Le Café Capybara convie les visiteurs sur la rue Saint-Catherine Ouest, au Centre-Ville de Montréal, où une ambiance chaleureuse accompagne le rythme urbain. Le café offre un espace accueillant pour faire une pause avant d'explorer les boutiques et la culture du quartier. Avec un service chaleureux et des boissons préparées ainsi que des collations, Café Capybara devient une échappée quotidienne, un lieu de rencontre invitant pour les locaux et les voyageurs cherchant une pause réconfortante dans ce cadre animé.
Dans l'ensemble, Café Capybara est décrit comme un café mignon sur le thème des capybaras, avec une ambiance chaleureuse et familiale, un espace arrière spacieux pour les bricolages et les ateliers DIY, et une carte de boissons variée comprenant matcha, goyave, pistache et d'autres créations ludiques, les commentateurs appréciant l'ambiance, la marchandise en peluches et la possibilité de concevoir ou fabriquer des objets; l'endroit est souvent salué pour son service amical et son charme, bien que certains signalent des prix plus élevés pour les fournitures de bricolage, un nombre limité de places et des temps d'attente plus longs lorsque l'endroit est bondé, et des variations occasionnelles dans la douceur ou la qualité des boissons; pour beaucoup, c'est une visite à ne pas manquer, surtout pour les amateurs de capybaras et les enfants, avec des réservations recommandées pour les ateliers et une invitation à prévoir à l'avance.
The service was the bare minimum. My friend & I walked in 5 min before the opening, so I told the cashier not to worry because we're not going to order anything until the opening time. Then, she made us feel unwelcome by staring at us & not saying anything so we left to eat lunch next door because they have no food on their menu anyways. If you don't want clients in the store before the opening time, why are the doors unlocked?
I ordered the pistachio bonbon à la noix de coco. I thought the drinks would be good since they have chosen to focus on that. It was basically cream drowned in coconut water with big chunks of pistachio on top. I paid 8$ for a large. I really did not like it, it was barely drinkable & the pistachio chunks would clog the straw. Since I didn't want to waste my money, I asked the employee for some kind of drizzle to drown out the taste. She had difficulty understanding what I was saying & responded by saying that the drizzles I could see on the counter were not for sale. Finally, I brought the drink home & mixed it myself with chocolate syrup. My friend ordered the milk & strawberries tea, which was better than mine but too strong & too sweet. Also, the music was a bit too loud for comfortable conversation.
They have a small but cute collection of capybara merch but it's nothing compared to the wide variety you can find at Miniso, right down the street.
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?

Very nice don't speak French but could communicate in English, cozy, cute & loved my time got the Taro & it was really good a perfect mix not so sweet.
The coffees are so delicious, rich & the flavours are so distinct from eachother which makes it so much easier to try new drinks every time you're here , the staff is so sweet & it's overall a really cute spot!
I just got home from a tasting at the brand new Capybara Café, & honestly? I'm still thinking about it.
They're serving up Korean-inspired coffee creations that are full of heart (& foam). Their coffee beans are custom-made just for them - & you can taste the love in every sip.
One thing I loved? They whip up their foam toppings fresh every single morning. No shortcuts, just that thick, silky goodness. & if you're a bonbon drink fan like me, their whipped topping is made with cream cheese, condensed milk, & a little magic. So good !
My personal favorites from the tasting:
Bonbon à la noix de coco - Fraise: Coconut water + strawberry = summer in a cup. Light, creamy, just sweet enough - basically a cloud you can sip.
☕ Café Viennois - Pistachio: If pistachio is your love language, this one's for you. Rich, nutty, & luxuriously smooth.
Bonbon à la noix de coco - Taro: the earthy sweetness & coconut base hit just right.
& not to be dramatic, but the café itself is adorable. Capybara merch, plushy keychains , & cute decor everywhere. It feels like stepping into a capybara's dream world.
If you're into coffee with a side of cuteness (& extra foam), Capybara Café is definitely worth a visit. I'm already planning my next trip back to try more of their unique creations . The guava iced americano is calling my name.
I share local foodie finds & cultural gems at @foxyappetite on Instagram & @foxy.appetite on TikTok - & this one definitely earned a spot.
