Je veux partager mon agréable expérience au sein du duc de Lorraine. Les gâteaux sont frais & délicieux, le personnel est également très accueillant & attentif. J'étais bien servi par madame Sara Asma. Je recommande vivement cette pour tout les amateurs de pâtisserie française.
Super belle ambiance! Tout est excellent. FORTEMENT recommandé pour un brunch entre amis. Mention spéciale à Jonathan qui a été très agréable & attentionné. Un gros merci de la part de chemise bleue!

My lady took me & made me a Surprise on this wonderful place The experience was very great with a beautiful atmosphere in the outdoor sitting We tried a chicken sandwich with cheese, worth a try. & we also took the cocktail that is in the picture. I highly recommend it.
Un endroit très agréable & un service de qualité. Le personnel est très professionnel. Mention spéciale pour la très jolie MARIE qui nous a servi comme des rois aujourd'hui. Réactive, attentionnée & souriante. Un grand MERCI
Notre expérience avec Mahomet était super bien. Il était vraiment cool il nous a donné une bonne ambiance mais malheureusement dès qu'il est parti on a senti que le service n'était plus aussi efficace que quand il était là. Si vous vous faites servir par lui vous allez avoir un super service!!! He's the best 🔥🔥

I just returned from my long weekend trip to Montreal & am back home in Niagara on the Lake, Ontario & I am compelled to write this review & send a Special Thank you to "Mo" (Mahomet), my wonderful server at the Fabulous Duc De Lorraine!!!! I spent my mornings being pampered at this delightful Bistro with an amazing array of scrumptious pastries, sandwiches & beverages. As a Guest, you can choose to dine inside the Bistro or outside on the patio which offered scenic views of the Observatoire & a small park lined with tables & chairs along side the Parkway under the shade of the trees. I choose the patio & indulged in a Flat Croissant & on another occassion, the Mille-Feuille creme patissiere & also treated myself to the Croque-Monsieur sandwich complimented with a side salad which was a match made in heaven! All while I enjoyed sipping on a Cappuccino & also sampled the Cafe Latte. Unfortunately, my spoken French is not at the level I would like it to be, but the staff were accomodating & "Mo", heightened my overall experience with his genuine kindness, care, thoughtful suggestions & welcoming sense of humor! I have already made plans to return to Montreal in the next month just so I can revisit the menu at Duc De Lorraine, which I am confident will not disappoint!!!!! Merci Beaucoup mes Amies! Until next time.............
Le lieu est sympa & très propre. L'accueil est chaleureux, c'est pour cela j'ai mis 4 étoiles. J'ai pris 2 baba au rhum super bien présenté, mais n'est pas léger comme un nuage !!! En plus après avoir payé plus cher que les autres pâtisseries pour quelque chose de... Ok. Je l'ai imaginé extraordinaire mais ce n'est même pas le cas... Déçue!
The pastries were outstanding. Been wanting to try to croissant roll for a while now, & it did not disappoint. Will definitely go back when I'm in the area for lunch as the food the waiters were carrying looked amazing. I give the pastries a 9.2/10
Superbe expérience! La terrasse est absolument magnifique & le décors est vraiment bien pensé. Nous avons eu la chance de goûter un peu de tout afin d'explorer le menu & les nouveautés. C'est absolument une expérience unique! Une mention à notre serveur, Mo, pour son super travail & ses conseils. Nous recommandons d'essayer cette pâtisserie lors des célébrations afin d'avoir une belle ambiance.
Rafaad was our server & he was absolutely amazing. He made our experience worth the drive from Ottawa. We had a great time here & will definitely be back! Thanks Rafaad
