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.

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.

One of the best third wave coffeeshops in Montreal.
They have 2 grinders. If you don't ask, you get the'dark roast'. The coffees in the rotation have a similar'dark chocolate' profile.
I go for the light roast which changes every 3 days/1 week with new beans entering the rotation often. I'd say the choice is about 80% smooth & 20% intense.

Mon go-to quand je reviens dans mon ancien hood. :)
Belle luminosité, petit spot extérieur pour s'asseoir pendant les belles journées, qualité constante de l'exécution des cafés, petit menu de sandwichs.
Selon le moment, peut toutefois être très bondé donc pas toujours possible de s'asseoir.
