Epic espresso-based drinks and you can make a special request for things not on the menu, like a matcha latte. Yes, they have oat milk! This place is brand new as of this summer, but they've got really amazing summertime infrastructure set up so I would imagine they will continue on through the fall, and re-open in the spring. there's plenty of shade, so you can feel cool sitting around, either on the patio out front overlooking the canal or outback in the sand filled volleyball court-like set up with picnic tables. Really great service, too. Hop on your bike (or a Bixi) and check 'em out! Not far from the Atwater market, so if you aren't a cyclist you can always just stroll on over.

They have instructions written in English and in French on the wall. Lots of different scents you can choose from. They also give you cute aprons to wear. A very simple and fun activity to do with your partner or friends. We absolutely loved our candles. We also liked that we could also decorate and pick out our own sticker for it. We didn't get any drinks but if you are making candles, the drinks and food are 10% off. Definitely recommend booking online!

Besides the food and drink options, the place also has a shopping area for your pets (e.g. treats, accessories, lick mats). There is also a nice seating area outside in the front (will be nice in the warmer weather) and a small fenced area for pet relief. It's a must visit with your fur babies if you're around the area!

While researching for things to do in Montreal, I came upon Ruby Café, a dog friendly café! It is…read moreso rare for indoor eateries to allow dogs so we could not be more excited to bring our dog here. There is patio seating on site, but dogs are definitely welcome to sit and eat inside. My husband and I saw so many happy dogs with their owners inside Ruby Café, either laying on the floor or sitting on their owners' laps, while waiting for their own food. There were maybe 5 things on the menu for dogs, but that is plenty enough. We ordered our dog a dog beer, some meatballs, and a little pupcake. And for ourselves, from the human section of the menu, we ordered an iced coffee, a cappuccino, a grilled cheese sandwich, some toast with eggs and potatoes. Ruby Café is after all a café, so they do offer a wide variety of coffee and tea drinks. Overall, the human food was fine - nothing to write home about. But what made us the happiest was seeing our dog devouring his meal. Coming to Ruby Café was all for our dog, and we were so happy to see him enjoy a full lunch service. Lol. The service here was pretty good. The staff were all very nice. You can tell how much they love dogs. After lunch, we went over to the shop section of the café to check out their offerings. The shop was pretty well stocked with dog treats, dog toys, dog accessories, etc. We didn't end up buying anything unfortunately because we mostly get our dog stuff online.

My saffron affogato was served in a gorgeously detailed tea cup. If I went back, I would just get the saffron gelato (with pistachios, rose, and jaggery(?) chunks) all on its own without the espresso. I've never had anything like it and it was so refreshing on a hot day. Not too sweet either! Logistics: - indoor seating, there might have been a bench outside - limited street parking nearby - attached to a tattoo and gift shop!

Just a few minutes walk from the Laurier station on the Orange line metro, we found this really cute cafe and although it's located on quite a busy street, just down the stairs basically beneath the street level, you'll be in this quaint, quiet retreat from the chaos that is just a few steps above you. The staff were so warm and welcoming and the iced latte was one of the best I had during our entire trip. My wife's matcha latte was also pretty good. Although we stuck with quite basic drinks, they also feature a number of really creative drinks as well if you're in the mood to experiment. This cafe is cozy and not only is it a great place for both espresso and matcha-based drinks, it's a great place to relax and catch up with friends or research your next move if you're visiting like we were. Highly recommended!
