Small Korean cafe with an eclectic vibe, serving some Korean staples and brunch food. We tried different tasty dishes like japchae, Kimchi fried rice and ramen. The matcha latte was good too! The owner was very sweet and even offered some chocolate chip cookies for the kids before we left! read more

Amazing food, especially their eggs Benedict. Smoothie is also great. Service is great as well.

Food was ok, ambiance was really nice BUT service was horrible. The owner (I believe) was NASTY, impolite. A real shame, as the restaurant's vibe is excellent. A HORRIBLE ASIAN owner!! read more

These are not the same owners as my previous review. Wanted to support local, but came out disappointed by the experience. Ordered a chai latte but forgot to ask for almond milk. I thought they would be able to replace it free of charge since they didn't blink twice when I asked. After all, it is just milk and a tea bag. But no, they charged me twice for the drink. An overpriced 5$ drink, two times, making it 10$ for a cup of tea. This experience made them look extremely cheap and stingy. I ended up paying 30$ with tip when I was expecting to spend only half of that. Will not be coming back!!! read more

Very friendly service with a super laid back atmosphere, like being at your best friend's home. The parfait had natural yogurt, without sugar, and fresh fruit. The coffees were made individually and with care. My latte had so much foam even though it was almond milk! read more

A very sweet location!! Me and my friend came here on a whim in a cloudy Saturday after shopping. Cozy setting with mismatched furniture and a hand written menu gives a cozy vibe. The friendly Korean owner was excited to go over the menu items with us. We got Coing tea with empanadas on the side (the spinach and cheese one is my recommendation!) I'm a little in love with this spot after stopping in, and will definitely be back to try more of what Maté Latte has to offer) read more

A very charming little cafe on Sherbrooke Street in NDG. Tons of breakfast and lunch options (I'm partial to the breakfast club sandwich at any time of the day), smoothies, so many kinds of tea and genuine, sweet service. read more

Found this great little cafe while looking for a different place in NDG - it was a fantastic little find. I had waffles with dulce de leche (the real stuff, not the sickly-sweet kind you sometimes get) while the gf had the banana foster waffles - both were outstanding. There was a bunch of other food on display that looking great, including legit-looking Argentinean empenadas (I'm going to go back just to try them). We had lattes, and the coffee was good (but not amazing). They were still better than most breakfast places in Montreal, so it's not actually a negative. The staff were really friendly. They offered to combine different things from the menu if we wanted, and gave suggestions when we asked, which was nice. They had a terrace-like setup of table and chairs out the front, taking great advantage of NDG's massive sidewalks - something I'll definitely be giving it a go on the warmer weekends. read more

My husband and I are visiting family here and I saw this place on Yelp and decided to try them out. My husband ordered their breakfast plate and I ordered their hot stone bowl bibimbap with tofu and it was soooooooo delicious. Amazing flavor and it was a lot of food for the price. Extremely friendly service as well. read more

Everything I'd eaten here was yummy! I love that they have such a long and varied menu and asked the waitress about it, and she said when her mom took over the restaurant she wanted to add Korean food to what was already there. Rare to find a place you can get empanadas and ramen in the same place. The inside atmosphere is very cozy and relaxed, a place you could sit and chat for a good while after finishing your meal. read more

Charming little cafe in NDG. Breakfast menu includes a a selection of waffles and crepes, baked goods, and "typical" breakfast items (e.g., bacon, eggs, toast, potatoes). We went around 10:30 on a weekday and they were also starting to put lunch items into the display case, including some amazing looking salads, wraps, and paninis. I was looking for something breakfast-y and sweet, so I ordered the Bananas Foster waffle and a latte. The waffle was perfectly cooked with a crisp exterior and a soft and chewy interior. It was topped with a mess of bananas, warm buttery brown sugar sauce, and vanilla ice cream that, although nothing special on its own, melted into the butter-brown sugar sauce to form a next level creation. Yum. My latte had a bit too much foam for my liking, but was otherwise very good. Service was friendly and casual. Prices were very reasonable. The decor was eclectic and inviting. I would definitely come back... Although I think I'd be torn between getting the bananas Foster again or to trying some of the other things on the menu =) read more

1 star for nice people. 1 star for cozy quiet place place. Thoroughly dissatisfied with this cafe. Service was slow and disorganized. Though they were nice they did bring us the wrong orders and we had to bring them back. The place was hardly full enough to justify that. Service was so slow that no less than 3 people left before being served what they ordered in the one hour we were waiting. The Latté I ordered tasted as if they reused the same coffee they used from a previous cup. I paid 5$ for warm milk essentially. The empanadas were not heated long enough for the center to to be cold. Same goes for their wraps, never fully heated. Avoid the chicken wrap at all costs. It is so spicy that all the other flavours are drowned out. Would not recommend this place to anyone. read more

