Review Summary

Café DAX comes across as a warm, locally owned spot in Outremont where a hands on owner and a friendly team create a welcoming atmosphere and consistently excellent coffee and drinks, open seven days a week. The cafe earns praise for its cozy ambiance, indoor and outdoor seating, and a menu that ranges from specialty coffee and chai lattes to grilled cheese, croissant sandwiches, and treats like a dulce de leche donut, with a standout vegan gluten free cookie noted by many. The offering expands with wine by the glass and an on site sommelier, and plans to add frozen gourmet treats as part of an expansion. Guests describe it as a favorite for meetings and casual visits with friends, with service described as attentive and courteous. The space is also known for being pet friendly with dogs welcome, though a few reviews mention crowding in winter in the small space. Overall it is viewed as a top Montreal pick for third wave coffee, thoughtful bites, and a charming neighborhood vibe, with a terrace for summer and a convenient location near the metro.

This cafe & the hands on customer oriented owner goes above & beyond for the client! This is my favorite cafe in Montreal. I love the atmosphere, the ambiance & the maple oat milk latte is for me, one & only! I discovered this diamond of a place in the summer of 2024 & I have enjoyed many a good meetings & sit downs here with friends & so much good food from the grilled cheese to the dulce ro leche donut I can't say enough positive things about the epicness of this cafe! Dax cafe is about to expand into frozen ice cream gourmet treats so get ready for that as it's going to be one more addition to this already awesome cafe in the heart of Outremont!! Located on avenue Van Horne & open seven days a week even during holidays !!! I'd encourage you to support this Quebec owned local business that is full of heart & high quality coffee & hot & cold , beverages ( including epic wines!) , artisanal goods & ceramics for sale & an indoor & outdoor atmosphere that is gorgeous! If I could give Dax cafe 10 stars I would as they certainly deserve it! Excellent staff, excellent food & drinks.. it is your go to place! The best kept secret in Montreal is this gem!

Ps they welcome dogs on leashes… my Shiba is always welcome here which is yet another example of why Dax is so great!!! 😃

Fantastic little spot for good food in a chill atmosphere. Strongly recommend the grilled cheese & the mocha especially, it was the best of all the coffees I'd tried in Outremont.

Great location, right next to Outremont metro station. Has a nice little terrace. The espresso was great. I had a grilled ham grilled cheese & it was very good as well. The owner is very knowledgeable & passionate about coffee. Staff was nice too.

Café très bon & très sympa à deux pas de la station Outremont. Terrasse au soleil & beaucoup d'options. Possible d'y travailler & de s'y restaurer également.

Dax a fait ses preuves durant les dernières années & cela au travers de la pandémie. Non seulement côté café/torréfaction & /produits reliés excellente qualité mais aussi à l'ambiance des lieux grâce sa localisation donnant sur l'avenue Van Horne à Outremont, de grandes fenêtres & wifi. Je recommande, fait partie de mon top 3 Café Montréal!
