🥐 Pistachio Croissant (Second Batch @ 12:45pm Saturday): Finally got my hands on it! Topped generously with crushed pistachios — visually satisfying. But I personally prefer the one from Ottawa where the filling is denser, almost like a soft mung bean cake — smooth and rich. Emmer’s version had less filling than expected.

🌰 Almond Croissant – Pretty standard. Might’ve been a bit cold, so it didn’t wow me. Just okay.

🍯 Cinnamon Morning Bun – Quite sweet, but nothing surprising. A bit underwhelming overall.

✨ If you’re going, the pistachio croissant is still worth chasing! Just make sure to check what time the second batch comes out.

I had a very delicious breakfast. I recommend it.

Would absolutely recommend this place - they have some really delicious food and great selection. I do find a lot of the food super rich/heavy though - like the croissants are amazing but they are like dripping with butter I’ve ever had, sometimes I feel sick after lol. Same goes with a lot of their dishes. Still keep going back, just gotta be aware not to overdo it :)

Absolutely phenomenal! I have to admit that these are some of the best pastries I’ve ever had in my lifetime. The blueberry cream danish was heavenly, the sausage rolls were delicious and the perfect size, and the ham and leek quiche was so buttery and delicious. Our group would have continued to order more items from the menu if we had the stomach room for it. Flat whites were a perfect addition to the pastries. The covered patio outside was so lovely and relaxing. We will definitely be back! Highly recommend- get here early.. you won’t regret it. 🥰

My friends and I sampled a variety of the pastries and literally all of them were amazing. The blueberry pastry was absolutely divine, the butter croissant was out of this world, and my boyfriend went back for a second sausage roll because he loved it so much. The espresso was perfectly pulled and smooth. We sat on the patio with our pastries and the vibe was so relaxing. Highly highly recommend.

Food is good but the service is slow and spacey a little too cool for school.Often have 2 different prices posted but will charge you the higher one always (for example their cold brew)

A 10/10 experience. Their croissant is to die for, and their patio space is great when the weather is warm! In the winter it is best for takeaway.

The pistachio croissants from Emmer are a Toronto must-try. Despite its heavier price tag, once this pastry is in your hands you can immediately feel its heft, completely encrusted with a nutty coating of roasted pistachios that provides a delightful crunch that contrasts the surprisingly crisp flaky texture of the croissant. Despite being soaked with a sweet pistachio syrup practically oozing out with every bite, the double bake allows for that indulgent crispy texture. You shouldn't overlook their butter croissants and caneles, as well as anything else they offer.

Came at 9am and got a pistachio croissant, so worth the hype! You will regret not getting two like I did. I also got the peanut butter miso cookie which was like a 7/10. Wish it was warm since they had just opened
