Tres bonnes viennoiseries

What a great find this place was. the atmosphere here is so cute. My husband had a breakfast butty, basically a breakfast sandwich on a square croissant with a side of fresh fruit and a cappuccino, he loved it. I ordered a Scrappy French Toast with a blueberry compote and Chantilly Cream, it was sooooo good, also served with a side of fresh fruit. I would highly recommend this place

The best breakfast in Truro - and I think I can say, after extensive artery clogging research, the best croissants in Nova Scotia. Local ingredients, everything fresh and well prepared.

Cute little Bakery in Truro with Irish music playing in the background. The cinnamon twist was so crisp and flavorful. Very nice girls serving.

We found this great local gem when searching for a lunch spot on the way back from the Cape Breton highlands. Far enough from the highway not to be lost in the fog of franchised restaurants and right across the road from the train station. Smaller menu with lovely croissant sandwiches and other baked goods. Great coffee and tea and they also sell homemade bread. Super clean washroom. Recommended if you were in the area.

The yummiest baked goods, so lucky to have this spot in Truro! We love their croissants, and will often buy their day olds treats and breads which hold up great retoasted or frozen. Front staff are always kind 🙂

So here's my thing, this would be 5 stars if it wasn't so mismanaged. In the time I was there I saw take out orders brought back due to mistakes, mistakes on Food coming out, and atleast 2 people leave give up after waiting in like for 10-15 minutes to name a few things.

Food was great but it's unbelievably slow but not for your standard busy reasons. First of all if you're just getting a pastry or coming in for breakfast it's all one line, they don't have someone taking orders at tables when they could. I've been in to both eat breakfast and just grab a pastry, both times it took forever. My advice, as there were 3 of you, tell people to sit and have one person taking orders, running food, cleaning tables all that stuff, have one person cooking and have one person working cash/helping where needed when cleared out.

Anyways it has potential to be amazing but holy cow somebody with some restaurant management type experience just needs to right the ship a bit and you'll get way more people through.
