La Taverne de Noël

Opens Today at 8 am

Mile-End Le Plateau-Mont-Royal

Café Desserts & Sweets Pizza Casse-Croute (Snack Bar)

Review Summary

Overall, reviews describe La Taverne de Noël as a magical, heavily decorated Christmas setting that draws crowds for photos and vibes, but the experience is very uneven. The decor and festive atmosphere get top marks for being cozy and instagrammable, with enchanting details and holiday music that some reviews later note not always present. Long waits outside in the cold and a crowded interior are commonly mentioned, as is a lack of clear service organization and a no table service format that makes ordering feel slow and impersonal. Drinks are praised by some for being tasty and atmospheric, including hot chocolate with marshmallows and a range of seasonal cocktails, yet others find them overpriced, underwhelming, or too sweet or cold. The food ranges from surprisingly delicious pizzas and desserts to items described as mediocre or reheated, with some menu items unavailable at times. Overall, La Taverne de Noël offers a undeniably festive and photogenic experience that many visitors enjoy with friends and family, but timing, crowd management, and inconsistent quality mean it may disappoint those seeking a reliable, high quality meal.View restaurant profile
