Review Summary

Queues de Castor - BeaverTails draws praise for its beaver tails, described as addictive with a dough that is crispy on the outside and soft inside, topped with a wide range of toppings from Nutella banana to pistachio cream, and for poutine that many find delicious and generously loaded, though a few note the cheese curds are not always squeaky. Service is repeatedly described as friendly and fast, but busy periods can slow things down since one cashier handles orders, and the space can feel tight with limited indoor seating. The venue is noted as clean and charming with a cute vibe and merch available, making it a worthwhile stop in Montreal's old quarter for visitors from abroad and locals alike, even as some point out hot chocolate can be disappointing. Overall the experience emphasizes quality and value, with beaver tails and poutine as the main draws and the atmosphere as a pleasant bonus.

Food & staff were exceptional but all the points are lost due to the broken lock in the bathroom. I locked the door once I went in & somebody still managed to open the door despite me locking it. Extreme invasion of privacy. It appears this has been an issue for a long time.

Very good but too fat sweet food. It deserves a visit though. Cookies, pastries & chocolate cremes are all good. The staff is also good.

First time trying BeaverTails, it was a good sweet treat to have in the afternoon when the blood sugar levels start to drop. Tried two different flavours & enjoyed them both, the original was nice, sugary & dry & the apple pie was sweet, moist & gooey. If you haven't tried them then worth popping in to get a snack.

I am soo glad that they still have "apple pie" flavor!I came from Ottawa to Montreal as a visiter, & the beaver tails in Ottawa stop servering "apple pie" flavor(I didn't gonna check their Retail store menu but at least they stop selling this flavor on Uber). both my friend & I like it. even to us the nutella banana one is too sweet

Première queue de castor, cool experience. Le gars avec la barbe était quand même drôle. Service impeccable, mais c'était trop sucrée

C'est la première fois que je goûtais à une queue de castor, j'ai été agréablement emportée par cette saveur sucrée mais très douce à la fois. Yoann a su m'accompagner avec patience & gentillesse dans le choix de ma première queue de castor. Il était accueillant & à l'écoute. J'ai passé un très bon moment, je reviendrai!

Spécialité local gourmande & réconfortante! Du gras, du sucre & de la gourmandise... que du plaisir. Dommage que la salle soit négligé: tables sales & des oiseaux survole les clients

Passage obligatoire pour déguster une queue de castor, nourriture bonne & le service sympathique malgré le monde. L'entrée de la boutique est propre mais dès que l'on creuse un peu c'est insalubre. Pas a cause de l'équipe mais par un manque concret d'entretien de type travaux. Les trous dans les murs ne laisse pas une sensation de déco industrielle mais juste de négligence. Avantage, nous nous sommes faits une copine. Ajouté aux oiseaux de quoi nous faire sentir comme Cendrillon
