Regulars say it is a go to favorite that never fails to deliver fun and memories, with many highlighting affordable prices and generous service. However, caveats appear: the venue is sometimes said to smell old, cleanliness and upkeep can be variable, the washrooms can be wet or in need of attention, and on some nights the DJ or music balance can be uneven. Overall, VV Taverna is viewed as a must try for dancing and social energy, with improvements in ambience and space noted over time.View restaurant profile

Review Summary

Reviews describe Boulangerie MariePain as a friendly neighborhood bakery with solid offerings, where almond croissants and tomato pizza receive wide praise and, despite a limited selection, most items are excellent. The shop is noted for cleanliness, well stocked fridges, fast and courteous service, and staff who are generally welcoming, with a new manager bringing perceived improvements and a more diverse team that reflects the local culture. Some observers worry about rising prices and a perceived drop in quality, leading to doubts about returning. Others highlight quality products and attentive service, while some pastries are criticized for being too sweet and lacking finesse. A few notes advise calling ahead since viennoiseries are not baked on site and some items may be from the previous day, with textures varying. A tart with pecans reportedly had an undercooked crust and overcooked edges, dampening the experience but the bakery remains a reasonable option for bread, pastries, and desserts with a friendly vibe.View restaurant profile

Review Summary

Infinithe receives mixed feedback, with the General Tao described as delicious and offered at a good price, and the bubble tea noted as really good, prompting a definite recommendation to try the place.

Starbucks

Greenfield Park, Longueuil

Review Summary

Starbucks locations are described in the reviews as a mixed bag with a generally warm atmosphere and clean spaces in some branches, while others feel busier and louder. Service is praised when staff are friendly, attentive and efficient, particularly in a lively environment, but many customers report slow and inconsistent service, long waits at the counter or drive-thru, and occasional order errors or missing items. Price and portion size are noted by several readers as issues, with drinks sometimes priced high and cups perceived as smaller than expected, and some complaints about unavailable items that are advertised. Accessibility and space vary, with some locations offering a spacious feel and outdoor seating, while parking and drive-thru queues can create congestion. Mobile ordering helps some customers, and a few branches are singled out for delivering a consistently good chai latte and solid coffee, yet experiences can differ greatly from one branch to another across Montreal and the South Shore.View restaurant profile
