Their chocolatine (pain au chocolat) is amazing! At least for me, with my gluten-free & dairy-free diet, I don't remember when I had such a tasty one. & their bread is amazingly soft for a gluten-frew bread. I'll go again.
Gluten & dairy free paradise! Newish to the dietary needs club & this place ticks every box for nostalgia ( soon to be a passé feeling)! Buttery without butter, creamy without cream & wonderful flavors! Lots of passion behind it!!!
We've been looking for the best gluten-free croissants for years, & we found them at Parc Sans Gluten. The staff is extremely friendly & helpful. This past visit I got to try their tiramisu & it was delicious. One of the best I've ever had. Thank you so much for the delicious gluten & dairy free alternatives!
My husband & I are from the states & we come to Montreal at least once a year & love finding new food places to enjoy. I was diagnosed celiac 4yrs ago & the one thing I have not had in those 4 years is a croissant. I love almond croissants & most other desserts & when we found this place we were so excited. To walk in to a bakery & see beautiful pastries & know that they are all gf was one of the greatest feelings. We got a few things to try. The chocolate almond croissant, a turkey & cheese croissant sandwich, the chicken & spinach empanada. Everything was excellent, amazing, out of this world. The texture was more dense than a croissant with regular flour but still had that croissant feel. It was actually more filling & kept me full the rest of the day, whereas a'regular' croissant in the past would've held me over for maybe an hour & then I'd need something of more substance. We bought extra stuff to take home with us (can't wait to try the tiramisu) & will definitely return to this bakery anytime we are in the city. To top it off, one of the owners chatted with us about how they are able to make their desserts gluten & dairy free (which is mind blowing that the croissants didn't use use butter because I could not tell). She was so lovely & kind & wanted to make sure we were enjoying everything. I could have just hung out there & talked all day. Thank you for the kind service & tasty treats!
Amazing amazing amazing! It is nearly impossible to find gluten free & dairy free treats that have amazing flavor, trust me I have spent my whole life trying to find them, but parc sans gluten achieved all of my dreams & more, you can't even tell they are gluten free dairy free & my partner who does not have dietary restrictions agrees. If you are gluten free dairy free this is a must visit place. I have gone every single day on my trip here, & I am going to stock up before I head home! The staff are all so friendly & kind. This place is 1 in a million!

Best gluten free croissants in Montreal!
I tried croissants from a few bakeries & these are my favourite. I come here from Ottawa & they're worth the trip.
Plain, almond, chocolate, chocolate almond are all delicious! Oh, & there's also three kinds of danish (blueberry, raspberry, lemon), we tried them all, & it's hard to pick a favourite. Very good eclairs & tarts too.
Great gluten free bread & baguettes.
They have lunch options as well, we usually go for croissants, but everything we tried here, is delicious!
Very friendly staff!
I'm a symptomatic celiac, my kids have gluten & dairy allergy, never had any reaction & always feel safe shopping here.
Hands down the best gluten free croissant I've ever had! We had the chocolate croissant & potato/spinach empanada which were both amazing! Almost everything here is gluten & dairy free but you'd never know. This place is a hidden gem. A must go for anyone gluten or dairy free.
We were traveling from the United States. My wife is a celiac, strictly gluten-free. So searching around on Google I discovered this charming little patisserie on a corner, across from a beautiful park. But the magic? Everything in this patisserie is gluten-free. I brought my wife, a celiac of 33 years, & she stood in the middle of the bakery looking around at all the incredible treats & kept looking at me asking "Are you serious? Everything is gluten-free " (See photo). & not just breakfast pastries. Yes, there are breakfast croissants & sandwiches. But there are also incredible wraps/burritos for lunch on the go, or to keep in your backpack for later. I'm telling you, as a non-gluten-free person, I took bites of everything that my wife bought & it was some of the most delicious pastry I've ever put in my mouth - & I would never have known that it was gluten free. Ive spent 30 years trying to create baked goods for my wife. How the owner gets these light, airy puffed pastries & croissants is simply beyond me. (Dairy-free options, too!). We ate outside on the patio & I'm telling you when my wife took her first bite of the chocolate filled croissant, she started crying. (See picture). That says it all. Go, enjoy, without worry. It's amazing.
