We stumbled upon the market walking home, I didn't even realize it was a cheese market as it is…read morekind of hidden from the main Ontario street. Everyone was so friendly inside and gave us great recommendations on Quebec cheeses. Prices were great. We got a blue cheese and cheddar Quebec cheese that the lady recommended. We then got the most delicious poppy seed baguette in the market to pair with it. They don't sell wine here so we walked a block north down Ontario and found a liquor store and got a tasty but cheap bottle of wine for $13. I definitely recommended this cute market. It was pretty quiet inside so go give them some business! Located right next to the garden store on Ontario.

For example they have a sage cheddar which comes highly recommended! However they have this Dijon mustard imported from France called Fleur de Dijon... The best mustard ever. If you buy some of this mustard and bring it home and compare it to your Maillie mustard you will see it's pale in comparison. I highly recommend this place!

What is not to love? I stopped by to get a cup of coffee and pastry and I ended up with a croissant…read moreand a ham and cheese pastry. Both were delicious. Besides pastries, this place had loaves af bread and cakes. It is located in the RESO network close to the train station. There is plenty of seating adjacent to the bakery. The servers were very friendly and helpful. The following day, I was on a tour of Montreal of the Underground City and the tour guide pointed out this stall and said that it was owned and run by women.

We came across this pastry shop in the train station and couldn't resist trying a couple of their…read morebeautiful French pastries. The two we picked (pictured) were both delicious. One had a subtle lemon flavor, and the cream puff (choux) was filled with a whole hazelnut inside--a nice surprise that I loved. What stood out was that they weren't overly sweet, which made them even more enjoyable. Prices were reasonable at around $7 each, and they do accept credit cards. Service was a bit on the slow side since there was only one person working, but overall it was fine.

Can you say DIVINE? Oh my goodness this is a must try in Montreal. Are the pastries a bit pricey,…read moreyes. But, these are not your average baked goods, they represent years of a craft that has been perfected over time. The service here was amazing. The staff were more happy to walk me through their offerings and recommend a few fan favorites. The shop is also beautifully designed. Very modern with an upscale feel. Every pastry that I tried here was just perfection. No notes, simply divine.

I'm not sure how much they cost as I wasn't the one who purchased them but they were impressive. I would hope to try out their other pastries and other goods one day. But if you're looking for some food items to potentially gift of even try. Definitely a spot to check out.

Can't complain. Good selection of just about everything. Purchased the pre-made…read morehamburgers...which are JUST meat... no fillers or seasonings. Pre-seasoned lamb, chicken & beef available too. Interesting place. Never seen butchers cutting whole carcasses in front of me before. Was always hidden from view. Looks like it's also a school for butchers "to be". Young, Fun, Happy employees all cutting carcasses together... joking around.. poking fun at each other.. I like the environment. Will go back.

Boucherie Lawrence is an homage back to old style butcher shops which were a common fabric of…read moreneighbourhood life 20-50 years ago. Nowadays these places (although some exist) have become more specialized and need to charge more money. This is due to the advent of mass grocery and Costco have taken over the lions share of the meat business. Offerings here are fresh cut (aged) meat. Loads of local bottled and canned products. A small selection of fresh dairy products and what I come for the cured saucisson. Last year I spent the month of June in France and developed a semi-addiction to cured saucisson. I'm not proud of it (hence my mom and doctor warn in moderation) but this is the best offering I have found in Quebec. Pork shop (available at your local IGA) does a fine version however it's just the bit more delicious here at Lawrence. Also purchased are bottles of St Leon maple syrup. $25 a big bottle is a bit steep but it makes a wonderful gift or delicious in the morning on your pancakes or toast. Being in the heart of the Plateau then can cater to those who are willing to pay a bit more. I believe the meat shop is connected to Lawrence restaurant a few doors down which does a dandy brunch.

After brushing him aside, I looked at the wall of dried sausages hoping to spot my prize. I wanted to bring home a nice selection on the plane home to Vancouver. Wait! What the??? again. Staring back at me was a nice coating of blue mold around one of the ends of the sausages. Au Revoir!

As others have said, they also make sandwiches to go, which one can choose to eat at their little parcel shelf next to the door. The appeal of this place for me, though, is the partially-smoked and cured pork shoulder rolls they keep in the small cold case along the back wall. They're not even labelled, so you may have to ask to be pointed at them. But do ask. One of those balls of meat, simmered in a cauldron of water for 150 minutes, yields both the most densely-flavored, tastiest cold pork you'll ever put on your sideboard, and a pot of truly magnificent stock for your next pea or white bean soup. They also sell a couple of different varieties of bacon, in slabs if you wish. And there is no question too stupid for the bright lady in the baseball hat behind the cash. This is another of those little places that makes cooking my way through a Montreal winter into something I almost look forward to in summer.
