Review Summary

Across the reviews Café Différance is described as a cozy and consistently high quality spot with excellent coffee and a variety of drinks including chai, matcha and London Fog, along with quick friendly service and pastries that hit the mark; favorites like scones, cookies and biscuits are praised, while some notes point to small portion sizes for drinks and a compact seating area that isn't ideal for working on a laptop; the cafe is regarded as a go to place in Old Montreal for locals and visitors alike, with mentions of takeout and hours that work well; the overall impression is a welcoming, well run cafe that stands out for its coffee and sweets.

I ordered an ice matcha latte, & it was good quality, but a bit expensive for the small size & with too little milk in my opinion.

Matcha latte absolument délicieux. Assez difficile de trouver de bons matcha en ville. Les baristas sont expérimentés

Best latte I’ve ever tasted. I’m back in Ontario now & I can’t find one as good. I’ll always remember this cafe. It set a high standard for taste.
