A beautiful story of gourmet friends and lovers of good bread. It all starts with a simple idea: to make good products at reasonable prices for everyone and for any time of the day. From morning coffee and pure butter croissants to crispy lunchtime sandwiches, generous evening pizzas, and mouth-watering sweet tarts. And let's not forget a wide range of breads kneaded, shaped, and baked on-site. At Ange, whether in France or Quebec, there is something for everyone.
Reviews consistently praise Boulangerie Ange for fresh bread and a wide range of pastries, including croissants, chouquettes, tartelettes, and pain au raisins, as well as tasty sandwiches on crusty bread and good coffee. The setting is bright and welcoming and the staff are often described as friendly with efficient service, making it a good spot for a quick breakfast, lunch, or treat. Some notes mention higher prices and occasional slow or inattentive service, and a few items may not meet every expectation such as sandwiches with little meat or bread that is a touch burnt, but overall quality and freshness remain a highlight. The bakery is considered a go to in downtown Montreal by many for a French style bakery experience and reliable fare.
This is my go-to downtown bakery for a quick breakfast, late lunch, grabbing something for a gathering, or just treating myself to a REALLY good dessert. I've tried a bunch of stuff over the past few months, margherita, pepperoni, & vegetarian pizzas, milk bread, chocolatines, croissants, mini donuts, & some desserts that I don't know the names. Cheesecake is one of my favorites here!! They never let me down. The employees are welcoming & nice. My bad I know their faces more than their names, but shout out to Doua!

Boulangerie Ange is my new go-to for bakery bliss. The croissants are ultra-flaky & buttery, the baguettes crackle when you tear them, & the pastries (hello, fruit tarts) taste as good as they look. Loved the sandwiches on freshly baked bread & a smooth coffee to match. The space is bright & welcoming, staff are friendly, & prices feel fair for the quality. Perfect for a quick breakfast, a treat with friends, or grabbing a warm loaf to take home-if it survives the ride!
We stopped in for a quick lunch (sandwiches & dessert). I ordered the pan bagnat, a Nice-style tuna number I've had a thousand times in southern France. Salty, oily, honest.
But this version came with a surprise. Mid-bite, I hit something soft, elastic. I pulled it out, & there it was: a used finger BAND-AID.
Straight from someone else's hand into my mouth.Let that sink in: a BAND-AID. In. My. Sandwich.
To the manager's credit, she didn't flinch. Apologized immediately, reimbursed the entire meal, & told us the food is made off-site in a central kitchen. She assured us she'd raise hell with the supplier. She owned it & I respect that. But even with that responsibility taken, there's no coming back from this.
This wasn't some back-alley food stall in Bangkok where you expect the unexpected. This was a corporate operation (Ange is a chain), a system that's supposed to run with standards & controls. That's what makes it worse. This didn't just slip through the cracks. The cracks are the system.
Nothing has ever turned my stomach like this. Ange Bakery? Never again. Industrial food at its most careless.
Early open (7am), bakery, sandwiches, lunch, cafe THE Best opition for early morning bite. Recommend! Bright, not busy, wheelchair/stroller friendly. Outdoor seating. Gorgeous view & easy date/social location.
Absolutely love this spot! Boulangerie Ange at Humaniti on Viger Street is modern, bright, & welcoming, perfect for a quick coffee break or a casual meet-up.
Their selection of breads, viennoiseries, & sandwiches is excellent. You can tell they care about quality ingredients & fresh preparation. The croissants are buttery & flaky, the sourdough is top-notch, & their pizza slices are a surprisingly great lunch option.
Service has always been friendly & efficient, even during the busier morning rush. Plus, it's great to see a bakery maintain high standard while keeping prices reasonable.
Highly recommend stopping by if you're in the area or looking for a new favorite bakery downtown!
Hands down, my favorite bakery in Montreal. I make a point to stop by every time I'm in town-& it never disappoints.
The almond croissants are out of this world: perfectly flaky, rich, & just the right amount of sweetness. Their fresh bread is amazing too, & the quiche makes for the perfect breakfast-light, flavorful, & satisfying.
& let's not forget the coffee-strong, smooth, & a perfect match for anything on the menu.
Incredible quality, cozy atmosphere, & consistently great service. A must-visit if you're in Montreal!

One of the best, if not THE best bakery in downtown Montreal with the best prices.
Authentic croissants & pastries, solid bread & sandwiche options. I go there on a weekly. Highly highly recommend!
Excellent bakery+ plenty of options, freshly baked, & fast service. Seating inside in a nice ambiance to enjoy your pastry or drink as well. This chain is also in France.
