Do you want a plain butter croissant, something filled and sweet, a savoury pastry, or a box you can order ahead? These five picks answer those different cravings with named products, prices and buying routes—not an invented citywide taste-test. Prices and menu details were checked on 7 October 2026; weights appear only where the seller publishes them.
Choose by craving
| Where | What to order | Why it earns a place | How to buy |
|---|---|---|---|
| Flaky Pastry Croissant Co., City Walk | Flaky Classic AED21; almond double-baked AED29 | The most croissant-led menu here, moving from a French-butter classic to filled and double-baked pastries. | Visit its City Walk show-kitchen location or order through delivery platforms. |
| Lavi Café & Bakery, Al Mina | Butter croissant AED14; almond AED18 | A simple, early-morning choice: its menu describes a 72-hour-fermented butter croissant and says the bakery bakes on site at 5am. | Walk in at Port Views 3 or order through Talabat, Deliveroo or Noon Food. |
| Odeon, Jumeirah 3 | Butter croissant, 70g, AED11; mini butter, 30g, AED7 | Useful when size matters: the live shop lists a small snack size as well as full croissants and filled options. | Direct online shop lists delivery across Dubai; the restaurant is on Beach Road. |
| LPF Bakery, DIP 2 | Plain croissant, 90g, AED6.80; double-baked almond, 90g, AED8 | The clearest low-price, fixed-weight comparison, with cheese and za’atar alternatives at the same size. | Order from the bakery’s online shop; its listing gives a DIP 2 warehouse and 2–3 business-day shipping. |
| Damand Bakery & Café, Al Jaddaf | Charred-corn croissant AED35; upside-down almond AED22 | Go for a more composed savoury or sweet pastry: the menu names fillings and toppings instead of stopping at “cheese” or “almond.” | Buy at Al Wasl Sports Club Shops, Shop 52; the venue lists dine-in, pickup and delivery. |
Five different reasons to make the stop
Flaky Pastry Croissant Co., City Walk — when the pastry is the plan
Flaky calls itself a croissanterie, and its menu gives you room to stay classic or make the pastry the main event. The French-butter Flaky Classic is AED21; the almond double-baked is AED29, with almond frangipane, praline and roasted almonds. Those are two different purchases: a plain butter pastry and an almond-filled one, so the price gap is not a like-for-like comparison. A five-piece classic box is AED100 on the delivery menu.
The City Walk outlet says its baking can be watched from the customer side of the production kitchen, giving the visit a reason beyond grabbing a pastry. City Walk lists restaurant hours separately from shop hours and notes that holiday timings may change; check the outlet before going. Delivery menus and charges depend on the address entered in the app, so confirm those at checkout. The delivery menu also labels one section “Summer Menu”; seasonal or sold-out pastries from that section are not treated here as dependable current picks.

Lavi Café & Bakery, Al Mina — an early bake with a short ingredient story
Lavi’s butter croissant is listed at AED14, described as 72-hour fermented and made with French butter; its almond version is AED18, with frangipane and toasted almond flakes. The bakery says pastries are baked on site every morning at 5am. That makes this a useful pick if you want a straightforward pastry with a published process and an early café opening, rather than a dessert-style filling.
The café is at Port Views 3 in Al Mina, opens at 7am, and lists delivery through Talabat, Deliveroo and Noon Food. Its online menu calls the butter pastry “72-hour fermented”; a separate brand page describes hand lamination with European butter and 27 layers. Those are the operator’s descriptions, not an independent tasting assessment. A breakfast croissant with scrambled egg, turkey ham and cheddar is AED38, but it is a plated breakfast item rather than a plain-pastry price comparison.

Odeon, Jumeirah 3 — compare the 30g bite with the 70g pastry
Odeon’s online bakery shop is unusually helpful about size. A mini butter croissant is listed at 30g for AED7; the full butter croissant is 70g for AED11. For something filled, a 50g mini almond croissant is AED10, while the 100g almond croissant is AED18. Chocolate versions are AED8 for 30g and AED12 for 70g. These are listed as separate products, so compare the size as well as the price.
Odeon says its bakery goods are available for Dubai delivery, and its Jumeirah 3 restaurant is on Beach Road. Its contact page conflicts: one location panel lists 8am–10pm, while its “Our Stores” panel says 8am–11pm, so check with the restaurant before setting out. The direct shop showed the large croissants as available to add to cart when checked. That status can change before a delivery slot; confirm the live cart and delivery area before paying. If you need only a little pastry alongside coffee, the 30g mini has a clear use; for a fuller bakery stop, the 70g butter croissant is the more direct comparison.

LPF Bakery, Dubai Investment Park 2 — a measured, lower-cost option
LPF’s shop lists plain croissants at 90g for AED6.80, double-baked almond at the same 90g for AED8, and cheese or za’atar at 90g for AED7.50. Here, the published weight makes the comparison more useful than a bare “from AED” price. It is the lowest listed price among the full-size, weighed plain pastries in this guide, though the other operators do not all publish weights, so that is a menu-price comparison rather than a per-gram ranking.
LPF is based at Warehouse 21-22-23, Span Precast, Dubai Investment Park 2. Its online shop lists these products with add-to-cart controls; a product page gives a 2–3 business-day shipping estimate. It operates as a bakery supplier as well as a direct shop, so this is the practical option if ordering from a production bakery suits you; it is not a café stop. Check the checkout’s delivery terms and current product availability for your address.

Damand Bakery & Café, Al Jaddaf — for a savoury filling with a point of view
Damand’s menu ranges from a plain butter croissant at AED18 to za’atar at AED19 and triple cheese at AED25. For a savoury pastry with more going on, the charred-corn version combines cheesy béchamel, Parmesan and pickled jalapeño for AED35. On the sweet side, its upside-down almond croissant pairs house-made almond cream with sliced almonds for AED22; pistachio cream is AED24.
This is the entry for a savoury pastry that can carry a light lunch, or a sweeter take that sounds more like a composed bakery creation than a plain almond croissant. Damand is at Al Wasl Sports Club Shops, Shop 52, Al Jaddaf, and its menu says the counter bakes fresh daily. Product details and prices are from the live menu; ask the venue what is still in the case if arriving late.

Before you go
The useful distinction is what each price buys: LPF gives a published 90g pastry at a low listed price; Odeon gives a mini-to-full-size ladder; Lavi puts its bake time and fermentation front and centre; Damand and Flaky offer more elaborate fillings. Check the live menu for sold-out or seasonal pastries, and confirm delivery availability and any charges for your address. No tasting notes here are presented as first-hand experience.
