Reviews describe Afroditi as a beloved Parc Ex bakery known for freshly baked, beautifully presented pastries and a wide range of Greek specialties, from baklava and spanakopita to almond cakes, cookies and custom cakes. Many praise the atmosphere as charming and homelike, with a welcoming aroma and friendly, attentive staff, though there may be a short wait during busy hours. The quality and flavor come up repeatedly, with items considered among the best in Montreal, and the variety praised for everyday treats and celebrations alike, even as some notes of dryness in sponge or occasional icing mix-ups appear. Pricing is seen as a bit high but justified by craft and taste, and several reviews mention price increases in recent years. When issues arise, the owner and team are described as responsive, offering apologies and rebates to make things right. The place is described as a must-visit, a go-to for birthdays and events, and a standout that feels Greek heritage in a chic, inviting setting, sometimes called a hidden gem.
It's a very charming place-you feel like you've traveled to the past, & the scent of freshly baked bread is amazing. The staff are professional, though not very smiley. The cakes are delicious. It's a bit pricey, but I think it's much better than what you usually find in other stores.

I ordered a vanilla cake for a birthday. I clearly specified the one with 35% cream on the outside & on the inside (as the birthday girl requested & which we have ordered in the past). When I picked up the cake, I specifically asked if it was the 35% cream cake, which the lady who served me assured me it was. To our GREAT disappointment, the vanilla cake was made with yellow custard inside instead of the real 35% cream. & the outside was just regular generic icing, not the 35% cream icing. VERY disappointing to say the least. We ate the cake, but EVERYONE left the awful fake icing. The cake cost $48 ! UPDATE: I spoke with the owner the next day. She agreed it was a mistake on their part & has offered to give a rebate on our next order as an apology.
j'ai eu un gateau au pistache pour mon anniversaire & sa ma donner envie d'aller en acheter un deuxieme 😈 leur gateau est tous dans les meilleurs que j'ai gouter jusqu'à present :)
This bakery is an absolute must-visit! It's one of my all-time favorite Greek bakeries-everything is consistently fresh, flavorful, & crafted with care. You can truly taste the quality in every bite.
My only suggestion would be to consider adding Frappe to the menu-it would be the perfect complement to your offerings & make this spot a true one-stop shop for satisfying any sweet craving. 😊
Food as Pastery, is nice. I only went there to pick up a beautiful cake made by them 😋. This cake was extra for my big sis from Church 50th anniversary. Didn't stay long so I would be able to say much about service. Atmosphere is calm, & clean. I grew up in ParkEx so I know there for the beat Pastries & almond candies I used to buy as a little girl.