I have only been here to eat once, but one time I was having a crazy day, needed to use the washroom and was so hungry, but had loads of laundry in the machines across the street. The lady at the counter was super sweet to me, and I promised to return. The food is surprisingly good for a cafe. I had their eggplant parmesan sandwhich, a veg soup and a glass of water. The sandwich was out of this world, so good, it squirted a big glob of it onto my lap. haha. The soup was lacking salt, but otherwise it was ok. Very pleasant service, very pleasant surroundings. I felt very comfortable here. read more

This is an amazing find. Really low on the radar screen but boy can they deliver. If your looking for a place that's low key with a down home living-room fell to it, then this is one of the best spots to pass the time in ndg. Music, ambience, quality of food, portions, great service, all this makes it just a wonderful experience. I arrived at 11 for a late breakfast, they don't make omelettes or reg eggs, but they incorporate eggs in most of their dishes. I ordered an old fashion waffle and it was terrific with lots of butter on the side, and real maple syrup along with excellent Union brand coffee. I will be back and I will tell all my friends about this place. If you need a break from Starbucks, then try this out. read more

I walked in after doing the night shift, it was 7am on a Thursday morning. An older guy was sitting in the back and one woman was working behind the counter. She greeted me with a smile as low music played through the speakers. I explained I was tired and hungry and I had never been there before. She gave me multiple suggestions till I settled on a waffle with fresh fruit, whipped cream and maple syrup. I ate quietly by myself while she served me. It was so good. The fruit was fresh and delicious, the waffle was made on the spot, the whipped cream was light and the syrup was local and delicious. Matté Latté was so good that I brought my girlfriend back the next afternoon. The place was packed both inside and out and we were served promptly. Prices are high but fair for the portions and quality you get. read more

Stayed in Montreal in NDG area and went here for breakfast two days in a row. Had eggs and bacon the first day and they kindly refilled my coffee without having to ask. Second day I was hungover and one of the girls suggested a Mate Latte (a green tea concoction with honey) which was nice. Had the waffles on my second round and it was wonderful. Friends enjoyed their crepes. Good atmosphere, friendly staff and the owner Andrea has great taste in music. Really nice and family friendly place to chill. read more

Very good latte. Pretty decent light lunch. Friendly staff n ambiance. Wifi Interesting street traffic. Nice terrace in summer. read more

Stopped in for a smoothie prepared with fresh fruits. Staff is friendly and they have a DVD exchange

The alfajores are to die for but this café offers a great variety of treasures: Empanadas, torta tricolor, quiche, amazing and creative sandwiches, homemade cookies, cupcakes, etc. All healthy choices that looked fresh out of the kitchen. Everything looked good and it was hard to choose! Thankfully, I was served by Alvin, whom sense of humor is amazing and he was very helpful with his suggestions. The place seems to be family/friends run by people from the neighborhood. Definitely gives it a "home" feeling. Will definitely go back! read more

I finally got around to trying mate latte ! As a coffee lover I'm always on the lookout for cute little coffee shops. I really liked this place for its local friendly neighbourhood feel , people walking by saying hello to eachother and to the staff , friendly servers that make you feel welcome and cute homey interior as well as outdoor seating. I enjoyed the coffee (iced latte) and the ambience. A lot of people were there for breakfast or food as well (they serve your usual simple breakfast foods, empanadas , salads sandwiches etc ...) in addition to coffee and tea. I definitely would like to go back for more coffee and to try the food ! great place for a date or to spend some time with a friend or just to hangout alone with a book/laptop and a coffee. Places like this are one of the reasons I like NDG so much read more

We stopped in for a quick lunch. Service was fantastic, lunch was delicious. Even the carrot cake was phenomenal (and this is coming from a person who doesn't care for the stuff, but I couldn't help but sample my companion's!). Will definitely be back for brunch. read more

It's a charming beautiful place and the food is beautiful. Happy I found it as a spot for breakfast any day of the week.

I love these guys! The place feels homey, the service is super friendly and the food is all home made and yummy. The only problem with coming here is that I never want to leave! read more

I've been there countless of times! The coffee is great, the staff is friendly, and most of all, the food is delicious!

