best vegan pastries in the city

as far as classic, artisanal pastries go, they cant be beat in philly. add on their bagels with vegan cream cheese (plus related bagel accoutrements), and youve got a solid breakfast spot.

Best Bagels & More

Easily these are the best bagels in Philly, I buy them by the dozen, and when I’m not doing that, I’m getting one slathered with tofutti and capers to -go. Don’t sleep on their vegan pastries (or their sandwich loaves, but don’t let that secret out!). They are very sensitive to vegan preferences and often support vegan businesses themselves! The croissants are very flaky; I grew up eating a richer, denser croissant which is probably wrong but I can’t help it, now that’s what I prefer. But it’s not like anyone else in Philly is making even vegan croissants, (and if they are, they suck) so I will still go for a KB croissant when the mood strikes 🥐

Best Croissants!

Such a cute spot with high-quality products! I fell in absolute love with the croissant I got and can not wait to go back and try their other breads and pastries!

Pros: nice vibe

Great spot

Not from the area, popped in for a coffee and had a salt bagel with vegan cream cheese and jam on it which sounded semi crazy to me but was fantastic as was the coffee and both of the baristas were super friendly as well!

Pros: Friendly staff, Great food

The best vegan croissants I've ever eaten

It's not even close. You could have told me were tradition butter croissants, and I would have believed you. They shatter. They're flaky. It's vegan magic. The case isn't labeled, so I asked if they had any vegan ones that day. They told me the top two shelves (out of three) are always vegan. TWO OUT OF THREE. I tried one traditional and one pain au chocolat. You can also get an oat milk latte.

Pros: Best croissants ever, Oat milk latte

best croissants on earth.

the vegan pastries are the best i've ever had, no question. my roommate is an omnivore and he always gets the vegan croissants over the standard ones, thats how good they are. best to go earlier in the day when everything's fresh. sometimes they sell out of everything and have to close early

Pros: delicious pastries, bagels, etc. wonderful staff

Cons: sometimes it gets SO busy. (not much of a con)
