    Awesome cheese selection, and a great place to go check out some interesting mustard or olive oil. As far as imported European goods go, it's hard to find anywhere better, or at least to find somewhere where it is all in one place.

    I only wish it was open later in the evenings during the week.

    This place smells like God's feet.  And I broke a vegetarian once, just by walking her through the door.  But their condiment, spice, and packaged goods selection is why they're my first stop whenever I'm looking for some esoteric old school European ingredient or food product that I've just read about in a book.  You want capers cured in salt made from the eyelid sweat of skinny little French ballerinas?  Over there, right next to the kippered squid teats from the Bernese oberland.

    Bring a packsack.

    This is a fantastic store! I'll give it five stars on the sausages and the cheese alone. Not to mention the hundreds of other things that you just can't find in your typical supermarket.

    Truly a foodie's paradise! The first time I went in this store, I felt like my prayers were finally answered. Amazing selection of cheeses, charcuteries, pates, chocolates and my beloved saucisson sec! I spent almost an hour perusing through the stacked shelves, full of French/European products: You need to be careful as the bill can climb pretty high quite fast.

    I love this place.  Great cheese selections- A lot ! and Great Value, there are lots of special items - must be little old but perfectly edible and cheap.. 3 to 4 dollars, I've never seen that many selection in any store in CA.  
    Great Charcuterie selections - all kinds of sausages, ham, smoked meat, pâtés(rabbit, wild boar, duck..... yummy!)
    Great olive oil, vinegar, mustard, cookies, chocolates.. And COFFEE!
    They roast all the coffee in the store - hummm actually I need to find out if  but I saw someone roasting coffee in the store.....

    This is my first review after I arrived in Montreal.  I found Yelp is not popular as in the Bay area so I decided to put some reviews as soon as possible.  
    I fell in love with this place at the first time.  so that tells a lot :) Yeah! Montreal!

    Stopped in here again recently to buy some delicious Quebec cheese. They have a great selection of cheeses from Quebec including some interesting unpastuerized chevres. They also have an excellent selection of jams and chocolates. Highly recommended.

    This the only place in Montreal where I can buy Marmite...wonderful assortment of European foodstuff...the people at the check-out could be  little bit more polite though, after all I am paying for the items, it is not a food bank.
