Review Summary

Au Kouing Amann is widely celebrated as an essential Montreal destination, with many visitors calling it the best bakery they have ever experienced. 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.

Pâtisserie Au Kouing Amann is one of our favourite pastry shops in the city. They have the worst hours (closed Sunday to Tuesday) but their kouign amann are amazing.

Grabbed a kouign amann ($3.25) & croissant au fromage ($3.50). Flaky, delicious goodness. You won't find a better kouign amann!

Super belle boulangerie bretonne avec des kouing amann authentiques. Des bons prix, semblable aux boulangeries en France. C'est pas trop sucré, c'est bien beurré, je recommande!

Je n'y était pas allée depuis plus d'un an. Nous avons appelé pour réserver notre Kouing Amann. Le cuisiner à été très sympathique & m'a recommandé de le réchauffer selon les indications marquées sur la boite. J'ai respecté les instructions à la lettre. Quelle déception. La surface était délicieuse mais tout l'intérieur était mou pas feuilleté du tout comme nous en avions l'habitude. Je ne sais pas si c'est pcq que la pâte n'était pas assez cuite ou s'il s'agit d'une nouvelle recette de type brioche qui est franchement inintéressante. Ça ne vaut pas le déplacement depuis Laval. Tellement triste. Il nous reste les 2/3 du gros Kounian Aman on essayera de le cuire plus la prochaine fois. Je m'étais souhaité ça pour mon anniversaire...je ne m'attendais pas à cet état de dégradation de la qualité. Ont ils perdu leur cuisinier ?
