stopped by this café today & had a wonderful experience. The atmosphere was warm & welcoming, the live music created a great vibe, & the coffee was absolutely delicious.
If you're on your own & looking for a place that helps you feel connected rather than alone, this is a fantastic spot. One of the highlights of my visit was chatting with Kaz. He has a genuinely friendly & engaging personality that makes you feel like you're catching up with an old friend.
Thank you for the great vibe, the amazing live music, & the excellent coffee. I'll definitely be back! ☕🎶✨

We ordered cortado with oat milk. The espresso was beautiful. The cortado was served in a gorgeous clay cup. The soundscape included music playing with a sprawled out sofa seating space on one side & long bench available in the other end of the room. Overall, the cafe with its focus on sound system & equipment at first glance seems too unassuming for a cafe space. It turned out to be a great Saturday find.

Super cool café/ lounge pour écouter & shopper des disques vinyles, faire réparer sa table tournante, acheter du matos audiophonique vintage, etc. Kaz, le propriétaire est ultra sympathique connaît tous les secrets ( ou presque ! ) en matière d'audiophonie...
L'endroit est tellement cool que les musiciens adorent y faire des jams... & Kaz y permet aussi certains autres événements de musique & culturel...
À voir, & à passer pour prendre un café ou pour participer à un événement ...

Amazing cafe with an incredible vibe. The space is beautifully designed, relaxed, & instantly makes you want to stay a while. The atmosphere alone sets this place apart. The staff were welcoming, friendly, & attentive, making the experience feel easy & enjoyable from start to finish. You can tell a lot of care has gone into both the look of the cafe & the way customers are treated. Definitely a spot worth visiting again.

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.
