Incredible Pateries

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.

The best vegan bakery

Just so so yummy. I’ve never had anything bad from here, it’s all so good. Love love love. The ham and cheese croissants are incredible and the hazelnut croissants 🤤

Lovely sweets

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!

Very good

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

Delicious vegan pastries

Everything is vegan and everything is delicious. My favorites are the praline croissant and the tiramisu. So luxe and I'm so grateful to eat these in Auckland rather than having to go to France!!

Pros: Everything is vegan, Tastes amazing, Variety

This bakery is heaven sent! The most perfect croissants, breads, and coffee. Everything is vegan and it could not be more delicious. I have been dreaming about the food ever since we went. You cannot go wrong with anything you order here but highly recommend the praline croissant!

Pros: Delicious, Varied, Beautiful

Cons: Limited seating, Limited days of operation

Amazing French pastries and phenomenal coffee

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!

Pros: Everything

STUNNINGLY GOOD - make it a priority

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.
Went 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

Probably the first completely vegan patisserie we have ever been to - and it was definitely worth it!
We 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

Finally a fully vegan French Patisserie in our little Auckland! Where do I begin..
Their 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.

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.

The 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

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.

Pros: Absolutely delicious, Savory and sweet options, Best croissants in town

Cons: Pricey, but worth it

Pastry fix 🤤🤤🤤

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 💯

Pros: All vegan
