This GEM of a bakery sells authentic japanese pastries, we have been going every saturday since its opening. They come up with brand new dessert pastries every single week, we are always so excited to try them. The savoury ones are a must try, we never get tired of the croquette pain, friend shrimp pain & curry pain. ✨Reminds me of my childhood in tokyo. love lovee the staff always greeting us with a smile too😊

A hidden bakery gem in the Plateau for authentic Japanese-style pastries. We got the matcha melon pan & the ebi fry bun (fried shrimp) - both were delicious. The space is quite small so it's mainly takeout, but there are a couple of wooden benches if you want to sit.

What a lovely matcha bakery!

This place is a beautiful combination of Montreal's slow-paced lifestyle & the delicate artistry of Japanese cakes & pastries. I not only loved the cozy atmosphere, but I was also impressed by the quality of the cakes & drinks.

Everything was thoughtfully prepared, & you can really taste the care in every bite. I will definitely be coming back again & again.

Highly recommended for both locals & tourists looking for a unique & relaxing café experience!

Comète BAKE SHOP is a Top tier Japanese-inspired bakery for Montreal thanks to the gifted Pastry Chef that they have, & that shows in the elite skills on display (high-end pastry artistry, elite textures, elite technique). Excellent service as well.

Very calm & peaceful tiny bakery specializing in Japanese sweet & savoury bakes. I have been several times & always try something new - everything is so good!

I've been to Comète twice & both times the staff were lovely & welcoming. Also appreciate the open kitchen concept & watching them bake.

I love the texture of the buns: soft with a bit of bite & chew. The cookies were my preferred texture of slight crunchy rim with a moist & crumbly centre. All the flavours are more pronounced than what is usually expected of Japanese flavoured pastries that can be too subtle sometimes. It's also not overtly sweet.

I shared a hand poured coffee (on special during weekdays when you buy a dessert) which was smooth & not too bitter. My mom who never drinks black coffee loved it black.

My only critique is the yuzu chocolate bun, the bun itself was little dry.

Highly recommend going early if you want to try one of their viennoiserie as they sell out quick!

Montreal is lucky to have this Japanese bakery. The pastries & the filtered coffee(!) are delicious , & the owners are really lovely.

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 ♥?

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.

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.
