Beautiful little neighbourhood cafe/bar. Their croissants are delicious. Love the decor & great service as well. Every time I'm in the area, I stop in.
La Croissanterie Figaro is a gem in terms of atmosphere; the Art Nouveau decor & the historic vibe truly transport you to Paris. It is a place with undeniable charm & soul.
However, for a spot that is pricier than average & always busy, the operational details should be sharper. During my visit, there were no napkins at the table, & the hand dryer in the restroom was out of order. These might seem like small things, but in a high-standard establishment in Outremont, maintenance & basic service are key to the overall experience.
I'm giving it 4 stars because I love the ambiance & want this place to thrive, but the management needs to match their beautiful aesthetic with better attention to maintenance & customer care. Hopefully, these points will be addressed soon!
Cute coffee spot, very beautiful & tastefully decorated. The staff was very nice & welcoming. Chai latte was ok. Good place to meet & catch up or read or just enjoy a tea or coffee.
Love the decor & ambiance of this place, we felt like we were in Paris! Very friendly service & delicious food! The croissants can also be ordered to go, highly recommend!

La Croissanterie Figaro feels like a little slice of Paris in Montreal. The vintage decor & cozy atmosphere make it the perfect spot to relax. Their croissants are incredibly buttery & flaky, & the coffee pairs perfectly. Friendly service! Definitely worth a visit!
Greeted by owner who was very pleasant. Lots of people buzzing outside, including inside. It's very much of a European vibe & decor & love it. Servers were very friendly, & they were busy so much so that my coffee cup sadly was not refilled, but again, servers were understaffed & working as best they could with a smile. Now the croissant was disappointing, & I was expecting better from a croissanterie. I tried the croissant with cheese, I had to fight eating the croissant & was told no utensils were available, so I couldn't cut it in peices because when they heated the croissant the cheese oozed out & got baked to a crust (hence fighting to get a graceful bite). I also found the coffee could be a tad less bitter, & so a refill would have possibly turned my stomach, & a quick visit to the washroom would have been warranted.
Greeted by the owner who is super friendly . The atmosphere, decor all top notch . Beautiful outdoor terrace & lunch was good ! Great French style bistro
When it comes to ambiance & decoration, La Croissanterie Figaro is the perfect choice. Everything felt antique & nostalgic, creating such a charming & unique atmosphere - I absolutely loved the décor. The food was excellent, & I highly recommend the affogato - it was a real treat. The service was also wonderful; the owner himself took the time to talk about the history of the place & its beautiful design, which made the experience even more special. I'll definitely be going back!
The owner is taking care of this place for 33 years! This place has a picturesque decoration with high quality & tasty recipes with reasonable prices! I had a sandwich la Gondole that comes with a delicious salad. I definitely recommend the Figaro! 👌👍.
Note: do not miss the Affogato! It is a MUST try item 😍
Atmosphère décorée pour remonter le temps, super service, nourriture vraiment bonne, desserts délicieux! Un coin vraiement très agréable pour prendre un café avec des amis ou un rencontre...

I love this place! The coffee, the Viennese hot chocolate & the chocolate mellow was decadent! In addition, the authentic art decor atmosphere adds a unique experience! Thanks to our pretty & welcoming waitress Poppy. very happy to come back! ☕?🥐🍰
Serveuses très gentilles, les croissants & le chocolat chauds sont délicieux toit comme le café. Nous avons moins aimé nos plats pour dîner la fois où on y a mangé. Ça reste un de mes endroits favoris du quartier avec la terrasse fleurie & la décoration intérieure charmante.
Loved this beautiful place, unique decor, great terrace 😲 ordered grilled baguette with butter & strawberry jam, a cappuccino. Great service 🤠😁 have to go back😍
