Reviewers repeatedly highlight the matcha as among the best in town, with favorites like banana bread matcha, earl grey sea salt matcha and sea salt earl grey, along with strong Vietnamese coffee and egg coffee options; most find the drinks well balanced and flavorful, though a few note sweetness levels can be too high or the flavors uneven at times.

best matcha in mtl!! their banana bread matcha is a must have & their staff is always so friendly & accommodating :) the breakfast sandwich is 10/10. nice atmosphere & cozy interior. definitely worth checking out if ur in the area
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
This coffee spot is super cute. I went there to taste their new red velvet latte & was not disappointed. The baristas are very nice, the place is super cozy & the food tastes wonderful. I totally recommend!!
I've had & (loved) the Vietnamese coffee with condensed milk here before, so I ordered two today & clearly explained the drink to the barista to be sure it was the drink I was wanting to show my friend. Unfortunately, what we received was very different from what I've had in the past. When I asked about it, he told me it was because he had stirred the condensed milk directly into the to-go cup. To his credit, the barista did remake the drink the way I originally requested, & it was delicious.
What made the experience very uncomfortable was because there was a long line, I had to briefly step forward to fix the order, & the person at the front of the line was understandably frustrated. While I was standing there, I overheard the barista tell that customer that if he were in his position, he would have'lost it' on me.
That comment was really disappointing, rude & embarrassing to hear as a customer who was simply trying to correct a drink that had been made differently than ordered. It made me feel judged & unwelcome.
I'm sharing this because I genuinely like your coffee & felt part of the community & have had positive experiences before, but hospitality & professionalism in moments like this matter just as much as the quality of the drink, & I don't think I will be visiting here again.

Le matcha est bon & le bagel au saumon fumé est correct, mais on peut en trouver de meilleurs ailleurs. En revanche, le service était très long pour recevoir mon bagel.
