Les avis sur Cafe Aunja convergent pour décrire une adresse chaleureuse et intime, avec un décor persan raffiné et une ambiance cosy propice à la détente, à la lecture ou au travail. La carte offre une belle variété de plats du petit déjeuner au dessert, des sandwichs généreux, des desserts gourmands et des boissons signatures comme le Persian Fog et le London Fog, ainsi que des pâtisseries au goût ravissant. Le lieu est souvent décrit comme un joyau caché, très apprécié mais aussi très fréquenté, ce qui peut le rendre bruyant et difficile pour trouver une place lors des apres midi et des fins de semaine; la réservation est recommandée. Le service est généralement chaleureux et attentionné, mais peut être lent pendant les périodes d affluence et parfois décevant lorsque le flux de clients est élevé. Les prix sont parfois jugés élevés pour ce qui est offert, mais la qualité des préparations, la fraîcheur des ingrédients et l ambiance justifient souvent le coût. Cafe Aunja est une destination prisée pour découvrir une cuisine persane moderne et des boissons et gâteaux uniques, et il est conseillé d arriver tôt ou de réserver pour profiter pleinement de l experience.
I visited this cafe on two occasions since it is considered a very popular cafe & eatery within walking distance of my hostel.
When you walk in, the atmosphere is both cozy & romantic with its moody lighting & vintage furniture.
I've tried their highly coveted Persian London fog & saffron cake & falafel sandwich. While the falafel was made fresh, the flavors were unfortunately lacking & dry that I finished more than half my beverage to help wash it down before finishing my sandwich. The saffron cake was sweet & 1-dimensional & the London fog tasted nothing more than sweetened milk.
One of the best cafes in Montreal! The food & drinks here are always amazing - the coucou, cake with rose water, & Persian fog are some of the best things I've ever had. The vibes are immaculate, it's a super cosy spot. The only issue is that it's always full (fair enough), so I wouldn't recommend it for studying or working.

Several vegetarian & vegan options, which you hardly find in a Persian cafe/ restaurant. I had the kuku sibzamini, which is one of my favourites of our cuisine. They were definitely different than my mom's but really good. If your mom does them like small little kottles & not so mushy inside, you will find something different here, but still very delicious. Maybe it's also a regional thing I don't know enough about since I was born & raised outside of Iran.
They also have kuku sabzi & some other kukus which they serve on Iranian bread. You will also find shole zard & Persian drinks.
The service is also super friendly & nice to speak to. The cafe itself is very comfy. I wish there were more places like this which represent our culture, & do not only specialise in a pile of rice with kabob.
I had a very nice experience & would definitely come often if I lived here.
Cozy nice cafe, local gem, the Persian Fog would be amazing if it wouldn't be served so scorching hot, have to wait for long time to cool it down. The drinks should be served with drinkable temperature, it is always possible to balance boiling water with a cold one after brewing a tea.

Easily my favourite cafe in Montreal. Lovely ambiance for a date or meeting friends, & great for studying or reading as well. Food & drinks are perfect. Thanks Cafe Aunja!
Quaint cafe with good Persian food. We had our breakfast here & thoroughly enjoyed the breakfast sets - full breakfast which came with lentil soup & mountain omelette. The Iranian bread that came with the sets were really good. Great service from the team as well!
Cafe aunja offers a very delicate & elegant Persian-inspired environment. It's a perfect place for afternoon tea. I tried their specialty tea - Persian Fragrance. An amazing combination of different flowers, a bit sourness from the lime, & a bit sweetness from honey. Highly recommended!

I came to the cafe with my little daughter, how much I enjoyed & it reminded me of my memories in Iran, wonderful cake & tea, I am very excited to come again. Highly recommend everyone to try this beautiful cafe.😊
This café has a very unique atmosphere. I love having London Fog here, it tastes really great! It has a lavender taste to it which is quite unique too.
My first time in Montreal didn't go exactly as planned-my girlfriend (she's from Toronto) & I (from Vermont) were hoping to spend most of our time exploring Old Montreal, but the weather had other ideas. So we pivoted, looking for a cozy café where we could stay warm, write, & enjoy good food, & that's how we found Café Aunja.
From the moment we walked in, it felt like something special. Our visit ended up being so memorable & romantic that we now think of it as'our' place.
The seating is abundant, & while the lighting leans dim, it's adjustable, which makes it ideal whether you're writing, chatting, or just people-watching with a cup in hand. The staff are warm & extremely welcoming, & as someone who's been a barista for 15 years, I can honestly say the drinks & food were made with real care. You can taste the pride in every detail-from presentation to flavor.
Café Aunja has Iranian roots, & it was my first time trying items like the Kereshmeh & Nargoun smoothies, both of which were bright, fruity, & refreshing. I also had a slice of their blueberry cake, which looked beautiful & tasted even better. On the more traditional side, I tried their moka latte, while my girlfriend went for their floral & herb-packed teas, which were as pretty as they were flavorful.
We ended up coming back two more times during our trip to write & relax, & I actually started my next novel there. She left equally inspired. Even if we stay in a different part of the city next time, we've already agreed: we're coming back to Café Aunja.
It's not just a café-it's a creative sanctuary, a cozy escape from the weather, & now, a cherished part of our story.
Très bonne expérience au café Aunja. Les ordinateurs ne sont pas permis, ce qui donne une ambiance très chaleureuse, els gens discutent, ça fait du bien. Décor, service & nourriture au top !
Such a lovely cafe. The space is so warm & welcoming - perfect for a cold, grey day. I had a breakfast & a Persian Fog (so delicious!) & spent some time reading & enjoying.
Amazing cafe with lots of coffee & teas to choose from. The food was delicious & offered a variety. Very popular place so it gets busy quick but well worth the wait. Not a big place so it gets packed inside. Staff was very friendly & helpful.
This cafe is just the best. It's got this chic middle eastern vibe going on which works perfect with the ambience. The food is fresh, although it's just sandwiches amongst solid food & rest are all drinks which are great too. They are generous with the amount & prices are reasonable too.
I vividly enjoyed my time there, especially coz of the atmosphere.
