Pâtisserie Coco gets strong praise for a huge variety of pastries that are described as fresh and tasty, with both sweet and savory items, from egg tarts and mochi to brioche buns and bubble tea, all in a self serve setup where a tray and tongs make browsing easy and the packing at the till is efficient. The reviews often mention good value and a clean, lively Chinatown Montreal atmosphere, making it a popular go to spot even with crowds on busy days. While many notes are positive about freshness and the range, some guests point out occasional hits or misses, heavy dough on certain buns, and bubble tea that can be too sweet or not customized, plus seating is limited and service can feel chilly during peak times. Overall the place is viewed as a dependable destination for quick, affordable treats and a chance to explore a wide array of Asian inspired pastries, with many customers returning month after month.
On a cold Saturday night i was craving some coco cheesecake. As i walk outside i ended up slipping on some black ice & snapped my knee💔 the cheesecake went flying, onto the cold hard musty ground. While waiting for assistance for my injury i was also worried about my dessert being ruined. Mark my words, the pastries at this place are like Nokia phones, INDESTRUCTIBLE. How on earth could a human bone snap but a box of cheesecake that just preformed an Olympic gymnastics routine stay completely intact. Anyways the cheesecake was fire & i love this place lol.
This place was excellent. After a few days in Montréal & eating some excellent food, stopping in here for a snack was the best choice we've made so far. The pastries were all amazing. So far everything we've tried was excellent, & even if something wasn't quite to our taste, we can fully acknowledge that the quality is great even if the flavor profile doesn't align with our palates. The hot dog bun in particular stands out as one of the best I've had. The staff were excellent & even though it was super busy, they were diligent & courteous.
The only note I have is that the bubble tea was too sweet & the cashier didn't ask for sweetness preferences like I'm used to. But honestly thats a minor thing & overall it was amazing.
The pastries are fresh & tasty. A couple of visits left me the impression that at the checkout the ladies could not be more arrogant & didn't care to answer my questions. Five stars for the food. Zero for the service.
Food: 3/5 - I bought 3 assorted buns & pastries - slice of cake, BBQ pork bun & matcha cake slice. None of them wowed me. Lacked flavor. Maybe cuz I bake my own stuff a lot. I also bought a mango iced tea on the other side of the store. They offer basic tea or milk teas. I had a mango tea with coconut jelly with no sugar or ice.
Service: 4/5 - good service overall
Atmosphere: 4/5 - clean & nice premise

Amazing pastries! You go in & pick up a tray, put a paper liner on it & grab some tongs. Once armed with these, you fill up the tray yourself from the selection of sweets, pastries & desserts. At the end, you pass on the tray at the till where your selection gets packed up & you can pay. I loved how efficient the system was, as well as how tasty everything was! Highly recommend!
Fun experience to take a tray & choose your pastries. The best part was obviously eating them, though. Green tea sponge cake & black sesame brioche were great
I recently visited Patisserie Coco & tried these delightful pastries. They were beautifully crafted, with a soft, fluffy texture & a perfect balance of sweetness. The almond toppings added a lovely crunch, enhancing the overall flavor. Unfortunately, I can't recall the name, but the experience was unforgettable-highly recommended for anyone with a sweet tooth!
