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.
As someone who usually isn't a fan of matcha, I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed the matcha at this coffee shop. Additionally, their pastries were absolutely delicious-fresh & full of flavor. This place has definitely won me over!
Le Café Alphabet est doté d'une ambiance très agréable. Latte avoine & espresso glacé délicieux. Le local est décoré avec soin, & l'espace terrasse extérieur vraiment original. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

My boyfriend & I had the best experience at café Alphabet, we live in Toronto & come to Montreal to visit family & try new places, I was very much happy about the atmosphere & service & attitudes. Everyone was enjoying the experience & how friendly staff was & I being a Greek , was very happy that I can get a taste of home in this amazing café. FREDO MATCHA was delicious & refreshing. Definitely added to the list to keep coming back to every year 👌
Went yesterday. Music was a little bit too loud, a little hard to make conversations. They focus a lot on their relationship with their clients, they socialize with every client that comes inside. I find it smart. The cookies or « Brookie » are so good, best one I've had in a while. Their fredo drinks are really good, but if you don't like the taste of strong coffee taste ask for more creamer & sugar, coz it is strong. I appreciate the fact that they don't use paper straws because they become soggy so easily , I think they use sugarcane straws. the place is clean & pretty.
Excellent matcha & & un bon latté (autant glacé ou chaud !) Tout le monde qui travaille là est super gentil.le.s. Le seul hic (plus ou moins, victime de son succès), c'est que le café est presque toujours plein, à l'intérieur comme à l'extérieur. Toujours possible de le prendre pour emporter & il arrive qu'il y ait de la place pour se poser si vous êtes chanceux.euses. L'ambiance & la déco, sinon, est vraiment super.
They offer a great selection of coffee.. The decor is stylish, creating a warm & inviting environment. Ideal for both solo visits & catching up with friends.
I came here after seeing this cafe blow up on tik tok. Honestly, I don't think I will be coming back. The beans used are not my favourite, a bit more of an acidic/zesty taste which I am not the biggest fan of. We also took two scones, & both were alright. I don't think these are made in house. That being said, the spot is cute, & the barista was nice.
Disclaimer : So you know, 4 stars is usually my top score.. 5 is perfection & i give it rarely I like the place. It's in the batch of new coffeeshops in the neighborhood, but they managed to create a great ambiance/vibe from the getgo. The coffee is great (3rd wave) & consistent accross barristas.

The cafe vibe is very energetic & fun. It is quite crowded & queue a bit long. The barista is very entertaining. The coffee is nice, i tried ice latte. But another one is a bit too sweet FOR ME. Overall is cool.
