So been here nearly six weeks. Beardlington was the first cafe i tried. I have tried others since. For me the biggest difference is the people. Im here twice a day & never fails to get a big a smile from the ladies behind the counter. Everyone is friendly, happy & awesome. The service i get is top notch. Also i met a couple of the owners, the boys are right on. They treat you family in there. I mean sure the lattes are fire, but its the owners & staff that keep me going back. Thanks ladies for putting up with my crap every morning just know i appreciate each & every one of you for always starting my day off on the right foot.

I been here everyday for the last 7 days & probably for the rest of my time in Montreal. Staying in ville emard, this has been the first & only place I've tried in the area. The ladies working are always super nice & the latte is nice & strong
Coffee isn't my taste (a bit overextracted) but the specialty lattes are kind of fun. The space is huge, with ample seating & a cozy atmosphere. Counter service could use a more guided approach for those looking for a walk-in haircut. But otherwise friendly.
Chicken sandwich is excellent!

service top notch, excellent café & croissant & biscottis, parfait pour m'y poser quelques temps avec un laptop ou pour prendre un cappuccino lait d'avoine au passage
Nice little spot on Monk. Chill vibe, good coffee, & friendly service. The place has a cool aesthetic, & the barbershop concept makes it stand out. Solid go-to if you want a relaxed café.
My favorite cafe in Montreal! It's a great spot to read, work or catch up with a friend. They have amazing matcha drinks, my favourite so far is the matcha lavender honey latte. The food is great too, i highly recommend 🍵🥐
Coup de coeur!! Le café est spacieux, super stylé, bien décoré. Beaucoup de goût, surtout pour les cadres photos. Le service & top & les sandwiches & cafés délicieux. En plus prix sont vraiment plus bas que ceux des cafés de la région. Je garde en tête!

Cool cafe in Ville Emard, but not a fan of Barista brand coffee. Everytime a cafe uses those bans the coffee has a strong burnt smokey taste. They should try some independent brands roaster right around the corner at the canadian roasting society.
Super belle endroit! Le café était excellent! Nous avons eu la chance de pouvoir profiter du café pour un événement privé & le service était impeccable! Merci à toute l'équipe. une belle adresse à ne pas manquer si vous êtes de passage dans Ville Emard. Mention spéciale pour Gabby!
One of my favorite cafes in Montreal. The owner is so kind & the staff is always very quick & helpful. I found this place very randomly one day, & I have been back minimally once a month. I got many people addicted to their ube matcha (which I am THRILLED) they brought back. I have always been extremely productive when I go to do work. 10/10 recommend!

Je vais souvent à pieds en été . Leur menu de café d'été est excellent , spécialement avec la pistaches ! Spacieux , propre, pas beaucoup de monde, confortable. Un de mes endroits préférés.
I had an amazing experience at Beardlington Café! ✂?💈 The atmosphere is stylish & welcoming. Presdent is a excellent barber & friendly. I'm super satisfied with the result! 🔥🙌 Highly recommend! 💯
This great café has a very pleasant design & ambiance, very conducive to reading or working. Given their original Macha selection, I asked them for something unusual, a chocolate Macha. They kindly accepted & the result was just amazing, a nice combination of the two tastes, truly well balanced. Thank you!

On m'a refusé l'accès en salle avec un chien Mira en formation. C'est leur droit tant qu'un chien n'est pas officiellement en service, mais c'est quand même extrêmement rare pour être souligné. Heureusement que la majorité des cafés/restaurants acceptent les chiens Mira, sinon il y en aurait peu qui réussirait leur formation.
Dropped into Beardlington Café yesterday to catch up with a friend & sneak in some work. It's the kind of place that makes you want to extend your'quick coffee' into a whole afternoon.
The space is surprisingly spacious (rare in Montreal cafés), with a cool, relaxed vibe that makes you feel instantly settled. Their coffee is legit great. No burnt aftertaste, no weird bitterness, just smooth, balanced, & exactly what you need to get into focus mode.
But the real show-stopper is the chocolatine.
Oh. My. God.
Rich, buttery, flaky perfection. The kind you take a bite of & immediately regret not ordering two.
If you're looking for a spot to work, meet someone, or romanticize your life with a pastry, this place is definitely worth a stop.
Such a hidden gem! The food here is super fresh & full of flavor - every dish looks as good as it tastes 😍 The café itself is so aesthetic & cozy, with plenty of space to work or study comfortably. Perfect spot to spend a few hours with your laptop & a good coffee ☕?✨
& the coolest part? They even have a barbershop inside! 💈 So you can grab a bite, get some work done, & a fresh cut all in one place. Honestly, the vibes are immaculate.
Je recommande fortement. Le personnel est très accueillant & je suis bien satisfait de ma coupe de cheveux. Deo est un excellent coiffeur & il est fort sympathique. De plus, on vous offre un café avec la coupe. C'est très apprécié.
