Overall, reviews describe Bêden Càphê as a cozy, beautifully decorated, welcoming spot in Montreal with friendly, attentive staff and a calm, inviting atmosphere that suits a quiet coffee break or a casual meal with friends. The menu blends Vietnamese flavors with inventive twists and is noted for changes with the seasons, including crowd pleasers such as banh mi and a range of soups like pork char siu wonton, while the Vietnamese coffee selection, including egg coffee and iced coffee, is praised for balance and richness; drinks such as matcha, taro, hojicha lattes and bubble tea are also popular. The food and pastries receive high marks, from pâté chaud and imperial rolls to lotus biscoff waffles and tiramisu, and the space often features a warm, friendly vibe with occasional live music that enhances the ambiance. Decor and motifs invoke Vietnamese culture, creating a cozy, stylish vibe that makes it feel like a hidden gem with good value, and the staff, including the owner, are repeatedly singled out for kindness and helpfulness. The overall impression across reviews is a place to return to again and again to explore more of the menu and enjoy a welcoming, delicious experience.
C'est si bon !!! Je suis vraiment fan, & la gérante est vraiment super gentille. Le café est super cosy, bref un petit coin de paradis sur le plateau !
Omg, je suis en amour avec ce café. J'ai pris la soupe porc char siu & le café glacé vietnamien, & c'était PARFAIT. J'ai habité en Asie pendant un moment &, depuis mon retour à Montréal, c'est la première fois que je retrouve les saveurs authentiques & goûteuses qui me manquent tant. 10/10!
Ce café est excellent pour savourer un bon'bánh mì' (sandwich vietnamien) ou encore un savoureux pâté chaud (feuilleté vietnamien). Il faut, évidemment, commander le typique café vietnamien. Le service est courtois & professionnel.
Un bon café vietnamien à découvrir en plein coeur de Montréal.
BRAVO 👍.
The cafe is truly beautiful & inviting, with an aesthetically pleasing design. I particularly appreciate the Vietnamese fusion offerings, & the staff members are so welcoming. They have a continuously evolving menu, & the drinks are seasonally inspired.
J'adore ce café ! Je le recommande à 100%. Le café & les plats sont excellents (à goûter absolument les café vietnamien : egg coffee), l'ambiance est très apaisante avec le fond de musique. & le service est très agréables ;) J'y vais personnellement pour travailler c'est super !
I stopped by Bêden on Laurier Street ton a Monday morning. The place itself is cute, with a nice, cozy vibe, quiet for a Monday, which made it perfect for a calm coffee break.
I had a filtered coffee, which was quite good, smooth & well-balanced. While I was there, the lady behind the counter was baking something that wasn't exactly a bagel, but more like a soft dough filled with cheese & vegetables, eggplant, zucchini, mushrooms, & cheese. The smell was incredible, & the taste was even better.
Overall, it's a cute spot for a quiet coffee & a little homemade treat.
Kind, polite & attentive staff... the taro cappuccino was amazing... also enjoyed the fried rice but next time will try a waffle, ice cream & maple syrup autumn menu thingy.

I went the first time there in December for a cup of Vietnamese coffee & a tiramisu. As I really enjoyed the experience & I returned with a group of friends & I tried the best wonton soup of Montreal & some Vietnamese sweets. Last week, I tried a banh mi & it exceeded all my expectations. The owner & her staff are very nice & they are always ready to help you when one doesn't know the Vietnamese gastronomy (my case). I highly recommend this coffee shop!
