If cheesecake isn't your fav cake then you're Not going to love the pies here. Honestly the blueberry is one of my favs read more

The cakes are hit or miss unfortunately. Sometimes they'll taste really fresh and other times you'll get a stale piece. Don't order through food apps because they'll give you a super tiny piece compared to what you get in store. If you do go in store, try the strawberry shortcake and an espresso. They use lavazza for their coffee so that's a plus. read more

Good goly geeeee that was a cake! For Fathers Day weekend my sister and I decided to pass by Rockaberry and buy a different cake this year instead of the regular. The calories in one piece was probably 900 but hey who's counting?!? We bought the Rockavrownie cake. Personally a bit too dense and sweet for my liking.All I tasted was sugar. The service was prompt and friendly. With tax the cake was about $40. read more

I had never heard of Rockaberry before my book club squad introduced me to it! I'm still not sure, is it a pie? a cheescake? both fused together? Either way, they all look good and I really want to try more flavours. My friends and I got there around 2:40pm on a Sunday (St.Patrick's day) and it was full! The place is tiny and it doesn't help that this place is mainly takeout and not dine in. People were waiting a long time to get their orders so they stayed longer in the restaurant. Getting a table took about 30-40 minutes. We all wanted the table d'hôte pasta option but they only had one portion left. So I let my friend have it and I got the cranberry grilled cheese. The table d'hôte comes with the soup (the soup of the day was leek and potatoes) and drink (I got hot chocolate but usually it's tea or coffee). For dessert we got the rockabrownie to share. The slide is HUGE. At 3 we couldn't finish it. And it was like 75% chocolate creme and 25% brownie. Good but too much. The food was good, ordinary but good, it just took a long time to arrive. We were there in total 3 hours. I think when we come back we'll focus more on trying the different pie and cheesecake flavours instead of their lunch menu. read more

Rockaberry - a variety of cakes in a display case - Cafes Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

Rockaberry location A+, on Monkland street, near Villa Maria metro (5 min walk), surroundings tons of restaurants, cafes, little shops and grocery stores. The restaurant B-, small restaurant; beautiful picture hanging on the walls; some advertisement on the wall or around the cash area destroys the vibe, the display of the pies are too heavy, no space between them. In winter, every time someone opens the door, a cold blow chimes onto you which kills the mood. The service C+, the waitress/the host needs to be happier. Otherwise everything was quick, especially when the bill, since I never asked for it, but it was handed to me. Food B-, I shared the toblerone cheesecake cake pie. The taste of the toblerone was missing. The cheesecake part was delicious. The chocolate cake at the bottom was tasty but very dry. Overall, there is huge space for improvement at this Rockaberry. read more

Very nice place but unfortunately had to take it to go because there wasn't enough room to be able to sit, I'm assuming weekend nights are relatively busy and you won't have somewhere to sit. Another thing to point out is that they charge a bag on your bill without letting you know it's 1$ plus taxes. The selection was also very week on there part, only about 7 pies to pick from. read more

Hugeee pies for around $30 each! You can also buy by the slice. I like bringing these to house/family parties since they make for great desserts. read more

I have never sat down and enjoyed a piece of pie at this Rockaberry location - it is usually just a 'grab & go' last-minute Potluck / Dinner Party dessert. So far I have tried the 'Rockabrownie' and 'Raspberry Fudge Cheescake' which were both absolutely delicious. The Rockabrownie is a tad too creamy and not as many flavours or textures as the Raspberry Fudge so I probably would not order that one again. It was great nonetheless but would have preferred more bite and brownie, less mousse/cream. The Raspberry Fudge however is PERFECT. Every layer is heavenly - has to be my favourite out of the cakes! read more

Really really awful. My husband and I used to go there regularly before COVID and decided to give business to the restaurant. The service was BEYOND awful. Selection was terrible( nothing but 5 pies to offer) and the waitress asked us 5 times if we wanted the food to go when we repeatedly answered we'd eat there. Never going back... read more

Decent service, delicious pies with so many amazing choices that the hardest decision you'll have to make is which flavour combination to try! Yummy. One of my faves is the "Apple cheese crumb". It's almost $8 +taxes for the slice so a little overpriced but it's so decadent and a very large portion. Does not disappoint when you're craving dessert. read more

I've literally had it a million times and every time it tastes amazing! I never ever had a bad experience in this place. It's also so cute and fun to go for coffee & pie in the evening time .. the staff is super nice & polite read more

Best fruit pies and millefeuille pie on the city. Just forget your calorie watch when you order these pies. Taste soooooo good and sinful.

