this cafe has an excellent atmosphere for socializing or reading over a cup of coffee. they do not serve'american style' coffee with multiple sizes or syrups; instead they serve traditional Italian style cappuccini & lattes as well as cocktails & some food. we had an iced Italian coffee, a vermouth spritz (don't miss it - the vermouth spritz was one of the best I've ever had), a pistachio doughnut, & a vegetarian panini. they have a nice variety of sandwiches & pastries, including some vegetarian options.

I visited your establishment on Monday, while visiting Montreal.
Your pistachio croissant was 11/10, so light & flaky. Your coffee was great too! Can't wait to come back!!
