We were greeted by the sweetest & friendliest staff. Everything looks crafted with care, love & time. We tried 3 different pastries & they were all spectacular. Their passion fruit chocolate choux has to be the best dessert i've tried all year. Very few places in montreal stand out in this way. Cannot wait to go back & try their savoury pastries & a few matchas

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!

This shop is the epitome of Japan hidden on a side street in the Plateau. Open kitchen where wares are prepared fresh daily for all to see. Friendly, smiling owner proud of her work. A good variety of not-too-sweet & also savory products that were delicious & unique. Really enjoyed the curry pan & the mango black sesame babka. Vege croquette option also available. You will not regret trying, & a definite repeat!

J'ai goûté à la viennoiserie au matcha: un chef-d'oeuvre. & la dame est très sweet aussi! Que du love. Je retourne n'importe quand

The pastries were ok & a bit too sweet… also the fact they don't let me order with my dog (take out, not staying in) made the experience not so pleasant

Be prepared to line up 45min-1H (we waited 1h)

The bread's quality was great, & the visuals were pleasing, but I got extremely disappointed at the sweetness level of all the pastries. They were all overly sweet. The famous Melon Pan's jam was sickeningly sweet! I felt the sugar throughout my jaw, a complete let down considering they are bakers from Japan, that sweetness level would have been unacceptable in Japan. I never had breads this sweet in Japan.. perhaps they adjusted to match the palates of the locals... but then what's the point?
