Beavertails: the famously flat donuts! Deliciously addictive, whole-wheat Canadian pastries served piping hot with your choice of delectable toppings. Also serving ice cream and other iconic Canadian treats.
Reviews depict Queues de Castor - BeaverTails as a beloved, cozy stop for classic Canadian treats, with beavertails that are crispy and generously topped and poutine that many find tasty and hearty. The service is repeatedly described as fast, friendly, and attentive, the space is cute and inviting, and the location is noted for its charm, though a few comments mention long lines and limited seating on busy days, and some critique hot chocolate as watery. Overall, the experience is seen as reliable, satisfying, and fun, inspiring return visits and praise for the variety of toppings and quick service.
Les queues de castor sont très bonnes, comme toujours, mais j'ai été très déçu par le chocolat chaud. Ça avait le goût d'eau chaude avec un soupçon de chocolat en poudre. Quand je prends un chocolat chaud dehors je m'attends à avoir du lait & au moins avec un bon goût de chocolat. Le résultat est bien meilleur quand je le fais chez moi en 30 secondes avec du Nesquik en poudre. Vraiment dommage...
If you're needing something to handle the pastry & chocolate/sweet urge this is a good option. 1 is enough for 1 person but it's also rich & can be shared if needed.
Beavertails seem to be a Canadian thing - since I'm an out of towner, I wanted to try. According to Google: a beavertail is'a Canadian pastry, specifically a flat, fried dough treat shaped like a beaver's tail, & is often topped with various sweet toppings like cinnamon sugar, chocolate, or fruit. It's a popular Canadian dessert, especially in Ontario & Quebec.'
I got the pistachio nord, which they were advertising. It's pistachio cream drizzled over the chocolate beavertail. It was pretty sweet, but it was also very tasty.
I visited during summer, & it was so hot inside. There was little to no AC. The line seems long, but it goes by pretty quickly. The inside is pretty with some seating.

Si vous venez à Montréal il faut aller manger une queue de castor. C'est juste pour goûter, c'est bon . J'ai pris la chocolat banane. C'est bien garni .Sinon le service est super & le cadre est très sympa. Pour le reste je n'ai malheureusement pas eu le temps de goûter par manque de temps, dommage .

Une friandise à faire si vous venez à Montréal !! 🩷 vous avez de nombreux goûts différents, la pâte est excellente & très originale. je vous recommande la queue de castor nutella banane & le chocolat chaud.
la boutique est trop mignonne, vous pouvez même acheter du merch ahah.
My first ever beaver tails. The dough/pastry part had such good flavor to it, which shows the care they put into every part. The toppings were appropriately rich & sweet. The chocolate chaud was top notch. I'm honestly making this comment so in the future, when I come back to montreal, I can have another one.
We cannot leave without try the beaver tails dessert. This place is clean, cozy & enjoyable. Definitely everyone should be able to enjoy. We tried hazelnut & pistachio with hot chocolate. Definitely will be back.

Le chocolat chaud était bon pour le prix & le cheesecake fraise aussi 😋 la classique chocolat & bananes était bon aussi, très bon emplacement pour se réchauffer après des activités hivernale ou après une marche l'hiver au centre-ville!!!
