Boulangerie Le Pain dans les Voiles — Restaurant in Montreal

Exceptional quality, taste, service and good prices. Great for a weekend visit for a light breakfast or lunch or for coffee/deserts .

Bread: Let's start with their bread. Even a regular loaf of whole wheat or white bread tastes great. Baked fresh and so good you'll catch your self eating a few slices before reaching home. I have a hard time convincing myself to buy supermarket bread instead.

Desserts: I see very few places that do brownies well. This bakery does a heavenly one and they also have other great pastries including exceptional croissants and a great queen Elizabeth cakes.

Lunch: They tend to have some seasonal items and daily specials which are always worth trying. I would even drop here for lunch given their good daily soup/salad. Their sandwiches are a hit and miss but are still fresh and healthy.

Coffee: Not that good. Their milk based espresso drinks are lacking as well and are at times poorly done and inconsistent. For coffee, you might want to visit St.Henri's branch @ the jean talon market instead.

Service: The service is always polite.

The only real problem with the place is the...

Some of the pastries are quite good: chocolatine, croissant, abricotine. Go for these classics or the breads and you won’t be disappointed.

The prepared food has been mostly bad. They try different things which is good of them, often cycling out the bad food they have invented. Notable terrible things I have eaten here: breakfast croissant with egg inside (had to throw out, something I never do); grilled cheese (surprisingly had raw red onion, raw green pepper and a sweet jam inside, none of the 6 people we came with would take a second bite; a yogurt bowl with mint and granola and dried fruit and jam that just didn’t...

Cute place, nice decor and all. Their roulé au praliné was not bad. Would try their pain aux raisins next if I have a chance.

But when I ordered a chilled cheese I got a cheese sandwich without the grill. Had to go back and ask them to grill it. Glad I checked. The guy didn't even suggest or ask if I'd like them to grill/warm it up or not so i assumed they'd take care of it. I'm not sure if I should've specified I'd like a grilled cheese, grilled. Not impressed with the service at all. Some of the staff didnt seem like they wanted to do their job. Also their selection of bakeries and sandwiches seemed to be very limited. Only one sandwich with protein and very basic (ham &...
