Croissant Monkland

Open until 7 pm

Montreal-West, Westmount

Pastries Café Bistro Desserts & Sweets

Review Summary

Croissant Monkland draws a loyal crowd with top notch croissants and a wide range of pastries and breads, with almond croissant, pain au chocolat, raspberry and Nutella croissants often singled out for freshness and flavor. The baked goods are fresh, flaky and buttery, made with care, and the aroma of butter greets visitors on entry. The place is noted for reasonable prices and friendly service, and it is praised as a must visit for pastry lovers, sometimes even compared favorably to Paris and North American standards. Busy weekends bring long lines and limited seating, and a few reviews mention the small space and entrance steps as barriers, along with occasional inconsistencies or hygiene concerns. Coffee is generally acceptable but not the main draw, while the pastries and other treats remain the highlight of visits.View restaurant profile
