Reviews
One of the best bakeries with good croissants and even better pastries. The Kouign Amman and chocolate eclair are also worth trying. They have maintained decent prices despite the inflation everywhere else. We always end up buying a lot of cakes during the holiday season from here!
Great find in Outremont! We ordered a brioche des rois and it was fantastic! Light, citrusy and sweet with candied fruit, it was a hit all around. Also tried their croissants and while very very crispy on the ends, they were just buttery and flaky enough. Prices are fair for quality and service was great!
Lescurier has a reputation for making good croissant. I recently tested this and they are indeed, some of the very best I have tasted in this country.
3 days ago, on my last day of a week-long business trip to Montreal, I visited their shop on Van Horne just after 8:00 AM.
I purchased a cake box of croissants, chocolate croissants, raspberry croissants, almond croissants, chocolatines, a raisin danish and a chausson aux pommes for good measure.
The box travelled home with me on a 4-hour flight, squished and jostled on the single square foot (or less) available space in front of a standard cattle class seat. Luckily it did not get trampled.
Amazingly, the croissants and associated pastries all survived without too much damage.
As croissants go, these are BIG. You get your money's worth. They are unashamedly made with butter. One minute in a hot toaster oven is enough to revive all the aroma within.
They are flaky and light. They are tasty. Simple goodness!
Every pastry in the box I brought back home lived up to expectation.
Worth every penny, worth every bit of the effort to travel with that awkward cake box, even in an economy seat.
If you travel to Montreal, do yourself a favor: treat yourself to one or more Lescurier pastries. I cannot say it better than that.
The croissants are always large, buttery, and flaky. The best French bakery in Montreal in my opinion!
I rated it 4, compared to other local fresh bread makers, otherwise it has great fresh loaf of bread. I liked it.
Delicious chocolate and other desserts but the employees can be rude. My partner and I stopped going here due to one female employee acting very annoyed/exasperated with us on several occasions. Decided to stop here on my way home today for a chocolatine (which was delicious) but she was there, still sighing and rolling her eyes. Unfortunate.
⚠️ Editing this several months later to say that despite the rude employee still somehow working here, my partner and I decided to come here occasionally for their bread and delicious pastries. Not gonna let a grouchy person ruin a good thing for us anymore 😊 Edited 3 stars to 4 and adding photos.
Oh, and the coffee eclairs? To die for.
Tried a chocolate mousse cake and it was pretty good although I think it could be better. I like the chocolate icing to be relatively solid instead of gooey and prefer the mousse lighter, but it was still good and I liked the crunch at the bottom of the cake. Good variety of pastries, good prices. I'll come back to try other things.
The almond croissant was one the best i have ever tried.
I also tried Kouign Amman, which was so tasty and so buttery. Although the first time it was better, this time it was a bit too chewy.
They have some kind of puff pastry with fruits on it, it is usually not my favorite but this one was much better than expected.
The shop is very small, they also have some cheese and charcuterie.
All in all, I loved it! I am very happy to find this place. The young guy who helped us was also very nice.
