Nouvé Bakery

"Their pastries are incredible. I cannot believe a bakery this good opened up in Lexington Center. I visited at least 3 times in one week. My favorite so far is the blood orange yuzu cream danish. Weekends only. Go early in the day!"

"Small bakery place to pick up your favorite pastries/croissant! You need to come here early to see the variety, preferably by 9am! I once came by at noon and left only 1-2 types of croissants to choose from. They are freshly baked, very buttery and delicious! But prices are also high! No seats here so can only come for a quick visit/ take out!"

"If you love freshly baked flaky , buttery delicious croissants, this is it! They have all kinds of pastries with awesome fillings! The coffee is great too! Just make sure to get there a little early! They sell out most of the time!"

"New French bakery in Lexington offering incredible savory croissants and escargots with a Japanese twist. Took a visit this past Sunday to see what all the hype is about. Arriving five minutes before opening, I was fortunate to get in as soon as they unlocked the doors. The line quickly grew, but the wait time didn't seem to exceed 15 minutes. However, one downside of arriving early was that some pastry options were not yet available as they were still setting up the display. I usually skip the Pain aux Raisins (or Escargots) at French bakeries, but Nouve's intriguing flavor varieties—Miso Scallion and Pistachio—caught my eye, and I decided to try both. They made me completely reevaluate my preference for Escargots. Both were incredible, but the Miso Scallion version blew me away. Although it lacked the "crunch" found in croissants, its soft yet chewy Japanese milk bread interior paired divinely with the umami-rich miso scallion glaze. Another one of my favorites was the Sausage Croissant. Much like the Miso Escargot, it featured a good blend of sweet and savory flavors, a common trait in Asian pastries. However, some of their other croissant varieties, such as the Coffee Croissant, didn’t quite hit the mark for me. Among the savory French pastries I've tried in the Greater Boston Area, Nouve Bakery stands out as the best. While their selection isn't vast, the quality of their pastries is exceptional—so much so that I'm willing to drive an hour just to get them again.Highly recommend giving them a try if you’re into savory pastries."
