Un endroit incontournable! Le service est excellent, le café est exquis & la nourriture est tout simplement délicieuse. Mention spéciale pour le grilled cheese qui est vraiment bon. L'ambiance est vraiment fun & on se sent comme à la maison. Le propriétaire est généreux & contribue énormément à la vie du quartier. Je recommande vivement ce café à tous ceux qui cherchent un endroit convivial pour passer un bon moment.

I'm always excited to discover new coffee shops & Dax had been on my list for a while as it always looked cozy & fun whenever I saw it while driving on Van Horne. My girlfriend & I decided to visit today to get iced drinks on a very hot summer day. When I walked in, I was super happy to see shelves of small-batch coffee beans & cute to-go cups, etc. Honestly, I just really liked the aesthetic & vibes. The baristas were also quite polite. Where it all went wrong for me is the fact that another customer (who appears to be a regular by the name of Thierry) felt it was appropriate to look me over & say I was a "nice view" (TWICE.) What started as a friendly conversation about cortados quickly became weird & uncomfortable. When he asked me for my name & then my last name & I told him I wasn't comfortable, he quietly cussed me out before chatting up others in the coffee shop. Now, I know that this technically isn't the café's fault, but this all happened in front of the main counter & not one employee batted an eye. It didn't make me feel safe & largely because of this I'm not sure I'd want to come back here. Also, make sure to ask for extra syrup in your iced latte or cortado because they really don't put a lot. EDIT: Dominic, thank you for your reply. You must have me confused for someone else because I did not talk to any manager about this. I'm glad you told this man to leave, but that was already after I had left.

Enfin un petit café avec une ambiance café comme j'aime... la musique (pas trop forte), les odeurs de café & la décoration boisée. Je recommande le capuccino !

Great super friendly staff. Good coffee, & great baked goods (the chocolate scone is probably the best I've ever had anywhere). Nice outdoor patio.

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.

Excellent service, les barista sont très avenants & sympathiques. Leur Matcha Latte est très bon, tout comme leur décaff qui est très gouteux. Je recommande chaleureusement, c'est l'un de mes cafés préférés! Très bonne ambiance de surcroit & propreté.
