What reviews say

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.

Je suis Bretonne & j'ai voulu passer pendant mon séjour à Montréal , j'ai pris une portion de Kouign Amann & un chocolat chaud à emporter. Mon Gobelet, a commencé à fuir quand je marchais malheureusement. Mais le Kouign Amann était bon . Mais pas aussi bon qu'en Bretagne bien sûr. ☺️ Jolie déco intérieure 😊

Wow! The best Kouign Amann I have tasted! I have tried the ones in Paris & in a very popular Pastiserrie along St Germain & I found them very rich & sweet & not as soft as the one I tasted here! That was why when I went back to Paris couple times after, I never bothered to taste them again. The one's here were very moist & soft & not that sweet! I was very full when we came in to try some & it was so good I finished one slice & decided to buy the grand one to take back home to Toronto! The lady serving was very nice as well!! Now I am wishing I bought two grand ones!

Disclaimer: I can only comment on the Kouign Amann as it was the only thing I tried. This is the best Kouign Amann I've had in Montreal! It's certainly better than anything I've tried in Toronto as well. This is my second time trying it & has become my go-to everytime I'm in Montreal.
