A mainstay in Montreal’s pastry scene for over four decades, Pâtisserie do Rosário has quietly become the city’s top artisanal producer of pastéis de nata. What began on the Plateau now thrives on Plaza St-Hubert, where the Machado family—Antonio, Agostinho, and Danny—run a tight, sugar-dusted ship. While the shop offers a variety of handmade Portuguese baked goods, it’s the iconic egg tarts that define it. Nearly 20,000 leave the ovens weekly, landing in cafés, grocers, and caterers across Montreal. Still, it’s worth coming straight to the source to explore the rotating lineup of nata flavours, baked fresh daily in full view.
