Review Summary

Ambrose Café shows mixed reviews, with some finding the space cozy and study friendly, noting a welcoming atmosphere, good drinks like a dirty chai latte and a decent matcha, and a spacious layout with plenty of outlets. However, other observations mention very bright lighting, loud music, and coffee prepared inconsistently, including a latte with texture issues. The overall vibe and service speed vary, leading some patrons to not plan a return even when the space is appreciated. Comments also touch on using the cafe for work or thesis writing and a few mentions of skipping it in Montreal's cafe scene.

Update: I'm editing my review to include an incredible experience I had today. Since my umbrella was wet from the rain, I left it in the stand near the door. But when I was about to leave I noticed my umbrella was missing. I don't know whether someone took it by mistake or if it was an act of theft. Anyway, when I brought the issue to the lovely barista, an employee of the hotel (Nathanael) overheard my concern & offered to help. He literally went out in rain & got me a new umbrella! Just asked me to return it once I got something of my own. This should be a textbook example of going above & beyond. Goes to show how some employees take pride in their work & elevate the customer experience even if they don't have to. I'd cherish this kind gesture forever.

Original review:
I'm officially in love with this cute little cafe. Doesn't feel like a typical "designed by corporate" or "trying to be hip" cafe. Instead, it makes you feel as if you've stepped into your study in your home.

I tried their latte & croissant; they were good. Barista was nice & polite.