Having lived in Montreal my entire life, I've had the opportunity to dine at numerous restaurants. I can confidently say that Rockaberry's pies are in a league of their own and surpass any other pie from restaurants or bakeries in the greater Montreal area by a wide margin. Comparing their cheesecake pies to any other would be a disservice and a discredit. If you're looking for a delicious dessert or a slice of pie, there's no question that Rockaberry is the only place you need to go. read more

Rockaberry has been around since the 90s... and probably even a little earlier as my vague memories seem to recall odd times back in College. Either way, it's never changed too much from it's key and most important focus, PIE. Home of quite simply awesome cream pies, fruit pies crumble pies and so on (sense a theme here?), all of monumental height and size, it's been one of my favorites through the years for coffee, dessert and just a good place to hang out. From it's original location on Queen Mary, to the expansion on St-Denis, the West Island location (no idea if that's still around) and now the Monkland location, the pies have always been the constant that brings in the crowds at all hours of the day and night. There may be better places for dessert. Definately better places for atmosphere. But for something comforting, this is always a constant. Oh, as for all of those other details, yada yada yada... service was relatively attentive and fast, the atmosphere and the environment was nice though nothing too fancy to write about, and prices were reasonable. Overall, it's a place I will still visit to whenever I'm back in my old hometown. Wish I could figure out a way to get them to open a location out here in Calgary one of these days. read more

Ordered one of the daily specials - soup of the day, choice of salad (garden, oriental garden, or Caesar), choice of coffee or tea, and a slice of pie for $14. The broccoli-cheddar soup of the day was bland - not much else to say about it. Caesar was mediocre - overdressed and devoid of Parmesan, but at least the croutons were crunchy and well seasoned. But really, who comes for the food? The pie on the other hand was pretty good. Now, I'll be the first to admit that I am easily influenced by large servings - and the slices are huge. The apple crumble pie in particular is piled high high high with thinly sliced, cinnamon-spiced apples and a buttery sweet crumble topping. I love that the apples retain their structure, rather than melt down to nothingness. The flavour is a bit heavy on the cinnamon and would benefit from some acidity, but overall it's quite nice. In terms of the crust, the bottom was a bit soggy, but the sides retained a nice crisp crunch. The vanilla ice cream was nondescript. Service was average. Friendly servers, but once they took our orders and brought the food, they pretty much disappeared. Nobody refilled our water glasses for at least an hour and a half... Next time I would probably just order a pie to go... It's more economical and I have no inclination to return for another meal. read more

This is quite a smaller Rockaberry than the others. As always, Rockaberry doesn't disappoint and has a great variety of pies to try! They are a bit pricier than usual, but they are oh so yummy. I would definitely recommend going with a classic crumble or the bananalicious. You get quite a big serving so you can split the pie between two people :) Service is quite quick and I never have many complaints about this place. I wouldn't recommend having the food here as it is very simple and not that great. I would come here to have desserts instead. read more

I was happy to see that this famous establishment was serving some millefeuille but I was quite disappointed when my tarte arrived and saw that it was nothing but icing. Plus my waiter going under the name "jarko" coukdnt shut up about his stupid phantom. SAD. read more

It's small,seats maybe 30 people. You definitely don't come here for the service,they take their sweet time to get your order or even bring you water. I come here for the toblerone cheesecake,it's good. It's big enough to break down into 2 portions. It's not as though they don't have a load of choices but I'm a creature of habit. The pies don't tickle my fancy. It's open late so that's a perk. read more

Seriously sinful mile high pies. Delectable. The chocolate mousse is superb and the cozy atmosphere in this small place is comfortable.

Holy cow these pies are amazing. It was damn near impossible to choose so I went with our server's recommendation and definitely wasn't disappointed. A piece is pricy but so delicious. read more

Had the chocolate lasagna (layer of chocolate cake, cheesecake, more chocolate cake, and chocolate mousse on top). It was absolutely delicious and not too heavy, which was very surprising given how huge the slices are. read more

Rockaberry - Truffle! - Cafes Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

Location: In the heart of Monkland village. Metered parking or look for parking on the side streets. The place: Average decor and average size. The lighting's a little dim but I'm not here for the ambiance. They have limited seating inside and outside on their terrace. The food: I'm only reviewing their dessert, as I haven't had a meal here. I ordered the chocolate and raspberry cheesecake and it was really good. I expected it to be overly sweet but this wasn't the case at all. The cake was fresh, not too cheesy and the texture was perfect - kind of like a firm cloud of fromage. Yum! My date ordered the Oreo cheesecake and loved it. They do seem to have a pretty good rotation because the place was packed and I saw them putting fresh cakes in their display. Service: Our waitress was friendly and offered up some suggestions. She also came to check on us while we were there. The only annoyance was that we were never brought our bill, and the line to pay at the cash is one hot mess. There is no line - just a group of people crowding around and cutting in front of each other. They really need to work out some kind of order because this isn't very efficient. Price: Average. It cost me about $12 for cake and tea. read more

