This small little coffee shop was located right around the corner from our hotel. It's a small and…read morecozy shop with just a few tables inside. It can get busy and the lines form out the door, but the pastries and coffee are worth it. We ordered the chocolate and pistachio filled croissants and donuts. I would rate both chocolate and pistachio filled croissants a 9/10 and the donut versions of each a 7/10. I felt the croissants tasted better and had more filling. We ordered the Remix which is authentic freddo expresso, cafe crema soft serve and topped off with hot frothed milk and chocolate. This was a 10/10 and was every bit of amazing as it looks in the picture. Service was fast and friendly. One note, they don't have flavored coffees, so I couldn't order a caramel latte, for example. Overall, great coffee shop that we enjoyed every day during our stay.

The place is small but was lucky to have found a couple of empty tables so we were able to eat the croissants, breakfast sandwiches and our coffee inside. We were too late for the pistachio filled croissant tho. The servers are pleasant and even gave us a couple of free cookies because we ordered a lot.

The crepe tasted bad with artificial sweetening and strange dough with bland taste. The cocktail (strawberry mojito) also had an artificial flavoring to the juice that did not taste like strawberry - not worth $16. The white wine (Chardonnay)was possibly worse tasting than cooking wine, but this was at least affordable compared to everything else. $80+ for 3 people and all we ordered were 3 drinks and 1 crepe, made with low quality ingredients. Maybe their dinner and lunch meals are better, they had an extensive menu, but we did not have a good experience.

Every location I went to was full but the line goes by quickly. This specific location is in old Montreal so if you're doing sightseeing it's a great spot to chill. The cafe crema is insane. The texture and flavor of this is something I've never had before. The coffee flavor is strong but not offensively strong. Even if you're not a fan of coffee I'd still suggest you try it. The affogato was lovely with the espresso and gelato mixing it creates that lovely icy texture on the outside. It is more pricey so I'd say the safe crema is the way to go.

Panic mode. Thankfully, this place saved the day with its warm and inviting ambiance. We grabbed coffees and croissants, and the owner was quick and efficient, getting us sorted in no time. Even at that ungodly hour, there were already two locals and a dog chatting with the patron--always a good sign of a neighborhood favorite. Can't complain at all. I'm in Vieux Montreal for a few more days and will definitely be back.

I definitely recommend this as an option if you have to go gluten-free (or even if you don't!!)

What a little oasis in the city, loved my experience here!…read more I stumbled across this cafe while visiting and I could tell it looked like a popular local spot. There was a small line but the wait was short. I ordered a cappuccino and a BLT bagel sandwich. Both were really great. The cappuccino was one of the best ones I've had on my trip. The beans they picked were good, and the milk was steamed perfectly. The BLT bagel sandwich really caught me by surprise. I honestly wasn't expecting too much. They did such a good job balancing all the flavors and it didn't feel like a heavy sandwich like some BLT sandwiches can be. The general feel of the cafe is very cozy and comfortable. The window in the front let in amazing light, making the cafe such an inspirational spot (would be amazing to spend a day in there working). There were also plants everywhere and the greenery is such a nice touch. They even had fresh flowers on every table (so rare to find these days). The staff were super friendly. You ordered at the counter, get your number for the table, and the staff members would bring you your food. I was there in the morning and everyone had a smile on their face. The space seemed to uplift everyone's mood in there. I had such a great first time impression of this place and I will definitely be back the next time I'm in the area.

Thankfully after walking around and checking out the option I settled on this place, it had a decent crowd so I figured it was promising. They were very quick with their services having multiple people on coffee and pretty much one handling food and one floating between the register and everything else. Pretty quick service. Coffee was good, not bitter. The Lox Bagel was pretty good, although it got smashed a bit when they cut it. Pretty fresh, though the tomato wasn't ripe. Definitely a good spot to start your day.

I got a smoked salmon and cream cheese bagel which was tasty and my wife went with the salad Nicoise which she said was great. Overall, gotta give this place 5 stars.
