Le 49th Parallel Micro-Torréfacteur Cafe ouvre ses portes à Montréal à son tout premier emplacement hors de la Colombie-Britannique à l'été 2021. Trouver et créer cet espace a été un processus long, parfois difficile mais toujours intéressant, qui a pris plus d'un an !
L'espace lui-même, son emplacement au cœur du Vieux-Montréal et l'histoire du bâtiment ont constitué un attrait évident. Il s'agissait d'un travail d'amour de la part de toutes les personnes impliquées dans le projet, de l'entrepreneur au designer - tout le monde s'est uni pour préserver le charme de l'ancien bâtiment avec ses briques et sa maçonnerie de pierres centenaires exposées, tout en lui donnant vie avec un design rétro élégant.
Notre quatrième Café propose le café 49th que tout le monde connaît et adore, le menu de beignets Lucky's revisité avec des classiques québécois réimaginés et une cuisine complète proposant des hamburgers aux œufs pour le petit-déjeuner et des offres de brunch saisonnières (à venir).
Les avis sur 49th Parallel Café - Lucky's Doughnuts décrivent globalement une expérience axée sur un café de qualité et une belle variété de beignets, souvent frais et tentants, avec des options comme matcha ou chai latte qui plaisent et des beignets vanille, pistache ou chocolat très appréciés; certains commentent toutefois des variations de fraîcheur selon le jour et des temps d'attente plus longs que prévu, et d'autres trouvent les prix élevés pour le quartier. L'ambiance est fréquemment décrite comme agréable et propice au travail ou aux rencontres entre amis, avec un wifi correct et des espaces confortables, mais à certaines heures le lieu peut devenir bruyant et le volume musical peut paraître trop fort. L'emplacement central et le décor soigné renforcent l'attrait, et les avis soulignent souvent le charme et la sélection généreuse de donuts qui font un vrai point d'attraction. Dans l'ensemble, ce lieu demeure une halte populaire pour une pause sucrée ou une étude tranquille, bien notée pour le café et les douceurs et parfois ralentie par le service ou le prix.
This cafe almost feels like a hidden gem for students. A calm, bright safe haven for long study hours. Delicious coffee with prices on par with the current state of Montreal cafes (hello $7 iced latte). Enjoy the donuts earlier in the day, maybe skip near the end of the afternoon as they tend to get the tiniest bit hard. A favourite nonetheless!

I came to Montreal for holiday & had breakfast here my on my first day. The service was friendly & the store was bery clean.I still keep thinking about the pistachio brioche donut I had 😍 Absolutely delicious! I also got a breakfast sandwich, a croissant (buttery & yummy) & a latte, the coffee was great. I will have to come back next time I am in town 🍩
Really nice coffee shop with solid drinks & a good selection of treats. The coffee was good, & I appreciated that they also offer matcha. They have a nice variety of donuts & pastries, which all looked fresh & tempting. Overall, a pleasant spot to grab a drink & something sweet.
Coffee & doughnuts: a match made in Old Montreal heaven. ☕?🍩
If you're looking for the ultimate mid-day pick-me-up, 49th Parallel Café & Lucky's Doughnuts - McGill is calling your name. From their world-class direct-trade coffee to those legendary, hand-crafted Lucky's Doughnuts, it's the perfect spot to refuel in style.
Did you know that this stunning location-the brand's first-ever flagship outside of British Columbia-was a true labor of love? It took over a year to complete the renovation, meticulously preserving the building's 100-year-old exposed brick & stone masonry to blend Old Montreal charm with a sleek, retro aesthetic. ✨
Stop by to watch the pastry chefs through the glass-walled kitchen as they roll out fresh dough all day long! 🥐🏙?
It was our first time here. It's really a very cool place in the middle of downtown Montréal. It's cozy vibes gives the customers to enjoy coffee with bakery items & it's the WiFi facility makes the customers to sit here for long hours. Its prices are affordable in terms of coffee & donuts. I ordered matcha coffee, espresso coffee & the taste was amazing. The quality of the pistachio donut was okay types according to my experience but not too great as well but the raspberry donut was pretty good. Overall, it's a cool cafe to enjoy coffee & bakery items.
Grabbed a latte & a crème brûlée donut. Wow made my day. Well prepared quality coffee from first Sip beats & everything in the area. Price very decent but super high quality ( gold flakes on my crème brûlée!) amazing
We were only here for take out order, but the girl who served us was very polite. The coffees were made immediately & are tasty, as is the London fog. We also enjoyed the donuts. Location is what brought us here as it was around the corner from where we are staying. Worth a visit. Seems like atmosphere to hangout with a friend or to get some work done.
Honestly, not the best croissant & coffee in town. I went in with higher expectations based on the reviews, but the croissant was stale & the coffee tasted sour. It also felt like the coffee machine really needed a good cleaning based on the taste. Overall, it was disappointing.

We come here every time we go to Montreal, & I love their beignes. Enjoy a coffee & some beignes & watch tray after tray of fresh beigness being brought out every 15 to 30 minutes.
They have a nice variety. My personal favorites are the vanilla glazed & the vanilla roussette. My wife loves the chocolate glazed. However, my one disappointment is that they used to have this which we have not been able to get for many of our visits to Montreal. Please make these part of your regular offerings again
First time visiting this café & I was disappointed with the service. When I asked where the cutlery was, the answer was given in a rather curt tone, as if it should have been obvious, even though I'd never been there before. Even when handing me my coffee, the staff were cold & not engaging. It really didn't make me want to return.
Our fave coffee spot in downtown
Montreal. Perfect lattes & hot chocolates, the dreamiest foam art, cozy vibes, & that signature turquoise cup magic every time-it's our little city escape.

Came with kids for quick snack & coffee. The baked doughnuts were not too sweet & the kids loved it. Lots of sets to sit & have a chat & take a break. Does not offer pour over. But their filter & americano were pretty good. Would come again for a coffee break if we're in the area.
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.
