Pastries were extremely underwhelming. The plain croissant was incredibly bad, no flavor and dry / cardboard-like texture. The pistachio croissant was the best of the bunch in terms of flavor, but it was still just mediocre. The almond croissant lacked flavor. There's also no seating in the shop (some older reviews mention upstairs seating, but that no longer exists). read more

Super super cute place! So many options. Coffee was good, croissant was very good! They have a latte making station as well. Everything was super fresh! read more

This was always one of my first stops in Montreal. It used to be absolutely delicious and beautifully charming but this franchise has been completely ruined. The new locations have no soul, and are more like automated vending machines. They have destroyed their loyal customer base, have no more proper coffee bars and nothing looks or tastes even remotely the same. In a world where they could have spent profits to improve their e-commerce and build a proper functioning website, they decided to turn each location into a "24/7" Canadian Amazon Fresh. Terribly disappointing. read more

More of a self-serve bakery but we encountered friendly and courteous service every time we stopped by. So much flakiness and buttery goodness in each bite of their croissants. Lots of pastries, baked goods, and drinks to pick up on-the-go. read more

I was really excited to get their pistachio croissant cause they were one of the few bakeries I've seen that has it. We ordered a pistachio croissant and coffee and took it upstairs to enjoy. Love that there's seating upstairs, with several tables too! AND there's free WiFi so it's a great spot to get some work done or just enjoy a casual tea time with some friends. Unfortunately, I didn't enjoy the pistachio croissant as much. It was the most expensive croissant I've gotten in Montreal (although not pricey at all compared to NYC) and smaller than the croissants I've gotten from other bakeries and patisseries in Montreal. It also didn't have as much of the pistachio filling as I had expected. However, the coffee was pretty good. If I came again, I would skip on the pistachio croissant and get one of their other pastries or breads. read more

Baked goods aren't my "thing" but, with my airbnb basically next door, they quickly became my thing. I can confirm: living next door to Mamie Clafoutis should basically come with a warning from the Surgeon General. Day one the line was long and slow but I appreciated that a worker carried my tray of coffee drinks and pastries to the pleasant upstairs seating area for me. It was such a Canadian nicety, one that would never happen in the US. Although I enjoyed their croissants and their almond croissants, by day 5 I had moved on. My favorite thing, a total surprise to me, was some sort of flaky pastry filled with thinly sliced apples. Pastry people will know what it's called but I do not. After the first day, I consumed all baked goods from my apartment which was probably wise because if continued to eat at the site itself I'd be terribly inclined to over-order. If you can book an airbnb beside Mami Calfoutis I guarantee it'll exponentially increase your odds of loving Montreal, already a city I found difficult to fault. read more

Delicious stuff! We were just passing by and looking for some dessert after dinner. Stopped by here, got what we liked and ate in our car. My husband liked his pastry so much, he went back and got more for the road. read more

I was incredibly disappointed. This used to be a great place where one could find a broad selection of authentic delicious French pastries and then enjoy them on site in a relaxed comfortable setting. Now it's turned into something else. No real seating for customers. No bathroom. And serve yourself. I suppose it's a way to save money but I won't be going back. Sad!! read more

Saw this bakery while walking back to our rental and it looked pretty good. We decided to stop in and try some of the bread and pastry. The croissant and pastries were flaky and light. We ate some of the twisted baguette with some soft cheese for snack - it tasted great and was crunchy on the outside and soft in the middle as it should be. It was a good find. read more

Inside this landmark bakery on St.Denis you'll find a large glass cases overflowing with artisanal breads, pastries, tarts, pies, and cookies. You'll need a minute to compose yourself and decide what to get. Of course, their croissants have a loyal following, but I spied their blue cheese and walnut ficelle, the last remaining one in the basket on an early weekday afternoon. That has to be a good sign, so I purchased it, along with a latte to go. I warmed it up the next morning to have with my morning coffee. The dough is chewy and dense, the walnuts provided a wonderful textural component, and the blue cheese was ripe and rich. I had made a great choice! Their bakery has an assortment of prêt à manger items (sandwiches, salads), packaged merengues and Easter chocolates, and a small selection of imported foods. A sit-in section is located up a small flight of stairs to the rear of the counter, so be mindful if mobility issues are a concern. read more

What a welcome place on a cold blustery day. It smells divine and their baked goods are lovely. I am having the raspberry cookie. The bread looks amazing.

