Others on the other hand, do. Choose between window stools or the shareable high-top tables+stools in the middle of the shop to sit a bit and enjoy your coffee or pastry. 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.

We are nuts for almond croissants and try one almost everywhere we can find them. We had one here at Au Pain Dore (croissant amandes) and I suspect we will stop searching. One in our party said it tasted like each croissant had a stick of butter in it - they were that lush ... just like in France. While we only had a mini-rustique bread bun (3 stars the usual) and the almond croissant (5 stars at least), we were delighted in this little bakery. Nice selection of baked goods, they are constantly replenishing the shelves, and you can grab a coffee or hot chocolate to boot. For our go to bakeries, this one would be on top.

Boulangerie Guillaume caught my eye unexpectedly. I did not have this place on my list of bakeries…read moreto try while in Montreal, but as I was walking in the area I noticed many people holding their distinctive yellow bags. I was intrigued, and since I can always go for some carbs I decided to head in and check this place out. Unlike most bakeries I visited, Boulangerie Guillaume has a much more modern look, and is larger than a standard bakery. Walking in, I was immediately greeted by stairs which led up to the main production area. All of the bakes were arranged on the back-wall perimeter of the space separated from the pedestrians by a glass wall. The color scheme was mostly black to contrast the bright yellow of the bags and signage. The arrangement of the bakes, combined with the color scheme and modern aesthetics, resulted in a stunning, visually striking presentation. I wasn't too hungry, but I can always go for some sweets and their date square looked good. I went with that, along with a cappuccino. The square was delicious - the dates were high quality, and the crust underneath was moist while maintaining its integrity. The cappuccino was also good, a great complement to the bake. Service was efficient, and overall I had a great experience at Boulangerie Guillaume. I definitely want to return to explore more of their menu - I noticed they had some savory items so perhaps for some lunch. Definitely one of the best bakeries I visited in Montreal.

The woman behind the counter was absolutely lovely, taking care to make sure our order was exactly right. The café au lait was exceptional. In my experience, many pastry shops serve only mediocre coffee, so this was a wonderful surprise. The pastries were everything you'd hope for--buttery, crisp on the outside, and soft and tender inside. We couldn't have been happier! The warm, cozy ambiance made the whole experience even more enjoyable.

I honestly regret not getting more to take home with me! The croissants were also really good - super buttery, it was making the brown bag oily but not in the gross way lol Parking was tough when we went bc some streets around it were closed but it was fine after a couple rounds of driving. Would recommend it to anyone visiting Montreal!

TL;DR/The Short Version: Cute bakery in Griffintown. Cheese…read moreCroissant was legit. Their Chocolate Swiss Bread was good too. 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)

If you're craving some carbs on the weekend, you might encounter a bit of a line. I visited Sunday…read moremorning before 9am and we were 6 people waiting in line but no worries the line moves quite fast as service is also quite fast. 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.

Looking for a place for a nice sweet treat and heard about Automne's Cardamom buns, Having lived in…read moreNorthern Europe for many years, I do enjoy my cardamom sweet treats so decided to check it out. Besides a nice in-house baked bread selection, Automne offers wonderful mouth-watering sweet pastries and savory baked items. So hard to chose! Along with my Noeud à La Cardamome (a.k.a. Cardamom roll topped with pearl sugar), I ordered a Roulé Fraise Rhubarb (a.k.a. Strawberry Rhubarb Danish) and a Matcha Oat Latte. Able to relax outdoors in their section with cafe tables. One little surprise, the Danish's drizzle was not caramel but peanut butter flavored. Typically not a fan of peanut butter, but the drizzle was small enough not to distract from the rest of the yummy pastry. All was fantastic! Definitely would recommend Automne and plan to keep it in mind the next time I'm in Montreal!

We visited on a Sunday around 3 p.m., and unfortunately, the croissants and tarts were already sold out. The only items left were a few cookies and a chocolatine (pain au chocolat), so I ordered the chocolatine for $3.75 CAD. The bakery itself is very compact. Inside, there aren't tables for sitting, just a small counter to stand at, but there are a few outdoor tables right by the door. The staff were friendly and helpful in explaining the items available. They also mentioned that weekends usually bring more variety, including fruit tarts, while weekdays focus mainly on croissants. The chocolatine I tried was good--crispy on the outside, soft and tender inside, exactly what you'd expect from a quality bakery. I wouldn't say it was the best I've ever had, but it was still enjoyable. If you're in the neighborhood, Automne Boulangerie is worth a visit, especially earlier in the day or on a weekend to get the full range of their croissants and tarts.
