Best cinnamon roll  “Brioche” I’ve ever had, I went to other places that are in the top list of MTL and this is my new favorite. Super fluffy, buttery and moist, yet it has other great textures from the crumble and the sides are a bit baked or caramalized. The cookies are great too, very similar to levain cookie in NYC, I really like the 4oz cookies. Overall one of the best baked good outings I’ve had, I was planning on saving some for at home but ended up eating everything. Customer service was great, and the man behind the counter kindly answered my many questions about all their products. Will definitely be back, worth the far trip from the other side of town and will need to try their cake next time!

Very expensive ( 18 cad for a slice of cake ). Anyway The white chocolate cookies are amazing, the cake not so much. Brownies ( 10$ for a square) are okay as well as cinnamon rolls but overall just extremely pricey

I can't get enough of this place. Everytime i go it's always a treat. I've tried so many of their different cookies (and famous cinnamon bun of course) and I've never once been disappointed! My favorite so far has to be the brownie/Blondie cookie, it was so delicious, and it was the perfect sweet treat! The staff is also always so kind and smiling, they've never led me a stray with their recommendations. This is definitely one of my go to spots for when I want to indulge in a GOOD sweet treat🍵🍪

Cookies cost $7/each. They were very big and tasty. Unfortunately, cinnamon rolls and carrots cake were sold out in the afternoon on weekday.

The original cinnamon bun is amazing! Yes it's a bit expensive but for the quality and the size it's absolutely worth it. Also the staff is very kind!

I honestly can’t recommend this bakery enough! I come here whenever I’m in the area, and I’ll even go out of my way just to drive here. My daughter and I absolutely love it. The coffees, pastries, and cakes are all amazing—I’ve yet to find anything better in Montreal. It’s definitely an indulgent spot, but every bite is worth it.

We took at least 5 different pastries and every single one was worth it. I will definitely come back on my cheat day!

Bernice is a really solid bakery with some standout items. Their brioche is basically a cinnamon-roll cousin — super moist, fluffy, and indulgent. It does lean on the sweeter side, but if you like rich pastries, it hits the spot. The blueberry coffee cake is an absolute 10/10 — soft, crumbly, perfectly balanced, and honestly one of the best things I’ve had there. My only complaint is that it’s not available nearly as often as I wish it were. The cinnamon coffee cake is also delicious, though it can be a bit dense at times compared to the blueberry. The cookies are very much Levain-style: thick, crispy on the outside, super moist inside. I tried a variety — double chocolate, chocolate chip, cranberry white chocolate, funfetti — but most were very sweet, to the point where I couldn’t finish them. The standout for me was the chocolate chip with pecans; the nuts cut the sweetness perfectly and made it much more balanced. My only real downside: the price. Around $40 for six cookies feels steep, even for high-quality baking. That said, Bernice clearly knows what they’re doing. If you’re into rich, indulgent baked goods and don’t mind a sweeter profile, it’s worth a visit — especially if you can get your hands on that blueberry coffee cake.
