To help you choose the best one, I tried croissant breakfast sandwiches from five different national chains.
What I discovered was that not all croissant breakfast sandwiches are made the same.
For instance, while some eateries utilize crescent-shaped croissants, others opt for bar or bun-shaped ones.

Because of its shape, this sandwich felt a bit funny to hold.
I would order a Stuffed Mini Bagel or muffin here instead of this sandwich.
Verdict: The sandwich is good, but needs some tweaking.

The croissant bun was a pale tan, shaped more like a biscuit than a traditional croissant.
It also felt too soft.
Instead of a scrambled egg patty, the one used here looked like a fried sunny-side-up egg.

This sandwich was wrapped in insulated paper and stuffed into a paper bag.
The taste:Pretty good.
Honestly, I was surprised this sandwich was so tasty.

Since it was so messy, my expectations were low.
Although the egg was on the thinner side, its texture matched well with the other ingredients.
The look:In short, worrying.

These sandwiches came nicely wrapped but were so greasy that the wax paper was soggy.
The croissant buns were also fluffy and in a traditional crescent shape.
All in all, I would skip the egg and cheese, but definitely order the double sausage again.

However, the sandwich’s main focal point is its croissant bun, which has a unique circular shape.
I paid $6.45 for a sandwich I would order again in a heartbeat.
The look:In so few words, cute!
It was also neatly put together and came in a waxy paper pocket.
There was a good ratio of egg to bacon to cheese, which also was an excellent detail.
Although this sandwich was on the smaller side, its compact size made it the perfect handheld meal.
The taste:Simple yet tasty.
Four thin slices of bacon provided a slightly salty crunch without tasting too sodium-packed.
I recently tried each of its breakfast sandwiches that were added just last month.
I dropped a steep $8.89 on this sandwich that I’m still reminiscing about.
The look:Well-made.
The taste:My boyfriend, who nabbed a bite, put it perfectlyit tasted “gourmet.”
The croissant bun was also A-plus and wasn’t too greasy or buttery.
Order this with a breakfast pastry or fruit cup and you’ve set yourself up for a great morning.
