I went to LA from Northern México last week, and this petit and magnifique place, was the best place I ever been in a while in LA, simply delicious, and perfect. I hope to go back soon.
Hands down best croissants in LA!
I had bookmarked La Chouquette for a long time (I have quite a thing for boulangeries..), and I finally stopped by today while I was in the area. I absolutely loved it! The staff was so pleasant and welcoming, and all the pastries looked absolutely divine. I loved hearing everyone speak French—it made the whole experience feel so authentically French. I love how he folded and twisted my paper bag, it was so cute.

LA Chouquette is a delightful French bakery that offers a variety of pastries, croissants, and desserts. Customers have praised the flaky and buttery croissants, including the unique Crookie, a pastry topped with a gooey cookie. The ham and cheese croissant is a favorite, and the chocolate almond croissant has an insanely light texture that many enjoy. The classic plain croissant is called the best croissant in LA by one customer, who said it is light, flaky, and has the perfect texture. The bakery also features delicious raspberry and raisin swirls, as well as a Nutella-filled pastry that customers have called to die for.
The staff are known for being friendly, pleasant, and welcoming, creating an inviting atmosphere in this colorful shop. Guests enjoy hearing French spoken throughout the shop, which makes the experience feel authentically French. Chefs can be seen making pastries by hand from scratch in the back. One customer appreciated the light and nutty hazelnut praline eclair, which is also a great option for those who are gluten-free. While some items, such as the almond croissant, may need a little work, the overall experience is worth it. The shop has a few indoor tables and outdoor sidewalk seating on Melrose, where guests can enjoy pastries and coffee. Dogs on leashes are welcome and often receive a small treat. LA Chouquette is a recommended spot for those who enjoy French pastries, especially for a nice Sunday treat or a mid-week bonus. It's best to arrive early in the morning to ensure a good selection before items sell out.
