Review Summary

Café Caron & frères is widely celebrated as one of the best specialty coffee shops in Montreal, drawing consistent praise for its expert preparation of espresso, cortados, and seasonal favorites like the popular tiramisu latte. Visitors frequently highlight the warm and inviting atmosphere, complemented by a charming outdoor seating area that serves as a neighborhood hub. While the quality of the coffee and the breakfast sandwiches is consistently lauded, some customers note that the shop can become quite crowded during peak hours and occasionally find the portion sizes small relative to the price. Although the vast majority of experiences reflect friendly, professional service and high-quality beans from various reputable roasters, isolated instances of inconsistent service or pricing concerns have been mentioned. Overall, the establishment is regarded as a must-visit gem for coffee enthusiasts seeking a cozy space with a strong commitment to craft.

Always too busy to get a spot, but one thing that peeved me was I bought a jumper from them & wasn't given a receipt but was told at the time I could return it whenever. Then I needed to after trying it on. Suddenly none of the staff knew how to process a return. A large queue formed behind me & then thankfully (or not) the manager showed up. The girls were sweet & apologized but the manager seemed suspicious of me & checked out the jumper infront of everyone in the cafe incase I'd damaged it. He seemed annoyed I did not have a receipt & then they didn't even seem able to refund me to my card & gave me cash without option.

The manager, tersely, told me afterwards to bring a receipt in future & I again told him I was not provided one by his staff in his cafe.

It was an unpleasant experience & frankly super unncessary. People forget it's just a cafe they are working in, not a medical emergency room, & even then it's not that serious, but treating customers like crooks is probably not the way to ensure return business when there are dozens of cafes in a square block not overrun by unfriendly hipsters.

Service was great, the place is definitely a vibe & the pastries/coffee are worth it. A little on the pricey side but if you're visiting, just splurge. We had some of the cookies & oh boy, incredible!

We bought 3 coffee drinks & before leaving I really needed to pee so I politely asked him if I could use the bathroom (it was a few weeks post covid- besides I honestly never caught any covid in my whole life) he said they were out of order… BUT after 8 minutes a woman asked to use the bathroom & he instantly let her use it. I felt like going back at the counter to tell him but I don't like confrontations. I often pass in front of their cafe but they won't ever get a dime from me again I've been boycotting their cafe place ever since :-).

Mon café préféré de Montréal. 11/10 pour le cortado. & peu importe le/la barista, ça sera toujours le même goût 👌.

Ils ont même fait un matcha en format cortado 💚

The tiramisu coffee was good the espresso unfortunately had a weird taste, not to our liking. Properly brewed but the taste was just not enjoyable. Overrated in my opinion.
