Dans l’ensemble, Hof Kelsten est vu comme une boulangerie de référence à Montréal, réputée pour ses croissants beurrés et croustillants, ses babkas et ses viennoiseries variées ainsi que pour des créations savoureuses comme le zaatar torsade et d’autres pâtisseries originales. La fraîcheur, la qualité et le savoir-faire technique sont largement soulignés et de nombreux critiques mentionnent que les produits restent exceptionnels semaine après semaine; certains clament que le meilleur babka part rapidement et qu’il faut venir tôt pour en profiter. Le menu propose aussi des soupes de matzoh ball et des sandwiches de brisket et des options sucrées et salées qui plaisent, bien que le choix de places pour manger soit parfois limité et que l’ambiance ou le service puissent varier selon les expériences. Des remarques pointent aussi des prix élevés et des critiques sur le service client, mais l’ensemble des avis convergent vers la qualité et l’originalité des produits qui invitent à revenir pour découvrir de nouvelles saveurs.
I finally got to try this specialty bakery & it did not disappoint. Everything was fresh & delicious, from the pastries to the sandwiches & even the coffee was well prepared. Service was quick & welcoming. Will definitely be back!
Very good selection of baked goods. The Babka is very well made but you need to get there early to get one as they fly off the shelves. Good coffee, the staff does a very good job & is always courteous & friendly. One of my go-to stops whenever I am in Montreal.
I believe I got the ricotta & zaatar pastry which was DIVINE. I've gotten bread here too & it's always been great. The coffee, however, isn't the greatest but definitely come here for the food!
I can see why this is one of the best bakeries in Montreal. The service as I was greeted was exceptional, probably one of the friendliest. I tried their samples, as well as one sweet (cinnamon danish) & one savoury pastry (cheese & spinach danish) . Fresh & delicious. What surprised me was the coffee - it was one of the best lattes I've had. Will definitely be coming back.
Best oatmeal cookies in Montreal! This hidden little bakery on the Plateau makes exquisite pastries with a friendly smile, & I'm happy to see that it's become very popular recently for coffee or lunch, which is well deserved. Try their white "milk" bread!
I enjoyed the coffee so much! It's been a while since I had a latte with acidity. Milk foam on top & latte art was perfect. The cafe smelled of fresh bread! I tried the baguette, croissant, & a few pastries; they were good overall. I had hoped the croissant would be a bit more crunchy, but the overall experience was nice with friendly staff. Highly recommend

Loved stopping in here. Was excited to see Borscht on the menu & it did NOT disappoint. Being from Ukrainian descent, I've eaten a fair amount of borscht, however, I've never tried a version with what seemed like pickled beets. It was phenomenal with the pickled beets - Hof's borscht is thick & has a tinge of vinegar & was served with sour cream on top (so they know what they're doing). Will be back for the borscht for sure. We also tried the cheese danish which was awesome, the homemade iced tea (which my husband describes as tasting like jelly beans), & bought a loaf of challah to bring home (which also paired well with the soup!). The coffee was unfortunately underwhelming for me, a bit too acidic for my personal preference. The interior of the space is a bit industrial yet cozy, it was nice to pass some time on a rainy day with a coffee & soup. Will absolutely be back.
Absolutely superb! Everything was beyond expectations. The amandine was so perfect it cannot have existed. The coffee was clean, complex, but still fairly caramelly for a third wave cup. The barista didn't just hate me, she was clearly astrally projecting while I was talking. 10/10. I've always liked montreal, but now I'm strongly considering moving there on a stolen snowmobile if/when Trump steals the 2024 election!
