Review Summary

Café Capybara has garnered a reputation as a charming and unique destination, widely celebrated for its cozy, capybara themed atmosphere that appeals to fans of the animal and those seeking a quirky aesthetic. Many visitors praise the wide selection of creative, flavorful drinks and the presence of adorable merchandise, often highlighting the added value of the on site DIY craft workshops as a major highlight. While the majority of guests appreciate the friendly and accommodating service, feedback on the experience is somewhat divided; some patrons find the pricing high for the quality of items provided, and others have noted inconsistencies in beverage preparation or limited seating availability. Despite mixed remarks regarding the menu depth and the occasional busy atmosphere, the majority of visitors leave with positive impressions, frequently recommending the space as a fun, family friendly spot for a quick caffeine fix or a creative outing in Montreal.

This place has such a unique vibe that sets it apart from the typical chain coffee shops in the area. The pastries are always fresh & taste like they were baked that same morning. It is a great spot to meet a friend for a quick catch up or to just sit by the window & enjoy a quiet afternoon.

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

Saw the reviews for this quaint little coffee shop online so we had to make our way down to Café Capybara. It wasn't what I was expecting.

One young lady at the front taking & making drink orders. While waiting for our drinks to be made, I walked around & although there were some cute keychains, headbands & other things you can craft; it appeared like they ran out of inventory. At the back it seemed like they were getting ready to hold a soap or keychain making lesson.

We ordered the hot matchabary & the pistachios in coconut water. I used two sugars in the matcha, which was perfectly?!!😋
A nice little spot for young kids while waiting for their parents' drinks to be made.

What a lovely place!

We showed up unannounced one evening a few weeks ago. The place was fully booked, yet Jules & Bean took the time to show us around, help our kids pick out some fun gear to decorate, & they even managed to score us a table.l eventually.

What was supposed to be a bit of window shopping turned into an hour & a half of fun, with both kids ecstatic with their creations.

Thanks for a great time!
