49th Parallel Café - Lucky's Doughnuts

4.0

Nice cozy cafe. I like the seating arrangement. There are some nice tucked-away tables in the corners around the cafe, less distraction.

I ordered a mocha to go. Unfortunately, it wasn't sweet enough to my liking. At first, I thought all the syrup was at the bottom & that the barista hadn't swirled/mixed thoroughly with the steamed milk... Alas, nothing there either. Tasted more like a regular latte. Also, not sure what the latte art design was supposed to be.....

Service was meh. Girl at the counter was very professional & helpful. The baristas making the drinks however were too busy chit-chatting with each other & not making any effort to acknowledge their customers. Simply called out the names & left the drinks on the counter without eye contact or greeting them.

I didn't try the donuts but I passed by the pastries & saw some really fancy-looking ones. Might have to give them a try next time I come back.

Really nice coffee shop with solid drinks & a good selection of treats. The coffee was good, & I appreciated that they also offer matcha. They have a nice variety of donuts & pastries, which all looked fresh & tempting. Overall, a pleasant spot to grab a drink & something sweet.

Possibly one of the best cafés in the Old Port area: great coffee & pastries, beautiful interior decoration, spacious, friendly service. Expect a line up at rush hour. Highly recommended.

The ambiance was nice. The service was okay. The coffee & chocolate were delicious. The pastries are delicious too. However, the only inconvenience is that the pastries can't be reheated so they're cold or hard.

Many sitting places to take a coffee & pastries. They have so many different options & interesting flavours. I got pudding chômeur & it was GOOD. I find a price is ok for the size of donut, good customer service & relaxing ambiance.

Excellent coffee but on the expensive side, almost 8$ for a cortado, which is much more than other coffees places around. They have also fresh pastries from the bakery in the back. They have a lot of places to work or study with plugs everywhere, they also have a great terrace! Overall its a great place!!

A reasonable place for a quick bite. You can also observe the baking process going on behind glass doors. Sandwich, house made pastries & bagels are available.

Really good pastries/donuts. We had a traditional triple chocolate & a choco-caramel. Delicious. Went in the late afternoon & few choices were left which makes sense at the end of the day. Were also out of drip coffee by then. Go earlier for more. Enjoyed people watching out the large windows.

Best doughnuts I've ever tasted! Specially the salted caramel doughnut!! I wouldn't normally spend almost 30$ for 6 doughnuts, but I would for these premium quality level pastries. I'm very disappointed that there is not a location in my hometown of Toronto.

Not sure why this gets such great reviews. Pastries & coffee are expensive & so so. Staff are nice. More cleanup on tables & in bathrooms is needed. Garbage can in handicapped bathroom overflowing onto ground & bathroom tissue everywhere. For this price I would expect much better.

Awesome spot! It is a very cozy vibe, the doughnuts are obviously so delicious & the coffee was super enjoyable! Make sure you don't come too late so you have a better selection for the pastries! Will definitely be coming back & highly suggest you give it a try!

Omg ... I have realised how this place is from the inside ... they have a variety of pastries & donuts which are delicious.. Place is usually crowded ... not for someone who wants to sit & talk ...
