Old Montreal

Review Summary

Overall, La Cave à Manger comes across as a cozy, hidden gem in Old Montreal with a pastry lineup that many describe as standout for its flaky, buttery textures, especially pistachio croissants and pistachio croissant rolls, croissant éclairs, and almond chocolate croissants, alongside well-regarded bagels and ham and cheese croissants. The space is intimate and often downstairs, with a charming outdoor seating area that is nice in good weather but limited in places and occasionally affected by birds. The staff are repeatedly described as friendly, attentive, and accommodating, helping make visits memorable with small thoughtful touches. Prices are noted as higher for the area, but most feel the quality and freshness justify the cost, even as a few items or experiences fall short or feel overpriced. Overall, it remains a must-visit for pastry lovers and a reliable spot for coffee and treats, balancing Old Port atmosphere with bakery excellence.View restaurant profile