It's safe to say that the hype is real! We ordered French baguettes, almond croissants, almond chocolate croissants, chocolate croissants and a ham and cheese petite quiche. Service was very quick and our order was repeated back to us to ensure accuracy. If you climb a flight of stairs you see this cute and cozy seating area tucked away in the back. Everything was so delicious. My favorites were the quiche, almond croissant and French baguette. Definitely check this place out if you're searching for an authentic French bakery. There's free street parking before 1pm on Sundays. read more

At Mamie, the viennoiseries are on the bigger side. The croissants, fluffy and flaky, have a wonderful buttery aroma without being greasy. The chocolatine was a revelation! It's stuffed with good quality dark chocolate. The one that melts when you bite into it. And the amount of chocolate is satisfying. My mouth is watering just by thinking about it. :P They have a nice seating area upstairs with small tables, a communal table, sofas, with a peak on the kitchen downstairs. It's definitely worth to stop by! read more

There are several Mamie Clafoutis stores around Montreal....we stopped at this one to get a croissant and we were not disappointed....the croissant was flaky and delicious. If you are not from France or Quebec, you probably have not had a GREAT croissant...check them out while you are her. Mamie Clafoutis was created in 2008, by Nicolas, pastry chef and Joseph, baker, originally from France. They moved to Montreal to build their dream, committed to find and share their fond childhood memories. The first bakery opened its doors in Outremont, now there are several around...YUM !!!!!!!!! read more

Fabu-leux! Oui friggin Oui! Everything, EVERYTHING, you want in a bakery when you're visiting Montreal. Old school, *not* hipster, breads galore, this is MY vibe. I went for the Bleu Cheese Baguette (Excusez-moi for not knowing the proper name ). KNEW that sucker was the right choice! Everything I'm looking for in a breakfast-- minimal, finger-food, savory AF, texturey goodness. Hubz partook in the cheese & almond croissants, and was happy as a clam. Can't speak for le café, but theyz gots it. read more

Ouch! This bakery has taken a nose dive. It used to have a wider selection, a seating area upstairs and personalized counter service. It's basically like a Paris Baguette at this point - grab and go. I went literally on the first day upon reopening after their summer vacation. The date bar actually had a kind of freezer burned taste. It seems that this bakery is just the latest victim of the extractive economy of cutting corners in terms of quality and service to save money. A shame. read more

Oh Mon Dieu. Must I say any more? I've only ever had one dessert here in the two times I've visited Montreal, but it is one that I will never forget. The Oh Mon Dieu is one of the most delicious pastries I've ever had - a chocolate croissant with creamy, chocolately filling and drizzled with chocolate sauces. So crispy, so gooey, absolutely can't resist it! It's basically just a chocolate-lover's dream. Make sure you go early in the day because they are definitely going to run out of the good stuff by the end of the day. read more

Oh mon dieu!!!! For you non French speakers that translates to "OMG"! We were walking all around this morning taking pictures of colorful historic homes and murals and the bladders were in need if you catch my drift. We saw this bakery and they were kind enough to let us use their restroom which was spotless. Afterwards we grabbed a ham and cheese on a homemade baguette, a chocolate decadent pastry and a raspberry white chocolate scone. We shared these goodies and totally enjoyed every bite. Should have taken photos. Highly recommend a stop here. read more

We came for the pistachio croissants and were not disappointed!!! Of course, the numerous amounts of bread that can be seen in the front of the store looked delicious, but my friends and I heard many great things about the croissants. I was enticed by the chocolate pistachio croissant and got one for myself, but I sampled my friends' regular pistachio croissant and I liked this one a little better. Both were honestly HEAVENLY. If you're in Montreal, you need to stop by this bakery. I'd love to try their other pastries next time. read more

