Great coffee, service & hospitality. The owner Kaz, is generous & welcoming to all his customers. As soon as you step in, you can hear carefully curated music that add soul to the neighborhood. My favorite part is the collection of records all over the store, this place is awesome!

10's across the board! I recently was in Montreal (Saint Henri area) for two weeks attending the Gradient Academy next door. Living in NYC I thought we had all the milks possible but honestly this 3% milk phenomenon blows NY cappuccinos away. I thoroughly enjoyed my daily dose of caffeine while listening to amazing records & absorbing all that Cafe Cantinova + Montreal has to offer.

The owner is cool, pleasant with a good vibe. Music is fire with selection of records to buy, it's real unique. & of course the hot drinks & pastry are great with the service.

De passage pour un petit espresso allongé, je ne pouvais qu'apprécier ce petit décor & service agréable . Classique, industriel & avec bien des lecteurs de vinyles & good music. /// On my journey to savor a delightful espresso, I cherish this intimate space with its exceptional service. The blend of classic & industrial style, along with a few vinyl records, creates an inspiring atmosphere.

I found this cafe by sheer luck on a Sunday, while looking for a cafe to get some work done. The atmosphere was cozy. There was a bunch of Record players & speakers, with great background music playing. I was able to get work done. Kaz was very welcoming & is a knowledgeable audiophile. He guided me in the purchase of my first record player & set of speakers. This local business a little gem.
