What an incredible surprise! The blueberry pastry was absolutely amazing. The pastry itself was incredibly light & fluffy, & inside was the freshest blueberry jam the perfect taste not sugary & well balanced.

Honestly, everything we tried was insane quality, especially for the price. It costs about the same as any other pastry shop, but the pastries feel truly exceptional. The Paris-Brest, croissants, & every flavour we tried were delicious: pistachio, almond, blueberry, chocolate, & especially the coffee croissant, which was unreal.

This place is most definitely underrated. An absolute gem!

Such a lovely bakery. Everything was fresh, delicious & beautifully made. The blueberry croissant was one of the most delicious pastries I've ever had. Fresh, flaky, & filled with the perfect amount of blueberries. Pain au chocolate was perfect too. The lemon cake was moist & tasty. You can taste the fine quality of butter in every bite. The staff is sweet & welcoming. Must visit when in Montreal

Each of their pastries & cakes is a work of art. The flavors are extraordinary. Your taste buds will be stimulated. I tried the croissants & a few of their cakes. They're all flavorful, original, just the right amount of sweetness, & nothing like what you have tried before. The beautiful croissants look beautiful but there's more into it. My favorite are the gianduja, pistachio & raspberry croissants. The best part is that a few days later, they still taste amazing from my fridge! The staff too is amazing. They appear to be enthusiastic about their products & like to give information.

Heard good things, so paid a visit. Ordered a few pastries, including the Cube au Chocolat & Caramel, the Mangue, Fruit de la Passion, & Noix de Coco, & the Pistache & Framboise. It was difficult to choose because several of them looked interesting. We enjoyed all 3, quite a bit. I loved the Raspberry one, but we both really loved the Chocolate & Caramel cube. I enjoy pastries, & occasionally indulge. I have tried a variety from different locations (including Italian, French, & middle Eastern bakeries), & I can certainly recognize the quality of the pastries from Farine & Cacao. If they aren't the absolute best I've ever had, they're certainly the best I can remember, & certainly, easily, one of the best. A lot of times, pastries look great, but taste kind of generic, or are too sweet - these ones had us both sitting there not speaking, because we were distracted by the flavors & textures. We are going to go back & try some other ones. Thoroughly enjoyable. Highly recommended for those who enjoy fine pastries. Also, the staff were the loveliest people. Very friendly & helpful.

Absolutely stellar experience at Farine & Cacao on Ontario Street! This patisserie-chocolaterie is a true gem in Montreal, offering some of the most beautifully crafted pastries & chocolates you'll find anywhere-inside or outside the city.

What sets Farine & Cacao apart is not just the quality of their sweets, but also the passion behind them. Chef Christian Campos brings global experience & a commitment to minimizing waste & reducing sugar without sacrificing flavor.

The shop has even been recognized internationally, earning a prestigious La Liste Pastry Discovery Gem award-a testament to its world-class offerings.

While the prices are on the higher side, the experience & quality justify the cost for any true pastry lover. The ambiance is cozy & refined, with tables at the back where you can enjoy your treats with a cup of expertly brewed coffee.

If you're looking for a special treat or a memorable spot for afternoon tea, Farine & Cacao is a must-visit. Highly recommended for anyone who appreciates fine pastries, beautiful presentation, & a touch of international flair right here in Montreal.

I have to say I don't understand why they would be on that list that made them famous. Like yes, good ingredients, very food presentation, but had way better pastries & croissants elsewhere. What is really worth mentioning is the excellent customer service it's like being in a hotel, beautiful ambiance but the location is like why r u there?! Also 11$ for a tiny piece of cake is beyond outrageous.
