Twisted Croissant & Patisserie
1625 SE Bybee Blvd, Portland, OR
Crema's Take
“This minimalist Portland gem has earned its stellar reputation not just for show-stopping pastries like their legendary cherry and chocolate croissant, but for a thoughtful approach to both coffee and hospitality that keeps locals returning daily. Whether you're grabbing a quick coffee before work or settling in for a slow afternoon, the baristas here genuinely engage with requests—they'll craft something unexpectedly creative if you let them, proving they care more about your perfect cup than the standard menu. The clean, uncluttered space becomes your backdrop for discovering why people drive an hour out of their way for what many describe as some of the best food and coffee they've encountered anywhere.”
What to expect
Specialty coffee, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit, quick-grab spot, good for meetings. Pastries on the menu.
