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!)

Stopped here for a quick lunch with a colleague. Great taste, fast service. I had a quiche which was less than 3'' & cost $7!!! Very tasty but seriously overpriced!

We started our morning walk in Old Town with a stop here. Frank, the owner, was very friendly. & I have to say, it was the best coffee I had during my entire trip in Montreal. I didn't get a treat, but the cookies look amazing!

I mistakenly ordered an americano rather than a latte & the barista was quite nasty about exchanging it. I just ordered another. Too bad. This would never have happened at their Monkland venue.

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.
