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.
Got my husband's birthday dessert here- lemon tartelette for 6. It was exceptional. We will remember this treat as absolutely delicious & perfectly crafted & multi layered.
Amazing pastry, good looking & beautifully crafted. We tried mille feuille with vanilla & raspberry cream, super delicious. Will come back to try others.
Tres belle boutique avec des produits magnifique. Viennoiserie, pâtisserie, tout est au top. Mon coup de coeur sur le kouing aman. Les gateaux etais tres bon. Le service impeccable.
DÉLICIEUX!! Belle pâtisserie situé dans le charmant Vieux-Port de Montréal, pâtisseries de très bonnes qualités, les prix équivalent à la qualité des produits. Ce que vous devez goûter à tout prix c'est leur pâtisserie aux framboises qui est disponible à partir de fin juin!
WOW. LA pâtisserie incontournable à Montréal. Jamais goûté un délice pareil même pas à Paris. J'ai pris le Carré Doré pour 6 personnes & tout le monde était unanime. Seul point à améliorer est l'accueil car la froideur du service ne reflète aucunement la qualité des produits. J'y reviendrai certainement.
