Review Summary

Overall, Café Différance is described as a cozy spot with consistently high quality coffee and a quick, friendly service, where the menu spans specialty brews, filter coffee, lattes, a good matcha and chai, and cold brew, and where pastries like scones and cookies are frequently highlighted as standout. Many reviews note a pleasant, clean atmosphere and a convenient location near Old Montreal, though the space is not very large and is less suitable for laptop work. Some diners mention small portion sizes and a higher price for smaller ice drinks such as an ice matcha latte, but the quality across the years is praised and a few items such as the breakfast burrito, scone, and cookies are repeatedly called delicious. The impression across reviews is that Café Différance delivers reliable, enjoyable coffee and treats with a welcoming vibe that keeps people returning, and some describe the best latte and the filter coffee as among the top they have had.

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
