50 Best Bakeries in Montreal

“Croissant 🥐 and pastry! Exceptional products and friendly service!“

“This bakery is amazing!! Everything is always delicious and the staff is all so friendly. I come here almost every week and look forward to it every time :) the autumn muffin, focaccia, and the toasted grain bread are all personal favourites, but you really can’t go wrong with anything!“

“The slice of kouign amann cake I ordered was incredible. So buttery! The gentleman who served me was lovely. The coffee was delicious. The next time I am in Montréal, I will definitely call ahead and order a full cake!“

“Started last Friday’s day off with a stop at the amazing Cafe dei Campi. Fully veganized Italian pastries and small pizzas. Soups and salads too but I stuck to the Italian specialties. Hazelnut filled tortellini melt in your mouth pastries. Amarettis and Biscotti. The essential Italian cafe’s big espresso machine which makes the perfect double espresso with the layer of crema and their cappuccino with perfect foam. Accompanied with a flaky delicious cornetto, it felt like heaven. Much chatting with my friend and a necessary second cornetto and espresso completed our visit by closing time. We had lucked out with a table. Had a great rest of the day that right from the start, arriving at the cafe there was a couple with their little boy wearing a Metallica t-shirt. Of course I had to comment, he was so cute and responsive to my speaking to him. And found out he’s a true fan of heavy metal music, this beautiful 4 year old boy named Sandro. So the day was pretty perfect.🖤“

“Nouveaux propriétaires. Excellent poulet et service rapide et accueillant aujourd’hui 23 octobre 2021.“

“I had the absolute pleasure of celebrating my birthday with a cake slice from Bernice, and let me tell you—this was no ordinary dessert. From the moment I stepped into the bakery, I was greeted with warmth, charm, and the irresistible smell of fresh-baked joy. But the real magic? That birthday cake slice. It was a perfect balance of elegance and comfort. The texture was soft and airy, the flavor rich yet delicate—like it was baked with both love and skill. Every bite felt like a celebration in itself. What truly made it special, though, was the extra attention the staff gave. They added a personal touch that made me feel seen and celebrated, even with just a single slice. It wasn’t just dessert—it was an experience. Bernice doesn’t just bake cakes. They create memories. If you're ever in Montréal, do yourself a favor and stop by. Whether it’s your birthday or not, they’ll make you feel like it is. 🎂✨“

“Tous les matins mon spot préféré de la journée 😍“

“Très bon j’ai adoré les lahmajounes je recommande!!“

“This is a very good boulangerie located along Mont-Royal Ave East that is open from 7am to 6pm daily. They have a fair sized indoor seating area, many visitors seem to pop in for morning take-away. There was a short queue when we arrived 7.30am midweek. You'll find a nice range of mostly French style breads, tarts, pastries and bakery products. We particularly liked their quiche and almond filled croissants. Coffees served up on the day were very good as well. This seemed like a great boulangerie, one we'd like visit regularly if we lived in the area. Would gladly revisit next time in Montreal.“

“Best place in town. The staff is so kind. Delicious coffee. Amazing food. It's the perfect spot to grab everything you need for a picnic. And, maybe you don't know it yet but, you NEED a plum ponki.“

“This is by far our favourite bakery in Montreal. It was an awesome experience bringing Chris “The Babka King” in for some delicious treats. We tried a lot of different desserts. The one that is our absolute favourite is the Chocolate Russian Babka.“

“When you walk in, it immediately smells like home! The patrons are so very kind, the service was amazing and the manakish are even better!
I ordered extra manakish zaatar, cheese and lahmajoun to take home and freeze. The homesickness has been hitting hard lately and this is the closest I can come to a cure ❤️ they even had bonjus!“

“😀endroit sympathique et accueillant très bon pain et café!“

“Great place for bread, cheese, sandwiches and pastries. I ordered 2 sandwiches and they were both fantastic, as expected. It's a busy spot, so maybe skip if you're in a hurry, but definitely give it a try if you're craving a delicious local spot.“

“Toujours aussi bon et frais 👍“

“My pumpkin pie consisted of a very very fine layer of pumpkin nestled on top of a very very thick Almond substance crust, horrible, just horrible.Extremely disappointing, it’s an outrage actually, I want my $18.00 back!! I will never return, nor should anyone“

“Vitrine qui ne paye pas de mine, assez rétro mais ne vous laissez pas tromper! Passez le sasse d’entrée, les effluves de beurre, croissant, pain chaud et autres délicatesses égayent vos sens. L’étalage est simple, fournie et alléchant. Vous trouverez les grands classiques décuplés par des ingrédients de choix et savoir-faire tout en délicatesse et gourmandise. En bref une bombe! L’eclair au chocolat m’a fait pleurer, le croc-monsieur m’a fait fermer les yeux de bonheur le café m’a fichu un émerveillement aux neurones quand à la tarte au citron j’en suis encore toute retourné… Simple efficace bon tout ça avec le sourire… dure de repartir 😉“

“The food is beyond delicious. However, the lack of respect from some members of staff is very insulting. She's just an employee, but it's shocking that the owners aren't taking action given such behavior.

