Le fraisier in the summer is my favorite. There is zéro compromise here. This is on the same level as the best of the Best in France. The quality remains consistent year after year. The amandines are the best I had anywhere in the world.
We'd been wanting to visit Chez Potier for quite some time, & we finally had the chance to stop by - it was absolutely worth it. The moment you walk in, you can tell this is a place that takes pride in what it offers. The display counters are beautifully arranged, showcasing an impressive selection of high-end pastries & baked goods that look as good as they taste.
The bakery section, in particular, is wonderful. Everything feels refined & crafted with care, from the presentation to the textures. The lemon tart stood out as truly exceptional - perfectly balanced between sweetness & tartness, with a delicate crust that melts in your mouth.
The staff were friendly & professional, adding to the pleasant atmosphere. The space itself is clean, elegant, & inviting - you can easily see why it's so well-regarded.
Overall, Chez Potier offers a refined yet welcoming experience, perfect for anyone who appreciates quality pastries & attention to detail. We'll definitely be back.
Chez Potier is not your average café-this place *levels up* the pastry experience in every way. The moment you walk in, you feel the refined yet welcoming vibe that sets the tone for what's to come. It's a beautifully curated space that blends the elegance of a European pastry boutique with the warm charm of a local favorite.
The pastry selection is nothing short of stunning-each piece genuinely looks like a work of art. I tried their in-house hot chocolate & was impressed by the rich flavor. You can really taste the quality cocoa, though I personally would've preferred it less frothy & a touch darker. That said, it was still a delight to sip.
I paired the hot chocolate with a strawberry cream pastry that showcased real craftsmanship. It featured four distinct layers: a silky vanilla cream on top that was absolutely decadent, followed by a refreshing middle layer of strawberry accented with fresh mint, & finished with a touch of fresh strawberry on the side. The base was a little firmer & drier than I'd like, but it didn't take away from the overall flavor, which was still thoughtfully composed & delicious.
Service here deserves a shoutout-attentive, knowledgeable, & warm. Their recommendations were spot-on, & it's clear they take pride in what they do. Beyond pastries & coffee (which is in-house brewed, by the way), they offer a selection of fine European goods including Italian delicacies, French products, truffle oil, & even caviar.
Chez Potier has a lot to offer & then some. I'm already looking forward to going back & trying more. A must-visit for pastry lovers, café connoisseurs, or anyone looking to indulge in a little edible art.
UPDATE: they reached out to me to apologize for the issues & reimbursed me for the chocolate plate. I ordered a pecan chocolate cake. The cake was delicious & beautifully made. I have had cakes from there before & they have been fabulous. My family has loved the cakes too. So for the quality of the food - I would give 5 stars. However, there were two things on my recent experience that made me remove the two stars: 1) I ordered via the website & given its a milestone for a loved one, I requested a personalized message on the cake (which was 5$). The website states a 40 character maximum so, I took the extra effort to make sure my message was less that than that & submitted the order. The business gave me the courtesy to call me however, they told me my message was too long & they would need me to cut the message down or pay an extra $5 for an additional personalized message. I accepted to cut the message down even though it was not my error & as customer I really shouldn't have had to pay a penny extra for what they promised on their website. I mentioned this to the gentleman at the till when I went to pick up the cake. He accepted my comment but I am unsure as a business if they will do anything about it. If you choose to take the personalized message option when ordering a cake, I'd recommend keeping it shorter than 20 characters or call them to ask them what they can accommodate to not disappoint yourself as a future customer. 2) The actual message was not written to what I would have expected. The message was supposed to be "Aging like fine wine". What the cake seems like its written is "Aging LIME fine wine" & not very very clear. We had a laugh about it & it goes in our books as a funny meme. However, if you are very particular, I would be cautious on the personalized message. I've also shared some photos. I would like to reiterate the cake was fantastic in taste & all my previous experiences here have been decent. The two above points are the reason I took away the 2 other stars.
The patisseries were good, but small & way overpriced. I know many place that offer the same quality (& some better), but half the price. two very small pastries came to $25!!!
Came for some coffee & pastries & they did not disappoint. Amazing treats, great quality & prices were very reasonable. Can't wait to come back
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.
Great find, good quality products & a little touch of class, try the feuilles de Vin, very good, & the croissant are Devin, overall great Spot
Overthetop pastries! Amazing croissants in quality 🥐, it is the best we've ever tried in Montreal arriving from France! Great European imports make it a very good place for souvenir shopping
High level quality cakes & cookies... Ideal for afternoon coffee.Very nice baked goods..more international standard than the provincial Duc de Lorraine cotes des neiges bakery.. & at lower prices..
Amazing cakes! I've tried quite a few patisseries in Montreal & this is one of the best. Expect to pay more for higher quality desserts. Passion fruit cheesecake is my favorite & I don't even like passion fruit that much. Baba au rhum is my second favorite. Pastries are good but are pricier than what you can get in Montreal at a lower price tag.
My family had very nice experience with Chez Potier. We ordered 3 cakes, Matcha latte & Cappuccino. The cakes were very delicate, rich in flavours without being too sweet, you can strongly taste the different layers, they keep a good balance.
We like it very much. The quality of matcha latte is also impressed me.
We like everything about this place. Environment, their customer service & food quality.
