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!

Love the place! I brought a turntable to troubleshoot why i wasnt getting sound on one side & the owner helped me free of charge to spot that the problem came from the cartridge i was using.
I had already brought my turntables for some maintenance & repair & the service was excellent. They became my go to in Montréal either in st hubert or st henri

Cantinova Cafe is such a nice spot. Kaz the owner is a gracious host & always makes you feel welcome. The coffee is great & the vibe is relaxed & friendly.

It's also super convenient as a dropoff point for Audiophonie who did an amazing job fixing my Technics 1200. Made the whole process really easy.

Definitely recommend both the cafe & the repair shop.

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.
