Layers: The tastiest bakery in De Pijp

"The perfect croissant, layer by layer". That's what chef Alexandre Scour promises to deliver at Layers bakery. And believe us: he delivers. After years of experience at places like Pantopia and Public Space, he felt it was time to open his own business with his expertise. His own place, his own vision: the perfect croissant, exactly as you would want to eat it in Paris. Crispy, buttery, airy, and layer by layer perfect.

Layers opened in August on Saenredamstraat and was an instant hit. In the morning, you can find the croissants and viennoiserie you'd cycle out of your way for, and later in the day, the bakery slowly transforms into a deli with sandwiches and even burgers for dinner. The lobster roll is definitely on our wish list.
