SACRÉ SUCRÉ
933 Fell St, Baltimore, MD
Crema's Take
“This French patisserie in Baltimore is a serious destination for pastry lovers, with reviewers calling it among the best in America—each croissant and dessert crafted with the kind of precision and creativity you'd find in a fine dining kitchen. Beyond the Instagram-worthy pastries, it's a genuinely welcoming spot with excellent coffee and tea options (try the hojicha latte, though you might ask for it less sweet) that makes it perfect for lingering with friends or treating yourself to something special. The prices reflect the quality and care poured into every item, and the dine-in menu offers more affordable options if you want a full meal alongside that perfect bite.”

Delicious high-end pastries and croissants, the kind you would expect from a fine dining establishment. A combination of techniques, textures, and complex flavors. Amazing ambience and location. Friendly service. The lattes and specialty drinks could be improved.
This is one of the best patisseries in America, if not the world. The care and passion put into every bite is clear, but it is also matched with creativity and customer service. I’ve taken friends, family, business partners, etc and there is always something to impress and delight every palete. If you are a dough nerd, go for the lamination and the weekend bread - both are technically perfect and full of flavor. If you’re a coffee and tea fan, try the lattes. They introduce creative flavors with full respect to the beans/leaves, with a focus on flavor over sugar (yay!). And if you’re a natural wine lover, you have a beautiful environment to enjoy carefully curated sips. I fully expect this spot to become a national treasure, so get your macarons and your saffron mochas before the rest of the world clues in on this perfect gem in Baltimore.
Update_ end of October 2025 Even though my friend’s bringing a cake for my birthday later, I couldn’t skip my favorite one. I even worked out early to earn it (and took a sugar blocker 🤣) Since I’ve quit coffee, I went with matcha. It was so good but cooled off way too fast thanks to the AC. I hesitated but asked if they could warm it up in the microwave (felt like a diva for a sec), and the stylish, manager-looking guy made it perfectly hot again. Everyone here is always so kind. The cake was rich but not too sweet, just heaven🍑🫧💫. Their pain au chocolat also hits that dark, bittersweet spot. I don’t usually crave sweets, but I grabbed a vanilla bean macaron to finish my leftover matcha. It melted in my mouth. Tried to eat slowly and elegantly… but it disappeared way too fast. Even more smiles:))) while I was writing this, another handsome staff came by and patiently explained the sparkling water station.🫶🏼 / Update Oct 7, 2025 Went there early this morning (around 7:30) to get a birthday cake for my friend, only to find out they don’t have cakes on Mondays and Tuesdays. I was sad, but the staff was incredibly kind. He picked the prettiest pastries for me, repacked them beautifully in a box, and even handwrote “Happy Birthday :-)” on a little card, saying “It’s just one day a year!” 🥹 I was so touched, and my friend loved it too. Thank you, Sacré Sucré. You made my day again🫶🏼 And of course, I got one for myself too. As always, their croissant was also legendary. The layers, the texture, even the crispy, flaky ends were perfect. I actually cut through it slowly just to savor every slice of it. Look at those little layers at the end, just adorable!😍 / One of my favorite spots. Beautiful space, amazing cakes, and the croissant is perfect. Always puts me in a good mood. / Cappuccino with lovely “4 July” latte art— made my morning! Looked beautiful, tasted even better. The croissant was perfectly flaky.🥐☕️
I love this bakery shop bc they have pastries dessert and a dine in menu. Everything is made fresh. Pastries and dessert are pricey but dine in menu have a good price to it. One issue with this store is the checkout system, you order item from three categories as the line moving forward and at the end the cashier will handle all the items and put those into checkout. First time there they didn’t put my sourdough into checkout and second time they didn’t give me my baguette after checkout had to drive back for it. One thing that really needs improvement.
The presentation on the bakery items were top tier and they tasted good as well. The service was great. They had a variety of teas and coffees. I got the hojicha latte which tasted too sweet for me but my husband enjoyed it. I liked that most of their sandwiches were on sourdough bread. They also sell their sourdough and baguettes. Definitely a must try if you’re in this area. The parking can be difficult on a Saturday since the farmers market is going on.
