Got to try Xioxo treat of the local. This bakery is clean and offers plenty of croissant types. We…read moretried their chocolate croissant and love it. Filled with plenty of chocolate. Watch out so it doesn't drip on you.

I love pastries. And I love local food…read more When I walked past the Nectar's window, I was afraid I might have been hallucinating. The delectable pastries in the window looked like something I could have only dreamed about. The friendly lady behind the counter told me that Girona was known for xuixos (shoo-sho), and I could tell by the look of these that Nectar may have had the best ones in town. I tried 3 more of these across the city, and Nectar had the best (in my opinion). I also would recommend trying the chocolate covered orange peels... unbelievable! So good! This is definitely one of the best pastry shops in Girona. Go here!

I bet you this coffee shop has got the best views along the river. It's so beautiful. This place is…read morenicely decorated and the staff is nice. Did I mention they're pet friendly as well? We just came here for something sweet. Ordered a coffee with milk and a chocolate chip cookie. The coffee was great. The chocolate chip cookie was HUGE but really dry. Was hoping for a moist chewy cookie. Anyways, if you get a chance, try to score the table near the window. I believe there are only two tables available there.

So this review is based on the pastry and chocolate almond meringue alone!…read more Almond meringues must be a Girona thing or a Catalan thing because their everywhere! Most places have the almonds crushed up and mixed into the meringues . There are tons of bakeries all over Girona offering yummy treats... But this was the only place I've seen so far (in my two days) where the huge meringues are dipped in chocolate and have a layer of whole almonds inside the meringue ! DELICIOUS! Literal I could eat nothing but these till we leave! They are so amazing ! The dark chocolate they are dipped in is fantastic too! My husband got the Xuxo pastry (pronounced :shoeshow) another local traditional pastry: a flaky pastry filled with a cinnamon custard! Once again you can find these around but he really liked the ones here too!!! Yummy I m ready to go back again ... But I'll wait till tomorrow

A nice and cozy bakery tucked away from the main stretch in Girona…read more I honestly did not search for this wonderful little establishment, it just showed up while I was wandering around listening to my stomach scream in protest of being hungry. I figured with the amount of locals and tourists inside and the rest of the city still asleep, I had maybe stumbled upon somewhat of a gem. It is basically your standard bakery, small, quaint staff, delicious scents hitting you as soon as you walk in, and some delectable coffee. As far as pricing, I'd peg it at the middle of the road, so do not expect to fork over too much. My eyes focused in on one thing when I arrived, that being their delectable paninis that are ready to go, which is what I needed at that time. Quick warm up of the panini and I was out the door. Not going to say it was the best I had ever had, but in a pinch it was well worth it and on a side note the coffee was not to bad either! Would I give it another go if I was in the city again, well without a doubt!

I'm entirely serious here: if anyone lives within a mile of this place and then decides to go…read moreanywhere besides Sweets for a croissant, they're just crazy. These are documented the "Best Croissant of Spain in 2012", but I reckon they should still have the title. They have their standard chocolate, dark chocolate, plain (...ahem, BUTTER), plus a "croissant of the month" - today's was coffee passion fruit; plus they have savory croissants. This place is nuts. So delicious. Heads up though, they have bizarre hours.
