Frequently asked questions

Maison Montaron is open Tuesday to Saturday, from 10am to 1.30pm and from 3pm to 6.30pm. We are closed on Sundays and Mondays.

At 1 avenue des Frères Olivier, 06600 Antibes. It's our workshop, our shop and our tea room, all in one place.

Yes, with pleasure: our tea room awaits you for a choux and a coffee, in peace and quiet. Everything is also available to take away.

We may be a little biased. But if you drop by avenue des Frères Olivier, we'll let you make up your own mind, choux in hand.

Because everything is homemade, every day, with beautiful ingredients. And because the team is lovely: you come for a choux, you come back for the smile (and for a second choux).

Since January 2023. Pastry chef Anthony Montaron opened his workshop in Antibes with one obsession: the craquelin choux, made every day, no shortcuts.

It's a choux pastry topped, before baking, with a thin layer of craquelin (butter, sugar, flour) that turns crisp in the oven. The result: a perfectly round choux, crunchy on top and generously filled inside.

Our craquelin choux come in three signature flavours: lemon verbena, Paris-Brest and dark chocolate. They're joined by three seasonal flavours that change regularly. They are €3.50 each.

Technically, yes. We accept no responsibility for craquelin on your jumper.

The record is held by the chef's father, with 6 choux to his name.

Paris-Brest, every single day.

Yes. Choux, flan, tartlets, loaf cakes, cookies and chocolates are made every day in our workshop, right behind the shop.

The Flan Montaron with Madagascar vanilla (€4.50 a slice, €22 whole), a seasonal tartlet, loaf cakes, cookies and chouquettes, the profiterole, pastry chef's ice cream and an old-fashioned hot chocolate.

In Antibes, and on the whole Côte d'Azur. The prize was awarded by the toughest jury there is: our regulars. Madagascar vanilla, €4.50 a slice or €22 whole.

Yes: Grand Cru bars, mendiants and our hazelnut praline spread, with dark or milk chocolate, in 230 g jars. A gift that always goes down well… especially with the giver, if they taste it first.

Both. And sometimes breakfast, but we won't tell anyone.

Yes, our gluten-free loaf cake. Please note: our workshop also uses wheat flour, milk, eggs and nuts, so traces are possible. If you have an allergy, talk to the team before ordering.

Allergens for each product are displayed in the shop. Don't hesitate to ask us: we'll be happy to help.
