Comète BAKE SHOP is a tiny, well-loved Japanese bakery in a busy area, with an open kitchen and daily prep that give it a fresh, artisanal vibe and a warm, friendly feel from the staff. Reviews highlight a thoughtful balance of not-too-sweet pastries and inventive savory bites, with standouts like curry pan, matcha melon pan, miso cardamom pastries, and croquettes alongside sweet favorites such as mango black sesame babka and yuzu brioche. The textures are often praised, from pillowy breads to delicate confections, and the coffee pairing is appreciated too. Seating is limited and weekends can be crowded, so arriving early or visiting on weekdays is advised. The bakery was temporarily closed due to a fire and has since reopened, much welcomed by regulars. Overall, it comes across as an authentic, charming bakery that draws guests for multiple items, friendly service, and a distinct Japanese influence in a neighborhood setting.
Cozy place run by a wonderful couple - pastries with a Japanese twist are delicious & original. The curry pastry stuffed with ground meat makes for a filling meal. The sesame & mango babka is to die for ♥?
Really impressive place. I took a black sesame cookie & a coffee. Both were excellent, & I was impressed that the coffee was prepared with so much care… a nice touch for sure. My friends took a bit of everything else (shrimp sandwich, yuzu & chocolate brioche) & we enjoyed everything. A unique & calm experience - although I can imagine it must get quite crowded when busy.

Voilà plusieurs mois que je voulais essayer ce pâtisserie & quel délice !
Le melonpan m'a vraiment rappelé ce que j'avais pu goûter au Japon ! Je recommande fortement de prendre plusieurs choses pour tester.
Il y a même quelques places pour s'assoir pour déguster sur place
Very cute Japanese bakery in Le Plateau! Staff is very friendly & cinnamon brioche was delicious. We will come back to try the matcha melon pan. One thing to note, store is small with limited seating.
rien a dire sur les produits qui sont tres bien , les saveurs exemplaires, les portions généreuses, j aimerais juste plus de variété & surtout retrouver les excellents pudding japonais au caramel, a bientôt
The buns are so soft & fluffy. The burger was very flavorful. You can taste each layer, the salad, adds some texture & the sauce is great! It was so good, I finished it in a blink of eye, so I also got their stuffed melon pan, which is super yummy too. I wish I lived closer, so I could go often!
They staff are friendly, nice & respectful too!

Comète & son équipe font du succulentes Patisseries japonaises ; une gemme du Plateau qui fait plaisir de voir ré-ouvrir !!! Je recommande vivement les Cookies au Yuzu ou bien encore la patisserie au Cardamone/Miso.
Tout est excellent & le service toujours chaleureux 😄
So glad they were able to finally reopen. Stopped by at 9:30 on a Saturday morning; zero wait. The owners are so nice, & everything is so delicious. I'm not sure I can pick a favorite - miso cinnamon or chocolate yuzu. Or the curry puff pastry? All perfection
The Comete bake shop on Montreal's rue Fabre in the Plateau used to offer a superb selection of Japanese baked goods. Unfortunately, the bakery is still closed undergoing renovation after a disastrous fire. A very limited selection of Comete's products is available daily from the Kyoto florists on Avenue Mont-Royal half a block beyond Papineau. I honestly wish that Comete would reopen soon & again regale us with its full range of delicious products.
A wonderful little bakery operated by a charming couple & serving original creations. Our favorites are the curry pan, croquet, cardamom & cinnamon pastries, & everything containing matcha. The yuzu juice is amazing. Weekends are extremely busy, so come early or on weekdays.
C'est la 2eme fois que j'y vais & c'est toujours aussi bon & plaisant. Les pâtisseries sont bonnes & généreuse. Certaines personnes les trouvent trop sucrées mais je ne trouve pas. L'équilibre est bon.
La partie salée est vraiment super, ça me rappelle tellement le Japon, un mélange de saveurs toujours aussi bien maîtrisé.
It's an amazing bakery with actual Japanese pastries & breads. I recommend it to anyone & especially those who would want actual Japanese baked goods. The staff are super nice. For now I recommend coming early as they usually run out of items & will close the store early.
Accueille chaleureuse & patisseries vraiment délicieuses & goûteuses, plus particulièrement celle au curry & celle au matcha! 🍵 Très gentils aussi, ils sont venu porter mon drink au Yuzu dehors avec mon chien! :)
Je recommande d'y aller tot car c'est souvent sold out vite 😌
Il faut arriver tôt pour profiter de leur délices!
J'y étais à 11:30 & j'ai pu attraper Le dernier item de la journée.
Mais j'ai bien fait de l'acheter car c'était absolument délicieux
Un financier érable & miso!
Je me promets d'y retourner très bientôt & tôt!!
😉
