About

49th Parallel Café - Lucky's Doughnuts specializes in high-quality third-wave coffee paired with handcrafted, small-batch doughnuts. The establishment focuses on precise roasting profiles for its direct-trade beans to ensure a consistent, nuanced flavor profile across all beverages. Each doughnut features creative glazes and fillings made from scratch, utilizing fresh, high-quality ingredients that prioritize texture and depth of taste. The minimalist industrial aesthetic provides a clean, focused atmosphere conducive to appreciating the complexity of the artisanal coffee program. Expert baristas manage every pour-over and espresso shot with rigorous attention to extraction standards. This dual-focus model delivers a refined experience that bridges the gap between sophisticated coffee culture and indulgent, expertly crafted pastry work. The result is an accessible yet exacting standard for specialty caffeine and confectionery excellence.

On a cold winter morning, I decided to order a hot chocolate here. I also took the opportunity to taste their vegan donuts. They have assorted flavours (matcha, rainbow sprinkles, red fruits & flowers, sprinkled candy, triple chocolate, vanilla). I'm so delighted, the vegan donuts are also gluten-free! They are baked instead of fried. The glaze is sooo sweet, it feels heavy to eat these for breakfast. 😵‍💫 The hot chocolate came out with pretty latte art. 😍 However, my throat felt scorched dry for the rest of the day after drinking it. 🔥 I suspect the roasted cacao to be the culprit.

Coffee, amazing. Avo breakfast sandwich, amazing. Service, amazing. Atmosphere, so good. Love everything about this cafe! Disclaimer: I work for 49th in Vancouver, so I may be a bit biased -- but, I would give 49th 5 stars across the board no matter what! :)

$9.09 for an iced mocha with oat milk... before tip. Really? This may be the most expensive & overpriced glass of mocha you can find in all of Montreal. I love this place, it's cozy & pretty but none of it justifies the price.

Average coffee, but a huge selection of different rolls, croissants & donuts. On a weekend, there may even be a decent queue closer to noon

Les beignets à la pistache étaient vraiment éclatés au sol. Ils sont 3 derrière le bar pour sortir en 15 min 2 chocolat, belle perf. Le service à la caisse était tout à fait convenable. Café fait pour les traders Tik tok qui prennent les places de 8h a 18h pour rentabiliser leur formation de Oussama Amar. Allez à Tim Hortons vous serez mieux reçu !

Absolutely love this place. I come here nearly everyday to work. May I request you guys add a keto/low carb bread option for your sandwiches? Your sandwiches look good but I can't have it cause I am usually on low carb diet.

10/10 donuts, caffeine, & atmosphere. Great spot to work as there is ample space. Limited outlets though. Baristas & FOH team is all very kind. In the summer there's a lovely patio to the side to sit under the sun.

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.
