Third Cliff Bakery

So yummy! Lots of vegan options - I got the street corn croissant and the (non-vegan) brown butter chocolate chip cookie. If you like your CCCs soft and sweet, you’ll like this one, not so much chewy and crispy. I went around noon on a Saturday and there was only one person ahead of me in line, nothing was sold out, and it was easy to find a place to sit.

There’s usually a line to order but it is worth! The orange latte is a must order and so is the kimchi and cheese croissant. The guava and cream croissant was also delicious! Will need to come back to try other pastries and the focaccia (after noontime)!

I’m not vegan, but I still thought the pastries were excellent. Highly recommend the Orange Cardamom bun — they don’t skimp on the cardamom. The street corn croissant was also quite good. I thought the kimchi cheddar croissant was only okay (didn’t get much kimchi flavor), but it was still an interesting combination worth trying. Super inventive pastries; definitely come by if you’re vegan!

Amazing locally owned coffee shop in Jamaica Plain. The lemonade is delightfully tart. Coffee is yummy. Friendly, inclusive vibe with good service and a diverse clientele.

I've been on a bakery rampage lately, and Third Cliff Bakery was next on my list. I always go at opening, and this was the first time a bakery had a line before doors even opened, which surprised me. Doors opened right at 8 AM, and the overall wait wasn't too bad (~10 minutes). There is timed street parking out front, and the inside has a few tables with high ceilings and a nice mural. I ordered a few items to share: - Kimchi & Cheddar Croissant: I was most excited about this because it was a unique flavor, but the inside didn't actually have that much kimchi. It wasn't bad, though--just didn't wow me as much as I wanted it to. - Buttermilk Family Croissant: This croissant was also just okay. Very flaky. - Pain au Chocolat: I liked this one. Can never go wrong with chocolate. - Orange Car
