Café Alphabet est décrit comme un café du quartier vivant et chic, avec un excellent café et un programme de matcha remarquable, y compris le fameux freddo et une gamme de pâtisseries. L'ambiance est accueillante et énergique, en faisant une destination populaire dans le Mile End où les visiteurs se sentent comme chez eux, bien que le nombre de places puisse être limité et que les foules puissent être importantes, et l'espace peut être bruyant par moments. Le personnel est régulièrement salué pour un service chaleureux et attentif et des conseils utiles, et le café torréfie ses propres grains et propose des produits dérivés. Certains avis évoquent une focalisation sur les réseaux sociaux et l'affluence, donnant l'impression que l'expérience est guidée par le buzz plutôt que par la tranquillité. Dans l'ensemble, Café Alphabet est perçu comme établissant une norme élevée pour un café moderne de quartier à Montréal, avec beaucoup qui le considèrent comme un incontournable et un endroit où revenir pour d'excellentes boissons et une hospitalité.
Firstly I didn't plan to visit this cafe. As I'm walking out of the Bernie Beigne donut store across the street I noticed this lovely cafe packed to the gills so much so that there was steam on the windows. Thanks to having fresh donuts in my possession I thought that I should check this place out as it seems "cool" & if I'm inspired, why not marry a good cup of "Joe" to my donuts - right So we got in line & we were served by Tony (an owner) & he was really cool. Also very patient. Why you ask? Because I don't know all the "cafe lingo" & basically asked for a decaf cappuccino & a decaf cup of coffee with two cream & a sweetener. This had to be explained to me how a simple cup of decaf coffee would be prepared - I'm like "as long as it's coffee in a cup I do t care how are what you do" & with a friend warm smile it was done. As we waiting to be served our coffees to the right where the other partner manages the outbound side of the business - he too was super friendly & warm & also speaks Greek too! Interior is clean, cosy, intimate, chic, & smells divine. All you want to do is find a cosy spot & drink you coffee & & drink more coffees & just relax in this busy happening little gem of a place to relax & enjoy an amazing selection brand they use to make super premium coffee. Yes, the quality of their beans have to be at the level of a European cafe. The nose was clean & crisp with perfect balance. Just smelling the coffee puts a smile on my face. But drinking this coffee is something special. I highly recommend your first sip to be a calm mindful one. Why? You need to give a little respect to the craft. You deserve the pleasure enjoy all aspects of their high quality coffee & just relax. Don't rush this. Savour the experience as this is not Tim Horton, Starbucks, second cup etc - this is what coffee should be in this city. This is also a great place for a first or any date for that matter. & don't be shy, the owners are young & outgoing friendly down to earth people who love to hear (good or bad - not that this happens lol) feedback from their clients as their focus is that the customer experience is like no other.

Totally worth the hype! Matcha Freddo with Christmas special peppermint dust, made the visit more special. Came alone but was a total vibe! I would recommend it! A little busy cafe.
I visited Café Alphbet after seeing all the TikTok hype, & it definitely drew a crowd! I asked the barista for a suggestion & went with the holiday Greek coffee with a cream topping-it was like dessert in a cup & possibly a little to sweet for coffee. My boyfriend opted for the hot chocolate with the same cream topping & really enjoyed his as well. While it was a bit pricey & not the best coffee I had in Montréal, it was still delicious & worth trying. Be prepared to wait in line, though-the place is always busy. The friendly & welcoming staff made the experience even better!
Seul café du coin qui est ouvert à 7:00 le matin, j'adore. Sauf que le café filtre goûte étrange, je pensais que c'était le lait qui avait expiré, mais c'est vraiment le café qui goûte & sent le lait caillé. J'en ai discuté avec d'autres personnes & je ne suis pas la seule à penser cela.
Tried the viral Freddie cap & it was good- very strong coffee taste. Would come back to try their matcha version! Keep in mind that it is a somewhat small & tightly packed cafe ( visited on a Sunday morning )

Best cafe in Montreal hands down! We went with all our kids & friends - Best customer service. The owners even gave our kids paper to color on with crayons. We'll be back!
Tried Café Alphabet for the first time today (& clearly not the last), it was an amazing experience. I loved everything about this place honestly, I HIGHLY recommend the chai latte with pumpkin spice, it is clearly the best one I ever had in my life, thank you very much 🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷
I'm new to the city & still exploring, but the drinks at this café have truly captured my taste buds! I stumbled upon it while searching for the best coffee shops in Montreal, & since it was in a neighborhood I hadn't visited yet, I thought, "Why not?" Little did I know that I would return for their Freddo Matcha, & then I discovered their specialty drink, the Greek Freddo Cappuccino, which I also loved & became my second favorite. Since it's not super close to me, I usually spend a few hours there working & enjoying my drinks. I get both drinks every time I am there & a fresh pastry on the side. Beyond the amazing drinks & pastries, the warm atmosphere really draws you in. The staff are incredibly friendly as well as the owners, remembering your name & favorite drink, making you feel like part of the community. I usually try every place once, maximum twice, & then move on to discover new spots, but I can't resist coming back here. The taste of their drinks is something I look forward to every time, & since I am still a bit homesick, this place makes me feel welcomed & at ease. They consistently deliver great quality & appreciate all their customers. Thank you, Alphabet!
Currently indulging in Alphabet's signature Freddo Cappuccino-it's their take on the traditional Greek iced coffee, prepared with quality & substance, & served with a unique twist. Honestly, it's so fancy I feel like I should be on a yacht in Santorini. But hey, Montreal café will do! ☕️🇬🇷 #FreddoCappuccino #CoffeeSnob #LivingTheCaffeinatedDream

Great vibe, nice people, tasty coffee 👌🏻👌🏻 Thanks Tony, Tom, Leo-Kamal & others (sorry if I write incorrect your name's spelling 😊). Guys! do not miss Café Alphabet ☕️🍩☕️
We had soo much fun at the café, everyone soo nice the service was extremely friendly & humble & made our trip to montreal memorable. The coffee was yumm I wish they were in Toronto as well it would've been our go to café for sure.
This place was at the top of my list to visit on my Montreal itinerary, & it did not disappoint! The server was very attentive & sweet, as were the workers (one of the co-owners was working, & made my drink, he had the most charming energy & morale; & the server knew sign language!). That is top customer service! The drink was very good, the vibe was good, & they create a "be present" charm to their cafe, to get people to engage with each other. I will definitely be coming back! I wish they do more unique drink concoctions like the Pink Drink, year round!
I visited Café Alphabet for the first time yesterday after seeing it all over social media, & I WILL DEFINITELY BE COMING BACK! I tried the matcha, even though I'm not usually a fan, & IT WAS AMAZING. But what truly sets Alphabet apart isn't just the incredible drinks; it's the people. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with warm smiles & a genuine sense of hospitality. They take the time to make sure every cup is perfect, & you can tell they really care about & enjoy what they do. The aesthetic inside is stunning, & between their unique coffee blends & trendy merch, I honestly felt like I had been transported to a coffee shop in Greece! If you're looking for a coffee shop with amazing drinks & even better vibes, you absolutely need to visit Alphabet. You won't be disappointed!