We ordered the basic breakfast dish and the dolce de lece waffle. Basic breakfast was really good, the potatoes cooked to perfection. The dolce de lece and cream on my waffle was really good. For me, I prefer a little bit darker crunchier waffle. Still the cream and dolce de lece were delicious. What I think really makes this place nice is that you don't feel rushed out. It feels really nice to sip a giant latte and linger over the sun pouring in the front window. Great vibe and a really charming wait staff. read more

I went there twice to get a decaf coffee but they were out so I could not sample their coffee. My brother said their chai tea latte was the best he's had in Montreal (he tried about 15 different places). The place is good for working, the wifi is good and reliable. read more

Mate Latte is a great little cafe where you immediately feel at home. The food is all homemade and you can tell, everything is freshly made and you can even take some dinners home for later. The lasagna was incredible! The staff is very friendly and helpful. I love the front terrasse and they even offered my dog a dog bowl full of water. I now go every weekend because it is officially the best breakfast in NDG. nothing against Cosmos but this is just a way healthier aternative. read more

Super charming cafe, very warm and welcoming place, staff is so nice and make an effort to get to know their regular customers, which is not something you see often in Montreal. Reasonably priced and pretty good food with a lot of fun throwback music. I like the beef empanadas (pretty authentic) and the alfajores (sugar cookie with dulce de leche- very generous with the dulce de leche). If you live near ndg I highly recommend this place :) read more

A bit haphazard, with slow, inattentive service, but a friendly place that has good food. Our "blueberry pancakes" came with no blueberries in the pancakes -- berries came in a little bowl. Cook said she doesn't like to put berries in batter because they gum up the skillet. Pancakes were still tasty, but we'd have preferred to know what we'd get before it arrived. Our scrambled eggs and bacon were nicely cooked, with very good home fries. The only coffee is dark-roast. If you prefer a lighter roast, you won't find it here. read more

The staff ain't always friendly. It's happened a couple times where they seemed fed up or overwhelmed. However, the drinks and food are tasty and well priced with a few minor exceptions. It's my go to place when I can't decide what to eat or if we're on the go and need to eat in the car. The chai latté is also pretty damn good :) read more

New ownership rules. They have both a generous North American breakfast with coffee/teas and a kickass Korean menu. Service was super fast and pleasant and the atmosphere was comfortable. Just a perfect spot. read more

Yummmmmy !! Just had a wonderful crepe ... Banana Foster and a very good Tortilla soup and sandwich ! Cosy atmosphere , very nice team !! Really appreciate the attention to detail !

Had the pleasure of visiting this cafe/bistro last weekend while visiting Montreal. Excellent coffee, with free refills, tasty muffins coupled with exceptional service. The food offerings are delicious, judging by the reaction of customers. Very unpretentious surroundings with pleasant and friendly staff. It is not often that you will find a cafe/bistro where the staff will actually bring your coffee to your table, but at the Mate Latte they do and with warm smiles. Staff are always in motion taking away used utensils and making sure that customers are satisfied. Congrats to the Manager, Andrea on having a service oriented team, good food and excellent coffee.

Hmmm... we had breakfast here this morning, and yes it was absolutely tasty and the staff were super friendly... but I can't give it 5 stars: It doesn't feel like a schmancy-fancy place, but the prices seem a little steep for what you get... my husband had the "waffles" and I had the "crepes", but what they really should have said is "waffle" and "crepe". Delicious, but not a speck of anything else on the plate -- no little orange slice, no potatoes, just a plain ole waffle and a crepe. I also find it hard to order on the spot (ie at the counter, before you sit down)... I'd much rather sit and have a coffee and contemplate the options... but that's my own mistake for not reading the reviews here first!! I do give them points for taste though -- the waffle was light and fluffy, the crepe was delicious -- and the tzatziki, MMMMM. We ordered a side of potatoes for $2 extra and they came with the most delicious tzatziki dip ever. I was dipping my crepe in the tzatziki at the end just to get the most of it :) With one cup of coffee and one water our bill was $27 -- not saying that's outrageous, just that for almost $30 I'd like my breakfast to be a little more rounded out. Not sure we'd go back. read more

Just moved to the Deeg, looking for a good coffee, found Maté latte, and glad I did, I asked for a macchiato and the charming lady suggested I try a cortada, (cortana?) can't remember, best coffee I've had in a while, coupled with a sublime meat empanada, (like a South American meat pasty) perfect combo of salt and sweet. Thanks for making my day Maté latte! Looking forward to trying other delicious looking items on the menu! read more

They have amazing breakfast sandwiches! I actually like the coffee a lot, and I consider myself fussy with coffee. My sister had the waffles and they were just so yummy, I will go back just to order them.The staff is super friendly. Sometimes in the morning I sit there with my dog, enjoy a nice coffee and food. I love it. The foods is so fresh and home made tasting. read more

This place was a great alternative to the greasy Cosmo's staple. Much better breakfast that came with some white sauce that I can't quite identify, but put this from a 4 star to a 5 star. Service was great! Friendly, looks like it's family run, which is always entertaining. A great change from the same old that most cafes seem to offer these days, lots of unique offerings. I definitely plan on discovering more of them. read more

Really chill place, friendly vibe, comfortable and accommodating. Had a super breakfast - great quality bacon, thick home-made whole wheat bread and extremely tasty coffee - among other things. Looking forward to making my way through their menu and just enjoying the atmosphere. read more
