The verdict

Go for a morning pastry stop on the Plateau, ideally Tuesday to Thursday when the Saturday line is not a factor. Order a butter croissant and one filled or savoury one. Call ahead to check Thanksgiving Monday, since no holiday hours are posted.

Tastet and Time Out both cover it
Wide viennoiserie range including a vegan croissant

Why maybeGood editorial backing and a live official site, but Oct 12 hours are unconfirmed and a listing flagged it closed at one point.

How much we'll spend

$$$$

No prices published on the official site; listings show only a $ to $$ range.

Our estimate from posted prices, CAD, before tax and tip. Québec purchases carry the 5% federal GST plus the 9.975% Québec Sales Tax (QST, TVQ in French): 14.975% combined on taxable items. Tourisme Montréal: it is customary to tip restaurant servers, taxi drivers and hairdressers 15% of the bill, before taxes. Bellhops, porters and doormen generally get at least $2 per bag or service; coffee and food counters often have a tip cup by the register.
