Colette Bakery 517 Columbus Avenue, Boston, MA 02118

"The moment I stepped inside, I was welcomed by a cozy and charming ambiance. The sitting area is slightly small but lovely! It’s the perfect spot to relax and enjoy your treats with a cup of coffee. The variety of baked goods available was impressive. I decided to try their pain au chocolate, it was exquisite – perfectly golden and flaky. Also, the staff was incredibly friendly and attentive. In summary, the attention to detail in both the food and the environment made the experience truly pleasant."

"We always have Paris. And some of us are lucky to have Colette. The best croissant in Boston. Fluffy on the inside, crispy on the outside. And a sandwich and a (lemon) Travel Cake for later. Don’t think the cake will make it to its destination though…."

"Food: Pain au chocolat was flaky but bit bland. Two strings of chocolate inside but didn’t have much flavor that covers the whole pastry. Overall it was good. Eclair had a chocolate cream that tasted not too sweet which I preferred. Service: very friendly and gave great recommendations Atmosphere: physically small, not many seats but friendly atmosphere"

"We are so glad to welcome Colette in the neighborhood! Went for their first opening day and everything was marvelous. They’ve changed the layout from the previous bakery which makes the flow much better and there’s more seats for patrons. Varied selection of French baked goods: pastries,baked breads, croissants (obvi), tartes, etc as well as quiche and lunch sandwiches. They also have a good coffee, espresso and tea selection. Excited they chose this location to expand off their original Medford location"
