Review Summary

Café de Mercanti in the Old Port of Montreal is repeatedly praised as a top coffee spot with a cozy vibe and a strong range of gluten free baked goods, from cookies to date squares, and drinks like vanilla iced latte and cappuccinos described as excellent. The coffee quality stands out, with cappuccinos noted as next level and the pastries and gluten free options earning frequent high marks, while the location and friendly staff contribute to a welcoming atmosphere. A few reviews mention moments of less warm service or a hiccup with an order, but the overall sentiment remains very positive. The space is charming and intimate, ideal for a quick stop during a stroll through Old Montreal, making Café de Mercanti a reliable go to for good coffee, tasty treats, and fast, friendly service.

Très bon café, endroit cosy & très sympathique. Parfait pour se poser rapidement au cours d'une balade !

We tried the cappuccino, & it was excellent. The café is located in the Old Port of Montreal, which makes the visit even nicer. I'm planning to try the Americano next time. The service was friendly, & the staff seemed genuinely honest & welcoming.

Le propriétaire est très sympathique & s'est assuré que mon café me plaisait. Il n'y a aucun doute que le service à la clientèle est important pour lui. Mon café était succulent & ma viennoiserie aux pommes était tellement bonne que je voulais en acheter une 2e, mais il n'y en avait plus. Le café est petit mais décoré avec soin & goût.

If you are gluten free like myself, then you NEED to check out this cafe! So good!! I regret I didn't pick up every GF item!! I tried the date square & the coconut square. I'm so impressed!! Haven't had a good tasting gluten free dessert in years! Thank you! (Now I'm trying to re-create the coconut bar!)

I have heard great things about Mercanti for years so decided to try it as I was in the area. What looks like a tiny café from the outside is actually quite spacious inside with great ambiance. The sandwiches, desserts, & of course coffee are just about the highest quality you can find. Great experience, will be back.

I had a cappuccino & a pastry in here. Both were really good. Appreciate they had vegan options for milk. Nothing extraordinary but definitely a cafe worth visiting.
