Envie d’un petit dessert ou d’un pain sur le pouce? Plougastel est là. Situé dans un coin très achanlandé, c’est un petit coin parfait pour s’arrêter un moment et reprendre sa routine. Un petit plus pour le décor qui nous rappelle celui d’un mini village.

Better then average coffee;no soy/almond milk or other types of milk, so a bit of a downfall for me, only regular milk, BUT coffee quality is great. Latte was creamy, and delicious. I also had a Brie and tomato sandwich on a baguette, the touch of the tomato acid made the Brie taste better. Free Wifi, nice little tables by a large window so you can sit looking outside boulevard Saint-Laurent. Friendly staff.

La baguette régulière de plougastel est un des meilleurs pains que j’ai mangé que ce soit en France ou à Montréal! La mie de cette baguette est exceptionnelle et ceux qui préfèrent une croûte plus croustillante peuvent se rabattre sur la baguette longue. Idem pour les chocolatines et croissants qui ont un goût et une texture somptueux! De plus le petit choix de fromages et autres accompagnements sauront parfaitement se marier avec ces bon pain pour un petit encas de midi accompagné d’une salade fraîche. Bref vous l’aurez compris, ma boulangerie de quartier préférée et dans mon cas, quasi quotidienne.

I used to come here nearly every day to work(finishing a dissertation). Pastries are very good, decent food, coffee is better than acceptable, and everything at excellent prices. There’s free wi-fi. The staff is warm. Decent music at a reasonable volume. Local art on the walls. Nice place. BUT… the owner prefers to leave the door open – even when it’s wet and cold(as in 2 degrees) outside. The bathroom is dirty, and the main floor doesn’t seem to get swept very often. Also, the owner has become sarcastic and unpleasant of late. I can no longer recommend this place, except as an place to grab inexpensive pastries for carry-out. So, good for carry-out, but you’re taking your chances if you choose to eat in.

This is a frequent destination for me when I’m biking up St. Laurent and searching for a quick delicious, cheap eat. As Risa D. mentions in her review, the café itself isn’t very cozy and inviting but the pastries are delicious and the staff are friendly. The item I keep returning for every few weeks is the«Feuilleté Epinard»…a triangular-shaped buttery flakey pastry filled with a savoury mix of spinach, olives, sundried tomatoes, and cheese. At roughly $ 4.00 it is a nice light meal. They also offer lunch combos of soup or salad, pressed sandwich, dessert and drink for roughly $ 9.00 if that is more your style. Their to-go baked goods selection is always fresh and made with love. I have tried their flax bread(very good) and a few of their pastries that rivaled Première Moisson(of which I am a fan!). Today I sampled the fresh mixed berry tart which was not altogether unsatisfying but not a highlight. A dense, crispy butter cookie crust took the place of the more traditional crumbly, melt-in-your-mouth crust. The berries atop saved the dessert which, according to the owner, came fresh from Jean-Talon market in the morning.

Free wifi, tasty coffee and lovely light croissants made for a life-saving stop for little old me today at Plougastel. I will come back on the weekend to try the lemon rye bread and the Plougastel itself and to smile again at the friendly team of people who populate the place and sling hot baguette. There is some pretty design inside(stone archway indoors, of course) but somehow this café still feels a little cold and uninviting — hard chairs, cement floor, white walls… So I wouldn’t come here to cozy up, but for some emergency internet and delicious snacks I’ll keep keeping Plougastel in mind.
