Très belle découverte! J'ai pris le croissant & le kouingn-amann, c'était excellent :). Prix raisonnables aussi!

Seriously one of the best croissants & chocolatines in Montreal. I've been coming here for croissants & chocolatines since it opened almost 15 years ago.
Across the years, the size of the viennoiseries decreased due to shrinklation. They used to be huge! However, at least the taste is still the same.
It's a taste of comfort & home to me. Would highly recommend to those who like butter croissants! Thank you for all those years!
Their sandwiches, chouquettes & burger buns are also solid.

Edit #1:
I've been a loyal patron since I discovered it via Google. I have absolutely no complaints. Prices are more than reasonable given the quality of their product. I gift my neighbours & friends their wares, & they all are more than appreciative, lauding especially the chocolatins & croissants. I freeze all of what I personally consume, as I am a widower living alone. I've created a cheese & smoked back bacon breakfast croissant that is absolutely phenomenal. Six minutes from freezer to plate in a 425° oven. It's sinfully delicious. I have enjoyed many of their baguettes & breads, without disappointment. Freezing & rejuvenating them with a spray of water & a hot oven makes them return to their freshly baked state.
A café, well rated, recently opened in my neighbourhood. I decided to try a few of their baked wares. This morning I made my cheese/bacon concoction & it was disappointing. The croissant was large, but quite mealy & without any butter flavour. It was also more expensive. I should have known better.'If it ain't broke don't fix it.' The grass is definitely not greener on the other side. Other than relocating to Paris or Lyon, Chez Fred will earn my undying patronage forever.
After reading boulangerie Chez Fred reviews on Google, I thought I'd give it a try, as I would be in the neighborhood. I bought some croissants, choclatines, viennoiseres & bread to share with my friends. Croissants had a great flaky crust & a buttery, doughy & chewy consistency. Not quite the flaky, buttery layers of dough that I usually get in Paris, but equally enjoyable in another sense. The choclatine dough had similar qualities, & it compared quite favorably to another of my favorite Montréal bakeries. I gave away all the rest, so I'll have to await feedback from the recipients. So far, I'm impressed & will likely be spoiling some more friends with treats in which they wouldn't otherwise indulge.

Véritables croissants au BEURRE. Les croissants (comme les chocolatines) sont gros, la pâte est très feuilletée & craquante, vous laisserez des miettes partout. 😇
Pour moi, ce sont les meilleurs croissants à Montréal.

They ran out of their apparently popular almond croissants, but their plain ones are quite good. The simple egg & cheese sandwich was the best! Chou options were alright

Decided to try out the local places in the neighborhood & found this one. I liked the environment & the service, however the croissant & the latte I had were disappointing. I probably did not get a croissant from a fresh batch so I will have to come back another time since it was a bit dry

The best French bakery! You gotta order the croissants online in advance because they sell out super fast.

Les sandwiches au poulet avec la complotée d'oignons sont très bons (la baguette est une véritable baguette comme on les fait en France). Les croissants aux amandes aussi 😍 Je recommande chaudement cette boulangerie !

Chez Fred used to have the best pastries in Montréal without a doubt. Now, like many other similar places, it's hit or miss. Croissants & chocolatines can be bready & dry. An almond croissant was hard. The service was never great but the quality of the product made up for it.

The best almond croissants I've ever had out of the 5-6 popular bakeries in Montreal. The almond filling is very custardy & doesn't have the artificial almond flavoring that I sometimes tasted in an almond croissant. Their butter croissants are lacking a little bit of flakiness, but are very buttery so they are still pretty decent overall.

I've passed by Chez Fred many times & finally decided to try them out; wish I would've tried them sooner! Great sourdough bread! & we lived the croissant breakfast sandwich. The place has a nice & calm atmosphere & truly focuses on the art of breadmaking.
