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.

Just do yourself a favor & go get a slice of the legendary kouign Aman, you won't regret it. All the pastries tasted were freshly made & delicious & the owner was so kind. Highly recommend.

One of the best little hidden gems in Montreal if you can only get lucky to find their signature pastry the Kouign Amann as it's usually sold out but they said you can order a full pie ahead of time & pick it up to secure your order which I highly recommend because it just might be one of the tastiest treats you've ever tried. Above average Croissants here too & I'm sure all their other stuff is really good as well & reasonably priced 👌🏼 2024 review update has this place still staying on top with a 5 star rating as they just continue to do everything right 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

I've been searching all my life for the best croissant. & this is the place!!! The best croissant in the world!!!! It is amazing. You can taste the savory & sweet butter inside. Which is exactly how I like it. I wish all bakery make the same croissant with lots of butter. The kouign amann was amazing too. I ate too much lol But it's the best. I would come here everyday if I could.

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.

La place a été recommandé par une amie. Leur Kouign Amann est incroyable. Juste assez sucré & salé. L'extérieur croustillant & l'intérieur moelleux & encore chaud. À la première bouché je savais déjà que j'allais pensé encore & encore à cette patisserie. Je vais devoir définitivement me retenir de devoir revenir chaque jour 😋 La place est assez petite & il y avait beaucoup de monde alors nous l'avons mangé à l'extérieur sur la rue piétonnière

At the risk of being dramatic, their kouign amann is the best pastry I have ever had & I'm still thinking about it a week later & a full country away.

Le Kouign-Amann, c'est quoi ? Où peut-on en acheter ? Comment faut-il le déguster ? & si on veut le faire soi-même ? Quelle est sa recette ? Une seule recette à la Pâtisserie Au kouign aman à Mont Royal ! Cette spécialité bretonne à pur délice, frais, chaud, goûteux. Le beurre est l'un des principaux ingrédients, en effet, Kouign-Amann, une fois traduit du breton, signifie « Gâteau au beurre »😋 Quand je suis rentrée à cette pâtisserie, j'ai compris d'où vient cette bonne odeur de gâteau breton chaud & caramélisé 😃 Ils ont aussi des variétés de viennoiseries comme les croissants à prix très abordables, les croissants aux amandes, des chaussons. L'accueil était très chaleureux, amical, on se sent bien chez nous ❤️ Fortement recommandé !

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!

8 years ago I stumbled into this Cafe accidentally & had one of the best desserts I had ever eaten. Now 8 years later I had the pleasure of eating it again. Nowhere else I have tried kouign amann comes close to the pastry here. Crackling, chewy crust, & an almost custardy soft inside. 10/10 would eat again. A must eat for any Montreal trip.

Un incontournable de Montréal ! Il faut essayer au moins une fois le kouign! Je pense que maintenant le croissant aux amandes est quelques peu différent que celui sur mes photos. Il n'y a pas d'option végane, mais j'aimerai voir & goûter un kouign végan! Maybe one day 🤞🏻 Selon mon chum, leur croissant est le meilleur au monde (ou de Montréal)

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.