After reading this place has one of the best croissants in Montreal, decided to cross it off my list. Ordered the plain and the pistachio croissants. The plain croissant was really good. However, the pistachio croissant (main reason why I came to Mamie Clafoutis) was too sweet for me. My friends ordered the chocolate pistachio croissant and a pastry with raisins. They said one was too sweet and the latter one was plain tasting. read more

My bestie picked me up and took me on a short errand run and we stopped by Mamie Clafoutis to grab some snacks. we heard great things about their pistachio croissant and it was very much enjoyed by my father (I'm not a big fan of non-plain croissants). We all really loved the flan, loved the texture and wasn't too sweet! I could've done without the canelé but I was a lil greedy when I was purchasing the pastries. Everything was delicious and sweet, I would come again and try more of their selection of pastries!! read more

Chocolate. Pistachio. Croissant. Get it, and you most certainly will be on cloud nine. Be sure to get a number right when you walk in the door. It can be chaotic and hard to spot the red spool of numbers beyond the small entryway. The bread display and more importantly tastes were out of this world. They had samples of a fluffy, slightly frosted cake, and we also got levain bread and a meat and pickled smaller, flatter bread. Textures and flavors were awesome. That croissant, though. We'll be talking about it for weeks! Had to dock a star for the sweltering seating area. Most seats were also not very comfortable, perhaps over used by now. Take it to go! read more

DELICIOUS! i had an abricotine from here that was wonderful - the croissant was flaky, the custard was soft and tasty, and the fruit added a little bit of tang. i also had a focaccia that i nibbled at over a couple hours while exploring the city. it was really quite close to a pizza between the generous amount of melted cheese and the thick-cut tomatoes. extremely tasty stuff. i will caution that the focaccia is quite oily, and the oil bleeds through the paper bag they give you - worth asking for a double-bag or bringing your own plastic one. the inside is your standard cute french café and the staff is friendly. read more

Hoooooolyyyyyyyy....this place is legit. Located within the quirky Plateau Mont-Royal is this quaint yet rustic bakery. Immediately upon entering you are greeted with an amazing aroma of baked goods. The smell is out of this world. They have a wide selection of various baked goods that are baked fresh on the spot. The store is really warm inside because they have the ovens going all day long. I opted for the pistachio croissant as it seemed really unique to this place...I haven't seen pistachio croissants anywhere so I had to try it. The croissant was delicate and buttery, but so satisfying with the pistachio paste inside. It was amazing! They also have almost croissants, chocolatines, quiche, fruit tarts and more! Unfortunately they don't have AC, but it's still a sweet spot to check out! read more

Fantastic!!! Simply put, this French-style bakery is a gem. While traveling I try to avoid the tourist traps and seek out the places locals go. This fit the bill perfectly. Mamie Claufotis is the place where locals flock. There was a long line and we took a number at ticket dispenser just inside the door. It was actually a blesssing in disguise because the wait gave my friend and I a few minutes to decide. I went with an almond croissant and pan du chocolate. We ordered in French but switched to English when we flubbed up what we wanted to say at the end of our order. but I must say I was happy with the servicem. The staff member serving us was kind and never condescending despite our mistakes. We wanted to order in and eat upstairs, but that was not communicated so we took our take-out order upstairs and found a quaint little cafe. We visited in the afternoon so there was sufficient seating and a quiet and calm ambience. Plenty of magazines are availavle and you brush up on your French skills through culinary and other topics. When you head upstairs you are offered a cool view down into the bakery. It was fascinating to see the bakers at work even in the afternoon preparing their delicacies. So getting to the food... The Almond croissant wss simply delectable. I have never had such a light, flaky, sweet treat at the perfect temperature. It was slightly warm still and the layers flaked away essily. It paired perfectly with my cafe au lait. Of course I couldn't limit myself just one treat... The pan du chocolate was equally tasty with the chocolate slightly warm and the bread light and flaky as well. I prefered this to the same order at a different bakery nearby. And I would ddfinitely choose this locals over others for the quality of their baked goods. I'm jealous of the locals who have access to such a wonderful bakery. I wish I had the same ability to shop at local, expert bakeries that create high quality products!! read more

