About

Le Far Breton operates as a traditional bakery and café specializing in authentic Brittany-style pastries and artisanal baked goods. The menu focuses on the signature far breton cake, characterized by its dense, custard-like texture and prunes, alongside an assortment of freshly prepared kouign-amann. Patrons find a selection of flaky butter croissants, fruit-filled tarts, and various sourdough breads baked daily to ensure consistent quality. The interior environment facilitates a focused culinary experience where the aroma of caramelized sugar and roasted coffee beans defines the sensory atmosphere. Counter service remains standard for those purchasing boxes of regional specialties or individual treats to consume on-site. The establishment prioritizes the precise execution of classic Breton techniques, resulting in a refined inventory of savory and sweet offerings that adhere strictly to historical French baking traditions.

I was here on a Sunday for breakfast, there weren't many options at the moment but I liked what I ate & the guy who served us, who seemed to be the owner?, was very kind & helpful. He even gave us something extra on the house. Not bad for someone who is a tourist in the area.

Expresso bon, les viennoiseries sont a tomber. J'ai pris un croissant aux amandes & j'ai été surprise par la douceur & le croustillant demu Feuilletage. La garniture est généreuse & bonne. Je recommande !

Meilleure boulangerie à Montréal. J'ai déménagé plutôt loin & j'y retourne quand même si j'ai l'occasion, je ne peux plus m'en passer.

Croissant aux amandes extraordinaire, probablement le meilleur en ville! Produits exceptionnels, faits avec amour, j'adore. L'horaire est un peu restreint alors on doit prévoir notre visite en conséquence.
