The restaurant itself is broken into 3 areas (a walk up counter, a casual area, and the more formal dining room). It was warm when we went and we were burning up by the time we left, but the drinks were quite good and so was our server. The hubby and I shared a couple of pastries with the savory scone and kouign amann being our favorites. Their dishes look very good, on the smaller side, and meant to be shared.

Very cute café, as well. Looks like a great place to work. Highly recommend the tourn'oeuf (breakfast sandwich). Excellent combo of flavors. This was the best breakfast sandwich I've ever had. The breakfast platter was very good as well, a sampler of flavorful things. Although we decided the baguette was not the best we've ever had. Gave this platter an A-. We also got the sandwich au jambon which was good, but could've been better with better flavor combos. Still great quality. Loved the ham here. Also highly recommend the chai latte.

This coffee shop is one of a kind in the area of Boucherville. I always try to encourage local…read morecoffee shops and this one has never disappointed me. It is located in a very nice area with a beautiful market near it which is perfect for walks, especially during the summer. The coffee shop itself is beautiful, very nice seating area and a lot of space. It is perfect if you want to study because it's very cosy, but it's also good if you're grabbing lunch quickly or coffee on the go. I have tried their smoked salmon sandwich and a kale/beet salad which were both very delicious. The only issue I had was the price, I thought it was a bit pricier than other coffee shops or places where you can grab lunch quickly. Despite that, I can understand since it's a local coffee shop and everything they have is high quality and fresh. Their iced coffee is more of an iced cappuccino with crushed ice... So if you want something liquid like coffee with ice, I would recommend getting an iced latte. It was delicious, and they had a lot of options for people like me who are lactose intolerant (almond milk, soy milk, lactose-free, coco milk, oat milk, etc.) The staff is extremely nice. They're very knowledgeable and incredibly helpful. The first time I went there, the girl explained everything to me and how the café started and she looked very passionate which showed me that she liked her job. The only issue I'd have with this place is their opening hours. During the winter, if you're planning on late-night studying there, it doesn't open as late as other coffee places, but that's to be expected with local coffee shops like this one.

The Long Version: Hectare Cafe is located in a mini food hall called Le Coin Gourmand in Old Montreal. I was at One Babo in the same food hall getting a bubble tea and since my husband does not like bubble tea and is a coffee fiend, he popped into Hectare Cafe to get his third coffee of the day (!) He got a small Americano ($4). It came in a cool-looking paper cup that looked like a takeout container (see my photo). He enjoyed it and said it was delicious. I had a taste and it was ok, lol, but I'm not a coffee connoisseur and I don't like my coffee black the way he does. He said service was friendly. The food hall is cute. There's indoor seating but it's very small in there. I did spot some Haitian pastries like Pate Kòde which I'd love to try on a future visit. Review #212 (2025)

Located in the building with two other storefronts? Basically it shared the space with what looked like a Pho place and a Crepe/Boba place. We ordered a double espresso and a macchiato shot.

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!
