Review Summary

Carlota Boulangerie Mexicaine earns strong praise for authentic Mexican pastries, with rosca de Reyes, goyave pastries, conchas, pan de muerto, tamales, and horchata repeatedly noted for freshness, flavor, and quality. The offerings are described as light and flaky with clear respect for traditional flavors, and the bakery is celebrated for vibrant variety and aromas that feel like a taste of Mexico in Montreal. However a few reviews report dryness and uneven quality in the rosca de reyes this year, and some note that prices are high but worth it for the craftsmanship. Service is described as warm, friendly and knowledgeable, with staff offering helpful recommendations and tasting guidance. Limited or no seating inside is a common caveat, making it more of a takeout destination, though the overall experience and energy remain highly regarded. Overall, the bakery is seen as a standout and a must visit for those seeking authentic Mexican baked goods in the area.

I've been coming to this place for over quite some time now, & I love it every single time. As a Mexican who has lived here for over 12 years, & after trying tamales & conchas all over the city, these are by far the most authentic & flavorful. Every time I go, the bread is fresh & the oaxacan hot chocolate is fantastic.
I also love walking in & hearing Spanish being spoken, as well as the warm, familiar sound of strong Spanish accents. It feels like being transported to Mexico. That's how magical this little, cozy boulangerie is.
I particularly appreciate that this place is woman owned & that she hires a diverse workforce & she is transparent about her locally sourced ingredients & recipes. After being a loyal customer for a while, I recently attended one of her pan de muerto workshops with my son, & we absolutely loved it. It wasn't just a baking class; it was also a history lesson with a dose of food chemistry & more. It lasted four hours & was worth every penny.
& to those leaving negative reviews, it's disheartening to see people with Hispanic last names trying to diminish a fellow Hispanic's business in a world where authenticity is scarce. Ignore the bad reviews , get your tamal, order your dirty horchata (coffee with horchata) & buy happy! Park by the high school, no there's no seating (but who cares?! You are there for the food not for the sitting) & as you would with every other bakery go there early! Sharing a pic of the inside of my bread for those who say her bread is bad. It isn't in my eyes.

Siempre compro mis panes aquí para eventos especiales como día de muertos, rosca de reyes, tengo que admitir que está vez le falto mucho a mi pan de muerto, estuvo seco y realmente quede decepcionada ya que antes era mejor, ojalá mejoren y no pierdan su calidad que les caracteriza, sobre tiempos de entrega y amabilidad todo fue perfecto solo el sabor y la textura a mejora

Je passe mes journées à communiquer en espagnol avec collègues & ami(e)s & je voulais un petit quelque chose à ramener au bureau pour el Día de los Muertos & tous ont été enchantés de goûter la saveur du Mexique! Service impeccable & vous pouvez être sûrs que tout vous tentera de goûter!🤤

Personnel chaleureux & souriant. Iels donnent de très bonnes recommandations & connaissent leurs produits.
J'y suis allé à deux reprises cette semaine, & je ne compte pas arrêtez de venir.
Je conseille fortement le roulé dulche de leche. Ainsi que leurs brioches pour el dia de los muertos.
Cette pâtisserie en vaut le détour, c'est clairement devenu un incontournable que je vais recommander à mes proches.

Simply a must visit place. The pan dulce is as good if not better than in Mexico (from a mexican). If you are seeing this in October/November go get pan de muerto. Don't walk, run!

I don't know if there are any other Mexican bakeries in Montreal, but I doubt anyone can find anything better than Carlota, their pastries are supreme. I had one of the best Pan de Muerto I've had in my life, not even in Mexico you can find something this good.

J'y retourne souvent pour la danoise goyave-fromage ! Je crois que c'est le pan de muerto de oaxaca (ceux avec les petits visages) sont très bons aussi : moelleux, pas trop sucré & un peu épicé.

