From the team behind Ristorante Beatrice, Améa is a Mediterranean-inspired gourmand resto / pizzeria + coffee shop nestled within Montreal’s historic Maison Alcan building.
Derived from the French word "âme" meaning soul, Améa is an ode to the vision, warmth and heart behind our menu.
Améa Café is a large, stylish space with a welcoming, varied seating layout that works for studying, meeting friends, or catching up with coworkers. Reviews praise the ambience, the architectural vibe, and the extensive pastry and coffee selection, with notable mentions of croissants, pistachio desserts, and creative bites alongside Mediterranean and lunch options like shakshuka, pizzas, and bowls. The food and drinks are described as fresh and visually appealing, though several notes point to high prices for relatively small portions and some inconsistency in taste or service during busy periods. The staff and atmosphere are frequently highlighted as friendly and efficient, yet lines can be long, seating may be hard to find at peak times, and some guests report noise levels that hinder quiet work. Overall, Améa Café appears as a beautiful, buzzy hub in the city offering an impressive array of pastries, coffees, and casual meals, with strong value when visiting for a relaxed brunch or casual work but variable experience during peak hours.
Les pâtisseries sont très bonnes & le café aussi. Le personnel travaille fort car malgré l'achalandage, tout le monde est en action. L'endroit est super beau & l'ambiance est très bonne. 5/5!

Ce n'est certainement pas un bon café pour étudier tranquillement, beaucoup trop de gens & très bruyant. La nourriture était médiocre, cher pour ce que c'était & aucun assaisonnement…
Super cool atmosphere, loved this hidden spot in downtown. Tumeric latte was very special if you like the taste of tumeric in cafe. I loved the Avocado mushroom toast, very fresh. Kannafe & matcha cookie were nice choices.
Lovely place to hang out for a while, I saw a lot of people working there, finding a free table is a little bit tricky, we had a slice of pizza & some pastries, they were all very good, beautiful building & atmosphere. One of the many Cafés in montreal worth the visit
I love this place for coworking. There are so many areas where you could work. During lunch time it gets busy since they serve lunch (which is a plus if you're spending the day there). Best matcha . For the ones having calls, it's not the most quiet place but it works pretty well as a coworking place.
Le cadre magnifique , café normale ,vinnoiserie & la pâtisserie catastrophique ( sucre exagéré, chocolat utilisé mauvaise qualité) les prix très chers par apport à la qualité.
