Bernie Beigne is widely praised for fresh, soft, and fluffy donuts with generous fillings and toppings, and the apple fritter is repeatedly described as huge, crisp on the outside and wonderfully fluffy inside; the original glazed, Boston cream, Simpson, and other flavors are frequently highlighted as standout options. The experience is marked by friendly, efficient service and a welcoming vibe, with lines often forming but moving quickly, and many reviews call Bernie Beigne one of the best donut spots in Montreal (and even Canada) and worth the wait, a must-try whether for takeout or a box to share.

I came here because of the smell that o felt from 2 blocks away. There was a small line but it moved fast. Then it was the choice: so many different flavors, I wanted to try them all but I only had one stomach. I loved the glazed one & the oreo one the most. The difference between the doughnuts here & the ones in other places is the dough. It is softer & less chewy. I loved it & I totally recommend it.
Place is just top notch... If you're a real yeasted donut lover, this is your spot. It's always pretty fresh, dough is clearly handled by people who know fermentation, frying is on point. I stick to simpler flavors because I really want to taste the dough. I think some of their filled donuts have *too* much filling. But these are just my preferences - you can't really go wrong, I think. Prices are really good too for the size & quality. A glazed donut here is like half the price of a typical croissant, which is amazing. Also, the employees are very kind & efficient without making you feel rushed. The apple fritters are limited, but if you happen to see them, they're a must-buy!
Gosh, these donuts are really good. Simpons donut is a classic that I will continuously go back for. I never say this but I hope they become a chain & have a billion locations across Canada because everyone should be able to try a Bernie's donut.
