Bar à Beurre emerges as a cozy, charming café with a dollhouse feel, a staircase up to a few intimate tables, and a welcoming staff. Reviewers praise delicious pastries, especially macarons, apple cake, and a good cappuccino, plus affordable lunches and a well‑stocked high tea. The atmosphere and decor are repeatedly described as immersive and warm, making it a pleasant spot to work on wifi or gather with friends. Some notes point to desserts that can be too sweet or overly buttery, and a few guests found cake flavors or customization details not fully aligned with expectations, along with occasional early closures and uneven communication. The venue also offers cute accessories and dog treats, and special experiences such as generous, well‑presented birthday cakes impressed some guests, while others felt price rises and flavor gaps detracted from overall value.
Got a delicious Chicken & Brie panini. Took a butter bagel to go! Very delicious, super cute environment, & lovely staff. Definitely recommend stopping in when you need a sweet treat on your Montreal adventures. Signs were (understandably) in French, but the lady at the front spoke English which made it easy for my non-bilingual self!

What an amazing place! Really unique & delicious treats!!! My only problem is with their hours - 7:30-4:30!? Who decided this!? As a working person I have no time to go in the morning (what proper downtown Montrealer is up at 7:30 anyway? That's for suburbanites who have to sit in traffic for 2 hours) & by the time I get off work they're closed. They would have taken 5x more of my money by now if they kept hours that aligned with when I, & I'm sure the majority of their customer pool, can go. Why not 11:00- 7:00? 10:30-6:30? Would probably even be easier for them to find staff, because few young people want to wake up at 6AM to make a 7:30 shift
We are visiting Montreal - we stumbled upon this place & stopped for brunch. Everything was delicious! The people are really friendly. I want to eat all the things in the cabinet; but I'm too full!! I have already pinned this place for my next visit to Montreal - I will definitely be coming back!
Great ambiance & decoration! Clearly a lot of butter here! Haha, I did not notice until I tasted the food 😅 Great selection of food. Food & lattee are good.

Such a lovely little place! Stopped in here with two grumpy kids looking for something remotely healthy, & was thrilled to be able to get them a grilled cheese sandwich & a delicious smoothie- picky kid approved! Super friendly service, several dairy free options for my husband, & an amazing selection of baked goods, all for a reasonable price. We'll be back here.
We were attracted by the exterior decor & once inside we realized it gets better. So many things we would love the purchase including prayer style candles with pop stars or celebrities on them which we loved. Apart from the beautiful & elaborate interior we enjoyed some magnificent, homemade tasting macarons in various delicious flavours & French toast latte, yes read that again, it's as good as it sounds. We also couldn't help but get the cookie adorned with lucky charms which was too if to finish but still wonderful.
Beautiful Beatrix Potter window display. Great selection of Easter/spring theme cakes & biscuits.Order in advance for the specialty cakes if you don't want to be disappointed.
This is a super cute & aesthetic place to just work a little while eating & drinking a hot chocolate. The food was so good & really not too expensive, also note that the prices are incl taxes!
Thought it was super weird that they display the French macarons so beautifully packaged in a lovely clear box with a ribbon but don't offer the same packaging when people actually want to buy them? I really wanted to gift the macarons to someone & had asked if they could package it like they were displayed in the windows but instead they gave me my twelve unevenly baked French macarons in a takeaway box. Also didn't appreciate having being served after other clients when I was waiting first. Most probably because it is a super small place though.
