Review Summary

Améa Café is widely celebrated for its stunning architectural design, spacious atmosphere, and vibrant, cozy energy that makes it a popular destination for working, studying, or socializing. While the overall ambiance and visual presentation of the Mediterranean-inspired menu receive high praise, experiences with food and service quality can be inconsistent. Many visitors rave about the delicious pastries, unique desserts, and flavorful brunch items like the shakshouka, though some have noted concerns regarding portion sizes, pricing, and occasional service delays or communication issues during busy periods. Despite being a bustling hotspot that can get quite noisy, most customers consider it a must-visit location in downtown Montreal and appreciate the variety of fresh food and beverage options available throughout the day.

Cute but spacious coffee shop with a nice atmosphere overall. I originally ordered the smoked salmon & eggs on sourdough, but after a while I was informed that they had run out of salmon, so I had to choose another dish. I ended up ordering the mushrooms & eggs, which turned out to be very tasty & enjoyable. Despite the change in my order, I had a pleasant experience.

I am simply commenting about the good service I receive as a regular for years now, & due to the fact that I witnessed Mr EDUARDO PENA ROJAS' behaviour for myself along with the poor behaviour of the people he was with yesterday. I would honestly tell people to truly disregard his comment. Bullying female hard working staff when he himself cannot communicate what he wants will NEVER be an employee's fault. Go somewhere else, as a client, I hated seeing how you treat staff at Amea Cafe.

I definitely not recommend you to come to this coffe. Mc do have a better service than this place.
I will never come back with any family or clients.
The manager & chefs are good & really nice but the coffee station act like they are working at Prada'mean girls', definitely not Comming back for them. They asked me twice why I wanted to change my coffe for a cup to go, because I don't finish it ? Why I need to explain a simple thing like this? & when I asked for no caffein tea, they offered me something that they don't even have in the menu, why ? They make me change the drink because they don't have it. You need to know your menu & your stock.

Really cute cafe. Love to study & work remote here but certain spots don't allow laptops during 12:00 & 2:30. Plus there are very few outlets so if your laptop doesn't hold a charge well you'll probably be out of luck.

Very good matcha latte & nice interior, but it definitely feels very hectic & busy. There was a bit of a line & a bit of a wait during a weekday lunch

Had to wait 5 mins to order a matcha even though there was no line & the staff was just talking & laughing while avoiding eye contact. Then the iced matcha itself had chunks of matcha powder. If im paying 10$ for matcha at least blend it well. The staff, service, & food at the food section is great though. The drinks staff gotta lock in. This is my first ever review on anything bc it was just that bad.

The dessert & ambiance is the best. But the food during lunch is really not that good.
But then again, the place itself makes up for the food.

Have a coffee & a croissant stuffed with strawberries jam & you'll be hooked :)
