La Cave à Manger is a tiny yet highly praised bakery tucked into Old Montreal with a cozy, intimate vibe and a small seating area, where pastries are repeatedly described as flaky, buttery and addictive. Standouts include the pistachio roll, croissant eclairs, croissants and the tiramisu croissant roll, along with beloved bagels and ham and cheese croissant, and the space often earns praise for its breads and creative offerings; the pistachio croissant and red velvet croissant are frequently cited as among the best in town. The service is consistently friendly and attentive, with staff going the extra mile, though some notes mention prices being on the high side for the portions and occasional inconsistencies in flavor. The space is small and sometimes crowded, with outdoor seating in good weather, and the basement location adds rustic charm. Overall, La Cave à Manger stands out as a must visit for pastry lovers in the Old Port, delivering high quality baked goods and a welcoming atmosphere, with many reviewers already planning a return.

A tiny place that we decided to stop by. We got 2 items, a cookie & a croissant. Both were really great & tasted fresh. The place is small & not a massive amount of stuff to choose from, but whatever is available will be really good & fresh. I would definitely consider coming back for a quick bite if I'm ever in the area.

Probably the best pastries I've ever had. The man that served the pastries had top tier customer service to start off. But most importantly, wow… these pastries are done so perfectly. The ONLY sad thing about this place is how there is limited dine in space, which is understandable. But honestly, the fact that the pastries are so amazing makes up for it. Definitely worth driving here for!

j'ai pris des rolls & des créclaires, c'est chère mais y'a la qualité qui va avec. Seuil hic j'ai appelé pour commander a l'avance car c'est a 45minutes de chez moi & j'ai u un non sec sans explications.

Hidden below the market, this place seems like a hole in the wall kinda hidden gem Tried the croissant roll here & it was so good . The crust of the croissant is so nice & crispy but it can be abit jelat eating them all by yourself. Best to share it with people :)

Such a great all around space & vibe. The pastries are big & baked to a wonderful texture with a slightly crisp outer layer & very fluffy interior. All made right there behind the counter. Also recommend the matcha hot chocolate. Very matcha forward & delightful, to not mention a beautiful color.

This place is ridiculously expensive. Almost $10 for a croissant is insane, but honestly, it's worth it. The almond chocolatine is one of the best pastries I've ever had. Definitely worth a visit for a splurge on a sweet treat. It's busy & crowded & there's not much room to sit down in the winter.
