Wow! Nous avons adoré! Évidemment le café est délicieux, mais j'ai adoré l'ambiance, le service & le look général de ce café! C'est un endroit qui semble très populaire car c'était rempli un samedi PM.

Atmosphere parfaite, pour fêter la première pluie de cet automne, on écoute Riders in the Rain (The Doors) &'have you ever seen the rain'. Chai Latte sublime & des beignes colorés & delicieux même pour ceux qui veulent pas du gluten. Merci. P. S. & quand vous pensez que ça peut pas devenir encore mieux, la chanson'Harvest Moon' commence. Oui, on l'a vue la nuit dernière.

49th Parallel came through with donuts so big they could probably qualify as real estate. I thought I was grabbing a quick sweet tooth snack, but one donut was enough to feed my whole family tree. Size aside, they're actually really good... like really good: fluffy, sweet, & worth every bite.

I paired mine with a regular coffee. Coffee was… fine. Standard fuel, nothing to write home about. The donut definitely stole the show.

I almost went for takeout until I saw those paper bags. Let's just say me vs. giant donut in a tiny paper bag would've been a public anger-management seminar, so I opted to sat down dine-in instead. Good call! the café has solid wifi, nice atmosphere, & I didn't have to battle pastry packaging.

Prices lean on the higher side, especially for coffee, but honestly, the donuts make it worth it. If you're in Old Montreal & want to test your sweet tooth stamina, this is the spot.
