Review Summary

Café Alphabet has established itself as a premier destination in Montreal, beloved for its authentic Greek inspired coffee culture and exceptional hospitality. Visitors consistently praise the high quality of their signature Freddo beverages and expertly crafted matcha, noting that the velvety cold foam and rich espresso profiles create a truly standout experience. While the space is frequently busy and vibrant, which can sometimes lead to limited seating and a lively noise level, the welcoming atmosphere and the genuine passion of the owners make it a must visit location. The consistent attention to detail in their roasting process, paired with a stylish, community focused environment, ensures that patrons feel valued, whether they are stopping in for a quick drink or settling in for a comfortable work session.

Definitely worth the hype! Great Fredo Matcha. Just be prepared for long wait. Once you order, the drinks are ready quickly.

Great location. That is it.

When you're hyped this much about the matcha, you expect a drink that blows number 2 competition out of the water. This was a solid meh. Had to go to Dalamata next door to clean the palette. & we've had Matcha in Paris, Nice, Toronto & other large cities that is growing behind the matcha trend. We expected much more from Alphabet given the exposure online.

This is a $6.5 matcha at best.

Sorry! I hope you see this as a challenge to do better!

The pina colada matcha Freddo was the best matcha I've ever had, 9$ though, a little pricey

Tried the collagen matcha & banana matcha. So good! We stumbled upon this place & there was no wait. What a gem! Great service from all staff & baristas today. Very knowledgeable with recommendations that suited what we described our preferences were.

Place is trendy & very busy with people studying--we had to wait for a table to free up. We only came for their matcha freddo, which i already had once before & remembered liking it. This time around, it wasn't amazing & it also costed 8$ for a small cup of matcha with 50% light foam. I didnt find the drink sweet, nor the foam but the matcha was good quality. I guess i'd recommend for you to ask for sweetener in your matcha if u have a sweet tooth.

Nice staff & service.

The interior is a bit loud, but overall cozy. Be careful visiting in the summer, because it gets hot. I dont think they have AC in here.

The matcha was pretty good, but a bit watery.