Update** The owner of the bakery addressed the situation well, and quickly. The difference in service is also visible! Thank you Flour and Vanilla 💗“

“What an awful and disgusting establishment🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮“

“Everything is super good and fresh, the service is always very pleasant, there is a lot of choice of products. It's a little expensive but it's still a bakery and for the quality of the products it's reasonable. They also have a small terrace which is nice when the weather is nice.“

“It’s my favorite Chinese bakery. The variety and creativity of the buns are impressive, and it’s a treat to see my daughter enjoy them, especially since she’s such a picky eater!“

“Tout ce qu’ils font,est délicieux!“

“Love this café. Espresso is consistently well prepared and dialed in, baked goods are solid, and of course you have 10+ roasters to choose from for freshly roasted coffee. My only nitpick would be that I wish the house roaster's beans were available as espresso on rotation. The house blend is good but I've had some mind blowing espresso here and I want more lol.“

“In my opinion, they're even better than St-Viateur and Fairmount bagels... I'm impressed!“

“🥰Une vraie boulangerie artisanale... Flûtes sur levain, baguettes et ficelles croustillantes, miches moelleuses, pains briochés savoureux, croissants pur beurre, au fromage ou aux amandes, et plein d'autres nouveautés. Tout pour satisfaire vos envies gourmandes“

“Fantastic sourdough breads…olive walnut is a favorite, along with cinnamon and raisins…and all their monthly specials!! And the rosemary and sea salt focaccia which should be available all the time 😱😍. It’s not super convenient for me to go there, but I make the trip at least once or twice a month because the quality is superb. Kudos!“

“Great Place For Pizza And Anything Sweet They Have To Offer..“

“Décor est mignon et la nourriture est bien“

“Delicate and delicious cakes and Japanese bread. This is one of my recent favorite patisseries in Montreal. There is a small eat-in area.“

“A pretty unique place. Excellent selection of individual breads loaded with stuff (some sweet, some savory). The Mythique is excellent, so is the Choco Plaisir. The olive Fougase is always a sure bet. See the selection for that day of the week on their website (more selection as you get closer to the weekend).
Make sure to bring cash (debit ok, but no credit card).“

“Superb ambience and they had some great options for sandwiches and bakery items.
Their avacado toast was amazing but the eclairs I felt were a tad bit too sweet for my liking.
But overall amazing experience. Worth visiting atleast once when you are in Montreal.“

“A delightful experience Every Single Time. The chef is French trained (in France!). Thank God they were open during Covid! Our go-to is the Rustic loaf. Treat yourself to a framboise almandine et chocolate. Don’t forget the handmade chocolates.“

“Salerno’s is a local authentic Italian Bakery shop & little corner store that operates with Cash Only!
There is an ATM on site, but just bring a handful of dollar bills, and you'll be set to experience the wide variety of freshly baked goods they have to offer.

This is also where we got the cake for our baby shower. It was very flavourful.
Cheers to the Baker!

Their pizza is huge & delicious
(only half of it shown in the picture)“

“I bought 6 different donuts and if I closed my eyes and took a bite of each I would not have known the difference. They were not very fresh. Quite disappointed especially for the price I paid for the 6 donuts“

“I wasn’t sure what to expect. My friend suggested we get a little sweet treat.
The croissants were flakey on the outside, completely stuffed on the inside (I had pistachio) there were more with delicious fillings but 1 was definitely more than enough.

There was one man working. He was very friendly and very helpful.

I would say if you’re curious definitely try it. The pastries were about $6 each. So not something I would do often. But it was definitely worth the try!

Made us feel like tourists in our own city. 🫶🏽

Parking: You’re downtown. We got lucky. There was a spot right away. But that’s not always the case in the area. So if you need I suggest. Just park and walk.“

“Very cozy and warm café. I didn't notice any seating but the fresh product, the energy cookies were absolutely divine. It's a café I'll visit again. The only feedback is how long it took to warm up 2 sandwiches, felt as if I waited for quite a while.“

“oui, on a beaucoup aimé mais celui de saint hilaire est notre premier choix.“

“Visited here on a return trip with my 14yr old to show him my go to spot for patties and Rock cake back in the 90's. Sadly though the patties aren't the same anymore but I'm happy to say the rock cake is just as good as I remember, you can still smell the aroma of them baking in back of the store just like I remember as a kid growing up. This is a must stop for me to grab a few packs of rock cake to take back to Toronto.“

“Delicious Very good I was very pleased“

“GRIBOUILLES !!!! juste trop délicieux“

“Le Ryad Pâtisseries a été ma découverte de la journée. Le service est impeccable et les pâtisseries sont délicieuses. Je recommande!“

“Meilleur pain en ville. Best bread ever! Once you try margarita bread you won’t want anything else!“

“Le mamie clafoutis sur fleury est très bon et le personnel très gentil“

“What a find! - if you like delicious cake with real whipped cream frosting.
We had the mango cake and the tiramisu with cappuccinos.
My husband was grumbling about no bathrooms and the seating is kinda tight but relaxing music and a plant on every table is lovely.“

“We were able to enjoy this magnificent place for a few months.
Honestly one of the best cafes in Montreal.
The setting is superb, the coffee very good and the cakes excellent!!!! And the pao de queijo ??
Thank you for having us!“

“I just moved in January and this place is right across the street from me <3 Super friendly owners and amazing fresh baked bread. I reccomend the milk bread but go early cause its usually gone by the afternoon! 10/10“

“Came here several times over the summer. The service was fantastic, the workers were very chill, I had probably the best chocolatine of my life, and they were remarkably patient when I forgot to bring cash with me. Love this place and will certainly be back.“

“Cet endroit est un incontournable à Montréal ! Les pâtisseries sont incroyables, leurs sandwichs aussi et sans oublier leur café 🤌. Le personnel est vraiment sympathique, je recommande à 1000%“

“the ONLY place I go for bagels, cream cheese, Stewart's orange soda, schnitzel and a bunch of stuff every time I go there...I also love me a dizz bagel for my bagel burger...“

“meilleurs produits de montreal, et les propriétaires sont incroyable. vous ne pouvez pas être decu“
