Service was outstanding and price was reasonable. The energy isn't rushed but do be mindful that this location is small. The sourdough Baguette we got was anything but 'chain' and had that perfect crispness and soft inside that said, 'homemade'. My Matcha Latte was good and hubs liked his decaf Cap. My Chocolate Croissant had a wonderful glob of dark chocolate goodness in the center and wished I had another. Their kouign-amann was heavy; considering what I've read about its light interior, this one fell short. Both the baguette and my chocolate croissant were the all-around winners out of the few other things we picked up- but will keep these guys in mind for these two items and hot beverages.

They have multiple locations, but seem to be well respected by locals for their croissants and pastries.

Little seating room, but if you want to eat inside it's definitely possible. Always a must stop on our trips to Montréal.

The hubs and I stopped by while in the area, as we had heard that they're known for their buttery croissants. We had ordered one, and I was a little sad that they had run out of the cheese ones already T___T The regular croissant was okay, but it wasn't as buttery as it was described (I actually found the shape of it pretty funny) :P The hubs enjoyed it, as he stated that it was slightly different, not too sweet, and was flaky enough. It may have been slightly better if it was right out of the oven or warmed up, as I thought it was more on the dry end. Staff was super friendly, and there's limited seating inside.

The Slightly Longer Version: The name of this bakery, L'Amour du Pain, gives me a chuckle. It translates to The Love of Bread, but since I'm an Anglophone I always think of it as The Love of Pain, lol. Luckily, the pastries here give me joy and not pain. The cheese croissant (croissant au fromage) ($4.25) here is delicious. Very flakey and buttery with nice cheese flavour. I had Chocolate Swiss Bread (Pain Suisse au Chocolat $4.95) here for the first time and also enjoyed it. It's like a long flatter croissant with vanilla custard and chocolate chips inside. It too was buttery and rich. Service was pleasant. I took my goodies to go, but there's seating in the bakery. Review #2 (2025)

I noticed waiting in front of the store and saw their May monthly specials so I decided to try the apple pastry and that was a real win! Yummy custard, crisply baked apple slices wrapped in a pastry and topped with toasted almond clusters and dusted all over with icing sugar. Loved it!! Tried the chocolatine and on the outside looks huge!! It's actually just air lol (see cross section photo). It was alright. Finally I picked up a spinach quiche. Toasted it up a bit in the oven to warm it up. It's simply made with a good amount of spinach on top. The quiche has a strong spinach flavor and the egg portion was just a bit salty for me. Overall ok.
