Review Summary

BeaverTails at the Old Port of Montreal is widely celebrated as a must-visit destination for those seeking a quintessential Canadian treat. Visitors frequently praise the delicious, warm, and freshly prepared pastries, with the pistachio flavor standing out as a particularly popular recommendation. The establishment is frequently recognized for its welcoming atmosphere and the consistently friendly, efficient, and professional service provided by the staff, who are often described as helpful and energetic. While the venue is appreciated for its comfortable, clean, and well-organized environment, including the convenient addition of a hand-washing station, some note that the space can become quite busy and occasionally warm. Although opinions on other menu items like poutine vary, and some find the portions pricey or the experience messy, the overall consensus remains highly positive, with many diners eager to return for another classic snack.

Un dessert qui vaut le détour !

Pour terminer un repas sur une touche sucrée, je ne peux que vous recommander cet endroit. Pour ma part, j'ai choisi la Bananarama, & elle était excellente ! La portion est tout à fait correcte au vu du prix, ce qui en fait un excellent rapport qualité-prix.

Je recommande sans hésiter !

Nous y avons été pour le diner & avons décidé de se partager une poutine & de chacune prendre une queue de castor.
La poutine : clairement pas la meilleure que nous avons mangé. La quantité était correcte par rapport au prix
Les queues de castor : à tout ceux qui disent que cela est trop bourratif pour un dessert etc, c'est vrai que cela rempli bien l'estomac c'est pour cela que nous avons décidé d'en faire notre repas & c'était la meilleure idée que nous avons eu car nous avons pu savourer la chose.

First time trying in summer as a tourist. Topping-to-bread ratio is unbalanced. Not recommended as a dessert/quick-bites place.

It's one of the dessert place we go everytime we walk in the Chinatown/Vieux-Port when I go with my family ! 💕 We went twice in that place for some icecream + slush & then went back again to eat some beaver tail dessert 🤤 It was extremely sweet, I went there with my family to get some "strawberry lemonade slush + icecream on top" , some icecream & then some beaver tail dessert & was pretty good!! We took two classic beaver , one coco Vanille beaver & two pistachio & it was very yummy !! 🫶 Absolutely love the decor too!! It's a cool vibe in there but I wish they had more seat inside/outside to sit as a group (they only had a few places to sit down in this location)
