I walked in here craving something sweet & didn't have high expectations but I was BLOWN AWAY by this pastry. I got the cinnamon sugar traditional flavour & I still cannot believe the texture of it? It's crispy on the outside & the most insane soft on the inside. I took it to-go & when I was handed my order the cook asked me to eat it as soon as possible because it's best eaten fresh. I'm so glad he told me that, because I ate it the second I walked out & by the last bite I could tell he was right! I cannot wait to be back

A wonderful experience. Great food (we tried the cinnamon sugar & the wild berry ice cream, with local Coaticook ice cream), wonderful service (friendly, professional, helpful in explaining their offerings), clean & terrific background music that was not at all too loud (Motown hits, Bryan Adams...). As a local, it was our first try & we will definitely be going back.

Pâtisserie Ol' Sweet is easily one of the most memorable dessert spots I've come across. Their specialty-kürt?skalács, or chimney cakes-is a must-try: freshly baked, perfectly crisp, & filled with creative toppings that make each bite unforgettable.
Parking can be a bit tricky, & seating is limited, so it's not ideal for lingering. But if you're looking for something unique & delicious, this place absolutely delivers. Great for a quick treat or impressing out-of-town guests with something they've probably never had before.

I stopped by Ol' Sweet this past July with my friend Hady after a picnic in Parc La Fontaine, & it was the perfect sweet detour. This bakery is all about Hungarian chimney cakes (kürt?skalács), always baked fresh to order so you get that golden caramelized crust & soft fluffy inside.

Walking in felt cozy & nostalgic, with old school music like La Vie en Rose playing & David, the owner, greeting us with such warmth. He told us Ol' Sweet has been open for four years, though before that they built their name at festivals & events around the city.

We went classic with our order & loved how each one is made freshly in front of you & doesn't need much topping to shine. The menu also has fun spreads, fruit, or ice cream for anyone who wants add a little extra pizazz .

Bonus: when there is enough extra dough it's put on the Too Good To Go app, which makes grabbing a treat at the end of the day both delicious & eco-friendly.

Not a collab, just a happy foodie sharing a Montréal gem.
