This French bakery in Montreal Canada offers a variety of sweet treats, pastries and breads. They have three locations in Montreal with this one in Mont Royal their flagship. The hours are 7am to 6pm daily. We arrived before 6pm and noticed several of the desserts were half price at the end of the day so we ordered those. I had the Royal Crème Brûlée $6.74, but $3.37 with the half price discount. It was so delicious. Counter service was very nice and efficient. read more

Nice bakery in the Plateau. I was glad to see a lot of locals coming in and out. They certainly are busy. Their workflow reminds me of that at Porto's, the Cuban bakery from Burbank, California. The servers are fast. I'm no croissant expert, but the one I had here was better than the one I had at a random cafe the other day. The croissant from Toledo was airy and flaky. I had an iced americano, and it tasted great as well. The peach kouign amann was a new thing in August. I enjoyed this the most. It was so dense and not terribly sweet. The focaccia was also really good! The dough was great. This makes me think their bread must be delicious too. I would try some bread next time. I bought a package of the vanilla madeleines, but I didn't really like them. I didn't see other people buying them either, so maybe it's not just me that thinks the madeleines aren't good. Plenty of seating inside but with non-matching tables and chairs. They have large windows, so the sun makes it hot inside. Apple Pay/credit card accepted. No wifi No bathroom read more

Le Toledo is a popular bakery on Mont-Royal Avenue, a lively pedestrian street lined with cafés, bakeries, and restaurants. Several locals we met recommended it, and it's easy to see why. The bakery is quite large, with plenty of tables and seating inside, making it a comfortable spot to enjoy your treats on site. When we visited mid-afternoon, there was a short line, but it moved quickly thanks to the efficient team of staff behind the counter. Everyone was friendly, spoke both French and English, and happily explained the pastries and their ingredients. Prices are very reasonable: cookies start around $3 CAD, croissants at $2.50 CAD, and pastries like brioche and cinnamon rolls are also available. I ordered a chocolatine (pain au chocolat) for $3.25 CAD and a caramel cream cruffin for $5 CAD. Both were excellent--crispy on the outside, soft and airy on the inside, and full of flavor. If you're strolling Mont-Royal Avenue, Le Toledo is absolutely worth a stop. Grab a couple pastries to enjoy on the spot or take away--you really can't go wrong here. read more

In Mont Royal area, there are so many pastry shops that it's hard to choose which one to step into (for real) and once you do, it's even harder to decide what to order. We ended up at Le Toledo and tried a pistachio flan, a caramel cream cruffin, and a cookie. The service was quick, and they do accept credit cards. The first server we spoke to didn't speak English, but they quickly found a bilingual staff member who was helpful. Since all the pastry names and descriptions are in French, Google Translate doesn't always capture the nuances, so it's best to double-check with staff if you're unsure or have nuts allergies! As for the pastries: the cruffin was a bit on the dry side and not as flaky as I had hoped. I have eaten plenty of cruffins to say this. The cookie was tasty, while the pistachio flan was a little underwhelming--it lacked pistachio flavor and wasn't as smooth/creamy as expected. There's an area to sit indoors and some tables outside as well. I'm glad we gave it a try, but I think there are better pastry options in the area. Oh, their prices seem to be a bit higher than others. This was my 7th pâtisserie and day 3 in Montreal! read more

The best almond croissant I have ever had (and I've had a few). Very fast service. Really very good coffee. I would highly recommend this bakery. read more

We had been walking through the Plateau and needed a place for coffee and just to get off our feet. It was close to the end of the day so they didn't have a lot of sweets to offer but I managed to find an almond bun which tasted more like marzipan (which is still almond) and was just the right size to satisfy. To wash it down was a lovely matcha latte while my friend had a perfectly prepared Americano. What makes this café so enticing (besides the tasty sweets, fresh from the oven) are the windows which surround one side of the establishment. There is a bench that runs along side it, complete with little cushions for comfort. The staff was friendly and quick and I'll be back when I return home the next time. read more

