Amazing place for studying/working, quick brunch with friends, taking a break from shopping in downtown, etc
Think: wework meets cafe. It's a huge space with plenty of seating & even booths/areas that could be good for having meetings. Seriously, a lot of the furniture/chairs looked similar to what I've seen in my office/weworks.
We came around 8:45 on a Saturday & learned that while the cafe is open early, the kitchen opens at 9am, but they still let us preorder something. We got a pastry, matcha latte, & shakshuka.
The pastry was delicious. It was a tomato & pesto pastry with goat cheese. The pastry was so flaky & soft at the same time. My mom ate the tomato lol but the goat cheese & pesto combo was chefs kiss. Lots of other sweet pastries looked decadent.
The matcha latte (unsweetened) was shockingly great quality. Dark green color, strong matcha flavor, probably the best in the area (though I've only tried a couple matchas). I would highly recommend if you want something that's not grocery store bought quality.
Shakshuka was also one of the best I've had. A lot of times it's watery but this tomato base was thick & flavorful. Little seeds of pomegranate were a nice surprise. The (sourdough?) bread that comes with it was also so good, but it only comes with two slices & since the shakshuka was pretty big portion we had to order more.
Not sure if this is also a public space, but if so it's even better as a place to rest between shopping! Has WiFi, outlets, & restrooms.
Note: I tried to come back a couple days later but on Google Maps it said closed everyday. Not sure if it's bc of vacation.
I had such a lovely experience at Améa Café ☕? Everything was perfect from start to finish. The food was absolutely delicious, the beetroot latte was incredible, & the pastries were just amazing! The atmosphere is warm & coz. A perfect spot to work, study or enjoy quality time with friends or family. Highly recommend this place
Beautiful study spot with amazing food to get me through finals. It's a bit pricey, but so is everything nowadays. The atmosphere is absolutely gorgeous & all the pastries looked incredible! I came on a Sunday just after opening & stayed all day until closing at 3. The place was packed the whole time!
I had the shakshouka. The crispy chickpeas & pomegranate seeds on top really put this over the top. So so delicious & very filling.

This place has its own unique atmosphere, delicious cuisine & pastries. It is a good place to work on your laptop or spend time with a friend. Sometimes it's too busy & noisy so not very comfortable to talk.
mea Café is one of those polished, design-forward café-restaurants that leans more toward a'high-end cafeteria' than a traditional coffee shop. Located inside the historic Maison Alcan, the space is a standout: large, bright, with high ceilings & a refined, almost architectural feel.
The food is Mediterranean-inspired, with a menu that goes beyond pastries-Roman-style pizzas, salads, vegetable dishes, & brunch plates. Execution is generally strong, with good ingredient quality & clean presentation. Pastries & desserts are a highlight, although consistency can vary depending on the item.
Service is casual (order at the counter, food brought to table), & the place is clearly optimized for a mix of use cases: quick lunch, informal meetings, or working sessions.
hidden gem right between Mcgill & Concordia downtown campus. The cafe is within a building with an open space seating type. Your food gets brought to you while you have to pick up your drink from the bar. The pistachio round pastry was so delicious & sweet. The chai latte was good. The avocado toast I got was good, I just wished the mushrooms & eggs were warmer. Would definitely go back for the pastries.
The pastries are disappointingly poor, the atmosphere way too loud, & a staff person kicked me out of my table, which was apparently reserved for noon at 11:45am. They really need to up their pastry game: the meringue was gritty (sugar not properly mixed in), the laminated pastry was chewy rather than flaky, & the flavours need improvement as well. Very pretty place, though.
I really enjoy coming here. I try & get out of my house to work & love that they have a lot of spots for seating.
The Cafe is open early & serves pastries & drinks. You can order to go or stay & enjoy. If I'm not mistaken I think you can order breakfast food from the kitchen but that's it. The Lunch menu / Kitchen isn't available until lunch time. There you will have an abundance of lunch options from sandwiches, pizzas, salads, etc.
I've had their sandwiches, very large portions & very delicious. It is on the pricier side but good nonetheless. If you plan on eating inside the cafe, they give you a number & bring you your food which is nice especially when you're studying or chatting with friends.
The servers are very friendly & the space is kept very clean!
Only caveat is that I wish there were more spots with outlets - there are booths that don't have outlets & it would be better if they did. They do have other spots with outlets available so it's definitely not the end of the world.
Overall, I come here a lot & enjoy my time. Just know if you stay for a long period of time your pockets will feel it lol
