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.

Super mocha, bagel assez moyen (semblable à un industriel) manquant de sel car le beurre utilisé était non salé. Rajouter de la fleur de sel aiderait à ce niveau. Bonne ambiance malgré que plutôt occupé. On a oublié de me servir le bagel mais cela s'est rapidement résolu. Prix plutôt élevés.

The coffee was fine but not what I was hoping for given the other reviews. Lovely, caring service & very impressive wine collection.

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!

J'ai pris un café latte à l'érable avec lait d'avoine & c'était vraiment un des meilleurs cafés que j'ai pris depuis longtemps à Montréal, très velouté & doux au goût, parfait pour une journée pluvieuse. Agréablement surpris par la politesse & l'entregent de l'équipe!

Super bel endroit pour prendre un café, une viennoiserie ou y découvrir des vins sympathiques. Possibilité de prendre également des rôties ou un bagel. Ambiance de quartier très plaisante. Ça ouvre un peu tard pour un café surtout les fins de semaine, mais sinon rien à dire de négatif.

Love this cute cafe! The latte is always on point & the pastries are very yummy. Hard to resist! It has lots of natural light making it an ideal place for coffee dates.

Used to be my favourite coffee spot, but I feel like the quality has gone down in the last year- the coffee used to be richer, creamier; maybe they changed the coffee beans or something, but it's not the same :/ still pretty good though

I requested an Americano & got an espresso, my friend asks for a macchiato coffee & it took literally 10 minutes! & no apologies for the delay.
Not going back!!
