The best éclairs in Montreal

Montreal is known for having some of the best pastry shops in the country, so it’s no surprise it also boasts some of the best éclairs. The custard-filled choux pastries are the icing on the proverbial pâtisserie.

Les gourmandises de Marie Antoinette uses only the best French chocolate – 80 per cent dark Valrhona chocolate – to fill and garnish their éclairs. It’s a mouthful of luxury.

De Froment et de Sève serves up some of the best éclairs in town. A glass case filled with delectable pastries is there to tempt you upon arrival, and you’ll want to savour each one of them, but we recommend the traditional éclair au chocolat. Simple perfection.

Maison Christian Faure

Maison Christian Faure not only serves up some delicious varieties of éclairs – the traditional, the chocolat noisette, the vanilla strawberry – but they’ll even teach you how to make ‘em. The on-site pastry school offers lessons for all ages and levels. What better way to spend a few wintry nights?

On a cold, snowy Edmonton night, nothing says lovin’ like a cup of hot chocolate. It’s no surprise this drink was originally dubbed the “elixir of the gods.” Regardless of the variety you select, or whether you opt for the simplest hot chocolate on the menu, all I can say is ... don’t forget the marshmallows.
You don’t have to travel to Paris to have a true fine-dining experience; you can enjoy an upscale dinner, complete with a five-course meal and fine wine, right here at home. Victoria is a fine-dining destination with an excellent reputation – where talented chefs enjoy crafting delicious gourmet dishes from fresh, locally sourced ingredients.
Craving a sweet treat? You could attempt to wait it out, but why would you, when there are so many bakeries offering buttery, flaky, sweet goodness in Montreal? Treat yourself to something special at one of these excellent Montreal bakeries.
