I'm a huge fan of bakeries, & this is hands down the best bakery I've ever been to.
During my stay in Montreal, I visited four highly reviewed bakeries, but none of them came close to this place. Everything we tried was incredibly fresh, delicate, & absolutely delicious. It was so good that we finished an entire box of baked goods in about five minutes-& immediately went back in to buy more.
The customer service was also excellent-friendly, welcoming, & efficient. The shop itself was very clean & well kept, which made the experience even better.
One thing to note is that the indoor seating area is quite limited, so I'd recommend planning for takeout rather than dining in. Also, be sure to double-check their opening days & hours-they're only open Wednesday through Saturday, & closed the rest of the week.
Highly recommend if you're looking for top-tier baked goods.
We had an amazing experience with this place! We were driving from Ottawa & were going to arrive around 6 PM, even though they close at 4:30. Somehow, they still managed to help us - they took payment online, sent us the receipt, & even arranged for our order to be picked up from the business next door.
That level of service is beyond exceptional. Truly above & beyond what anyone would expect. Honestly, you deserve 10 stars instead of 5!
Highly recommend - thank you again for making it work for us!
Great bakery! Haven't had many Kouign Amann, so not sure if they are all this good but this was amazing. I like how they make sure it's served at the right temp. It was flaky, dense, soft & the exterior chewy a tiny bit in a good way. Also a great taste & balance of sweetness. Will definitely be back.
Leur café est excellent & leur viennoiseries tout autant.
C'est la première fois que j'y allais & j'ai vite compris pourquoi le café était bondée de clients. Je recommende fortement.
Been getting the Kouing Amann every time I get the chance to buy it (this place does not open every day & sometimes takes a summer break), but every time is as good as the first time I tried it. Ive also had coffee & other pastries. Quality is superio
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!
