I've ordered sandwiches, tried their pizzas, devoured their biscottis, gorged myself with their dessert pastries, etc. But the cheese Danish I got this morning was beyond amazing. The light pastry was filled with a cheese mixture that probably had some ricotta in it. Superb! The store has a variety of pastas, coffees, and other imported Italian goodies. Best of all, the counter folks are courteous, helpful. and friendly. Easy to get to from other parts of the city. The 104 and 90 bus both stop at Upper Lachine and Melrose. You'll see the yellow sign with red lettering.

I've tried flat tomato pizza all over the city for 50 years, and bar none, NDG Bakery has the best!…read more I am so happy that I discovered them in the 80s. If you are in the mood for a sandwich at lunch or anytime, they make every sandwich fresh to order, even slicing the meats and cheeses at assembly time, with whatever condiments you wish, on their "baked in store" soft or crunchy buns or breads. Their sweets counter would rival any of the Italian bakeries in the city. Mima and her staff are friendly and always accommodating. Don't get "shut-out", order your flat red pizza in advance for weekend pickup they sell out early, that also goes for their breads and other baked products.

Not sour or bitter at all while bright and lemony without being too sweet. The apricot tart was fresh and buttery. The winner was the almond, chocolate, raspberry croissant which he noted was his favorite.

Would come again the next time I'm back in the area!

The front area is a bakery with beautiful dessert displays. I wish I had a room for dessert. We came for the Quiche Lorraine, and the portion was huge -- probably enough for 3 people, I would say. It had a lot of meat, with some kind of special ham/bacon, and the flavor was delicious. If you like meat, this is the dish for you. I definitely recommend it! Personally, I would have liked a little more egg custard in the quiche. The Eggs Benedict was delicious as well. The drinks were great and the service was top-notch. Highly recommend!.

We got the pear dessert, lemon meringue, and Ferrero chocolate cake, and together the three desserts came to around $45. Honestly, I didn't want to like them as much as I did because of the price, but they were all so good that we immediately wanted more. The pear dessert was light and delicate, while the outer white chocolate layer added a really nice crunch. I was super happy to see them because they were viral on TikTok lol. The Ferrero chocolate cake was super creamy and rich, and even the base had that delicious Ferrero flavor throughout. The lemon meringue was also light and refreshing, while the bottom crust still had a nice firmness to it in a good way. Every dessert was super flavorful and tasted amazing. The staff greeted us right away when we came in for takeout, and everyone was very friendly. They also helped pack our desserts, although I personally would have preferred if each dessert was packaged separately. The shop itself is really cute too. They have an adorable heart and rose sign outside, and all the desserts are displayed at the front. They also sell croissants and other little pastries/snacks as well.

Gotta love this place! Hands down the best bakery in the neighborhood!…read moreThe bread smells so good that even smelling it is surprisingly satisfying. The coffee is good (they have non dairy milk). The pastry variety is limited and it changes throughout the year; but everything is always fresh. I've bought the most delicious chocolate+coffee cake from him once. The owner is one of the kindest bakers I've met in Montreal and what i love about his baking style is how he keeps it simple and well balanced with a small touch of the east here and there :) never too sweet, never too shiny or bright, never too crunchy and sometimes, if you taste it carefully, with a little touch of rosewater :)

I came with high expectations since I was told the almond croissants were really good…read more Unfortunately, they were not as great as the ones I have had elsewhere. The filling didn't have the same texture and taste as the typical French pastry shops and the croissant shell was so so. I have had their almond cake and it was a bigger success than their almond croissants. The plus side is it's the one of the few places on Queen-Mary that sells pastries so it can come in handy in case of an emergency if you live in the area.

Visit Shortbread By Gryphon for the best shortbread. Period. Double Period…read more. Peggy has been baking shortbread and crafting a multitude of other delicacies in her Monkland storefront since the early 2000's. Pass by and she'll always greet you with a smile (and usually a sample of her latest confectionery creation!). Let me give you a rundown of some of my favourite options from Gryphon: Shortbread - this one's in the title, delicious, crumbly, with just the right balance of sweet and salty/buttery flavour. Scones - available as fresh individual scones, or in a traditional farl of 8 wedges, frozen so you can bake them at home. Irish flapjacks - imagine a granola bar held together by butter and brown sugar, OK go to Gryphon and you won't have to imagine. Millionaire bars - small shortbread rectangles with a layer of English Toffee on top, covered in Belgian Chocolate sprinkled with edible gold dust. Millionaire sandwiches - small shortbread cookies (my favourites are the smaller ones :D ) with a layer of English Toffee sandwiched between them, and the whole thing covered in Belgian Chocolate sprinkled with edible gold dust! If you appreciate the true Irish and Scottish heritage of shortbread and scones, this is the place to go. I dare you to stop at just one!
