Not Friendly & Bad Coffee:
The'tall, young' Barista did not know how to make a proper Flat White (must be made with proper ratio of espresso to microfoam) & instead mainly like a cup of'warm milk.' Perhaps because he was too focused on chatting it up with his colleague on the topic of hockey stats (no issues with that, so long as you can also focus & make a proper coffee for the customer).
The'older' fellow who took the order at the cash was rude & presented a classic'arrogant vibe.' No'good morning' or a even hello to the customer?
Quite rare to experience both arrogant & unhospitable attitude...& bad coffee but they nailesd it!

Café de' Mercanti est, sans aucun doute, le meilleur café de NDG ! L'ambiance est chaleureuse, le service impeccable & les cafés absolument délicieux. Un incontournable !

Il y avait trop de monde & il fallait préparer plusieurs commandes en même temps. J'ai commandé un cappuccino qui avait très peu de café, j'ai bu presque du lait.

Excellent à tous points de vue, nourriture, service, vraiment parfait. Dommage, c'est un peu bruyant, mais peu importe, c'est tellement bon !

Nice little italian coffeeshop. Good espresso. Good side snack: croissants, cookies.

Food & coffee good even though a bit overpriced, but the place is a bit dirty They are not really friendly & they keep air conditioning literally shooting on the head of customers. I got sick!!!!! Not recommended

Great casual terrace to enjoy your coffee outdoors. Sit & chat for as long as you like. Some people had their dogs. I had a single shot latte which was good, but I'd probably go for a double shot next time. They have some croissants & cookies but I didn't see any food.

Looking for the perfect espresso in Montreal? Café de' Mercanti on Monkland Ave is a true gem that brings a slice of Italy right to NDG! 🇮🇹☕?
From the moment you walk in, the aroma of freshly brewed coffee hits you, & you know you're in for something special. Their espresso is hands-down one of the best in the city-rich, smooth, & authentically Italian, just like in Rome. Whether you're a coffee purist or love a creamy cappuccino, you'll find your new favorite here.
The vibe is cozy & welcoming, with friendly staff who make you feel like a regular even on your first visit. There's plenty of seating inside & a cute garden terrace for sunny days-perfect for catching up with friends or enjoying a quiet moment with a book. Don't miss their pastries & fresh cannoli, piped to order & absolutely delicious.
Café de' Mercanti is more than just a coffee shop-it's a neighborhood hub with a real community feel. If you're in NDG, do yourself a favor & stop by for a true Italian coffee experience. Highly recommended!

Love this place. The coffee is amazing & the staff is the same. It does get busy but the line moves fast & it's worth the short wait. Pastries & snacks are all delicious.
