Review Summary

49th Parallel Café - Lucky's Doughnuts is widely celebrated for its high-quality coffee and impressive selection of flavorful, decadent donuts, often described as some of the best in Montreal. The cafe offers a beautiful, spacious, and welcoming atmosphere that makes it a popular destination for both remote work and social gatherings. While many guests appreciate the efficient service and friendly staff, experiences can be inconsistent, with some reports of long wait times, occasional staffing issues, and variability in product freshness or menu availability. Despite the higher price point and occasional crowded conditions, the overall aesthetic, convenient location in Old Montreal, and the quality of the specialty treats ensure that it remains a frequent destination for locals and tourists alike.

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.
