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.

Personally, I was a bit disappointed. Had the pistachio croissant, raspberry croissant, the lemon yuzu tart & the paris brest. The croissants are dense & not crispy, they are more of a support for the cream than good on their own. The pistachio cream is a bit too bland for my taste & not very flavorful, but good quality overall. I preferred the raspberry. As for the paris brest, the praline cream tasted overwhelmingly of butter & so was the texture. It was okay, the one at'la bête au pain' is much better. The lemon tart was pretty good, they even infuse the meringue with citrus & there is also some sort of cakey layer between the meringue & the curd. Overall, nice to try once but would not return. Best pistachio croissant is at Florence café in Saint Henri

Got up early on a Saturday & waited in line to see what the hype was about. They've been selling out only a couple hours after opening, so I was expecting something quite extraordinary. While everything was good & the quality was nice, I don't think it's worth getting there before it opens to wait in line. Don't get me wrong, it's very good, but it's nothing crazy.

Très,très déçu. J'ai lu un article en ligne "L'une des meilleures pâtisserie au monde" & j'ai décidé de l'essayer. Les desserts sont très chers à 9$ & les croissants sont à 3,5$. Si c'est bon, il n'y a pas de problème. L'aspect du dessert n'a pas suscité mon envie de le manger. J'ai acheté un croissant car l'aspect n'était pas mauvais, mais le goût était décevant si vous le vendez 3,5$, il faudrait au moins mettre assez de beurre , l'âme du coissant c'est le beurre... Prix qualité Je donne 2 étoiles

Avant que cela devienne hype, les croissants étaient bien garnis. Repris 2 fois depuis la hype du « meilleur croissant » & 2 fois déçu, beaucoup moins de crème à l'intérieur. Dommage
