Review Summary

L'Avant Goût is a charming neighborhood épicerie fine with a carefully curated mix of local Quebec products and well chosen imports, including artisanal cheeses, small batch preserves, locally roasted coffee and a thoughtful line of beers, ciders and wines. The staff are warm, welcoming, and knowledgeable, and the owner seems genuinely invested in customers, often sharing recommendations and helping discover new finds. The selection highlights regional producers and seasonal ingredients, making each visit feel more like a culinary adventure than routine shopping, with weekend tastings and in store explanations adding social meaning. Prices are not the lowest, but the quality and sense of community keep regulars coming back, describing L'Avant Goût as a hidden gem worth a trip for locals and visitors alike.

Client since day one & I keep coming back for a reason. The owner is passionate about what he does & genuinely invested in his customers.

He's attentive, & always willing to share recommendations or help you discover something new. You can feel that this is more than a business for him , it's personal.

A true neighborhood gem.

L'Avant Goût Épicerie is a hidden gem, it's exactly what a neighbourhood grocery shop should be. The selection of local Québec products is thoughtfully selected - from artisanal cheeses & small-batch preserves to locally roasted coffee & unique pantry staples you won't find in big chains.

You can tell the owners cares about the quality & community. Everything feels intentionally chosen, highlighting regional producers & seasonal ingredients. It's the kind of place where you pop in for one item & leave inspired to cook a three course meal!

The staff are warm, knowledgeable, & happy to share recommendations, which makes the experience feel personal rather than transactional.

If you're in Montréal & want to support local while shopping for truly great products, this spot is absolutely worth the visit!
