This is a very consistent bakery chain in Montreal. There are lots of pastries, breads, baked goods, prepared foods, sandwiches and marmalades to choose from. I got some strawberry rhubarb marmalade for my mother in law and the price was very reasonable when compared to other stores in the area. The staff was friendly and the check out process was quick. read more

There are a few of these bakeries in the city and honestly, they have some of the best pastries! There were so many different baked goods to choose from whether you want a baguette, croissants, cakes, and more! There are even savory sandwiches too. There's also a fridge with ham and other goods that are great for bringing home for a picnic or to make your own sandwiches. There's also a seating area which a good amount of tables and seats! I especially loveeee their croissants. I've tried a few of their pastries and baked goods and I gotta say that their almond croissant is probably one of the best ones I've ever had. It's hugeee and they put so much of that almond filling inside. It was delicious and so well priced! Would come back just for their almond croissant but definitely check out any of their locations! Make sure to go early to get the almond croissants or baguettes cause they definitely sell out (happened to me). read more

DEEELicious, from my first taste visiting the bakery in 2011 on our annual trip to Montreal from Orlando. The "enrobed" sesami seed French bread is the best for making sandwiches. A ton of sesami seeds on it, all around it. Their creme boule (sp?) is wonderful. Great almond croissants, and regular croissants, too. Mmmmmmmmm! I can't wait to get back to Montreal. Ciao! read more

great place to go but they can't tell me when I can get a hot chocolate croissant...that's sad. also,mim think they keep serving pastries that are days old and I for one want fresh. read more

Nice and spacious, this bakery has seating for weary travelers. It is an awesome place to cool down or warm up, grab something to drink and some dessert. Lots of people walking by and stuff happening. I grabbed a tart and a soda (hence no pic), and the tart was legit good. I was happy and surprised because this is a franchise, but they make their tarts very well. I can't remember if I grabbed a croissant, but the tart was memorable. Wouldn't mind popping in again. read more

During several holiday gatherings, I've had their cakes before and absolutely love their cheesecake. I finally had the opportunity to visit their location in Mont Royal. Because it's close to the holiday season, they had their Christmas log cakes available and all on display already. This is a cute little shop with many baked goods and cake options beautifully displayed. As always, their cakes are fresh and beautiful. We ate it that afternoon and it never disappoints. My only feedback is I wish they taped up the individual cake slices to the bottom box so it doesn't slide around during transport. read more

Excellent bakery. Beautiful food. Several nice pastry choices. Also has seating inside and restroom.

They are (almost) every where, they serve great selection of bread,pastries, anything delicious that you can think of. I highly recommend trying this out during the weekdays as they get super busy in the weekend. They also offer free wifi, comfortable seats (if you wanna work /read). read more

We stopped by this Boulangerie Premiere Moisson for breakfast. A friend picked up a box of sweets she had ordered, and got me a plain croissant. (She offered to buy a chocolate one, but it's tough to take sweets early in the morning. Really. Don't read into that.) My croissant was delicious: Fresh, flaky, and all-around tasty. read more

I don't know how this establishment has four stars. When I was in Montreal I wandered into this café, thinking to myself any café will be delicious in Montreal, but boy was I wrong. My chai latte tasted like hot water with milk, and all of the pastries tasted generic read more

Great little bakery/cafe right in the heart of Plateau Mont Royal. Everything here looks amazing, but obviously I couldn't try everything. Service here is excellent, you can tell the employees here actually care about their customers. The atmosphere here is very chill and relaxing, it's definitely a place where you could stay for hours just to sip a hot drink and be on your laptop or tablet. read more

This is a cosy little bakery/cafe, five mins walk from the Mont Royal metro station. I love going here for a cup of coffee, days when I am working from home or with a book during the evenings. They have very nice baked goods, but I personally love their creme brûlée!! It always hits the spot and is consistently great!! Cute spot, if you want to spend some me-time, looking out the window with your coffee!! read more

Great boulangerie experience. Wide variety of both sweet and savory for sale (pastries, jams, duck confit, quiches, etc). Apparently this is a chain, but no matter. It reminds me a bit of Panera - a place to read & study (as one patron reading an anatomy text could attest), a home away from home! read more

The ham and cheese sandwich was okay. I would just come back for the coffee and croissants. read more

Love this place. I mostly come for fresh bread in the morning, but I also love their other baked goods (e.g. apple pie), awesome desserts (my favourite is the lemon tart) and they have good coffee to go with that! Recently I bought their chocolate as a gift, and it was a hit. Did I say it's a great place? They also have specials sometime - worth checking out. So far I only have good things to report! read more

After a day of a good 9 miles of exploration on foot, my hubby and I had just purchased bagels down the street at St-Viateur to bring home. We desperately wanted to go to one of the really famous bakeries p, but we could barely move. We were pooped. And this place was here. It smelled good. And we wanted pastries. This fit the bill perfectly! My husband got a chocolate croissant, I got a almond croissant with chocolate. Delicious, but easily something I could get in my home city in the US with better quality. Is it as good as some other places in town? No. Can you tell it's a chain? Yes. But, if you're hungry, and it's close by, it's pretty good! Plus, they take credit cards! read more

What a gem! My friends and I only stumbled upon this place because we were waiting in line to have brunch at Restaurant L'Avenue, on the next block. Première Moisson is one of the cutest bakeries/cafés I've ever been to. The store is packed with fresh and delicious baked goods, sandwiches, chocolate, and more. The hot drinks are good, and the service is excellent. This location has seating, though not all locations do. Next time I am in Montréal, this is going to be my first stop! read more