Me recomendaron esta panadería y luego la seguí en Instagram. Compré pan de muerto para mi altar y, al probarlo, nos encantó. Los panes rellenos de crema con tequila, calabaza y chocolate fueron nuestros favoritos. ¡Definitivamente volveremos!

Exquisito Pan de muerto. Tambien me encanto su cuernito con cajeta. Lastima que no tenian bisquets ni panque cuando pase.

Super amables las chicas, excelentes recomendaciones, mi latte estuvo súper rico y me hizo una linda figurita, el servicio fue rápido, y realmente había una línea de espera desde que llegué. Me llevé la sorpresa que también había diferentes sabores de tamales y salsas. Yo creía que solo era repostería. Me recomendaron pan de muerto relleno de una crema pastelera con tequila y otros ingredientes que claro compré para compartir nuestra bonita tradición en el trabajo y se puede refrigerar. No podía pedir más 💖Gracias !

We did a workshop on how to make Pan de Muerto & it was a really beautiful experience. Mariana, the owner, is delightful & not only makes the experience of learning baking fun, but also explains the Mexican history & symbolism behind what you are making. Highly recommend. Our bread turned out beautiful & delicious.

A little piece of Mexico in Montreal! ❤️ What a delicious bread! I tried the pan de muerto, it was definitely like eating it in Mexico, the flavor is amazing, extremely soft. I tried the chocolate one which was amazing. I highly recommend this place. I would definitely go back to try the other options. Ale was at the counter, she is amazing! It was my first time there, she was very friendly & guided me through the options. Great attitude!✨

Ok, here I go... After at least half a dozen visits to this wonderful place, here is my review. Full disclosure, I am Latino & in love with all things from Mexico. Some flavors here are definitely triggers to my Venezuelan sweet tooth. This small, women owned business, welcoming & neat Mexican bakery is the real representation here in Montreal of the best bakery & boulangerie currently happening in vibrant Mexico City. Not only, Mariana, the owner & brilliant mind behind Carlota, is a real Mexican baker but also she is literally part of a kind of Royalty among bakers back home. She carried with her -from Mexico to Canada- years of experience in the global phenomenon that is now Panadería Rosetta. Here in Carlota you will have the best CONCHAS in town. Their bread is the real thing: baked in place with a hundred years old sourdough starter. Bring home a Telera bread & you will have the best panini ever. She also has a beautiful & delicious brioche made with mole. My favorite! Their guava danish is a must. They also have a delicacy called Garibaldi, very difficult to have outside Mexico. If they have them in your next visit, do yourself a favor & buy two. Honestly everything there is an excellent choice. Do not be afraid to ask questions, the service is outstanding. Their horchata is authentic & very refreshing. Great coffee. Pantry items from Mexico available (vanilla, chocolate, coffee beans). Multiple bus lines nearby. A place to visit multiple times. Oh, I forgot, they will have PAN DE MUERTO since middle September, a delicacy only normally available during October. I am already dying to try their famous one made with Mezcal. Viva el Pan dulce! Viva México!

Best pan de muerto ever ! & excellent bread even better than in México. But I wish they were always open & that they always accepted card payment. The lack of consistency can only hurt this business. People are friendly & the place is nice. But it pisses me off so much that I have gone there & 8 out of 10 times are closed ... even the days they are suppose to be open. & The few times they are open there has been a huge line up, no where to park , no produce , or no INTERAC . Almost as if they don't want to sell. Such a shame for such a great bakery & a great chef. The other day I wanted to promote Carlotas bread with my job colleagues by bringing some bread ... but to my surprise closed again ... & on a Wednesday. I live very far & to waste time & gas & be disappointed & frustrated thinking about the bread & savoiring it on my mind ... find parking & freeze myself .... & noooo bread 😥 bakery closed

Una boulangerie extraordinaria en una ciudad donde hay unas cuantas boulangeries extraordinarias. El cuidado, el gusto y el perfeccionismo de Mariana y su equipo se notan en todo. El pan de muerto tradicional en Carlota es el mejor pan dulce que he comido en mi vida.
