Café Alphabet is widely praised as a welcoming, stylish spot with top notch coffee and a diverse menu of Freddo, matcha, and baked goods. The vibe is warm, cozy, modern with a Greek inspired touch, and the space feels both instagrammable and comfortable for reading, working, or socializing. The staff are repeatedly described as friendly, attentive, and generous, creating a strong sense of community and hospitality. While drinks and pastries earn high marks, some reviewers note occasional misses like overly sweet matcha, foam that lacks fullness, or crowds that make seating and pacing rough. There are comments about price being a bit high but fair given quality, and some feedback about neighborhood impact and the need for clearer crowd control. The Freddo and matcha beverages are signature items with particular praise for the creamy foam and smooth textures, and pastries like carrot cake and spanakopita are highlighted. Overall Café Alphabet is described as a standout and a must visit for coffee lovers, with many eager to return and some hoping for broader recognition.
le meilleur café à montréal! ça fait déjà un an que je vais au café alphabet, & je ne suis jamais déçue. les baristas sont toujours souriants & leurs cafés sont excellents. mention spécial au matcha freddo, c'est juste incroyable
Best freddo espresso I've ever had, this place never disappoints! It's a little escape back home to Greece. Thank you for bringing the Greek coffee culture to Montreal!!
Cute looking cafe. Tried the matcha freddo, latte freddo & some pastries. Freddo was just okay, looked cute but doesn't stay cute for long. Matcha flavor was very mild & too sugary. Latte freddo was kind of a disappointment, didn't taste all that good. Croissant was alright.

I tried the freddo cappuccino & it looked amazing but the taste was just not there. The espresso was terrible. So disappointing because service is top notch & the place is cool
Wow !! I've never had a Freddo Cappuccino before & let me tell you that it will not be the last time! The coffee was everything I imagined, it was so decadent. The baristas were extremely nice. When we ordered he offered to make our coffee a bit sweeter which was such a good decision. Also, when I came to pick up the coffee he told me to come up to the counter so that I could see him put the frothed cold milk & he did not mind me filming the process. It's great to go to a coffee shop or even a restaurant & see that the people working there are passionate about what they're doing & always in a good mood. I loved how accessible the owners were, one of them came up to us just to talk when we were outside which was really nice. In general, the atmosphere was very lively & relaxed at the same time, the choice of music with the background noise of people outside enjoying the sun was perfect. Would 110% come back & try the Freddo Matcha.
The freddo culture is just so real. Best Greek coffee I've ever tasted & that freddo top is perfection. Great vibes, always want to go back on a sunny day, grab my coffee & chill. Absolutely amazing vibes
I've been a few times & it's always been popular but ever since they went viral on TikTok it's even busier!! I would avoid weekends bc of that! Decent coffee, cute spot with outdoor seating. I finally tried their freddos (the milk foam), I got the matcha & my friend had the coffee version. They definitely know what they're doing & I love how they give a lil show & make sure you have time to capture them capping the drink with the milk foam! When I had my first sip, it was overwhelmingly sweet but it did balance out after I mixed the entire drink. & then it was overly cream-tasting (which i kinda expected) but I don't recommend if you're lactose intolerant like I am. Still worth checking out if you're in the city!
very nice & cozy cafe! the freddo is pretty good, love the vibe & the owner's friendliness!! we're all from toronto & saw this place on tiktok so decided to come check it out :) would definitely come back if I have a chance 💕