Ultimately, it's their takeaway sandwiches, but their pastry, that earn Le Toledo a 5-star review. This is not to say their pastry is not enjoyable or well made, but for pastry and desserts, I prefer Les Co'pains d'abord. Still, this is a such a vibrant boulangerie in such a vibrant city, and we did have great visits. Is this place ever quiet? The seating options are interesting because they have couches, window benches with cushions and small side tables, and a big communal table with benches from which you can enjoy the constant flow of customers moving in line. The staff here seemed to be efficient and appropriately friendly, and I saw many of them multitask. The pastry highlights were chausson dejeuner, chausaon d'oeuf, gateau basque, and flan Parisienne. The others, including choco bombe, pain suisse, and biscuit choco, were decent but I probably wouldn't get again. Now the sandwiches. The bagnat poulet had big pieces of incredibly tender chicken meat with thick sources of fresh tomato on a soft roll, and the ciabathon's blend of tuna salad, rocket, and the delicious olive ciabatta was a total knockout. I hope they keep improving and stay open for a long time. read more

An amazing bakery in Montreal! This was definitely one of my favorite ones. We came in for coffee and a croissant and ended up staying to just relax for a while. They have a decent amount of seating but were actually pretty full when we came in the afternoon. And there's free WiFi so that's a bonus! I got the almond croissant cause I love almond croissants and I wasn't expecting too much but it was actually really good. It was so puffed up and jam packed with that almond filling, which I love. The only con was that the edges tasted a little burnt, but I would honestly still get it again. Overall a great bakery to pick up pastries and baked goods, there aren't too many so make sure to go early before it sells out. Coffee was also pretty good! read more

Fantastic cafe with a TON of pastry and bread options. Everything is made fresh and in-house as well. I ordered the matcha latte and it was PERFECT, and the Almond Croissant had this delicious almond paste inside - can't recommend that combo enough! The employees were quick and very helpful. There's a good amount of seating, but it's pretty popular, so you'll likely be able to grab a seat when someone leaves. Highly recommend if you're looking for a nice pastry and beverage! read more

Great cozy bakery to start the morning with a coffee and croissant. Staff is friendly, efficient, and will switch to English quickly and easily. We have grabbed a baguette to go with our DIY charcuterie as well. Must try a sandwich sometime. read more

TLDR quick review - Get the almond croissant! Probably one of the best I've had and I'm sure to always get one when I'm in the area. Their regular croissants are also great and very flaky. I recommend this too. Latte was good. Matcha here is mid. read more

Our lodging was right above Le Toledo, so my friend and I decided to check it out for breakfast on a Friday morning around 10:30. The space is large and has some seating. There was a large table in the middle but it was roped off, but so I'm not sure whether you can sit there. It sounded like their baguette won best baguette in Montreal 2 years ago according to some signs in French, so we got one to make breakfast sandwiches in our Sonder. It was only $3, which I thought was very reasonable. We also asked the employee helping us what was popular there, and she recommended the apple turnover as well as a French pastry called gateau basque, which is a pastry with almond cream inside. The apple turnover was a bit too large for us, but we did get the gateau basque to try, and boy was it good! If you like almonds, definitely get this. I'm not a huge bread person and couldn't tell whether the baguette was the best I've ever had, but it was pretty solid. It was crunchy on the outside and soft and chewy on the inside. read more

We came around noon and got the almond croissant and vegan chocolate chip cookie. Both were absolutely delicious. The cookie was crisp on the outside and chewy on the inside. The chocolate and sugar had caramelized around the edges and did not disappoint in their rich flavors. It being vegan did not take away from how good it was, which is something I find to be usually the opposite. The croissant was one of the best croissants I've ever had in my life. It was very decadent, so I was glad to have a friend to share it with. It's sweet but not too sweet and incredibly buttery. The almond was present, but subtle-- not too overpowering. The shell was light and crispy, but the inside moist and soft. I would definitely recommend checking out Le Toledo if you want to have your bakery fix! It was the first stop on our bakery hopping trip, and it was one of our favorites for sure. read more

Might this be one of the best almond croissants I've ever had? Yes. This place is incredibly popular, and for good reason. I came back twice to this place on my trip because I was literally DREAMING of the almond croissant.

An absolute treasure. Not only are the pastries outstanding (try the basque gateau, at only $4 on the best-value delicacies I've ever tasted), but the coffee is also top-tier, and I got a bag of the "Jordan" granola today- just wow. It's spectacular, chock full of beautiful grains, seeds, nuts, and (for this one- there are two granolas on offer) pieces of dark chocolate. I'd be here daily if I lived in Montreal. read more

A delightful selection of baked good. Worth a visit for the croissants. Thinking of going back and trying the rest of the menu.

Great coffee and pastries - the almond pastry is fabulous. If you can get it right out of the oven it's out of this world. Quick service - you can sit in the cafe if there is room. I would recommend this if the major bakeries are closed and you need a quick bite (Kouign Amann) On the main ave Mont-Royale E. read more

Yummy bakery. Tough to decide what to get. Croissants were nice. Nice selection of breads and sweets.

