Bakery Palestinian Desserts & Sweets Café

Review Summary

Reviews consistently crown Knafé Stop for authentic Palestinian knafeh, with many locals calling it the best in Montreal and even Canada thanks to fresh, in house made cheese and ingredients sourced from Nablus. The knafeh is described as crispy on the outside, chewy and gooey inside, lightly sweet and perfectly balanced, with pistachios and syrup that never feels overpowering, and some orders feature vermicelli for extra texture. The overall experience is highlighted as much for the atmosphere and service as for the pastry, with comments about a friendly, attentive staff, a clean cozy space, and a vibe that feels welcoming and homelike. Several reviewers appreciate the education from staff about the making process and the claim that the pastry is prepared to order. While patience may be needed during busy times, most praise the freshness and the flavor, and many say the price is reasonable for the quality. In sum, Knafé Stop emerges as a standout, authentic and beloved spot for knafeh and Middle Easten sweets in the city.View restaurant profile

Review Summary

Reviews describe Première Moisson as a calm, neighborhood bakery with a pleasant terrace and friendly service, loved for fresh croissants and bread, and for items like a grain-fed chicken sandwich that is hailed as a Montreal classic, while the chicken pot pie is considered good but a bit industrial; opinions about the pastries themselves vary, with some finding the viennoiseries ordinary and others noting that much of the goods are shipped in rather than baked on site, leading to fluctuations in quality since ownership changes; a few readers also praise the plant based milk cappuccino and chouquettes as standout offerings, making it a convenient, reliable stop for a quick visit before appointments.View restaurant profile

Bakery Pastries Portuguese

Review Summary

Reviews of Boulangerie Patisserie S. Miguel describe a small Portuguese family bakery with a wide variety of breads and pastries, where desserts are generally fresh and tasty and prices are very good, though a few items can be disappointing if not made fresh on the day. The place is seen as welcoming and homey, with many praising the bread as among the best and noting the convenience of a walkable location, but it can get busy and a short wait is possible. Some patrons would welcome renovations to improve the space. On the negative side, an apple turnover was tasteless and stale in one visit, while a custard croissant was only okay, and the almond croissant has been enjoyed on other occasions. Overall the reviews reflect a solid, value driven bakery that succeeds for many staples like pain au chocolat and round Portuguese bread, with experiences ranging from highly positive to mixed.View restaurant profile
