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.

La file qui va jusqu'à l'extérieur n'est pas parce qu'on s'arrache leurs pâtisseries mais plutôt parce que les employés n'ont aucune formation en service à la clientèle. Nous étions 4 clients, 4 employés & cela a pris une quinzaine de minute pour obtenir 2 croissants. Le couple derrière moi a quitté avant de passer sa commande. Les produits sont bons, mais pas exceptionnels comme on tente de nous le faire croire.

Got there right when they were opening there was a lineup to get in. It's a nice little cafe with a few tables & a terrasse at the back. We tried the pistachio, raspberry & hazelnut croissants & chocolatine. It's on the thicker side & not too crispy. There was a hint of pistachio flavour, but it's the one that had the most filling. There was barely any hazelnut filling in the hazelnut one. The raspberry one tasted the best. The little sour taste gave it some freshness. The chocolatine, although it was still warm, was just a bit crispy. The matcha latte was good & the cappuccino was alright. I would go back to try their different desserts though. The staff was super friendly. 👍

Meilleure patisserie de montreal (& surement du monde) d'abord le staff est exceptionnel toujours souriants & ils connaissent bien leurs produits & font de bonnes recommandations. Les patisseries sont incroyables, ca vaut les détours & les retours. Il y en a pour tous les goûts & je n'ai jamais été déçu. C'est frais & c'est bon. Endroit propre & chaleureux. Je recommande à 100%

Ça c'est de la pâtisserie haute gamme. L'harmonie des saveurs, la légèreté des pâtes à chou & feuilletée est un grand plaisir à savourer. Tous comme un vin haut de gamme on doit déguster ces pâtisseries occasionnellement pour éviter à nos papilles de s'habituer.

Les pâtisseries étaient délicieuses. Vraiment parmis les meilleurs de Montréal. Ce n'est pas trop sucré, le goût est recherché & le mélange des saveurs est parfois surprenant mais délicieux. Il n'y avait aucune file quand nous y sommes allés vers 16h. Le point négatif est l'ambiance de la salle à manger qui est un peu froide & manque de chaleur pour y avoir vraiment envie de s'y poser.

Dans les meilleurs pâtisseries de montréal, mission accomplie. Ingrédients de qualités honnêtement c'est excellent. Le croissant au framboise étais tellement bon & un coup de coeur pour la pâtisserie fruit de la passion & chocolat noisette. Je vais retourné pour essayer tous les autres croissant & pâtisserie que je n'es pas pu essayer.

I saw this place on MTL blog, one of the best patisserie places. I can say this was pleasant surprise. 9$ a dessert 🍨. But it is a coffee place also. They have a terrace in the back. Was a pleasant experience. The mango dessert was interesting but I think my favorite was the raspberry cake. Wish there was more variety when I was there. The service was great & very friendly.
