The baristas were very helpful in finding me a table & suggesting tea blends.
The place was extremely busy & quite loud. Since they do take reservations, I strongly suggest making one if you do not want to have to wait standing in a drafty doorway 😉

Adorable & classic artistic Persain decorations & warm cozy vibes, full of young people, super popular on weekends, especially today I just went there. Service could be delayed due to high demand of customers, but staffs are very responsive & friendly. They are extremely calm & cool,genteelly showed the generosity when a customer accidentally broke a glass lamp next to the window. You can see this is the warmth from Persain people. Coffee & rice cake were fantastic, the rice cake was combined with rose water inside, very fresh. Lentil soup was not to my likings because there's a herb inside I didn't like much but it's freshly & well-made. Price is fair. What amazes me the most was their collection of meaningful books along the bar seats. I really enjoyed the vibes here. Last but not least, pray for Iran & Iranian people, for love & peace you all deserve.

As other comments have said, the café has a good vibe & products are of good quality. However, prices are very expensive for what it is (e.g., the iranian breakfast is $16 or so when there's 2 slices of cheese, some honey & a few slices of bread & veggies, & cappucino is $7). You can't use laptops on all tables so ask your waiter first!

Superbe découverte! Les breuvages & la nourriture sont à la fois magnifiques & réconfortants. L'omelette de montagne est à tomber parterre. Je recommande fortement d'essayer cette immersion dans la cuisine perse.

I got the mocha & a roast beef sandwich with no tomatoes & it was absolutely delicious. The atmosphere is so chic & very cozy. I love the vase by the ordering counter & I want to take it home but I cannot 😔 but it's a very beautiful place 10/10 recommend!!!!

Highly recommend breakfast at Aunja! I had the vegetable omelette with cheese (extra charge) & it was delicious. My first time trying Iranian bread & it did not disappoint. The flat white was top notch as well. I gave four stars because the service was slow, but that's because they were absolutely slammed (& I see why!).

We were visiting for a comedy show, spending 4 days in Montreal & had the absolutely most wonderful breakfast here.

Amazing food, wonderful people & the cutest little shop.

I wish they were closer to home!!!

Go here. Have the breakfast & start your day with real food energy! 💙

À chaque fois que j'en ai l'occasion, je m'arrête à ce café & j'y amène une amie. C'est toujours une belle expérience. L'endroit est cosy & le service est souriant. On y découvre une cuisine qu'on ne retrouve pas partout & on voyage à chaque plat.

Situé près du musée, je le recommande autant avant qu'après votre visite, en été comme en hiver.

This café has such a warm, cozy, cultural, & colorful vibe. It's perfect for anyone who loves studying, working, or reading in cafés. The space is very aesthetically pleasing & instantly makes you feel comfortable. The food is healthy, though a bit on the expensive side.
I had one of their teas (Persian rose, orange blossom, orange peel, lemon verbena, & honey) & honestly, it relaxed me so much that I had to go back home just to sleep (it made so sleepy). It was incredibly calming & soothing (I would recommend taking it around your sleep time). I'd definitely go back just for that tea.