Chocolate chip loaf was absolutely delicious. We had it for few days and it tasted just as good the next day. I tried few other pastries. They were just ok. Chocolate almond croissant, that everyone recommends, just wasn't good. I also wasn't impressed with cinnamon roll. However I would go back for that amazing loaf. read more

We stopped in here to grab a quick breakfast before heading out on a bike tour. When you walk in, the amount of pastries and bread is almost overwhelming. It's really beautiful. The walls are lined with canned goods, jams, ready-to-go meals, and drinks. The cases are filled to the brim with every kind of bread and pastry you can imagine. I wish I would have had more time to browse. I decided on a coffee and pain au chocolat, while others in my party had the pasta salad, quiche, and other coffee drinks. We enjoyed our breakfast here, and the employees were very helpful and friendly. read more

It's what you expect it to be. Clean and well run. Great bread, pastries, sandwiches, etc... Baguettes from heaven! Forget those tasteless baguettes from the super markets. This is where it's it. read more

Popped in for an almond croissant. A denser croissant than most, but still very yummy. Really high quality ingredients.

Love this place. Great sandwiches, fresh bread, nice staff who know their stuff. I have no complaints other than the fact that they seem to run out of baguette more often than not. My only other complaint is that I can't crawl into the cake displace and cuddle with the desserts (I've asked) read more

Cafe/boulangerie - efficient with service. Very busy location. Can take out or sit in. Cafe counter faces inward towards boulangerie so almost like cafeteria like experience l. Self seating. Place to put dishes when done. Tried the feta pretzel with cappuccino. Nothing extremely amazing. They did have a good standard for their ingredients- listing the authenticity of their product. Was cool just to people watch. Lots of people just coming in for regular coffee and baked goods then going about their day. Staff pleasant and friendly :). Very clean environment. read more

Beautiful place to sit and linger. Great people watching. Wonderful chocolate pecan cookies: large and deeply flavored.

We all know their bread is fantastic, and I enjoy their pastries too. However, tonight I tried a sandwich and a side pasta salad and wasn't impressed. The pasta salad was bland and too oily, and the cheese and spinach sandwich was pretty decent, but mostly because of the delicious croissant and not cause of the filling. Will stick with their pastries and bread, nothing else. read more

Pate is good. Everything else is old. Bakery goods look and tasted old. Must have been sitting in the glass case for few days. We asked for fresh baguette and they gave us old, hard, stale one. French are known for their baguette. Don't know what happened with this one. Seems like a lot of bakeries have pastries that had been sitting out for days :( read more

As a newbie to Montreal, I had no idea where to go for fine baked treats. The good reviews on Yelp lead me to this place, and I was not disappointed. The almond croissant was the best I have ever had. Rich and buttery, it was hard to not go back and get more. I also tried the oatcake, which was not as moist as I had hoped; I'm not upset, though, since it was similar to more traditional recipes, and tasted phenomenal! I only give it 4 stars because I somehow managed to get pain au chocolat instead of the cinnamon roll I asked for... it may have been my miscommunication, of course. Still, that mistake was to my benefit, since it was amazing. Overall, I highly recommend this place. read more

A beautifully modern chain for breakfast with the greatest amount of pastries and sandwiches and specialties I've ever seen. When we first stepped inside, we were simply dazzled. We ended up coming here twice instead of venturing to a new brunch place because we liked it so much. Coat hangers were a great touch and the sandwiches were plenty. read more

Blueberry danishes are amazing! This is my favorite bakery in Montreal. I have never been disappointed. Oh, also try their creme brule! Yum!

bad croissants, not to my taste... I don't understand how those can even be compared to the ones from Pain dore... not buttery, dry, not chewy.... good point: raspberry macaron cake is really good hot chocolate: worst than at Tim Horton's!!!!! read more

I really like this Premier Moisson for picking up a sandwich on my way to the metro. The staff are friendly and efficient, the sandwiches tasty and pretty averaged priced. The store itself is really pretty, well thought out and brimming with deliciously tempting goodies anywhere you look, whether they be sweet (cakes! cookies!), savory (sausages! terrine!) or carbalicious (bread!). read more

if we didn't have a life changing croissant and kouign amann on our last day, Montreal's boulangerie and patisserie chain would've gotten 5 stars. there was nothing that we didn't get that was just ok from the baguette and chocolate brioche. if we had them in SD baking the same exact pastries and breads we would be more than extremely happy. its just the life changing place was not from this planet,... but strangely enough... it just happened to be on the same street not too far away. read more

Sure, they have pretty good pasties but not necessarily numero uno in this neighbourhood. However, I'm becoming a big fan their lunch specials which are just a little more expensive than a McDonald's combo and come with a soup, meat serving, salad, and even a yummy desert. It's always super quick and fresh and hot. I've only dealt with management once when they got a cake order wrong, but they were very classy about resolving. The area when you can sit is very sunny and one of the best places to people watch on Mt-Royal. Conclusion: great alone or with company meal or coffee/snack, awesome quick lunch spot for winter with great variety day-in day-out read more

Dropped in yesterday to get a baguette, it was quite busy for 5pm with the line nearly out the door. They still had lots of different breads, muffins and tarts left. And a variety of sandwiches too. The baguette was delicious, crusty on the outside soft in the middle. We popped back for coffee and lunch the next day however decided against the coffee as they don't have a proper coffee machine just an automatic one. My husband got the ham and butter baguette and I got the salmon, avocado and Orange on a multigrain baguettes with a small Italian vegetables on the side. The bread on my sandwich was lovely, dense and crusty. We then got a pecan tart and citron tart to go. Both were delicious and the crust was melt in your mouth. The reason I'm not giving 5 stars is due to the price, $9 for a salmon sandwich ...and nearly $4 for a plain baguette is a little steep. read more
