Au 316 avenue du Mont-Royal Est, cela fait plus de 30 ans qu’on aime le kouing-amann.
Véritable café de quartier, patron et employés s’unissent pour proposer chaque jour, des viennoiseries gourmandes (faites avec passion !), des sandwichs frais ainsi que le fameux kouing-amann.
Laissez-vous tenter par un moment de gourmandise dans une ambiance familiale et chaleureuse qui dure maintenant depuis près de trois décennies.
Au Kouing-Amann est largement salué pour sa pâtisserie éponyme, un beurre et caramel croquant avec un intérieur tendre qui fond en bouche, souvent décrit comme le meilleur Kouign Amann de Montréal, et les croissants ainsi que le croissant aux amandes sont également mis en avant; la boutique est petite et chaleureuse, avec peu de places assises et une prédominance du service à emporter, tandis que le personnel est régulièrement apprécié pour sa gentillesse et son efficacité; les horaires peuvent être limités ou variables selon les jours, il faut donc prévoir; globalement, les avis soulignent la fraîcheur, l équilibre et les saveurs beurrées riches, faisant de cette boulangerie une adresse incontournable pour les amateurs de viennoiseries à Montréal et souvent digne de revenir pour en ramener un chez soi.
If you're in Montreal & love pastries, you absolutely have to try Kouign-Amann!
Hands down, this was one of the best pastries I've ever had. The Kouign-amann is simply amazing - perfectly caramelized sugar on the outside with rich, buttery layers on the inside. Crispy, sweet, & melt-in-your-mouth delicious.
We also tried the croissant & the almond croissant, & both were outstanding. The almond croissant is a must-try - flaky, buttery, & generously filled, with sliced almonds on top adding the perfect crunch.
It's a small place & very busy, but that just shows how good it is. Totally worth the wait. A must-visit spot in Montreal for pastry lovers!

Finally made it here while they were open after many failed attempts over the years! I got the most coveted kouign aman, some butter croissants & a couple almond croissants. They weren't the best almond croissants I've ever had but they were okay. I did however love the butter croissants & the kouign aman as I could taste the deliciousness of butter minus the greasiness. Now I have to wait 4 days for them to reopen lol
Love the pastries here! Initially got the Almond crossaint & this raisin/orange pinwheel. The almond crossaint was freshly made & was the highlight for me! Realized that the bakery is specialized in making Kouign-amann [thus the name lol] so i ordered a slice. It was very yummy but a little too heavy for me! My boyfriend very much enjoyed it though! Should def make this a stop if you are travelling to Montreal!
What a delicious selection of pastries! I was in line at around 10:45 & got in to order by 11am on a saturday. I suggest going earlier in the day if you can because they had already run out of almond croissant & chocolatines. I grabbed the last regular croissant as well.
My favourite has to be warm kouing
amann slice! Although it tastes more bready than croissant-y, the top & bottom was crunchy & glazed which added to the fluffyness of the center. The raisin bread itself & regular croissants were also light & airy! However, the only pastry i wasnt fond of was the milk bread. This bread was stuffed with some chocolate but the texture just didnt suit my taste.
I would definitely be back earlier next time to try the almond croissant & chocolatine!
THE BEST I have had in Canada. The kouign Amann is sooo good! The almond croissant & milk bread with chocolate filling is amazing. We also liked the coffee. We went back twice! Definitely worth a visit if you are in Montreal.
Did a quick stop here yesterday on the recommendation of a friend. I tried the Kouign Amann for the first time, & wow, I'm ready to make the 5hr drive back for more. So very good! Buttery, flakey, with that caramelized top. It was a religious experience in every bite!
Also had their almond croissant which was also very good.
Awesome place. Very affordable yet delicious fresh pastries. Some of my favorites are the croque monsieur, kouign amann, quiche, & the almond croissant. Definitely will stop by again when I'm in town.
Wow. What an absolutely amazing place. I have eaten every product of theirs & literally everything is amazing. Their croissants are gorgeous, as is their honey glazed tarte by the slice. All of the flavoured croissants (almond, cheese, & chocolate) are phenomenal. Their coffee is great
This seems to be a gem even for Montreal residents. Barely any that I spoke to have heard of it & yet it was my favourite bakery by far!
I split an almond croissant with my friend & it was the single best croissant I have ever had in my life. I don't even like almond croissants, & it was better than any other croissant I ever had. My friend offered me the last bite of his half, & I couldn't even be polite before letting it melt in my mouth. Combine that with the friendliest, most hard-working staff you've ever met & you will find yourself writing a 5 star review as quick as me.

The most deliciously buttery pastry bites in all of Montreal. Their kouign amann is simply the most delectable baked item I have ever tasted in my life. It is the epitome of sweet, caramelized buttery, flaky. Also had an almond croissant which was probably the best croissant I've had. Looked a bit flat & deflated but was just as sweet, buttery, flaky, & delicious as the kouign amann. Both smelt & tasted so good they was gone before I had the chance to take any photos. Truly a must visit bakery.
What a phenomenal pastry shop &, more specifically, pastry itself! One slice was more than enough for the two of us because it's so tremendously buttery, but it's delicious & I wish we could've brought one home with us to share! The almond croissants looked a little flat, but the plain ones looked & smelled good.
Everything was delicious. My favorite was the almond croissant. Coffee was also good. Enjoyed watching the pastries being made. Feels like a neighborhood treasure. Judging by the foot traffic, has quite the following but not uncomfortably busy or crowded. Just steady.
