On se spécialise dans la confection de kürtőskalács aussi connu sous le nom de gâteau cheminée en français! Toujours cuit frais! We specialize in the making of kürtőskalács or also known in english as chimney cake! Always freshly baked!
Reviews portray Ol' Sweet Pastry as a cozy spot where chimney cakes are baked to order, crispy on the outside and soft inside, offered in flavors like cinnamon sugar, pistachio, Nutella, and berry creations, with many saying the pastries are fresh, flavorful and appealing, and that watching them be made adds a special touch; the atmosphere, decor and friendly staff receive frequent praise, and customers often note good value for Montreal, with some calling it a memorable detour and a must visit for dessert lovers; there are occasional notes about limited seating and parking and the wait time during peak periods, and a few reviewers mention variability in taste or sweetness, but the overall sentiment is enthusiastic and many say they will return and recommend Ol' Sweet Pastry; there is one unusual negative anecdote about an incident observed locally, but it does not define the overall positive impression of the fresh, high quality treats and attentive service.
Absolutely delicious & awesome place! My friends & I went in very last minute (about 15 minutes before closing), & the worker was super friendly & even explained to us tourists about what the dessert was & their recommendations. We got the cinnamon coating with pistachio filling, & it was absolutely delicious! The outside was crunchy, but the inside was chewy & warm. It had unique flavours & a large portion that all three of us couldn't finish. Definitely worth the visit & would come back again to try their other flavours. One of my favourite dessert places in Montreal!

I tried both the chimney cake & an ice cream with the special cone. For the cake you should wait 5 mins for the sugar to harden before eating it. Then it has a deliciously fluffy interior with a crunchy sweet topping. My favourite is the traditional with walnut, but they offer different variations. It's not very heavy on the stomach so would be a perfect dessert after dinner. I've never seen an ice cream cone like the ones they sell here, so I had to give it a try. The combination of cone, ice-cream & toppings are deliciously sweet. The staff happily explain what a chimney cake is & are traditionally trained. You can even watch them make it!
Amazing pastries that they make to order. We sampled the cinnamon sugar & the cinnamon sugar with Nutella, both were fantastic! Operated by friendly staff who walked through the history & how they were made. Great for a quick snack

La experiencia de cómo lo preparan es excelente, pero se me hace muy antihigiénico que la persona no use guantes, ya que agarra el pan o con con la mano.
Cette célèbre patisserie hongroise revisitée (avec la glace dedans) est très bonne ! Juste un peu déçue de ne pas l'avoir eu chaude ! Mais j'imagine qu'il y a un lien avec le fait qu'on ai choisi d'y mettre la glace. Sinon excellente idée de l'avoir apporté ici à Montréal puis le service impeccable
