Reviews consistently describe Bernie Beigne as a standout donut shop in Montreal, with fresh, soft, airy dough and a wide, well executed range of flavors from classic glazed to inventive options like maple bacon, cotton candy, and Simpson, plus the legendary large apple fritter; the donuts are often praised for being not overly sweet, generously filled, and freshly made, with many saying the plain glazed or the Boston cream are among the best ever and that the fritters are the star. The experience is enhanced by friendly, efficient service and a welcoming vibe, though lines can be long and seating is limited; still, quick turnover and helpful staff keep the mood upbeat, and the packaging and shop design add to the overall appeal. Overall, Bernie Beigne is described as among the best donuts in Montreal, frequently cited as worth the wait, and several reviews mention driving from afar to return, reinforcing its status as a must visit for donut lovers.
You have to experience the apple fritters when they come out of the oven! Yum! I wish there were more cake donut flavors, but the main fonts have perfect texture & smooth glossy icing!

Amazing donuts & that apple fritter is no joke! Great prices & service. Not much area to sit & enjoy though so be expected to take it to go. We will be back for sure.

Best donut I've had in my life! So light & fluffy! You can tell it was fresh! We went for the original first (you must!), & then went back in for seconds! They gave us a free one when we came back in! Cinnamon sugar. Very friendly, & quality product. 100% recommended stop if you're seeking out the best eats in MTL. 🍩
I tried the Glacé & the Boston-both were so delicious 😋💛. I would have loved to try all the flavors, but with the rain/snow outside 🌧❄? & no car, I had to enjoy them on the spot instead of taking a box for a relaxed tasting 🥲.
Hopefully next time in Canada I can try them all! 🥰🇨🇦
After waiting in line for a really long time, I finally bought a box of donuts!!! 🍩Each one was so sweet, they melted in my mouth.😋 But I don't think I can eat more than one a day. Hahaha😅
