Overall, Café Capybara is described as a cute, capybara themed cafe with a warm, family friendly vibe, a spacious back area for DIY crafts and workshops, and a diverse drinks menu that includes matcha varieties, guava flavors, pistachio coffee and other playful creations, with reviewers appreciating the ambience, the plushy merchandise, and the chance to design or make crafts; the place is often praised for friendly service and charm, though some note higher prices for craft supplies, limited seating, or longer waits when crowded, and occasional sweetness or quality swings in drinks; for many, it is a must visit especially for capybara lovers and kids, with reservations recommended for workshops and a reminder to plan ahead.
There are only 2 tables available, most of the drinks on the menu are unavailable. Low energy & unwelcoming service. Pretty contradictory withe the whole marketing of this place. The drinks are correct but overpriced.
Had a great first impression of this café yesterday afternoon!
I tried the matcha à la goyave (spent around 7-8 dollars) which was a first for me, & it did not disappoint. My friend tried the matcha crème brûlée. They offer a wide variety of drinks, some of them I have never heard before, & everything on the menu looked worth trying, I would definitely go back to try the rest.
The space is cute, you can buy plushies there & I think there are also DIY activities/workshops available in the back, but I'm not sure if it's a walk-in or you need to reserve.
The coffee shop is located right in the heart of downtown, very close to Concordia.
Is it worth a visit? Yes
Would I go back? Yes⭐?⭐?⭐?⭐?⭐?
The coffee was a little bit sweet. Maybe they should add more coffee shot because I taste more the cream than the coffee. So I don't know if I was paying for the creme brûlée or the coffee?
Les breuvages sont bons. Mais le prix des articles pour faire des créations est vraiment trop chers, c'est exagéré.un étui à crayons pour 39$! & pas de la grande qualité.
The drinks are good. But the prices for craft supplies are way too high, it's outrageous. A pencil case for $39! & not even high quality.
Accueil très froid, les employés ne prêtent aucune attention aux enfants, peu de choix sur la carte, pas de place pour s'asseoir (2 petites tables) & prix trop élevés. Bref, 0 expérience pour mes 3 enfants, donc aucun intéret.
