Across reviews, Pikolo Espresso Bar is described as a beloved craft-focused cafe in the arts district, where the coffee is often rich and smooth and drinks like cortados, iced Americano, espresso and matcha are well received, and the pastry selection ranging from buttery croissants to donuts is generally praised; latte art is frequently noted as gorgeous, the atmosphere is chic yet cozy and easy to work in, and the staff are usually friendly and patient, with fast wifi and a simple, welcoming vibe. However, some critiques point to crowding during peak hours, limited food options, occasional inconsistency in coffee quality, and practical annoyances such as insufficient outlets and cups not ideal for iced drinks; there are also moments of standout service, including a manager who helped during a disturbing incident, and a sense of community fostered by small touches like a complimentary magazine. Overall, Pikolo is seen as a reliable go-to for caffeine and bakery items with strong days and occasional bumps in quality or service.View restaurant profile

Review Summary

Bah! Café feels like a little Brazil in Montreal, with a cozy, homey vibe, warm energy and bright, colorful decor that makes it easy to linger over great coffee and Brazilian fare. Reviews praise the coffee as excellent and the pastries as the stars, especially pão de queijo, coxinha, farroupilha, and sweet treats like lemon cake, carrot cake, pão de mel and corn cake, with many calling the pão de queijo the best in Canada. The staff are consistently friendly and attentive, creating a welcoming atmosphere that makes visitors feel at home, though a few mentions note slower service or distractions with phones and some questions about decaf or table service. The space is seen as versatile for studying, catching up with friends, or a quick bite, with a patio and a kid friendly setup and a sense of Brazil through the food and ambiance. Overall, it is a beloved neighborhood spot with authentic flavor, good energy, and a strong lineup of drinks and bites.View restaurant profile
