The Turkey Havarti Croissant was one of the best sandwiches I have ever have. The ingredients, the warm (cheese)/cold (jam) and the seasoning all paired so well together. No notes, perfection. Not to mention the other croissants and coffee was fantastic as well. Service was amazing. 11/10 place.
My Wife and I ride our bicycles, everywhere, to try new places for special flavors. We stopped in at The Flying Roadrunner, on a Sunday morning, and WOW ! we're we glad. I have to give them the award for Best Croissant in the State of New Mexico. We have tried places all over the State, but The Flying Roadrunner is the BEST. Even better than the French bakery on the harbor in South Carolina ( which has been unrivaled for the past 8 years until now.) Now we don't have to travel to South Carolina. Also, Le Bakery, in Albuquerque, is absolutely superbe.
This is definitely one of the best little gems in old town. Today I went in for a croissant but also got the Turkey harvarti cheese sandwich to have for lunch later and it was pure magic. It was SO delicious & had the right ratio of flavors. My photo does not do it justice but just know it was AMAZING. Hanging out with the turkey & cheese was some arugula or dark greens with maybe a Dijon mustard of some sort. But then there was a sweet jam inside. Mmmm!! Also, this place has the BEST croissants in New Mexico. Just make sure you go when they are open (check the hours).
Stopped in while exploring Old Town and was very impressed. The owner was so friendly and helpful. The coffee was delicious and the croissant a were some of the best I have ever tried. Highly recommend trying the turkey + havarti croissant. The preserves on it just make unique and delicious.
A lovely little spot in Old Town! I got an almond croissant and a matcha latte. That almond croissant was EXCELLENT! Crispy outside, fluffy layers, and an absolutely delicious almond cream. I was so happy and satisfied. It's lacking a bit in seating, but if the weather is good, I'm sure it's nice to find a spot to sit outside in Old Town.
