Review Summary

Reviews highlight Aux Merveilleux de Fred as a standout for pastries, especially the croissants and the signature Merveilleux with meringue cream and chocolate, praised for buttery lamination, soft interiors, and rich flavors, along with excellent coffee and an elegant, welcoming atmosphere. The open kitchen and friendly service reinforce a sense of quality and craftsmanship, and the range of pastries and waffles is frequently cited as luxurious, though a few guests find some items a bit too sweet or the prices high and a handful report occasional inconsistency. Overall, it emerges as a top destination for high end viennoiserie and desserts, with many saying they would return to try more and that the place is a must stop for pastry lovers in Montreal and beyond.

Passage obligatoire quand je passe à Montréal, si vous voulez en ouvrir un à Trois-Rivieres, ça me fera moins loin😜
Super service en tous cas & toujours un délice à déguster.

One of my favorite viennoiseries places!

Their croissants are top quality! It's a high end offering with very fair prices. Service is really professional & the place is super clean, white & neat. All preparations happen in an open kitchen in front of you, proof of quality, professionalism & cleanliness. They use top ingredients. I always go there for the chocolate croissant (so far best in Montreal) & the coffee

I bought a small cherry pastry. It was moldy & when I showed the staff they were incredibly rude & tried to convince me it was just cherry (despite it being green & fuzzy!). The staff replaced it but didn't offer any kind of apology & were super rude when we left. The pastry didn't even taste like cherry. 0/10

Great bakery with wonderful products. Their speciality seems to be Meringue, but I am also a fan of their brioche. Don't miss it!
