Was excited to try this place based on reviews. I am very picky on coffee & I have a very high standard, this place did not meet my expectations but it was very crowded & everyone seemed to enjoy it.

Staff is very nice & it was quick enough to get everything despite it being so busy.

If you are the type to enjoy Zab & other very high specialty coffee this place will probably not meet your expectations, but there is nothing wrong about it.

I got the iced tiramisu latte which was good. I wish there was AC & the size was bigger for the price. It is an aesthetically appealing drink which I liked.

Montreal's coffee game is insane, honestly- Almost Every local shop maintains an incredibly consistent high standard across the board
Their lattes are next-level good; the foam's so silky & smooth, the coffee & milk blend so evenly without one overpowering the other, super creamy & well-rounded.

We stopped by & tried their maple cinnamon & butter caramel lattes, & both were absolutely delicious! The flavours were perfectly balanced, & you can tell they take pride in making great coffee. The staff were also friendly & welcoming, which made the experience even better.
The café can get quite busy, & seating is a bit limited, so you may have to wait for a table or grab your coffee to go. That said, the quality of the coffee is definitely worth it, & we'll definitely be back!

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!

Went here to study & read & the tiramisu coffees were such a treat! I'm not a fan of matcha in general but the cream & cookie made it really enjoyable.
The service was good & window seats were lovely, I actually got some work done on my essay :)
Nice spot for a cute date, or just to study or chat until 7PM.

Amazing coffee with the most amazing staff. Great selection of light bites as well. Love what they did with the space - so cozy & warm! I liked this place so much I came back two days in a row & bought a bag of beans to take home.
