Au Grain de Café appears as a cozy, well loved spot in Mont Tremblant village offering strong coffee, croissants, and reliable comfort foods like a croque monsieur and tasty soups. Reviewers praise the friendly, welcoming staff and the charming European vibe, making it a go to place for a quick sit and soak in village atmosphere. The cafe can get busy, especially in the morning, with lines forming and some service slowdowns noted when many orders come in; meanwhile, occasional menu gaps such as vegan options can disappoint some guests. While the coffee and baked goods earn frequent praise, a few drinks or experiences are described as less memorable, suggesting variability. Overall, Au Grain de Café is regarded as a Tremblant staple and a popular spot for coffee, lunch, and a relaxed break during village visits, with signature items like the croque monsieur standing out for many patrons.
Choix vegan pour les cafés grâce aux options de lait végétal ( soja, avoine...), petite restauration assez simple & rapide, il n'y a pas de choix vegan pour manger, c'est dommage. J'ai pris un bagel sans la crème & demandé de la confiture. La file à l'extérieur était assez longue mais c'était un long week-end de congé, le temps d'attente était correct plus ou moins. 10 minutes. Le personnel est sympathique & efficace & n'arrêtait pas de travailler derrière le comptoir. Dommage que le mixeur des smoothies fasse autant de bruit.
Nice & cozy cafe. The food is straightforward & prices are reasonable. The decor is amazing! The lattes are on point & definitely deliver for a morning rush. Morning maybe tough. There is only one worker, so there is a wait. However, the speed at which things get done is amazing! Overall, good place to have breakfast.
The grilled cheese can be improved along with the service unfortunately. The place is very cozy but I was disappointed they asked me to leave because I stayed there for a while reading my book (even though I kept consuming).

Love this little café!!! Here you can get some light breakfast items & great coffee & tea without feeling overcharged like some other establishments in Mont-Tremblant Village. We ended up there every day. I recommend this place because of the quality of the food & beverages for the price. This place has integrity. I wish other places followed their example. Relaxed ambiance, service with a smile, & only a 2-minute walk from the chairlift (Northside). P.S.: It's across from the big SAQ sign.
Great latte, but it was $9 for a 12oz which is a little over the top. I added flavour & almond milk, but it still felt a little expensive for the size. Staff were lovely & prepared the beverage quickly.

I went to Opening Day 2023 to support the hill. I walked around & went through the stores. I wanted to celebrate with a special hot chocolate on the Tremblant Hill, as I remembered as a child. The cafe was not the ski hill vibe you would expect from a world renowned ski hill. Not enough seating, asking families to share their table for single patrons. An interior designer would have a field day to renovate this exclusive space to accommodate patrons who spend quite a bit of money to ski & stay at the hill. The cafe as it presents itself with large & multiple plants, you would expect to see at your grandmas house, is well enough for a small town not a ski resort . Witnessed 15 people in 20 mins leaving because there was not enough seating. The bathroom needs updating & a deep cleaning. Food stored on the ground in a traffic walkway to the bathroom. This is 2023 why does the Alterra Mountain Company not take a look through their merchants to make sure they represent the vibe they are selling. I do apologize for the blunt comments. I travel & ski the world full time & Tremblant is where I learned to ski over 50 years ago, needless to say they have a special place in my heart. The cafe needs an updated ski theme & menu. The staff are overly friendly which in some cases means they are over compensating for inadequacies.
Beau café, super service, mais le café était imbuvable. On était 5 & on a tous fini par jeter nos boissons pour aller chez Starbucks... Payer 6$ un chocolat chaud & se rendre compte que c'est du Nesquick c'est un peu insultant. Dommage parce que l'ambiance était vraiment superbe.
The food was quite good, however they don’t allow computers. I had to work on many important things & only had my small phone to do so. Apparently they don’t allow computers because they don’t want clients to stay too long, but it’s contradictive with their book stand, encouraging people to read. Plus, we didn’t feel very welcome & the seats are not much comfortable. Anyway, I went to Starbucks & had my work done.
