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.

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.
I've been going to Dax for years, & it remains one of my favorite local coffee shops. It's not just a neighbourhood gem, it consistently ranks among the best specialty coffee spots in the city. The team is incredibly welcoming, & their customer service is second to none. They're passionate about what they do, & it shows in every cup. Dax also offers an impressive selection of Canadian-roasted specialty beans, perfect for both casual coffee lovers & serious home brewers. The quality, consistency, & atmosphere make it a place I keep coming back to.
Un bon endroit de quartier, quelque fois, empressé, même pour les consommateurs fidèles. Un bon café de bonne mouture, wifi accessible & pratique, table & chaise confortable peut être occupé assise limité. Les cartes de fidélité ne sont plus disponibles malheureusement. Concept intéressant & novateur depuis son ouverture. Belle qualité d'ensemble. Possibilité d'expansion dans un plus grand local!! 8/10.
Le café est excellent, les employés sont toujours souriants & créent une bonne ambiance, & le proprio vient toujours te voir & te parler. On sent qu'ils essayent de créer quelque chose d'unique & chaleureux. Merci!
Un café original sur Van Horne. D'abord, le café était excellent, mais la présence de bouteilles de vin tout autour nous met certainement en appétit d'y revenir !
