Automne Boulangerie is widely praised for its breads and viennoiserie, with many reviewers naming it the best bakery in Montreal and highlighting items like croissants, pain au chocolat, sourdough baguettes, and a variety of loaves such as miche automne, Beaubien multigrain, olive fougasse, tomato focaccia and olive and rosemary bread. The croissants are described as among the best in town, and the pastries are noted for being fresh and flavorful, with the bakerys warm, cafe like atmosphere and glass walls letting customers watch the baking area, making it a nice spot to work or study. Staff are frequently described as friendly and helpful, although a few reviews mention slower service, inefficiency during peak hours and seating shortages. Post pandemic concerns include some fluctuations in bread quality and occasional inconsistency in loaves like Le batard, while others praise the overall freshness and the strong sourdough selection. Desserts are sometimes not vegan friendly, and price levels are mentioned by some as a consideration, but overall the message is that Automne Boulangerie offers excellent bread and pastries and serves as a beloved neighborhood staple with room for consistency in service and stock during busy times.
I tried their different types of bread, all of them is delicious. also I love their granola!! employees are so kind as well. visiting this bakery makes me happy :-)
We used to make it a point to buy our bread here almost every week, even during Covid.
However in the last 2-3 years post Covid, we've been noticing that the quality of their bread has diminished.
The loaves of our favourite bread, Le batard is a hit or miss & there have been lots of misses these days because it's like buying a bag of chips, they've been filled with huge air pockets. The bread lacks consistency.
The customer service also is not as friendly as it used to be except for a limited few who know that a hello or a good morning or even a simple smile &/or thank you is part of the experience of good customer service.
The breads & focaccia here are exquisite. I've tried the miche automne, Beaubien multigrain, blueberry ginger, the olive fougasse, tomatoe focaccia & olive & rosemary bread. The only complaint I have is with the blueberry ginger bread. Some ginger pieces were very large in my loaf 😂. It would be more pleasant if they chop them up more. It was with one loaf only as I bought this variety several times but the last one I bought on Friday the 16th on Bélanger had many larger pieces. Maybe the baker that day didn't chop them up. That bread goes amazing with vegan goat cheese by the way. All their breads are fantastic. Best bakery in Montreal for bread. Desserts & other products I never tried as they are not vegan friendly.
Best bakery in the area serving sourdough baguettes & miches. Their baked goods are all fresh & extremely tasty. I have tried everything from their croissants to their muffins & nothing disappoints.

Supers produits, leur latté est délicieux & que dire de leurs viennoiseries! Cependant, leur service est à revoir. J'ai commandé un latté pour emporter & j'ai dû attendre 15 minutes.

L'un des meilleurs cafés à Montréal! Les viennoiseries sont excellentes. Il manque toutefois souvent des tables & chaises libres comme le café est si populaire.
