Across reviews, Rockaberry is seen as a dessert focused destination in Montreal with a cozy, relaxed vibe that invites long visits and friendly chatter, ample seating, and a welcoming atmosphere. The desserts are the highlight, with standout items including Boston Cream Cheesecake, apple crumble cheesecake, strawberry shortcake, Nutella cake, and a key lime pie; portions are generous and the variety of pies and cakes draws repeat visits. The menu also offers vegetarian desserts and options beyond desserts, including dinners and cocktails, making it more than just a dessert cafe. Service receives mixed notes: many describe staff as friendly and attentive, while some reviews recount moments of less attentive or inconsistent service that can affect the mood. Prices can be on the higher side, with some calls for smaller portions to improve value, yet the quality and consistency of the desserts are repeatedly praised. The locations, including Griffintown, are described as lively and atmospheric, with some comments on a darker interior but overall inviting, plus clean washrooms, good parking, and a vibe conducive to birthdays or casual nights out.
Cakes are delicious. Unfortunately we were kicked out of the Terrasse because we had a tiny poodle (trained & with a service card). Other restaurants in Griffintown allow costumers to bring our furry kids & even give them water & ice. We will miss the cakes in a nice summer day ... we will choose this restaurant only in winte

La pâtisserie offre des cheesecakes délicieux avec des saveurs variées qui raviront les amateurs de douceurs. Cependant, l'expérience en salle laisse à désirer. L'ambiance sombre & peu accueillante ne met pas en valeur la qualité des produits heureusement on a trouvé une place qui ouvre sur la rue. De plus, le manque de chaleur & de convivialité de la serveuse contraste fortement avec la qualité des desserts. Pour améliorer l'expérience globale, il serait bénéfique de rehausser l'éclairage & de former le personnel à offrir un service plus chaleureux. Malgré ces points, la pâtisserie reste une adresse intéressante pour déguster des cheesecakes de qualité, à condition de ne pas chercher une ambiance animée.
For the past 7 years, I've loved getting pies from Rockaberry. The pies were tasty & impressive in size - all a gal could ask for! Sadly, on my latest visit, I brought my sister from out of town to get a piece of pie for her boyfriend & was beyond bummed when we got home & saw the size of the pie was super underwhelming (read: disappointing). We got a piece of the raspberry fudge cheese, & I am still on the hunt for the rest of the fudge portion that seemingly did not make it into the container 🤨 I don't think the pictures do justice to how small this slice felt, but if I were to describe it, I'd say it's Rockaberry's take on a two-bite brownie 😢 Anywho, my cravings will likely bring me back cause the pies are oh so tasty, but I'll have to mentally prepare to be sad about the portion size in advance. The staff was super nice & friendly as always, it just seems that the portion sizes have dramatically changed.

Rockaberry was an okay experience. To be fair, I did go there for food instead of their esteemed pies & cakes. However, I wasn't a fan of the dark bar atmosphere, & the food wasn't too impressive. I do want to give it another try another time, but as for right now, I don't see myself coming back anytime soon.
We had a late night stop for some slices to take home at 10:30, the team were so lovely & friendly. The rockafetti was amazing & a hit with my son, I had the apple cheese crumble which was also amazing as was the blueberry crumble. Such a big selection, hope we have time to come back on our travels. Thank you!
Maybe i made a bad choice. But brownie with the chocolate mousse cake was not good. Way too sweet, wet brownie bottom & the little bit of whipped cream tasted stale. Staff was great though.
This pastry shop is really great. The staff was very polite & kind. They genuinely wanted to make sure we had the a great time at their establishment. The pies/cake were so good. They have a wide variety of options to choose from & they are fairly priced. I recommend seating outside on the patio if you can. It's just a nice space.

j'ai goûté une tarte au citron vert, une tarte au chocolat (pas celle Nutella) & le shortcake aux fraises. Ils étaient tous délicieux & ÉNORMES (ils pourraient à peine en finir un)!! je reviendrais tout à fait ♥️💋
