About

Café Caron & frères prepares a selection of crusty sandwiches built on artisan loaves and layered with thinly sliced proteins and crisp vegetables. The counter holds a rotating assortment of flaky pastries, each defined by buttery layers and deep fruit preserves. Drip coffee accompanies the food, providing a steady heat to balance the texture of the baked goods. Ingredients undergo simple preparation to maintain the raw vibrancy of the produce and the richness of the dough. The shop emphasizes the tactile experience of eating handheld meals that prioritize dense flavors and structural integrity. Every item sits behind glass, waiting to be pulled for a straightforward, flavor-forward snack that relies on the natural profile of flour, butter, and seasonal fillings.

We stopped in for breakfast on our way to Patricia,'s, three Pines tour. We all had a different breakfast sandwich, tea & coffee. Everything was excellent. Wonderful patio seating on a beautiful morning. Would love to return.

Le meilleur café de la région, la vibe d'un excellent café montréalais, mais en campagne! La qualité du café est incroyable & les cafés sont toujours très bien choisis. Que dire du ARNOLD PALMER, un délice!

Très bel endroit.
Mais, très achalandé ce qui n'offre pas un service extra car le personnel est très sollicité.
Les cafés sont très bons, j'ai pris le grilled cheese, il était normal dans plus

Arrived at cafe at 2:45 & waited in line until 3:03 only to be told that they can no longer make sandwiches because they do not make them after 3:00pm. They could have mentioned it as I waited in line so we can go elsewhere with a hungry child. Very disappointing. .
