At 316 avenue du Mont-Royal Est, we've been loving the kouing-amann for over 30 years.
A true neighborhood café, the owner and employees work together to offer gourmet pastries (made with passion!), fresh sandwiches and the famous kouing-amann.
Let yourself be tempted by a moment of greed in a warm family atmosphere that has lasted for nearly three decades.

A life-changing viennoiserie experience! The croissant had so many incredibly crisp, thin layers, that you could practically see through, which shattered with every intensely buttery bite. The namesake Kouign Amann was gorgeously buttery & caramelized. Even the apple turnover was remarkable! We went back the next day before heading home & couldn't have been happier! I might move to Montréal just to have access to this incredible bakery!

I don't know how people in this city stay so skinny with a place like this around. We've never had Kouign Amann & it was so good, we came back multiple times on our 9 day trip. The signature offering is very buttery with a nice crispy surface somewhat similar to a good croissant. I wouldn't visit Montréal without sampling this place.

It would've been a shame if they didn't do their namesake justice...but they absolutely knocked it out of the park! Excellent Kouign Amann with a crispy sweet exterior & flaky buttery interior. Would've loved to also try their croissants but they sell out quick!

ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS. Perfect balance of sweet & salty, fluffy & crispy, buttery & flaky...all the things 🥹 Whatever you plan to order, get extra. Especially if you are visiting. Yes, it is that good.

Must visit when in Montreal! Their kouign-amann is so buttery but not overly sweet. Their apple puff pastries, their pain au chocolat, their croissants (cheese croissants, almond croissants, plain croissants) are all amazing, classic textbook viennoiserie tradition. Their hot chocolate is not overly sweet, which goes very well with a slice of warm kouign-amann on a cold winter day. The place is near Mont-Royal station. It has this lovely vibe of old historic Montreal store in the inside, from the decor to the music they play. There are only two small tables (2-3 chairs per table), but the pastries get sold so steadily that, whenever I visit, the pastries are always warm & fresh of the oven. I've never able to take a picture because I forget everything except eating when I hold their pastries.

Brought back from Montreal, their most famous item is the kouign-amann, a caramelized butter pastry. I purchased a 6-inch one. Heating it briefly in the microwave enhances the texture remarkably. The exterior remains crispy due to the caramelization, while the interior is soft & buttery, resembling a cross between cake & bread. It's sweet & aromatic, perfect to pair with a cup of coffee.

Been going here for years. Will never stop returning so long as they continue to have those buttery pastries (kouign amann) & fresh delicate croissants.

If you are looking for incredibly authentic french croissant then look no further. So light & buttery & the chocolate inside is rich & high quality. Perfect place for pastries!

Flour, butter & sugar? I’m down!
Excellent Kouign Amann & almond croissants. They’re both buttery, flaky & hard to beat in the city. The Kouign Amann can also be bought as a whole cake or half.
I see myself dropping by whenever I’m around.
