La Meunerie Urbaine receives broad praise for exceptional bread and a wide range of pastries, with many reviewers calling it among the best bakeries in Montreal and highlighting sourdough, a French baguette with a soft crumb, croissants, and chocolatine as standouts; the emphasis on quality, craft and freshness shines through in comments about beautifully baked loaves, diverse grains, and a strong selection of pastries, plus good coffee and reliable service. A self service area helps with quick pickups, though long lines are common. Some notes point to changes after a remodel that made the baking area less visible and gave a more transactional feel, and a few worry that baguettes have become thinner or bread textures differ from earlier visits. Overall the impression remains highly positive, with many declaring it a must visit, a favorite in Montreal, and a reliable source of excellent bread and pastries at fair prices.
They do a kimchi focaccia that literally changed my life.
The first time I tried it, I had a full-on Ratatouille-style flashback. Ever since then, I've been hooked. The problem is they only make it on certain days, & it sells out almost immediately. You have to be at the right place at the right time to get one. I've definitely driven by at 2 or 3 PM knowing they've probably sold out… but still hoping, just in case, that there's one left. That's how good it is.
La Meunerie, please… at least give me the recipe so I can provide a consistent supply of kimchi focaccia for myself. I can't keep living like this. Thanks.

Les produits sont excellents, en particulier, les pains. Voté meilleure baguette en ville! Mais plus de places assises. Quoique ce n'est pas nécessairement la vocation de l'endroit .
The sourdough & focaccia were delicious. We also got cinnamon rolls, quiche & two lattes, the guy who helped us to choose was patient & attentive & then we were greeted with a big smile from the kind lady who served us the coffee. An amazing experience 🥰
Pains très nourissants au levain - 1/2 tranche du pain'quotidien' me suffit le matin. Les croissants pur beurre croustillant à l'extérieur & moelleux à l'intérieur. Endroit fréquenté par les amants de bonne bouffe.
This is the best discovery in the past year! Beautifully made bread, baked to perfection. Modern, clean & provides the best quality bread I have ever had. I love going weekly to carb load.
J'ai demandé une pâtisserie que j'ai vu en montre en avant mai la personne est allé le chercher en arrière. Quand elle est revenue, je lui ait demandé si c'était bien la pâtisserie que j'ai vu en avant. Elle m'a répondu'ça te pose un problème'?
Je n'ai rien dit mais je ne retournerai plus jamais.....dommage pour eux, il y a d'autres places sur Monkland....
