Review Summary

Reviews describe Chez Potier as a refined pastry destination where artful presentation meets exceptional taste, and the shop doubles as an epicerie gourmande with European goods. Pastries such as croissants, mille feuille, fraisier, galette des rois, amandines and canneles are repeatedly praised for quality and texture, with many calling the selection among the best in Montreal or even North America. Standouts include the lemon tart, a rose lychee dessert, and other creations, while the in house hot chocolate and coffee receive high marks. The space is clean, elegant and inviting, though seating is limited and take out is often recommended. Service can vary, with some reviewers finding staff friendly and attentive and others noting a chilly or overly formal tone on certain visits. Prices are high but described as worth it for the quality, and changes to portions have drawn mixed reactions; there is also a rare safety concern noted about a cake. Overall, this destination is seen as a standout pastry spot that many return to for pastry connoisseurship and gift shopping alike.

I love this place because it adds a very fancy feeling to that quartier/Griffintown because lots of my favourite restaurants are there so every time I can just pass by & buy croissants for next morning. Of course the pastries are so frenchy & so authentic. A good carry on of the traditions I love it! 🥰

Potier ce n'est pas seulement une épicerie fine mais très fine & aussi une pâtisserie, boulangerie & sandwicherie! Tous ces produits se préparent chez eux! Ils ont beaucoup de variétés différentes. La fille était très sympa, accueillante & chaleureuse, & ça nous encourage de devenir pour leur excellent service client! J'adore leur décoration d'intérieur, spacieuse & lumineuse surtout propre & bien organisée👌🏻

Sans aucun doute une des meilleures pâtisseries en ville. Je retournerais essayer plus de choses. Je me questionne sur le rapport qualité prix cependant, il me semble qu'ils se permettent une marge particulièrement élevée! Je comprends que c'est du luxe mais quand même, d'autres très bon endroits en ville sont un peu plus raisonnable à ce niveau !

As an average guy who enjoys good food, here's my HONEST take: The food is good, but... It doesn't quite offer a game-changing taste experience. The utensils are fancy but not very practical; the fork was "too small" for cracking into some of the dishes. While everything we tried looked appealing, the flavors were quite familiar. Unfortunately, we didn't have a moment of "WOW, this is new," which was a bit disappointing given the rave reviews. Don't get me wrong; the food tasted great & we enjoyed each bite. However, for the price & expectations set, there are plenty of excellent alternatives in Old Port. The service was great, & the location was cozy, bright, & inviting. We will definitely give it another try, but based on this first experience, we've had better for the same price & quality elsewhere. This place seems more like a treat-yourself spot, & I understand that appeal. I still recommend it because you might discover something you love, but for me, it was simply a good experience.

The pastries were so good. More on the pricier side but well worth it! I would go back to try their other pastries. They also have a lot of French products you can buy which you can't find elsewhere. Highly recommend for anyone to try it if you appreciate good quality pastries & don't mind spending a little more.

Le goût du bonheur : leurs gateaux sont véritablement exquis ! Nous les avons tous testés : les produits sont frais, rien n'est trop sucré, les mélanges de saveurs parfait.

Excellentes pâtisseries! La tarte au citron est délicieuse, superbement équilibrée, ce qui n'est pas toujours le cas dans les autres pâtisseries.

Excellente pâtisserie ! Les gâteaux proposés varient en fonction de la saison. La boulangerie est bonne aussi. C'est aussi une petite épicerie avec des produits sélectionnés de qualité

Literally amazing & delicate desserts. Tried the classic Paris brest & millefuille. Also recommend the croissant with strawberry compote inside.

Quelque peu déçue. Recommandation récurrente parmi les meilleures pâtisseries de Montréal soit disant. J'ai pris presque toutes leurs pâtisseries individuelles Le baba au rhum aurait été parfait avec la moitié du rhum 😅, la tarte au citron était exquise mais les desserts aux fraises étaient ponctués d'une acidité surprenante & malvenue provenant des fraises🥲. Pour finir sur une note plus douce, le Summer & le flan ont été appréciés 😊
