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.
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

Such a lovely café! The atmosphere is cozy & charming, with great coffee & wonderful service. It's the perfect spot to relax & enjoy a peaceful moment.Highly recommend!🥰
Super café créatif aux couleurs des capybaras. Les cafés viennois & chocolats chauds sont très bons !
On a fait une coque d'iPhone & une étiquette pour la valise dans le Tututuspace (espace créatif à l'arrière). Le service est très bon ! Pensez à réserver votre rdv à l'avance car il y a beaucoup de monde en fin de semaine.

We came here to partake in the workshop in the back, unaware of this cafe being in the same store. Tried the pomme Verde latte. The drink itself was much better than I expected, I would love to come back & try more flavours!
