OUR HISTORY
Every great business begins with an idea—and sometimes, a happy accident.
In the early days of Lviv Croissants, one unexpected baking experiment changed everything. During a routine batch, our chef strayed from the traditional method of thawing and baking croissants. The result was a larger, flakier, and more generously sized croissant unlike anything we had seen before.
At first, it seemed like a mistake. But after tasting it, our founder, Andrii Halytskyi, immediately recognized its potential.
While croissants had long been associated with butter, jam, and sweet pastries, Andrii envisioned something different. He saw an opportunity to transform the oversized croissant into a satisfying meal by filling it with fresh, savory ingredients. That simple idea became our very first signature creation—the Lviv Croissant.
Today, it remains one of our most popular menu items and the foundation of a brand enjoyed by millions of guests.
“In just over a decade, Lviv Croissants has grown into one of Ukraine’s leading fast-casual restaurant brands, with over 190 locations across the country, including both company-operated and franchised bakeries. Every day, more than 2,000 dedicated team members work to strengthen a proudly Ukrainian brand that brings people together through quality food, genuine hospitality, and a passion for exceptional service.
Our international journey began in 2022 with our expansion into Poland. Today, Lviv Croissants operates more than 220 locations across eight countries, including Ukraine, Poland, the United States, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, South Korea, France, and Norway. This continued growth demonstrates the strength and adaptability of our concept—even through extraordinary challenges. Our business has truly been battle-tested—literally.
As we continue expanding across North America and beyond, our mission remains unchanged: to serve freshly baked croissants with a wide variety of savory and sweet fillings, exceptional coffee, and the warm, welcoming atmosphere inspired by the city of Lviv.”
