The bred is amazing and they have fresh squeezed lemonade that I love. Very friendly people and very good bred.
Very nice little shop with quality baked-goods and interesting mix of flavors.
My top 3:
• Nuts and blue cheese bread
• Figs and cheddar bread
• Apple and maple syrup brioche
If you're in the area you should definitely try it.
Friendly greeting. Great location. Funky decor. Superb bread/ petit pain and brioches! I liked the great selection. I wish it were open everyday.
For the most part I gave up bread and carbs more than a decade ago. But I'm still a sucker for a nice crusty baguette and a good almond croissant. They do a nice job with the former, and an outstanding job with the latter, at this hole-in-the-wall off St. Laurent in Montreal. Upon recommendations from friends, we stopped by... plus
I came in the afternoon and they were out of lots of things which is usually a sign to come earlier, but they had some good things left and a line to the door. The olive bread and the chocolate almond croissant-like dessert were fantastic, the baguette-like loaf was fresh but would be better without the cornmeal on the outside, while the apricot loaf was good quality but very chewy, and the... plus
Old school style bread in a funky undustrial setting.
Prices are reasonable.
Decor is great.
Selection of bread: amazing! Not too many but the ones offered and just right!
My favorite: olive bread & white chocolate vanilla champignon shaped bread !!!
I LOVE this place!! I love those little white chocolate vanilla brioches... they are very cheap and very delicious! I also ate most of a big olive loaf from here all by myself ... And I always make sure I come back when I am in the neighborhood!
When I found myself drooling outside a closed Guillaume after a Sardine visit with the wise Diane D, remembering the savor and aroma of the olive bread she'd shared with me from here on earlier occasions I knew I was a goner. All my best intentions of not eating bread and cheese all day every day will fly out the window now every time I walk past (or anywhere near) Guillaume. I need to make my... plus
Some great olive bread and other products. am giving 3 stars instead of 4 since they're closed on mondays and prices are a little high, 5 dollars for a loaf of bread is expensive! That being said, for artisanal bread they're tough to beat. They also make delicious sandwiches. If you're in the area stop by next door at cafe Sardine for some great donuts and coffee. Oh and be aware, Guillaume... plus
I've tried various breads at Guillaume and desserty things like chausson aux pommes, caramel nut swirls, croissants and all were good, but the fougasse aux olives is why I'm writing this review. If you like savory breads, this will be like crack to you. The olives have intense, rich flavor, there are tons of them and you will wonder why you ever listened to me as now you can't stop eating this... plus
The bread quality is great! The staff is lovely too. The only issue is their working hours: completely impractical for those working till late afternoon.
Whenever I go visit anyone, particularly in the US, I bring them this bread as an offering of thanks for their hospitality. Makes the famous San Francisco Sourdough look like an 8-day old dinner roll that has been left outside.
Rating Scale:
1 Star: Avoid the town in which this place is located just to be safe.
2 Star: Risky at best.
3 Star: I'll try it again or consume here in a pinch.

This very small bakery has unique breads and brioches that are quite tasty. The white chocolate brioche is a must as is the caramel apple brioche/danish. Try the cheddar and figue fougasse. A quick coffee to go and you're off.
PROS:
1. The variety of bread is sure to satisfy anyone's cravings. Everything we got was delicious but in particular the cheddar and garlic bun was the best in my books.
2. I love the little nook with the friendly staff who helped us choose which ones were best.
CONS:
1. There are no nutritional values opposed to Premiere Moisson. This is a really subjective con considering I study nutrition...

I come here almost every Sunday and buy their croissants, which are soft, buttery with a seductive hint of sweetness. My boyfriend loves their chocolate orange bread. The staff is friendly, quick and the price is reasonable. There are lots of French bakeries in town, but this one is surely one of the best.
The BEST bread in the city, & I've tried many artisanal bakeries in Montréal. It is true however; that the staff tends to put the sweet & the savoury together in the same bag, thereby contaminating the sweet/savoury tastes. You have to remind the staff to PLEASE place the items into SEPARATE bags. The BEST olive, the best garlic fougasses I've EVER tasted so far. Their baguettes are ab fab as... plus
I loooove this place, and I'm glad to see that it's finally getting the yelp love it deserves!
Especially in a city riddled with chain bakeries, Boulangerie Guillaume is a welcome respite. Admittedly, however, I have only had their savory items. I can say that undoubtedly Guillaume serves the best bread I have had here in MTL.
The staff is super friendly in my experience. Aaaand, the place is...

After hearing about Guillaume from other local merchants who were raving about it, I decided to see what all the fuss was about last year.
Not knowing what to order/what their specialties were, I asked the server to give me the best of both worlds- one savoury treat and one sweet. I got the baguettine with cheddar fort & figues, as well as the white chocolate brioche... the baguettine looked...

Their caramel apple cinnamon bun is worth the walk over every time. We've recommended it to people and they've never come away disappointed.
Bread is good - comparable to other bakeries in the area and they have a nice variety of unique specialties to choose from. Chocolatines are wonderfully chocolatey and seriously...if you haven't tried that cinnamon bun yet you don't know what you are...

Imagine coming home after a visit to the bakery, and eagerly opening your bag of treats to find your freshly baked olive bread squished next to the world's sweetest almond croissant. You peel the two apart but now there is sugary dust all over your bread. Every time I've visited Guillaume's, staff has mushed my savory and sweet items in the same bag without any wax paper dividers or napkins to... plus
