Review Summary

Farine & Cacao is widely recognized in Montreal for its visually stunning, artistic, and creatively crafted pastries, chocolates, and viennoiseries. Many visitors praise the balanced, less-sweet flavor profiles and high-quality ingredients, with particular acclaim for the raspberry, pistachio, and gianduja croissants, as well as the yuzu tart. While the service is frequently described as friendly and professional, opinions regarding the value remain divided, as some patrons find the pricing high relative to portion sizes or express disappointment with inconsistent texture and depth of flavor in certain items. Despite mixed reviews regarding overall intensity and complexity, the establishment is often considered a must-visit destination for those who appreciate fine, aesthetically pleasing French-style desserts.

J'achetais mes croissants garni de pistache ils étaient excellents.
Maintenant il le garnissent devant toi y a très peu de garnitures à l'intérieur je trouve ça dommage de mettre autant d'argent sur un croissant peu garni

I found this place while I was walking in the area & I wanted to give a try. Everything on the display looks sooo delicious. I tried the small Lemon pie/ Yuzu & I didn't regret my choice because I knew that it was going to be my place to order for my mom b-day' cake'. The pie was so delicious & not too sweet. There's not too much Yuzu dessert in Montréal. I will be back for sure for my next orde

One of the best Paris-Brest I have ever had, loved the pistache & framboise dessert too. I will definitely be back & try their delicious looking croissants. I also tried their almond croissant & I was delightful not too sweet & very creamy. Great service & pleasant to talk to the staff. Definitely recommend this place & it's worth the price.

The pistachio & Framboise pastry was actually quite good, especially the raspberry ganache having a nice tartness. But for that price & their reputation I was expecting something much better, other patisseries within Montreal are better.
The rest of the flavours are quite sweet, & although the outside of the pastry presents well, the inside is lacking the usual French cake complexity & unique flavours.
On a side note the chocolate pieces on top are clearly very high quality & was a highlight.