I have emailed the Rockaberry location at 5557 Monkland Ave to give them a chance to reply to me privately but I never got a reply. I am writing because I think it is important to share when service can be improved. I called this location 4 times on Saturday April 30th, but was not able to get through via the phone as it went straight to voicemail. On Sunday, I really needed to order a cake for my colleague, as the rest of my work colleagues were counting on me to bring an Apple Crumb Cheesecake cake for Monday April 1. When I called on Sunday April 31, I was also unable to get through in the early afternoon, with the phone going straight to voicemail. At around 2:50/3pm, I was finally able to get the phone to ring and someone picked up. I told the employee who answered that I wanted to order a cake and she told me that it was no problem but I had to wait, and she put me on hold. I waited for 12 minutes on hold, and I could hear that the phone was on a counter and I believed that the employee had forgotten my call. I hung up and tried to call again, but was sent straight to voicemail again. I left a voicemail, but once again was not called back. At this point it was almost 5pm and I had been calling all day, so I visited the location. When I went into the restaurant, I explained that I had called earlier and the employee recognized me. I told her that I had been trying to call all weekend and asked if they knew that their phone was going straight to voicemail. The employee went to the back room and came back laughing stating that the phone had been off the hook for 2 hours. I explained that I had been calling continuously through the weekend and the employee replied "yeah the phone was off the hook" and laughed again. I explained that I needed the Apple Cheese Crumb Cake and the employee told me that she didn't have the full cake anymore. On top of that, I wouldn't be able to get any writing on the cake. At this point I was very frustrated and just chose a strawberry shortcake, paid the full price and left. This being my first experience at the Monkland Rockaberry, I can only say it was very disappointing and difficult. Besides the fact that the phone was off the hook, the staff did not take the time to apologize or offer me anything for the inconvenience. The fact that I was buying a whole cake and therefore bringing it to a lot of people should have clued in the employee that I would be sharing my poor experience with my colleagues. I had hoped to get a reply before complaining about my experience on social media. I really hope this doesn't happen to anyone else! read more

I have been a faithful Rockaberry enthusiast for many years. It's a great date place, particularly the Monkland location I find. It's cozy, usually quiet, and open late. Everybody talks about the pies - and yes, they are amazing - but the menu is good too! I love their Louisiana sandwich and potato wedges. Their spicy mayo is really tasty. The only thing that's a shame is that the Monkland location is simply too small. I counted 6 tables today. You often have to wait, and the place feels crammed. It's probably a testament to their amazing pies, but it's a small disagreement. That being said - it'd wait in line for a piece of that sweet Millefeuille pie... 100% sugar coma guarantee. read more

Great place, cozy atmosphere & nice terrasse! The famous pies are famous for a reason. So far, we've tried caramel fudge, raspberry fudge, blueberry & apple crumble cheese and tiramisu - the first 3 are definitely recommended! Also great cappuccino & coffee. read more

Rockaberry - mac n cheeeese, actually liked it. (and oreo cake in the back) - Cafes Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

This is the best place to buy pie in mtl hands down. The apple crumble is unbelievable.

It's a few times I go in and the girl at the cash is extremely rude and aggressive for no reason. Unfortunately it was a Saturday always busy there was a few empty 2 seat tables didn't offer to accommodate although we were 3 and willing to sit tight together not realizing the terrace was open she didn't offer us to sit out on the terrace instead gave us attitude let others pass in front of us until we were upset enough to leave. Another time was extremely rude when I went to pay. It's unfortunate as it's a cute place to bring my clients for coffee but to risky when you have someone who greets you at the door or takes your payment with a triggered attitude. read more

They have great pies, but I wouldn't even call most of their "pies" pies. Some of them, like the caramel apple crumb cheesecake, are just zany and delicious concoctions. All of their cheesecake-type "pies" are really good. The straight-up pies are also good, but pale in comparison to the cheesecake type. They also have pretty good meals, but the desserts are definitely the star here. I would suggest you go in a small group as there isn't much seating. If it is full, no need to fret just get a pie to go! read more

I adore the cakes and pies here so much! Delicious, generous portion sizes, and friendly staff. I do wish they had more of the popular flavors so that when you come in later in the day they would still be available. read more

Montreal classic with lots of wonderful pies some of them are pretty heavy to say the least ! My favourite is the the key lime pie ;)

I have some mixed reviews on this This Rocaberry. On the plus side it is in a great location with nice outdoor seating outside for the summer and the staff is always friendly and efficient But I do find that this Rocaberry location is not up to par with some of the others I have been to. They have limited indoor seating which is not horrible since you usually don't end up waiting too long for a seat. However , the main reason I feel like this location isn't my favourite is actually because of the pies themselves :( the last few times I went the pie did not seem as fresh as it should be , the flavour was off and the food was mediocre. I realize this is a chain but i have had much better quality of food and desserts at their saint Leonard branch for example. If you are going to the Monkland location i would steer clear of the pies and opt more for the cheesecakes. that's just my opinion though and I hope i just had some bad luck when I went in. read more
