Reviewers describe Maman in Griffintown as a charming, cozy cafe with a warm, French countryside bakery vibe blended with a modern urban energy, a reliable weekday brunch and lunch spot that stays busy but inviting. The pastry program is a frequent standout, with almond and pistachio croissants, pain au chocolat and other beautiful, fresh treats that many guests praise. Breakfast and lunch items like pancakes, French toast, a generous breakfast sandwich, ratatouille toast, and a varied sandwich lineup receive praise for flavor and generosity, though a few notes point to certain dishes being a touch sweet or not as memorable. Coffee and drinks often earn compliments, including distinctive options such as tahini honey latte, lavender latte, and a solid cappuccino, while some visits report inconsistency or longer waits during peak times. Service is described as friendly and efficient on many visits, with the owner and staff warmly welcoming guests, yet other experiences mention overwhelmed staff, slow service, and a crowded, noisy room with close tables. Prices run a bit high for a casual cafe, but several reviewers feel the quality justifies the cost, and reservations are advised on weekends due to popularity. Overall the space, decor and vibe are repeatedly praised, making Maman a go to spot for a comforting brunch and a place to linger over pastry and coffee, even if some visits fall short on timing or balance.View restaurant profile

Overall, Lili & Oli comes across as a warm, family friendly cafe with a cozy vibe, ample seating, bright light, and a back terrace that adds to the charm. The staff are consistently friendly and quick, and the space welcomes children with toys, making it easy for families to settle in. The coffee and drinks receive mixed notes: many praise the quality and variety, including good lattes and cortados, while a few find the coffee bitter or the matcha latte too strong; self serve toppings and a range of teas are a plus for some, though a couple of reviews mention disappointing drinks. Pastries and light bites are generally well regarded, with several mentions of fresh scones, muffins, and breakfast sandwiches, while a few say the food is not the strongest part of the experience. The cafe can be busy, which suits the lively vibe but can affect quiet work or long chats, and a weekend policy restricting laptop use is noted as both a relief for some and a drawback for others. Outdoor seating is a highlight and the overall atmosphere makes it a good spot for quick bites with friends, family time, or a relaxed read.View restaurant profile

Reviews about Hazukido show a mix of standout pastries and uneven value, with many praising the almond and English cream croissant, the pistachio croissant, the strawberry purée croissant, the biscoff crokie, and the salmon croissant, as well as the quality of laminage and the butter-rich textures, while others report croissants that are dry, not fresh, or too pricey for what is offered. The concept and creative flavor pairings are repeatedly lauded, though the dining space is described as simple with limited seating and occasional gaps in recommendations or atmosphere, and service is often noted as friendly. Several comments reference limited menu options later in the day and a tendency for sweetness to feel overpowering, though gifts for birthdays and drinks like iced caramel macchiato or coffee and tea pairings are mentioned as positives, along with occasional high marks for overall pastry quality. Overall Hazukido is viewed as a place of excellent pastry craftsmanship and inventive flavors, but with variability in freshness, portions, and perceived value across visits.View restaurant profile

Many reviews praise the quality of breads, croissants, pastries and coffee, highlighting a broad variety and the pleasure of trying something new on each visit.
