Why Choose Lune Croissanterie?

About Lune Croissanterie
Lune Croissanterie on Lonsdale Street is a bakery in Melbourne built around one thing: croissants. They call themselves an institution dedicated to the craft, and the precision shows in the layers. Locals describe the plain croissant as flaky and buttery, and the almond croissant comes up as a favourite, rich and dense enough to feel like a meal. A matcha option and a spicy chicken pastry get a mention, along with savoury offerings like a Vegemite scroll with a salty, umami edge.
This is the larger Lonsdale Street space, and people like how much room there is compared with the older branches. It's wheelchair and pram friendly, with an accessible entrance and toilet, and there's seating if you want to stay. You can dine in or take your pastries away. Coffee is on the menu, and opinions on it run from solid to just average, so it's the pastries you'd go for. Cards and tap-to-pay are accepted.
Expect a queue, especially early and on weekends. We've heard it tends to move along, and one person who came back around midday walked straight in. Pastries can sell out as the day goes on, and one local found the plain croissants weren't out until a little after opening, so earlier isn't always better for every pastry. The staff come across as friendly, and the place is kept clean. One visitor mentioned staff moving slowly at peak times, and seating is limited, but the croissants draw a steady crowd. One visitor kept leftovers for the next morning and said they still tasted great.
It's open daily, with a slightly later start on weekends, so check the hours before you head in.
