I loveee their iced banana matcha!! Their seasonal drinks are something to look forward to. Still dreaming about the carrot cake matcha they had a couple months ago😛 100% recommend
lowkey so mid. the banana matcha was just okay, very cinnamon heavy. the salted egg coffee was not good - the espresso was super bitter.
cute place tho
their banana bread matcha &/or latte is genuinely the best thing i've ever tasted in my life, as well as their earl grey matcha
worth going back a 100 times for it
i hope they never remove these from the menu 🙏🏼
also very cute little café with good wifi + pretty clean bathroom which is always a bonus
the baristas & owner are nice too :)
We tried the banana iced latte & the earl grey matcha. I've tested many coffee places in Montreal, & this place is absolutely amazing. The mood of the employees is awesome, & the flavours of the drinks is matching our highest expectations. Could not recommend more!
A trendy cafe that is worth the hype. Their banana matcha is such a perfect drink. It's sweet but not too sweet, very delicate, & tastes exactly like banana bread. The earl grey salted matcha is comforting & flavourful (can't taste the salt too much but that's ok).
Seating is quite limited so this is a grab & go place for sure. It's quickly become one of my favourites!
My go to is to get a matcha here & grab a sandwich from clarks to pair it with.
We ordered sea salt earl grey (6.50$+tax) & banana matcha (6.50$+tax). The banana matcha wasn't sweet enough & the sea salt earl grey was okay. It was a small cafe & the sitting spots were limited.
I had the banana matcha & while a good concept & quite tasty, I felt that it's very overpriced for what it is & the service was very confused. They don't follow first-come-first-served, there were a few people before me who got the wrong order, & overall there was a long-ish wait time.
Cute & cozy spot ! They have a nice sweet selection & the seasonal drink Caramalized Banana Latte is INSANELY GOOD ! Can't get enough of it, a must try 😉
