Café Castel

If I could give six stars, I would ...one extra for how much my taste buds danced in confusion & delight. Cafe Castle is where coffee meets therapy & croissants meet emotional support. I ordered a latte that was so good I briefly considered proposing to the barista ...not for love, but for consistent caffeine supply.

The vibe? Somewhere between'European art student' &'I own three journals but finish none.' The food? Let's just say my plate looked like it had been through a natural disaster when I was done.

If you're in Montreal & don't go to Cafe Castle, you're doing breakfast wrong.

Un très bel endroit bien situé dans Montréal avec un bon service ! En plus c'était bon 😀

The coffee & service was good, but the vegetable wrap was soggy, cold & unappetizing. For 11$, I was expecting more than a couple of slices of cold aubergine & zucchini in a wrap. Please change your recipe & add at least a little protein in your only vegetarian wrap.

Really nice cafe, especially for it being attached to a hotel. For some reason, by hopes were low but my expectations were for sure exceeded. The coffee was a very reasonable price, & very delicious. The croissant was also good. Service was good, nothing incredible but nothing below good. I would be willing come back here again if I return to Montreal, & I normally don't repeat coffee shops unless the quality is incredible.

This coffeeshop is not living to its potential. The atmosphere & setting are amazing & quite unique in the area, which gives it a particular charm.
However, the prices are inflated past the market around them, you will end up paying a few dollars more on basic items compared to similar experiences around. Food might be good but the portions (ie for sandwiches or quiches) are quite small for the higher price.
I haven't tried the coffee there in a while, I won't be commenting on that. But please DO NOT take the matcha latte: I have tried many matcha lattes from different coffeeshops around Montreal & this has got to be worse one I've had. It tasted like sour, diluted, & uncomfortably cold water with a very subtle hint of a grassy horrible taste. Quite disappointing as a coffeeshop to add matcha on your menu just to copy the market when you are unable to provide a proper high-quality matcha powder & design a latte with correct proportions & taste.

Nice atmosphere!
Not open as late as other places.
Conveniently close.
Nice variety of drinks & food.
Wider variety than the Starbucks across the street!
Also, bigger student discount than starbucks' refill discount (which requires an app).
