signature is potato and sea salt. Funky combo but it really works. It's buttery with a savoury kick, Each of the croissants are just perfect, intricate and of course delicious. Coffee is on point and the atmostphere is casual and relaxed. If you do come later on in the day some of their croissants may have sold out especially on the weekend. One of the best croissant experiences in Sydney!
Beautiful looking pastries and a great atmosphere overall. The presentation is spot on, but flavour-wise they were a bit too oily for my taste and landed around average that’s just my personal preference. That said, the staff were genuinely friendly and welcoming, which made the experience enjoyable. Definitely worth coming down and trying it for yourself to see what you think.
