Review Summary

Reviews depict Boulangerie Cheskie as a bright, clean, old school kosher bakery with a wide, appealing range of Jewish pastries and breads, where the chocolate babka and cheese crowns are repeatedly praised as standout items and the place is seen as a must visit in Montreal, often accompanied by long lines that reflect its popularity. Prices are generally described as reasonable for the quality, and staff are noted as friendly and efficient in many visits, though some reviews mention occasional unfriendly service or language barriers. The space and energy are described as welcoming, with mentions of a newer modern location, busy crowds, and limited seating. While many desserts are described as rich, sweet, and indulgent, a few items are noted to be overly sweet or doughy or not as fresh in rare cases, but overall the babka, cheese crowns, rugelach, cheesecake, challah and other pastries are celebrated as among the best, making it a standout stop for traditional Jewish baked goods in the city.

I had a friend who hyped up this bakery & their small cheesecakes. When I bought three of their cheesecake crowns, all of them were really dry & it didn't have that savory strong cheesecake flavour. Didn't live up to the hype when I visited.

Babka is one of the best I've ever tried, they have chocolate, cheese & cinnamon. Highly suggest getting'at least' 1 of each to try! Super fast, in & out kind of place.

Get the chocolate babka & then cottage cheese one or cottage cheese crowns.
It's not a fine patisserie, but they are good at what they specialize. Babkas are top!

Was craving babka & this bakery was surprisingly still open in the evening. We got the babka loaf, a chocolate cheesecake muffin, & a rectangular cheesecake piece in the fridge section. The babka was pretty good, although I personally prefer the fragrance of the Montreal Kosher Bakery's one. The other desserts were just basic, mostly only tasting sweet. Service was just ok, employees were speaking Spanish to each other & not that friendly.

The bakery itself is in a very bright & modern looking space.

The chocolate covered cheesecake was 10/10 for us. We haven't had time to try the rest, but we bought 3 mini cheesecakes, 2 large cookies, a big loaf of brown bread & a large chocolate cone filled with whipped cream $23 very reasonable imho

Was wowed by the babka (much messier than more chocolate-y than supermarket babka) & challah. Had some cheesecake like pastries that were also good

Amazing kosher iconic bakery. Chocolate babka & mini chocolate cheesecakes are mouth watering. Challahs & rum balls are so yummy. Not to be missed!

My wife & I discovered a sweet slice of heaven while we were exploring Rue Bernard in Outremont named, Boulangerie Cheskie. This small bakery was full of customers patiently waiting to be served by the friendly staff behind the counter. There was a huge variety of baked goods & pastries to choose from, but our biggest problem was trying not to buy everything in the store because it all looked so delicious. We finally settled on some eye-catching Cheese Muffins & a decadent Chocolate Babka. These delicacies were absolutely scrumptious & we will definitely be returning for some more heavenly delights.

Totally worth the stop. Classic Eastern European baked goods done right-no frills, just quality. The babka & cheese crown were great, but the cheesecake was incredible. Best I've had-so good I bought three!

A little bakery filled with wonderful goodies for a very reasonable price! I loved the cheese crown & the apple cake, but found rugelahs to be a bit too sweet (even though I've got such a sweet tooth!). Still, I'd love to go back to try other items! The servers were not friendly or helpful - they looked rather bored/tired. Could it be that I annoyed them because I obviously didn't fit in + wanted to ask questions? I wonder.

There's magic being made in that kitchen. I've been going for years & not only do they never disappoint, but they exceed expectations. The pastries are top drawer. I'm partial to the cheese crowns, but it really is l'embarras du choix as I wait to order. The onion crackers have always proved a hit, too. Whenever I have brought them to a gathering, everyone just kept returning additively for more. Montreal is very lucky to have Cheskie. But, now that I heard how Trump's victory was celebrated by free cookies to customers, I will not be going back.

J'adore ! Je recommande surtout le rugelach aux graines de pavot & les cheese crowns. Les prix sont très justes aussi

The absolute best babka on the planet. There's a lineup for a reason & it's worth every single minute of waiting. Pastries are fresh & delicious, the cheesecake crowns are to die for, & their chocolate rugellach is out of this world. Actually, everything there is delicious! Looking forward to the holidays just for their honey cake. It's the best I've ever had. Does not disappoint ever!
