Les toasts aux avocats ont changé. C'était des avocats frais avec du chimichurri vraiment délicieux. Maintenant c'est une pate d'avocat peu fraiche & il n'y a plus de chimichurri & plus le meme pain. Mais le prix n'a pas changé meme si la recette est de moins bonne qualité. A part ça l'espace est grand & tres beau avec une super belle ambiance.

4 stars because the donuts are crazy expensive. Would have been 5 stars otherwise. Coffee is great 👌🏻 IMO, it's a missed opportunity that they didn't translate their name to "Café 49e Parallèle" in Québec.

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!!

Caveat for those who are interested in avo toast. 1) what I googled & got 2) what I really got. Everyone there is nice & friendly. My go-to for tough days at work.

The donuts were awesome. The sandwich was amazing. I find it very hard to find a decent apple fritter as most places either make it wrong, burn it, or don't cook it enough so it ends up being raw in the middle. This place nailed it & not only that but throw some bacon on top & it's the perfect sweet & savory combination. I only wish I had more time to visit there. They did a bang up job on the coffee as well. Very friendly staff. I cannot recommend this place enough.

Stumbled upon this spot for some iced lattes on a Sunday afternoon. Great coffee, pleasant service, & a very cute setting.

I love their vegan donuts but I wish that after all this time they would add some more flavours especially since it cost $5.75 for one after tax & they put more expensive ingredients & more time into the non-vegan ones - which they charge less for.
