La Cave à Manger is a highly regarded bakery in Old Montreal, frequently praised for its high-quality pastries, notably its signature filled croissant rolls, buttery croissants, and fresh bread. While many visitors consider it a hidden gem offering an authentic European experience with friendly service and an inviting atmosphere, some reviews note that the space is small, the prices can be high, and consistency in flavor or freshness varies. The bakery also offers savory options like sandwiches and pizza, alongside coffee and wine, with many guests recommending the outdoor seating area despite occasional issues with local wildlife.
Not surprisingly, I am back here for the second morning in a row. La Cave a Manger is a tiny, unassuming bakery that may well be the best find of my two week sojourn in Canada. I stumbled upon wonderfully fresh & tasty oceanside seafood in Newfoundland, an astonishing 7-course tasting menu on the Cabot Trail in Cape Breton, & oysters & a panko crusted haddock burger done perfectly on Prince Edward Island, but the pastries & bread here are simply world-class. At the risk of slipping into a food coma today, I am back to have another three pastries here & to take away at least six croissants & a couple loaves of bread. The service has been warm, friendly, & responsive each time I have been here, & it has both a cute little seating area inside & a larger patio space outside. I will be back.
We came for the croissants, & they were fantastic! Whike our trip was crpissant-centric; there was a broad selection of items in the shop along with the baked goods. When we arrived, we were unsure about what to order but the staff were very patient & kind. Not much space inside the boulangerie, but a lovely patio seating area just outside.

This is what you can expect from French bakery & coffee shop! Nice, welcome, & down to earth staff, which they love their job. There is an option to eat-out or stay in. However, if it is gloomy day, I would suggest outside because of stone-carpet street aside. They offer Breads & Pastries, using organic flour & filtered waterlog fermentation process to enhance flavor & digestibility, as well as pepperoni pizza, Natural Wines. Strongly recommended!
If you don't look carefully, you will completely miss out on this place. It's a must visit, the croissants are not cheap, but they are..... How should I say it.... HEAVEN. Ordered the pistachio croissant.
Nous avions des attentes élevé pour cet endroit. Le service n'était pas présent, nous avons essayé le roll pistache (goûte beaucoup plus le chocolat blanc que la pistache), il était bon. On a aussi pris le croissant/biscuit, assez ordinaire. Prix ne vaut pas ce que c'est, 11$ plus tip chaque viennoiserie. La terrasse est jolie.
I tried a rounded matcha croissant which was really good, there's a little terrase to eat & in the night it looks really nice. I would go again to try other things.