My friend got a almond croissant here and I ate a significant amount of it. It was incredible. One of the best croissants I have had. The outside is super buttery and crisp and the almond filling was flavorful and not overly sweet. It's located a nice street that was great for window shopping. Definitely worth a stop! read more

Thanks to a friends suggestion, and being next door to my favourite croissant place, it wasn't hard to locate this gem of a boulangerie. I only get their baguette, and I love it. Nice hard and crunchy crust, chewy inside, add butter or brie....bam! La vita bella! So baguette enthusiasts, do give this place a shot, maybe even their patisserie too (not really my thing) read more

Named after a Toledo scale left by a previous owner, this bakery slash coffee shop slash lunch spot opens up to a beautiful space with 14 foot ceilings and tons room for people to browse, enjoy a coffee, stop for a quick bite or even lounge on the long benches, antique chairs and poufs. There's a nice selection of breads, some light pastries, muffins, croissants and for lunch, a variety of sandwiches, vegetarian bowls, vegan bowls, salads and soups... all good bread buddies! Oh oh, and they also serve your favorite cup or coffee from Structure Roasters, new in Old Montreal. What interesting about Toledo, is the founder, Francois Barrière, came from the banking market and jumped into bakery - his first venture into the food scene, pursuing his true passion and love for bread. This said his business background does come in handy and he is backed by a solid partner: Riccardo Arnoult, former lead at Amour du Pain, adds years of experience, and lead a team of bakers and pasty chefs who's mission is to delight us with their creations. Picked up a croissant, a baguette and a small loaf of dark chocolate bread, interestingly very good with cheese. Will probably come back to try the coffee and see how this place unfolds in the coming weeks. read more

We wandered into this coffee shop, and I am glad we did. This place was not a cookie cutter type cafe. There was an impressive selection of freshly baked breads on display, pastries (both sweet and savoury), coffees/teas. They have an *extensive* list of milk alternatives for the lactose intolerant too! There was a large outdoor bench type seating at the time of my visit, and indoor seating as well. I got a savoury ham and cheese type pastry. The outside was crispy and sweet (drizzled with honey), and the inside was stuffed with a generous amount of ham. read more

Our host took us here for our first Montreal breakfast of coffee and pastries before starting our guided tour of the nearby charming neighborhood and the city. The neighborhood with multiple street closures and parking difficulty reminded me of a more genteel Brooklyn! Besides the clean, welcoming ambience, I was impressed by the high quality coffee and artisan pastries. The muffins and quiche were super yummy. Staff were very friendly. What a great way to start our Montreal visit! read more

Don't bother unless you speak French. Man behind the counter was very rude when I asked if he spoke English he muttered, ""Eh. Some." and walked away. He seemed uninterested in our business once he realized we didn't speak French. Another woman finally saw us standing there after a few minutes and came to help, but by that time all but one person in our group decided to leave. The one member of our group that stayed to order just pointed to something, paid, and left . Her flan was just okay. If you are content with just pointing, not asking questions, and going based on how things look then this bakery might work for you. If you have any questions or want to talk to someone about the options--forget it. Too many other fabulous places to bother dealing with the hassle here. It wasn't worth the rude behavior for a mediocre pastry. read more

Good coffee. Good baked goods. Liked the quiche. Service was fine. Was with group of 6 and all were happy

Pretty good coffee and pastries. I tried the almond chocolatine and small latte. The chocolatine was fresh and the almond taste was strong. It was a bit too oily and hard on the edges. The latte was milky and pretty good. The service is quick and the staff are nice. They don't have many tables inside. read more

Le Toledo - Latte and almond chocolatine - Bakeries Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

Loved the neighbourhood, murals on all the other old building. Le Toledo stood out with a clean modern exterior, but the entrance as well as the inside were welcoming, spacious and cozy. Melt in your mouth pastries and croissants , crusty bread, take-home frozen goods. Other customers were thoroughly enjoying their coffees and their foods looked and, they said, scrumptious. If possible, I would go there every day, maybe more often. Staff members smiled and helped me in French or English. read more

Delicious treats and pastries for a nice breakfast with the family! My favorite is the raisin roll (which was by far soooooo good that I'm still thinking about it)! And the sesame buns are so subtle in flavor that it's a great accompanying dish. Croissants are a bit buttery but still good! Everyone is really sweet here and the ambiance is a cute cafe vibe. Check it out for a nice sweet start to the day. read more
