Came to try this. $12 pistachio roll. $4.5 chocolate croissant , the pistachio roll Its very filling, a lot of cream & a-bit pricy. I would suggest to add some zest or lemon pistachio .. that can balance out the cream itself with some zest or citrus. Personal idea only because this is toooo much cream .. can't even finish 1/2 .

I prefer the chocolate croissant.

I ordered the Tropical filled pastry, the chocolat croissant, & I got the orange slush with ice cream in it for drink. The orange slush was a banger at the start but it was good overall: 4.0/5
The chocolat crossiant was honestly carried by the flaky goodness of the pastry but the flavor was also great, just not enough chocolate filling: 4.2/5
Now oh my days, the tropical pastry was worth travelling so far, just actually 5/5 couldn't have been any better, the flavors, the appearance, the breaking of the flakes & the melty filling omd it was gorgeous & To die for, Merci la cave.

The place was the only Boulangerie open by 7am but was worth it. They were make fresh pastries & service was nice. A little slow as the line was piling up & there was no air conditioning on a very hot day/ morning. To be honest the man taking our order was the only one making our coffees & ringing us up at the register.

But we had the chocolate croissants, plain croissants, almond pastries/ croissants, coffee, etc. All were great & I recommend this place! We ended paying more than I thought we would!

I'm not a bakery or croissant person…but wow.

This was one of the most surprising things I ate during my time in Montreal.

Go see the Basilica, walk-through Old Montreal & go down the stairs to this quiet little bakery. Order the chocolate almond croissant & understand it may be the best you ever have.

My partner loves croissants & made sure we had to have this, & I didn't care much for trying it. But now I'm sat in Toronto thinking about the quality & taste of this wonderful pastry.

The chocolate was so smooth, the layers of the croissant were buttery & crunchy where necessary, but with the almond paste within you got these excellently soft bites as well.

What an amazing combination of flavours, textures, & technique all in one. If you can, please make the trip just to try this croissant. I wish I had more time (& stomach space) to try more & will be sure to return if given the opportunity.

Check them out!

Chocolatine amande (crossaint with chocolate & almonds) is what makes the trip to Montreal worth it, every single time. Plus the salmon sandwich with capers is amazing. Laurent is incredibly friendly & kind, made the experience even better. It's all fresh & definitely worth it!

Very cute little spot, i had the chocolate eclair & it was crispy, buttery & chocolatey in the perfect amount, i think they bake their bread right in there? I was very surprised with the quality! The only bemol would be the amount of seating available but since it's right in old port I can't really complain

We stayed across the street at Maison Bohemia who highly recommended La Cave a Manger. Over the course of the week we enjoyed: bagels, croissants, baguette, pain au chocolate & other assorted pastries. All were excellent. Nice cozy atmosphere with old Montreal charm. A definite must try bakery.
