I highly recommend The Orangery. My order was ready on time, and everything we tried was delicious. The croissants reminded me of the ones I ate in Quebec. The stand out for me, though, was the jalapeño cheddar loaf…it was bread perfection, crispy crust on the outside, soft and chewy on the inside and the flavor…*chef’s kiss*. I will order again for myself, for a special event and as gifts for friends and family.

If there w were 10 stars I would still wish that there were more. Andrews croissants are probably the best I’ve ever had, including those I had in Paris. Amazing flavor and texture. I can’t wait to taste my sourdough bread! I will never go to Waterville again without remembering to place an order in advance at he Orangerie Bakery!!
Absolutely delicious! The cinnamon rolls I ordered were a fantastic texture and the olive sourdough had a lovely crust and a citrusy zing. Plus the experience of pick up is charming!
Best "Pain au Chocolat" (chocolate croissants) west of Paris! Andrew pays attention to the details with his small batch breads and pastries. If you're looking for a neighborhood bakery, check out his tasty creations!
I have had the pleasure of enjoying the Seedy Pan Loaf bread several times. Absolutely hands down the best flavor, texture, appearance, and generous amount of seeds I have ever experienced!
I was introduced to The Orangery when my daughter gave me a beautiful Swiss Croissant. I had just eaten dinner so was not hungry at all. As we chatted I took a nibble - perfection; then another - the crispy, flaky lamination; then another - the beautifully melted Swiss cheese! Soon half of it was gone! I went online and ordered the seed rolls. Next will be an assortment of croissants. Keep up the amazing baking.
The Orangery is amazing! I feel so lucky to have access to well made and delicious fresh croissants and fresh bread. Ordering and paying is simple on an easy to navigate website and pick up is easy too! And great tip, it all freezes well and tastes just a delicious when thawed!
Andrew is a wonderful and very professional baker! His croissant (both kinds) are buttery, flaky, crunchy, and beautiful --like the ones we've had in France. We took the pull-apart rolls (also buttery) to a big Thanksgiving dinner and they loved them. Highly recommend Andrew and The Orangery.
We ordered pull-apart rolls recently for Thanksgiving, and everyone loved them! Highly recommend.
We also ordered croissants (1 plain, 1 chocolate, 1 kouign amain) for a morning treat. They were THE best I have ever had in my life. I could hardly believe how delicious they were and how much better than getting in a restaurant or local grocery.
