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.

The coffee at DAX is authentic & hits the spot. Very well mannered & welcoming baristas. A great place to catch up with a friend or have a moment to yourself. I love the dax croissant sandwich (must try), the food feels like comfort food & is healthy!

C'est indisputablement le meilleur café third wave en ville. Service impeccable. Le sandwich déjeuner est tellement bon ! Par contre, les croissants ne sont pas à mon goût; ils sont plus denses & peu croustillants.

Very nice coffee. Grilled cheese with ham was great but look, it's about $8 for a tiny sandwich it can be a treat only once in a while. The coffee is exceptional though, clearly they are using great coffee beans & baristas are extremely kind & professional. Overall it's worth a visit for a good cup of coffee.

Not quite the coffee shop atmosphere that I look for Service was great. Knowledgeable friendly. Pastry choices very limited. A bit cramped. The coffee however was excellent. Overall will probably go back but not as a destination I will try a sandwich next time.
