Au Pain Dor\u00E9 is a Montreal bakery that has been in business for over 50 years, pretty sure it's not this location though. They have successfully spread across Montreal with a focus on traditional French tastes using artisanal baking techniques and quality ingredients.\n\nThis particular location is actually two floors. The ground floor is the busy section with customers coming and going while the baked goods fly off the shelves. Counters line the walls selling breads, pastries, and other baked goods. The second floor is jam packed with tables and chairs and a small deli counter.\n\nNormally I don't head downtown for a loaf of bread, but their selection of loaves and baguettes get my mouth watering every time. Usually I stop by for the pastries. I just tried their superb cherry danish. A light flaky pastry covered in a perfect glaze and topped with cherry filling. I'll be back for another one soon. They build some pretty nice sandwiches too. Built on their fresh baked bread and packed full with full fresh ingredients they absolutely destroy Subway.\n\nStuff is a little more expensive than Tim Horton's but is pretty similar to what you would pay at Starbucks. The staff have always been helpful even when we aren't speaking the same language. It's a perfect spot to grab a treat if you happen to be downtown."^^ . "0"^^ .
