Decent drip coffee, good to above average specialty coffee, croissants are very inauthentic and I’d avoid ordering one unless you’re in the mood for a loaf of bread. If you’ve been to authentic French bakeries you’ll be disappointed in what you receive.
Summary- go for the coffee, don’t order food.
Recommended by a local. The prosciutto and provolone was absolutely delicious. A bit more dense than the typical authentic french style croissant but delicious nonetheless. Service was also fantastic - definitely will be back the next time I'm in Halifax
I went to college in Halifax 8 years ago and I still dream of the croissants today 😋 I went to the shop by the ferry terminal on the Halifax side (which appears to be gone now unfortunately). They were better then the ones I've had in France by FAR! I live in Toronto now and all the croissants here
We stopped by Two If By Sea Cafe early morning to grab some coffees and croissants.
The croissants were actually good and a decent portion size and the coffees hit the spot.
A local recommended this spot for croissants but we were quite disappointed. Croissants are supposed to be light and buttery and melt in your mouth but these were heavy and dense and chewy (as others had noted).

Another famous Dartmouth institution in an absolutely lovely spot. Very few places I actively recommend for travellers or visitors as a "must go," but TIBS is one.
It's been a long time since I've been there, quite a few years, since the "unpleasantness" that need not be mentioned, but this is bett
Fantastic coffee, but the croissants are the BEST. Not for the faint of heart, they're a buttery, flaky, belly-full of goodness with a new flavor every week. Worth the trip every time.
Croissants are tough on the outside and rubbery uncooked dough inside. The only type of coffee they have is medium roast and the self serve milk station doesn't even have stir sticks. Whoever rated this as 5 stars is a jerk. What a dismal experience. Don't eat the food, the coffee is hot though.
