Coffee is really great here & the staff are always kind & welcoming.
However as someone who lives in the neighbourhood & up the street I am so frustrated that this business doesn't seem to respect their neighbours or care enough to keep the crowds within their property lines. People spill out into the streets & block the sidewalk & bike path at almost all hours of the day. I've noticed that other popular businesses in the area will have signs to remind customers to stay within particular limits to respect the neighbourhood but Alphabet, at least as of yet, has not done anything like that. I, & I'm sure other people in the neighbourhood, would be so grateful to see some effort to keep patrons in the business & not blocking the road, side walk & bike path, so that we can live more harmoniously with this cafe as a community.
Edit - I see you've updated your reply - that sign is literally barely noticeable, tiny & jammed into a corner that no one is going to see unless they are really looking for it. If you want myself & others to respect this business then make legitimate attempts to respect us! A tiny sign is not a peace offering. I've been reading reviews & see the very negative & dismissive way you respond to constructive criticisms & real concerns. It's very disappointing & does not give credence that you actually care about my review. We BOTH have to earn respect. I updated my review because this business has done nothing to reflect on it genuinely & take it seriously.

Five stars all around. The coffee was excellent, & I had a plain croissant that was wonderfully flaky & buttery. Coffee is served in very chic cups, making the experience even more enjoyable.

Good espresso served hot as it should be. Very crowded. I would recommend if you're in the area & want a quick espresso but this place is not suitable for meeting up with people due to the crowds. There is seating but staff encourage you to move along to make way for others

Un lieu où on se sent bien. Un esprit de communauté. On peut discuter facilement avec l'équipe, les clients. Chaleureux, belle ambiance & simplicité.

⭐?⭐?⭐?⭐?⭐? Amazing Spot!
I absolutely love this coffee shop. Their matcha & coffee are both incredible, super smooth, rich, & consistent every time. The service is amazing & the staff is very attentive & friendly. I also love that they sell their own coffee beans & matcha powder, so you can bring the same great flavor home. The vibe is cozy, everything is fresh, & it has quickly become one of my favorite places!

Alphabet Café is one of those places you stumble upon & instantly want to tell everyone about. Located on a cozy corner in Montreal, their iconic freddo coffee & matcha freddo coffee are truly worth the hype, with that silky foam & the unique flavor that has everyone talking. I also tried one of their other specialty coffees & it was absolutely delicious.
The vibe inside is calm, welcoming, & perfect for sitting down to enjoy something sweet. Their desserts are amazing - especially the carrot cake, which is moist, flavorful, & easily one of the best I've had in a while.
One of the things I loved most is that Alphabet Café isn't just a place to grab a drink; it's an experience. You can try different coffee varieties, & they also sell coffee beans, T-shirts, & other merch.
Overall, a must-visit spot if you're in the area & want great coffee & great vibes.

☕✨ Alphabet Café in Montreal is a gem!
I felt so welcomed & the service was excellent. The team there is super friendly, giving out nothing but good vibes. They genuinely seem like really nice people! 😄💙
Since I'm a tea person more than a coffee one, they suggested a chai latte & explained it could be a bit spicy because of the ginger. I love ginger, but my taste buds are a little crazy 😅, so I asked them to go easy on the spice. They even offered cinnamon on top-& the result? Hands down the best drink I've had at any café! 🫖✨
I really wish I could go back, but with my flight in a few days & the STM strike, navigating Montreal is tricky 😢. Till next time! 💕
