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 se présente comme un espace vaste et élégant, avec une ambiance cosy et lumineuse qui invite aussi bien à travailler qu’à se détendre, et une offre variée de boissons, de pâtisseries et de plats méditerranéens où chaque détail visuel semble soigné. Les avis mettent en avant des desserts et des viennoiseries frais et créatifs, des croissants pistache et des croissants supreme, un café de qualité et des options brunch ou lunch appréciables, parfois complétés par des pizzas ou des plats nourrissants. Le cadre attire par ses nombreuses places et ses zones dédiées au travail ou au calme; toutefois la fréquentation peut être bruyante et les files d’attente longues, et certaines portions sont jugées petites ou les prix élevés pour ce qu'elles apportent. Dans l’ensemble, Améa Café est perçu comme une adresse chaleureuse et esthétique avec une offre gourmande et un service sympathique, qui vaut le coup d’y jeter un œil pour son atmosphère et son potentiel de coworking, tout en restant conscient des périodes d’affluence et de la variabilité de certains plats ou pâtisseries.
Food was good, but the area itself & layout was what I enjoyed the most so many different kinds of places to sit & eat, would come back just to sit & have a coffee to be honest
Loved the food, coffee & experience. The strawberry pain dorée is a must try, very fresh, shakshouka was good too. Variety of options to choose from, Service was fast & waiters were very nice. Many seatings available on Sunday if you go before 10:30 am. Greenery & art all over the place which is also nice. It closes at 4 pm thats only the downside but otherwise I recommend it.
Nice place, but they forgot our order. Brunch food didn't taste good, pastries were okay. My fiancés eggs were undercooked. Disappointing as the ambience is great, but I highly suggest to only have coffee & sweets & not the food..
Cool spot, decent food, some items are quite overpriced but can't expect less nowadays. Barista with pink hair is quite disrespectful. Pretty sure someone new was being trained & as though it looked like this barista in question was about to help & get plates, she came empty handed & just smiled at the newbie. (Even customers knew she needed plates, it was in the context). I was given a buzzer & it was not buzzing at all. I start realizing that it's been a while since i've ordered, so I check & the barista looks at me, saying that my number has been buzzing endlessly. I'm pretty sure anyone would've felt it buzzing being held in hand directly. Sure, my fault for not realizing any sooner, but that's not a problem to me. I would've gotten my coffee anyways. The buzzer itself could've had dead batteries or something but for her to say that it's been "buzzing forever" & shrug off a laugh while keeping her head down is what loses the charm & lowers the image of the place overall.
It's a self-service cafe/restaurant but the person serving me behind the counter gave me excellent recommendations for my first time here & I highly appreciated it! It truly elevated my experience & I'm so grateful! The blueberry almond croissant is amazing & hit the spot (not too sweet but excellent fresh texture) & I can't wait to try my crookie later! The coffee is good! I look forward to the opportunity to come back! 😊

Conveniently located downtown Montreal, it is a nice place to visit for breakfast, brunch, lunch or a coffee. Lots of room divided in different areas, so no worries to find a seating. We really enjoyed the « croque mademoiselle » for brunch with a nice latte. We'll be back to taste for items on the extended menu. Service was ok with the person that brought our plates, he seemed new & obviously lack experience in servicing. This is a self semi self service as you order at the counter & you get the coffee when it is ready while the food is brought to your table. Worth the detour!
Nice for a tea time or morning coffee Too busy & noisy at lunch time We liked the NY rolls, with a nice London fog ! A lot of choice for savory or sweet food Plenty of seats as well
The vibe is fantastic, beautiful spacious place to work, meet friends/colleagues, chill or have a nice brunch/food. Different furniture setups for various preferences. I tried cheese & mushroom toast which was great & a dessert with coffee. They were tasty & great.
The food & the place are instagramable. The ambiance is classy & the food is a bit expensive. The mochaccino is rich & has the right amount of sweetness, coffee, & chocolate. We ordered Patate E Pancetta (5⭐️ for me), Croissant Supreme (3.5⭐️, Cannoli (4⭐️), & Formaggiosa (4⭐️).
