The signature kouign amann is frequently described as a heavenly masterpiece, noted for its perfect balance of a caramelized, crispy exterior and a rich, buttery, soft interior. Beyond the namesake pastry, the almond croissants and various other viennoiseries are highly praised for their freshness, delicate texture, and high-quality ingredients. The atmosphere is consistently described as cozy and welcoming, complemented by exceptionally kind and professional service. While the space is compact and popular enough to sometimes feature lines, the overall experience is considered a must-try for any pastry lover visiting the city.

Excellent bakery. Pastries were fresh & sweet! However, if you arrive within an hour of closing, certain items may not be available. Would love to return in the early hours when all items on the menu are available. Thanks

I thought there was no way the hype could be real, but I didn't even manage to take a picture of the slice of Kouign-Amann before it was gone. Buttery & salty & somehow crunchy & soft, this is like no pastry or treat I've ever had. Totally worth waiting in line.

This pie did not disapoint !!! It's so simple but had the most comfy buttery flaky delicious taste to it, the sweetness is perfect & that crust is the cherry on top

This cozy & quaint little place completely stole my heart! As a tourist, I walked in & instantly fell in love with the vibe. Even the customers were so friendly & welcoming. One lovely man who happened to be a regular even shared his table with me since there are only two tables indoors, & we ended up chatting & getting to know each other for almost an hour. It was such a lovely, unexpected experience! I tried their famous dessert with an Americano, & it really hit the spot! 😍 The whole experience was such a wonderful surprise & definitely one of the highlights of my trip. I'd absolutely come back here the next time I'm in Montreal, even all the way from Vancouver! 💙

This was the best croissant we had in Montreal. The service is friendly & the Kouing Amann cake was delicious.

Their name sake 3.5 cad & chausson aux pommes 3.5 cad were bang for the buck , they have kept the prices low by saving on packaging & other smart things , must try if you are in the city , by the way their name comes from Brittany region of France where they speak Breton language!

Cute place & fast & efficient friendly staff. I'm disappointed in the kouin Amann, but I've tried all kinds before. This one is heavy & dense & A Lot of butter. It has a good caramelized crust but very moist as if undercooked. I was expecting a lighter texture. The almond croissant is soft & almost like raw in the he centre . Could not tell the almond flavo
