Review Summary

Cadence Café is widely recognized as a beautifully designed and aesthetically pleasing destination in Chinatown, often praised for its relaxing atmosphere, quality vinyl music, and Japanese-inspired interior. Many visitors enjoy the high-quality matcha, hojicha, and popular items like the shiopan and roll cakes, though opinions on food and drink consistency vary among patrons. While several guests find the service friendly, efficient, and welcoming, others have reported inconsistencies, including slower wait times, forgotten orders, and a perceived lack of warmth from the staff during busy periods. Despite mixed feedback regarding pricing and service speed, the cafe remains a popular spot for those looking to enjoy a slow-living experience or capture trendy photographs in a stylish environment.

Super ok is the best way I can describe this place. The spot is cute, very nice chill vibe. But the drinks & food are so incredibly over hyped. They're not bad by all means, but they're super ok is how I feel. I think social media made it seem to be incredibly good & unique. When in reality they make coffees & offer little sandwiches/bites. Won't be coming back. Staff was also super ok.

A new café that just opened in Chinatown, right next to Metro Place-d'Armes. The interior is a lovely blend of contemporary minimalism with a retro-industrial twist.

The drinks menu focuses on coffee & Japanese teas, alongside Japanese pastries like salt breads, sweet rolls, & cake rolls. We ordered the latte, hojicha latte, & the flan pudding. The drinks were refreshing, though the hojicha latte could have been a touch richer & creamier.

A nice addition to the area - a good spot to catch up with friends, study, or get some work done.

Cadence: Follow the rhythm

The screaming of the coffee grinder, the cacophony of niche electronic music, & the loud discussions at the next table about grand plans to change the world with AI.

The coffee is great, but it's too noisy.

Great new Coffee spot in the centre of Mont, close to Chinatown.

Very cute sister cafe to Fleurs & Cadeaux/Sans Soleil. Love the continued theme of Japanese menu items/decor & vinyl record appreciation. The space is beautifully furnished. I've been during the weekend & during the week during lunch & the cafe had different vibes but both times were really cool. Unsure if it's every weekend, but I went on a Sunday where they had a few crates of disco/hip hop vinyls for sale & I believe they had someone spinning vinyl to soundtrack the rainy Sunday.

The matcha latte is fantastic & an americano at $3.50 is an excellent price for this area of the city. Service is a bit slower than other coffee shops but this is certainly a place aimed to capture the slow living moments of life (sit down & enjoy company over a coffee & some food). Highly recommend if you enjoy coffee, good music, or even if you're looking to capture some trendy pictures.

Aesthetic & cute coffee shop. Really good matcha without sweetener as they use Hokusan like their other branch Osmo x Marusan, you can really taste the matcha powder's quality. Service is really fast as their matcha is premade in a squeeze bottle. Standard roll cake. Good spot for Insta pics, hanging out with a friend, & working or studying for an hour max (really busy & noisy during peak times, loud music as well).

Ordered a flat white & it was delicious! I haven't been able to find a coffee that smooth in a while. Definitely recommend if you are in the area. The staff is also super friendly ☺?
