49th Parallel Café - Lucky's Doughnuts Montreal Restaurant: Menu, Reviews & Reserve (2026)
CaféDesserts & SweetsBreakfastBoutique-CounterBrunch

49th Parallel Micro-Torréfacteur Cafe opens its doors in Montreal at its first ever location outside of British Columbia in the summer of 2021. Finding and creating this space was a long, occasionally challenging but always interesting process that took over a year to complete!

The space itself, its location in the heart of Old Montreal and the building’s history were an obvious draw. This was a labour of love from all the people involved in the project, from the contractor to the designer – everyone came together to preserve the charm of the old building with its exposed 100 year old bricks and stone masonry while bringing it to life with a sleek retro design.

Our fourth Café features the 49th coffee everyone knows and loves, Lucky’s donut menu revamped with reimagined Quebec classics and a full kitchen featuring breakfast egg burgers and seasonal brunch offerings (coming soon).

Review Summary

Overall, reviews of the café known as 49th Parallel Café Lucky's Doughnuts describe a popular Old Montreal spot with strong coffee and a tempting pastry selection, especially its donuts which are large, indulgent, and often delicious, though some customers find them too sweet, dry, or pricey. Coffee quality ranges from well brewed, single origin and smooth to burnt or inconsistent, with reports of pastries not being fresh or stock from previous days. The atmosphere is repeatedly praised as cozy, stylish, and conducive to work or catching up with friends, with reliable wifi and ample seating, but crowding or loud music can detract. Service receives mixed feedback: friendly and efficient at times, sometimes slow or brusque, and a few disappointments with staff interactions. Location in Old Montreal is a draw, and reviewers linger for long stays or grab quick takeout. Overall, it is a beloved yet pricey destination that excels in donuts and ambiance more than uniform value across visits.

I wanted to try the Grilled Cheese on their Menu today (Sunday) around 5pm But I got told by the cashier the kitchen was Closed even if on the Menu it says Weekend 8-3am. Im guessing the kitchen close at 2pm on Sunday like any weekdays at their location. So my suggestion-advice is If you want to eat something on their Menu (Other than Donuts) on weekends Make sure to go before 2pm.

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.

Good service. I find the area in the back for laid back because of the seating layout with couches & the fake fireplace. Cute café where people can work, study or just talk with friends.

Top tier coffee shop. They have San remo Cafe racer espresso machine. Top tier grinders & a very balanced medium roast espresso bean. Lucky donuts are pricey but very much worth it. I would say this store matches the quality of their original shop in kitsilano Vancouver.

Passage rapide pour prendre une boisson & un petit quelque chose à manger. Découverte des donuts vegan de Lucky's. Mention spéciale pour le côté gourmand du citron pavot.

Food is amazing if you can get it but they have some of the worst service on the island. We're talking "Line is backing up to the door & we have only one of two cash opened & the cashier also prepares the order so she processes like one client per 5 minutes"
