Great french Patisserie - Edit
My favorite are the simple plain croissant and pain au chocolat. Having grown up in France feels just like the original.

Incredible Pateries - Edit
Amazing how these plant based pastries and cakes are true to their original recipe taste but without animal ingredients or suffering. Not cheap but worth due to taste, ethics and level of choice. Thanks for providing such outstanding french style plant patisserie options.

Lovely sweets - Edit
We came nearly too late, so there were a lot of pastries sold out. But all of what we've got was really tasty! The pain au chocolate was perfect!

The feta croissant sandwich was very good. Everything in the case looked great. It's a pretty small location with only tables outside for seating

Amazing French pastries and phenomenal coffee - Edit
Hands down the best thing I've eaten in new zealand. Subtle vegan signage and unreal pastries, I'm guessing a lot of people don't realise that they're having vegan food the first time. Great coffee as well. I wish I could come here every day!

STUNNINGLY GOOD - make it a priority - Edit
LOVE LOVE LOVE this place. The pastries are so fresh, crispy, and delicious, and the perfect level of sweetness. Was super impressed to learn the baker/owner is self taught! This is my top 2 of bakeries.
Read moreWent here 3 days in a row, and still wish it was open more days. I tried a huge variety of things, and was torn between trying new things and buying stuff I had already tried and loved.
- Strawberry cream croissant: crispy, flaky, SO GOOD, great strawberries and cream
- Cheese garlic twists: DELICIOUS, crispy, flaky
- Salted caramel chocolate: DELICIOUS, chewy caramel peanut type base, very CRISPY pastry case, just absolute perfection, didn't taste of salted caramel luckily for me, chocolate cream tasted like dark chocolate, not too sweet
- Mille Feuille: delicious crispy layers, nice cream, ok custard, perfect level sweetness
- Cinnamon roll: delicious, soft, not too doughy, not too sweet, perfect
- Ham cheese lettuce croissant: DELICIOUS
- Raisin pastry swirl: airy, VERY good
- Pain au chocolat: crispy, flaky, great darkish chocolate
- Plain croissant: very good, crispy, no strong oily aftertaste, could be more layers I guess
- Almond croissant: crispy, not too sweet
- Chocolate cookie: delicious, chewy, not too sweet
- Raspberry danish: flaky, crunchy, very good, thick custard/cream was very good
- Lemon meringue: very crispy thin pastry case, nice tart lemon, thick marshmallow texture (but not much taste)
- Strawberry tart: nice, ok custard, crispy pastry
- Raspberry danish/cruffin type thing: yumm, cream filled
- Eggplant semi dried tomato brioche: very soft, doughy, relish/sauerkraut filling
- Sausage croissant: ok
Pros: huge range of delicious pastries, so fresh, crispy, and not overly sweet, ham cheese lettuce croissant
Cons: would love more seating, would love it to be more open more days

Awesome croissants - Edit
Probably the first completely vegan patisserie we have ever been to - and it was definitely worth it!
Read moreWe have been there multiple times in the past week while exploring Auckland and grabbed us some delicious treats. They have a good selection of different versions of croissants, other sweets as well as some savory options. Our favorites are the biscoff croissant and the croissant pudding!
Pros: Completely vegan , Great options

Happy Cries - Edit
Finally a fully vegan French Patisserie in our little Auckland! Where do I begin..
Read moreTheir products are just simply top of the top quality and the customer service is just as exceptional. Auckland have other vegan/vegan option pastry places, but once you give these guys a try, you will never go back. You can clearly taste the quality difference and the owners take utmost pride in producing the highest possible pastry. I am very happy these guys are doing very well and they truly deserve it!
Pros: All Vegan, Excellent Coffee & Customer Service, Very fresh and quality pastries
Cons: Only 3 tables outside due to space, but no problem

Best vegan pastries. - Edit
Drove out 30mins just to try out this place. Was surprised to see it located just a couple stores away from Tart, another vegan bakery. I brought the (non-vegan) family with me, and we bought a few stuff from both places.
Read moreThe pastries from Maison Des Lys is unmatched by any pastries I’ve had anywhere else, vegan or not. I bought 4 things for myself, and kids ate 3 of them (after eating their own food) and only left the last thing (a vegan savory pastry with mince, cheese, and some sort of hot sauce) because I told them they had to at least leave me something. This place is amazing.
Pros: All vegan. , Pastries are crispy and flaky and buttery amazing, Everything.
Cons: Only open Fri-Sun from morning to noon-ish.

The bakery of my dreams - Edit
Ever since I became vegan and could no longer have the amazing croissants I used to have on a regular basis, I've been chasing after that same high for years and years. Now I've finally found what I'm looking for - a croissant arguably in league with the best I've ever had (no I don't say that to all the croissants). I got the ham and cheese option, which was divine, and will definitely be back for more. It is on the pricey side but it's clearly made with love, and that's priceless.
Read morePros: Absolutely delicious, Savory and sweet options, Best croissants in town
Cons: Pricey, but worth it

Pastry fix 🤤🤤🤤 - Edit
A nice range of pastries on offer, with coffee at hand to go with your pain au chocolat or a ham & cheese croissant! All things vegan, awesome staff, nice little set up with outdoor seating. Located in the heart of Grey Lynn township. If you’re after a pastry fix and wanting to support a small local business, I’d highly recommend dropping into Mason De Lys Pastisserie 💯
