Cafe Gotsoul earns praise for its chill vibe, great music, and friendly, accommodating staff that make the space welcoming. Coffee and pastries are repeatedly highlighted, with standout drinks and a varied pastry selection that pair well with the atmosphere. The interior is stylish and distinctive, echoing a record shop with vinyl, a gramophone, and a small in-house DJ setup that enhances the experience and hosts listening parties and events. Guests often feel at home, noting a nostalgic, living-room vibe and a sense of comfort during visits. Service is generally strong and professional, though a rare order slip can occur, usually resolved with a quick apology and correction. Pricing is mentioned by some as a downside for certain items, but many feel the overall value, ambiance, and music justify it. Overall, Cafe Gotsoul is a unique spot for coffee lovers and music fans, delivering a memorable vibe and experience.
I like that small cafe. The music is on point, the prices are not the best but still expensive for a small latte at 6$. The cashier/cook/order receiver/busboy maybe too but he did am excellent job, i dont remember his name, its like greg or something. Small dude with glasses, very nice ill definitely go again!
Wow. Très beau café & surtout si vous voulez avoir des souvenirs du temps du Soul. Il y a un DJ qui vient vers 13h le jeudi pour faire des mixs avec vinyles. Tout simplement fantastique. Vaut vraiment le détou
This café has the coolest vibes! There was good music playing, the service was great & the latte & vegan chocolate chip cookie were also nice. I am for sure coming back, specially when they have a live DJ set
Truly a spectacular café, a jewel in fact
Fabulous food sandwiches & pastries
Friendly & down to earth staff
Exceptional music & sound distribution environment... most hi-fi enthusiasts will have a jaw-dropping experience listening at Gotsoul... as this shop is part café part vintage HiFi museum... run by Jojo Flores internationally recognized DJ & hi-fi collector & musical curator...
Drop-in play some Chess say hi to Mike or David or Jojo if he's there (he often is)
The chicken sandwich is 💎💎💎 & the scones are Out-Of-This-World
Ideal Sound Pressure Level vibes for a perfect pistachio milk café latté
You will not be disappointed
I'm extremely happy with my experience. The staff was very professional, friendly, & made me feel comfortable throughout my audio appointment. Mike was especially outstanding - incredibly professional, extremely knowledgeable about audio equipment, & even impressive when it came to making great coffee. The team did an amazing job from start to finish & delivered high-quality work. Top marks all around. Amazing man.

Love this place! The music theme is super cute & they did a very good job of making the café look like a record shop (you can actually buy records). The coffee is also great, & the service is good every time. Definitely a favourite of mine.
This place is a vibe. Loved the Sade/Maxwell mixtape session today. The baristas are super friendly & patient. I might just become a regular even though it's a bit far from my place.
