    There's a Christmas festival in our city that has these dough logs. We usually wait all year to have them. When we found this shop we knew we had to try it! They take a while to make, but they were worth the wait. We had the traditional with cinnamon sugar and it did not disappoint. The lattes were also very good.

    I happened upon this sweet little pastry shop after reading about their incredible chimney cakes. To be honest i have never heard of this Hungarian pastry. It originated in Romania's central Transylvania region. Where has this been all my life? The inside of this shop reminds me of a cute old fashioned ice cream parlor but better because you can watch your sweet pastry treat being made right before you. This made to order, cylinder like treat known as a chimney cake is crisp and doughy. Sugary on the outside and can be coated with any kind of nut of your choice before being baked to perfection. It can be eaten hot as is or filled with fresh fruit and or ice cream for an over the top decadent goodie. Once you sink your teeth into this deliciousness you will want to keep going. It's substantial in size but very very hard to resist! It's so so good!!

    I'm just gonna say it - their kouign amann was my favorite bite of my whole trip to Montreal!…read more We ordered: - kouign-amann - chocolate croissant - almond croissant The kouign-amann was perfection - came out warm, buttery, with nice layers and a sweet crisp top! 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!

    I had never heard of or tried a Kouign‑Amann (pronounced "queen-a-mahn") before, so I was really…read morelooking forward to this visit, and the reviews were absolutely right. This place was hands down a highlight of my Montréal food scene experience. The shop itself is very cute and cozy, with just two small tables by the window and a few chairs. The décor is simple, and so are your choices, which honestly works in their favor. When you step inside, you get a direct view of the bakers working their magic, which makes the experience even better. We ordered a hot chocolate, plain croissants, chocolate croissants, and a slice of the Kouign‑Amann. If you like a dark, rich hot chocolate that's not overly sweet, look no further, this is the place. As for the croissants, both the plain and chocolate versions were good but fairly standard. However, the real star was the Kouign‑Amann. It was served warm, perfectly crispy, and had just the right amount of sweetness without being overwhelming. It was so good that when I finished my slice, I went back to the counter hoping for more but they were sold out. To be fair, I arrived around 2pm and they close at 3pm. Despite that, the line moved quickly, and the staff were some of the sweetest people ever. My only regret? I only bought one slice. I'd highly recommend this place, but make sure you get there early if you want to snag a slice of Kouign‑Amann before they sell out.

    What a wonderful experience I had at this Pâtisserie Mahrousé's downtown Montreal Rue de Montagne…read morelocation! We stopped by to pick up something for my trip back home to New York. While this storefront located in the middle of office buildings, when you walk inside the absolutely beautiful decorations remove you from the urban hustle and bustle. The other Pâtisserie Mahrousé location is the original, dating back to 1970 when it was started by a Syrian pastry chef. Was eager to try their fatayer, savory pastries. Surprised to learn that they didn't sell here single, individual Fatayers, I was extremely happy the super friendly staff allowed me to mix and match to make it a pack of 6! (My choice of Fatayers included the delicious Tomato with Olives, Spinach, Cheese and round Za'atar!) Before pulling away, my brother and his wife decided to join me inside. The welcoming people behind Pâtisserie Mahrousé's counter encouragingly offered us tastings of their delicious sweets. One was a Kunafeh sweet cheese pastry, another similar to a nut filled Baklava. Their mouthwatering sweet treat selection was impressive. (Note - Many traditionally incorporate pistachios, on trend since as I've repeatedly noted "Pistachio is the new Hazelnut!") We were able to truly relax in Pâtisserie Mahrousé's comfortable window seating with brass tables facing the well designed interior instead of the modern surroundings. An effective, well thought out layout! While my brother ordered an espresso, I tried their flavorful, thick Arabic coffee. It achieved an unanticipated moment of zen for us all! Would recommend here for anybody interested in a delightful sweet or savory bite! Looking forward to my next time in Montreal when I plan on making the original Pâtisserie Mahrousé location a stop on my trip!

The Long Version: My husband and I were flaking in our hotel room after walking around all day (15km). I then had a hankering for some dessert. I did a quick search online and found this Middle Eastern bakery only 400m from our hotel room. So we headed there. The bakery is very pretty. I loved the chandeliers and painted walls and ceiling. There's a limited amount of seating, but we planned on bringing it back to our hotel anyway. Upon entering we were offered a small sample of their cream kunafe with shredded phyllo. It was very tasty. I debated getting a large piece of it, but decided to stick with my original plan which was a piece of their cheese kunafe. It was $8.50. I got it heated up. Unfortunately by the time we got back to the hotel it had cooled down a bit and the cheese wasn't as pully, lol. So my cheese pull photos are not as impressive :( Nonetheless, the kunafe was delicious. I think it would have been even better had we eaten it there. Next time! Review #74 (2025)

    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.
