Atomic Café comes across as a quirky retro cafe with a vintage, rock and punk vibe and a welcoming, artsy atmosphere that attracts people for work, study or casual hangouts. Reviews praise the on point decoration, good music, and drinks, with coffee often described as excellent and items like the hot dog and the turkey and pesto sandwich standing out. The open mic Thursdays and the lively mood add a social edge, while the space is spacious, calm for focus, and full of character. Service quality is mixed but generally friendly, with some staff described as super nice and joking around, and others noted as slow or nonchalant. Decor is repeatedly highlighted as unique and authentic, recalling vintage elements and retro futuristic touches, sometimes with a lived in vibe. The menu is appreciated for variety and freshness, though some sandwiches can be chewy or not as strong as other items, and a few reviews mention cleanliness issues or unpleasant restroom experiences. Overall Atomic Café emerges as a neighborhood staple with good prices, great background music, and a warm, if imperfect, atmosphere that makes it easy to stay long and enjoy a coffee, a sandwich, or a chat.

La déco & la nourriture sont super mais malheureusement, plusieurs employés donnent l'impression qu'on les dérange. Pas de service à la terrasse & employé qui vient fumer sa cigarette collé sur la terrasse. Ne pas s'attendre à un sourire ou un salut quand on y rentre. C'est dommage car c'est une cool place mais certains employés gâchent totalement l'ambiance.

Longtime Hochelaga coffee shop with a groove. Good latté. View of Ontario Street. Interior design from the jet age!

Was in desperate need of a hangover americano & carbs. atomic was open & I ordered an Americano with the Atomoeuf, with the sliced turkey. The first few choices were unavailable as it was early but the breakfast bagel sandwich was great. The Americano helped out but had some grinds, but I didn't mind as I'd asked for a large so I assume it was a loose allongé. It was surprisingly cheap as well, only $12 after tips & tax for a coffee & hearty sandwich. I'll be back over & over.

Service plus que decevant ! Nous avions l'impression de déranger. Nous n'avons pas eu de "bonjour" & elle nous ne répondait pas lorsque nous lui parlons. Elle nous ignorait complètement. De plus, lorsque j'ai commandé mon café, je me suis faite fortement recommandé, par elle, de le prendre pour apportez ! Pourtant, nous sommes arrivés 45 minutes avant la fermeture. Je le déconseille fortement dû au pire service que j'ai recu jusqu'à présent.
