Original is amazing. The one in Westmount always let's me down.
Original has great professional staff & better coffee, better pastries, & better food in general. I don't know what it is, I mean I've tried both time & time again, it's just not the same even when I picked on up from both the same day, wasn't on the same level
Still good though,

Took a sandwich 🥪 eggs, salad, tomato, cheese & bacon with black coffee. It was a very nice taste.
It made me question why I didn't buy another one.
Amazing coffee unlike I had before.

P.S the one in picture shows half of sandwich, the other half you know where it went.

Stumbled upon Café Gentile on a lazy Sunday morning & honestly it might be my new go-to spot in the city. The cortado was perfectly balanced, not too bitter, & came out in under two minutes which I appreciated. The space has this warm, unhurried vibe that's rare to find on weekends when most cafes are packed & chaotic. Definitely coming back next time I'm exploring the Mile-Ex area.

Stopped by for something to cool off on the summer, staff were sweet, the iced tea is perfect & the cannoli are to die for. Really decent pricing too.

I stopped there last Saturday. Service was amazing. I ordered a cappuccino & grill cheese. The manager was very nice & offered us a lemon donut for free on the way out. I'll definitely be back there.
