Located at the corner of Fairmount and Jeanne-Mance in the heart of the Mile End, Au Coin is a versatile neighborhood gem that transitions seamlessly from a relaxed daytime café to a vibrant evening wine bar. The unpretentious, wood-paneled space features an open kitchen serving a menu centered around exceptional sourdough pizzas, fresh market salads, and comforting dishes like lasagna, all paired with a curated selection of low-intervention wines and classic cocktails. With its "no reservations" policy and welcoming atmosphere, it serves as an ideal drop-in spot for locals seeking simple luxury and great flavor seven days a week.
Au Coin is described as a warm, inviting spot with an open kitchen that creates a lively, homey atmosphere and a space that feels both cozy and stylish. Reviews praise the sourdough pizzas, the crust, and the butter trio, along with handmade breads, pastries, and the Madeleine dessert, all complemented by a thoughtful wine list and a design that pairs well with the food and drinks. The vibe is consistently highlighted as welcoming and convivial, with friendly, attentive staff and an atmosphere that suits both day and night. Service can be uneven at times, with occasional waits or seating confusion, but when it runs smoothly it feels generous and professional. Some menu notes point to a margarita pizza that was too acidic for some and smaller portions for the price, while others sing praises for the pesto kale pizza and other offerings, and vegetarian options are sometimes seen as limited. Overall, Au Coin is viewed as a standout new favorite for high quality, flavorful cooking at approachable prices, drawing crowds for pizza, brunch, and a lively yet intimate dining experience.
Les pizzas sont pas mal... pour le reste (entrées), les portions sont très très petites pour le prix & pas sûre que le jus d'orange plein de glace soit 100% maison non plus. Bref, mieux vaut s'en tenir aux pizzas ou y aller pour un café. Le cadre est sympa & les serveurs agréables.
Such a gem. We had the lasagna (best in Montreal), the squash pizza, & a green salad - everything was absolutely delicious. The service was warm & welcoming, & the space is absolutely beautiful. Can't wait to go back!
Quel plaisir de découvrir cette nouvelle adresse dans le mile-end! Ouvert le matin, le midi & le soir, ce restaurant a vraiment tout compris. On s'y rend en famille en journée pour déguster d'excellentes viennoiseries & contempler la rue fairmount à travers ces grandes fenêtres qui baignent l'espace d'une belle lumière naturelle ou en soirée ou l'ambiance est juste très cool & incarne bien la vibe du mile-end. La nourriture est aussi excellente (surtout la pizza!) & tout est préparé sur place sous vos yeux. Que dire finalement du service qui est des plus attentif. Merci !
