Review Summary

Café Cosé is widely celebrated as a top destination in Montreal for high quality matcha and unique, Vietnamese-inspired coffee drinks. Many customers praise the innovative menu, particularly the banana-themed and sea salt Earl Grey matchas, which are frequently described as the best in the city. The café offers a warm, modern, and aesthetically pleasing atmosphere that makes it a popular neighborhood spot for relaxing or working. While visitors consistently highlight the friendly and accommodating nature of the staff and owner, the shop is small and can become quite crowded on weekends, often resulting in limited seating and occasional wait times. Although most experiences are highly positive, some guests have noted inconsistencies in drink sweetness or service speed during peak hours, yet the overall consensus remains that the exceptional flavors and inviting environment make it a must-visit location.

Love visiting this place when I'm in Montreal. I ordered their seasonal mango matcha sticky rice, it was yummy! I found my drink didn't have enough matcha flavour originally so I asked the cashier if she could top it off with a little more matcha & she did without hesitation! So sweet of her. Customer service & drinks here are great :)

Very diluted sweet watery drink. I think the barista need some training on Vietnamese iced coffee. The ratio was way too off.

Missed opportunity on the coconut coffee. Instead of espresso, why not just use Vietnamese coffee?
Easy recipe:

Ingredients & Specs
Coffee: 20g (Fine-to-medium grind)
Condensed Milk: 25g
Water: 70g total @ 92°C-93°C
Ice: 100g (in a separate serving cup)

The Method
Prep the Base: Add 25g of condensed milk directly to the bottom of your brewing glass or cup.
Set the Bed: Add 20g of ground coffee into the Phin chamber, give it a gentle shake to level the bed, & lower the filter insert to press down lightly.
The Bloom: Pour in 30g of your 92°C-93°C water. Let it saturate & expand for 45 seconds. This releases trapped gases & prevents channeling.
The Main Pour: Pour the remaining 40g of water. Place the lid on top & let it drip completely through.
Incorporate & Serve: Give the warm coffee & condensed milk a thorough stir until completely smooth, then pour the velvety mixture over your 100g of ice.

J'ai testé latte & brownie les deux étaient très bons, je recommande. Les recettes de latte sont assez originales en plus, ça change !

So cozy, the coffee is really strong so will definitely satisfy your coffee cravings. Nice roasted flavour with the aftertaste. I wanted to try their matcha as I've heard great things about it & it was great! It is flavourful & naturally sweet.

I like the area the most, it's very quiet & plenty of street parking. Customer service was great too & I overall loved the calm & quiet atmosphere. Light music was played too which was perfect.

I went again & got a vanilla latte & earl gray latte & they were both too sweet, the syrup overpowered the coffee flavour. The banana bread latte was better & I would recommend if you want a sweet drink that still tastes like coffee, though it's not my personal taste but at least it was good.

Literally crashing out because I got an iced matcha (given I liked it the last time) & it was literally a white color with a hint of light green.
