Reviews of Café à Rome mix praise for the coffee and breakfast with critique of availability and service. The cappuccino is described as boiling hot at first, becoming drinkable only after a wait, while the cafe is also noted for excellent coffee and a breakfast that many enjoy.

The venue is noted for its many screens, an energetic crowd during finals, and generous Ricard pours that add to the vibe. It is also seen as a prime place to catch European soccer matches. Not all feedback is positive, with at least one review suggesting the mood can feel unfriendly for English speakers and pointing to limited entertainment options, such as digital darts and a pool table, that may not invite longer stays. Overall, the place is viewed as a standout spot in Montreal by many, though experiences can vary with language and expectations for game night energy.View restaurant profile

Review Summary

La Cage is described as a lively sports bar with a welcoming atmosphere, big screens for games, and free popcorn that many reviewers enjoy, along with a broad menu and reasonable prices for the location. The service is praised as friendly and attentive, with staff noted for hospitality and efficiency, though experiences vary and some visits suffered slow or uneven kitchen performance during busy times. The food earns mixed reviews, with several standout items such as fish tacos, burgers, onion soup and a Caesar salad, but other dishes like poutine or wings have disappointed guests when cold, under seasoned, or poorly timed. The venue is popular for pre show meals due to its proximity to a central arts venue and for watching sports with friends, and the lively vibe makes it a good choice for groups and families, but reservations or busy evenings can lead to rushed service or restrictions. Overall La Cage is seen as a solid, enjoyable option for casual dining, good beers, and a festive atmosphere, with strong hospitality but some inconsistency in food quality and pacing during peak hours.View restaurant profile
