Beigne Habitude receives praise for inventive, artisanal donuts with a soft, airy interior and a crisp exterior, and for flavors that rotate beyond the usual assortment. The donuts are often described as high quality and worth the premium, with many reviewers naming it among the best in Montreal. Favorite flavors vary from mango chili, rhubarb, hibiscus goyave, lemon meringue, and cinnamon to caramel and baba varieties, with textures and balance highlighted as standout features. Service is frequently noted as friendly and knowledgeable, with staff offering helpful flavor explanations and recommendations. A minority of reviews express disappointment with some experimental flavors or a batch that seemed overly oily or too sweet, and some mention limited range at times. Packaging waste is criticized by some, suggesting a move toward more eco friendly boxes. Overall Beigne Habitude is viewed as a standout donut destination in the city, with many considering it the best and a must try.
One of the challenges when visiting a big city like Montreal is staying away from tourist traps that promise great things but have misleading reviews. When we walked into this donut shop, you could tell within the first 5 seconds that the place is as good as advertised. These donuts were PERFECT. Fluffy & soft, with absolutely amazing flavours. The owners were kind & helpful too. They've created something special & I hope more people have a chance to try this place out, it doesn't get much better than this.

Disclaimer: I am not a lover of donuts. Yesterday, walking back to my car from Milano on St. Laurent, I spotted a sign I hadn't seen before, so I decided to explore. My first impression of Beigne Habitude was how spotless it was! Although, donuts are not usually appealing to me, I spotted one that was guava & lime - 2 flavours I adore & decided to buy one. Once I was buying one, I thought it might be a good idea to buy two to taste test later on. So I chose a blueberry & maple syrup fritter. I'm leaving a review because I cannot believe how delicious these were! The flavours of lime & guava were sublime, & they balanced each other perfectly. The texture of the donut itself was light & fluffy - no sign of being deep fried at all! This morning, we decided to have the blueberry & maple syrup fritter for breakfast, & it was a perfect beginning to a wonderful day! Beigne Habitude Will certainly see me again, & if you love donuts, you should definitely head that way! 😋
I would put 10 stars if I could. It's the BEST DONUTS EVER. they are fluffy & not overly sweet. The flavours are nothing like I have ever seen at any donut shop before. My favourite is the mango coco chili & matcha fraise. But ALL OF THEM ARE FINGER LICKING! A must try for everyone.
Not your typical eye candy donuts shop. Very different kind of flavours & the dought is amazing. Really fluffy & it melts in your mouth. Was very happy with my first purchase this weekend. Will repeat
The very best donuts you'll find on the island. Each one are amazingly textured & the flavour profiles are unreal. It will surely become a landmark in no time.
These are the best donuts we've ever had. Having these for the first time ever is truly a wonderful experience that everyone should have. It is true that their specialty is the variety of doughs they offer. We had the honey cruller with sunflower seed crumble that sat so lightly in your mouth & was so incredibly soft. The blueberry maple fritter was crispy & decadent & did not feel heavy at all. The hibiscus glazed donut was such an interesting flavour bomb that left me finishing it first. Not to mention the amazing service I had with the employee who took her time to walk me through the menu in detail, all done on the phone. The service was as great & as rememberable as the donuts. Thank you for making my Sunday morning.

I love this shop!! The owners clearly care a lot of the quality of the their product. It's evident in their inspired flavours & the perfection of each dough. The shop is easy to find & only a few minutes walking from Jean Talon Market. They offer fresh filter coffee or canned drinks to enjoy with the treats. Highly recommend over any other donut shop in the city!!
As everyone else is saying, I think these are the best donuts in Montreal - & actually, the best donuts I've ever had. Truly. Chewy, soft, & incredible flavours. I'm so happy this place has landed in my neighourhood.