Mamie Clafoutis - Heaven in a croissant! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

We didn't try any of their bread, but their pastries are rich, flaky and delicious! We went with the pistachio chocolatine, the ham & cheese, as well as a few coffees. First off, cash only. Selections: a ton of bread, and mostly pastries of croissant types. They had some mini quiche options as well as a ham & cheese and bacon, egg and cheese, as well. The pastry had a pistachio mouse/creme with a ton of delicious chocolate. The most chocolate I've had in a pastry, ever and I enjoyed it all. If I could go back in time, I actually would have gone straight chocolate and nixed the pistachio. It was too much and made the pastry almost moist. The jamon and fromage on croissant, slightly heated was delicious but was smothered in mayo. WHY?! Without mayo it would have been perfect. Coffees were ok. Think diner coffee. Overall, grab a pastry filled with the most chocolate you've ever seen in a pastry, a fresh baked loaf of bread, and call it a day. read more

Probably one of the best croissants I have ever had in my life, and every other bakery I've tried pale in comparison! We were staying in the St. Denis area and found this gem on a rare occasion where there was no line. I ordered a butter croissant and my partner ordered a pain au chocolat. Both were absolutely devine and very reasonably priced. They also had a deli counter and some really interesting cooking sauces, along with a large range of freshly baked breads and baguettes. A must visit if you're in the area, and I can't wait to go back! read more

Boo Boo and I came here after dinner at omnivore. We got an almond and pistachio crissoint to-go as our dessert. I saved my almond crissoint for breakfast the next day. The crissoint we're banging.

Lucky, I brought cash. read more

Took a trip out to Montreal, QC for the first time last week. Let's say Dan and I made a point to stop here first and end the trip here! From the photos on Yelp I knew I wanted to try that beautiful looking pistachio croissant. It was love at first bite!! We ordered one plain pistachio and one with pistachio and chocolate. Best croissant we've ever had!!! Don't worry our 25,000 steps a day helped burn it off! You can't be on a diet in Montreal, QC because their baked goods and food are just that good!! We brought two nice older ladies from our B&B here and they ordered their blue cheese and walnut baguette. They let us try it, amazing flavor. We can't wait to return to this hidden gem and try new things. The seating area upstairs is nice and modern. You can even look down at the kitchen and watch the bakery chefs create things! I love this bakery in so many ways... read more

This place is so legit for café/ dessert/ pastries that I would go out of my way to visit it again. There were so many choices of pastries that it took me forever to choose. We finally settled and splurged on three pastries: the sponge cake, the oh mon dieu and some kind of maple pastry. Sponge cake: SO FLUFFY, so moist, so simple but so tasty! Hands down one of the best things on the menu. Oh mon dieu: the name says it all. Chocolate filled croissant with a twist. The maple pastry: the most underwhelming of our choices, but it was still indulgent: crunchy and very flaky. I had a delightful experience, great and interesting conversation with my friend and really enjoyed my time here. read more

Came here right before driving back to the states. I ordered an almond croissant and a vienoisse at chocolat(like a brioche log with chocolate chips).

My friend got the Mamie kougn ammann which was excellent. read more

My new policy is an establishment cannot earn 5 Star rating if they do not accept credit cards. All over Montrèal this has become common practice. It's annoying. In my opinion retailers should just accept all cards and offset any card company fees with an up charge. Off the soapbox. The artisan quality at this very French boulangerie is evident. You can see it for yourself as you walk across the catwalk to the dine-in area upstairs. Their dedication to handmade and fresh is outstanding. All of our pastries were great, but the Chocolate-Pistachio was notably OUTSTANDING. Bon appétit! read more
