Leo’s Bread

Charming bakery tucked near the intersection of esplanade and broad. The breads are full of flavor and carry all the signs of high-quality, small batch loaves - pleasant air pockets, perfect spring. The croissants are flaky and properly buttery-moist, and exhibit fine artisanal work in the layers; there are also a variety of croissant types - from plain, to chocolate, pecan, apple, and other seasonal delights (like pumpkin, goat cheese and honey this morning). There are also several other pastries that I look forward to trying soon!It's the kind of bakery that you may go in for just a croissant, and you leave very satisfied and carrying a couple loaves to slice and enjoy at home.

This place had such delicious baked goods and it was located in such a cute neighborhood and part of town I've never been to! Almost everything inside the bakery looked so delicious and it was so hard to choose something to eat because everything looked so good, but that mean's I've got to come back again in the future. They had really cool speciality croissants and I went with the blueberry jam with candied orange and mint and it was great and so much flavor. I also grabbed one of their seasonal speciality sandwiches for lunch (mine had eggplant, spicy mayo sauce, and leafy greens all on sour dough) and it so fulfilling and delicious. Can't wait to stop by again to try other things one day soon!

I'm a sucker for bakeries, especially if they make their own bagels. I tried the loaded sesame bagel & lox, bagel breakfast sandwich and a croissant. The bagel and lox was nicely prepared and fresh, but a little skimpy on the actual lox. Bagel sandwich was decent, but didn't love the texture of the egg. The croissant was nice and flaky. I would definitely recommend this place to those who enjoy fresh baked breads.

Food was AMAZING. Bagel had PLENTY of cream cheese and was slightly burnt (in a good way) and very crispy but still soft. Everyone working here was super sweet and helpful.The focaccia is a lil more firm than most I've had, so if you're looking for a super soft one be warned this isn't it. It is still amazing and tasty, so don't hesitate.The croissant breakfast sandwich (custom made) was fantastic as well. My Ollady had the ham n cheese croissant and she said it was amazing.It's a very simple setup inside but it's not too loud and it's overall pretty chill. This was one of my absolute favorite places while visiting, so don't miss it!!!

Great croissants and bread, worth the price. Creative selection of breakfast items as well. Support your neighborhood baker.

Excellent breads and pastries. From the many varieties of croissants to the polenta chocolate chip cookies - delicious!

Without a doubt the BEST bagel I've ever had (and I've had lots!). So fresh and yummy! Such a cute place with lots of yummy options! Coffee was good too!!

Adorable little spot we love to walk too! Amazing croissants and drinks! I had the ham and cheese and my wife had chocolate. They're flaky, packed full of filling and SO BUTTERY! Highly recommend! You can also find them at the Crescent City Farmers Markets.

Probably best chocolate croissant I've eaten in the States. Lox bagel was very good with nice fresh toppings. Could put a little more lox for the $12.50 sticker price. Presentation was lovely though. Counter staff was a bit dry for early morning, but maybe like me they hadn't had their coffee yet. Overall nice experience. Will come back to try breads.

Love this spot, I hit them up at farmers market and go to the shop too. Their items are delicious and they have legit bakery skills!
