The best croissants I've ever had, the pistachio cream is a must! Ask server to warm the croissants. Great atmosphere & interior design, felt just like a cafe in Paris!

Not only this beautiful place manages to bring the esthetic of a small coffee shop in Paris on Montreal, it also brings the delicious flavors of French pastries ! Everything I tried there was perfect, the coffees (highly suggest the Viennois), the croissant, the carrots cake, etc! The service is also impeccable!
They are also open very late compared to other coffe shop, so for a late night hang out with friends, treat by yourself or romantic date, it's the perfect place !

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!

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!

Those who imagine this place has anything to do with Paris must have only been to France as tourists. Very average (but nice looking!) café catering to Mile End anglos. Enjoy, if that's your idea of a nice outing.

Superbe petite endroit très français. La terrasse est agréable mais l'intérieur est magnifique & vous fera sentir comme dans un café de Paris. Prix raisonnable & services impeccable

Let's do the good stuff first. It's got great atmosphere. Like really great. Like being transported to a Parisian arrondissement great. The viennoiserie looks really pretty. The pastries are reheated. That's a trick to make them better. I ordered a croissant with jam. The jam that arrived was Smuckers. A little peel the top off plastic container that you get at diners. The cutlery was dirty. Like disgusting dirty that it reminded me of when my Chinese grandmother used to wash the chopsticks at restaurants in hot tea. The good news is that the pain au chocolate my wife had was « buttery » which is what happens when you put it in the oven. Nothing wrong with warming up French pastries. It's a great way to make mediocre pastries pretty good. My croissant was mediocre but heated to make it pretty okay. But it was small. I like small buttery croissants. But mostly ones that are well done by talented & determined bakers. Who would kill or die at the sight of their creations being served with Smuckers. I ordered a café au lait. Which is usually a delicious coffee drink with texture & the sweetness of a good milk. Not here. This was more akin to a double double from Timmy's but not as sweet. I didn't drink much of it. I mentioned it to the waitress who asked about the food - after we ate it. She looked at my barely touched café au lait & I told her in no uncertain terms it was the worst I've had in my life. To be clear I've had worse coffee beverages but this was the worst café au lait. She said she would mention it. Waited forever for the bill. The café au lait was still on the bill. She presented me with the machine to pay & the lowest tip option was a whopping 18% which is the norm but was about $4.00. I stared at the machine & felt bad as I pressed no tip. I felt bad because the server probably needs the money in the typical cheque is small. But the tip is a way to make things right if the product isn't commensurate with the price. Save your money. Cross the street to Rumi where I had an amazing delicious brunch.
