The first time I've ever had something from here was when the bf brought me a kouign amann after work (the best!). And it was freaking delicious! I've had kouign amanns before in San Francisco where pastries are all the rage, and it's definitely comparable. It's hard to go wrong with a caramelized pastry with flaky layers. *insert heart eye emoji*
I was randomly having a craving for mac and cheese for lunch and when I yelped it Squarz was the first thing that came up under the search results. So I decided to pre-order a few things from their website to pick up.
- Mac n Cheese: You can add bacon to this for 0.50 cents but it honestly doesn't need it. The small size is perfect as a side since it's so rich. Definitely satisfied the craving.
- Side Salad: I tried to get some greens to make myself feel less guilty about the mac n cheese. They actually ended up comping this for me since apparently it comes with other veggies such as cucumbers that they ran out of. Works for me!
- Turkey, swiss, and garlic aioli squaressant sandwich: Pretty self-explanatory. The butter croissant bun was delicious and super flaky. Definitely the star ingredient.
- Fresh squeezed lemonade: Really good! They give it to you in a huge cup too. Satisfies that sweet tooth.
- Kouign Amann: Yep, got another one. It might seem a bit pricey since it's $4 for one, but IT IS SO WORTH IT. Don't leave without getting one. Even though I was sooo full from trying a little bit of everything, I for sure had room to eat this. I repeat, CARAMELIZED croissant. How can that not be good???
They make ordering online really easy since their menu is displayed all on one easy-to-read page with photos. I really want to try one of their pies next time since that's what most people seem to get. Plus I have high expectations since they seem to do that flaky/delicious part of their bread so well.
And if possible try to get your items take out since the store is reeeeeal small. You walk in and the counter is right there. It's basically a long hallway. They do have very limited seating (I think a couple inside and a few outside). Luckily it wasn't too busy when I stopped by so it is possible to eat there if you need to. Everyone there was very nice as well!
