Café Green Drip is praised for high quality matcha and a creative lineup that includes banana bread matcha, ube matcha latte, pistachio and strawberry options, with many reviews calling the drinks creamy, well balanced and not too sweet, though some crave a stronger matcha presence and less ice. The menu also features seasonal specials and Vietnamese coffee, all in a cozy, visually appealing space that some find charming while others note limited seating and a busy, sometimes chaotic vibe. Service quality varies, ranging from friendly, efficient interactions to reports of rude or distracted staff and a heavy reliance on a digital ordering screen that can slow things down. Pricing is frequently described as on the higher side, especially given the amount of ice in drinks, yet several tasters feel the quality justifies the cost for matcha enthusiasts. Overall Café Green Drip comes across as a standout spot for matcha lovers seeking variety and atmosphere, with many visits leaving a positive impression despite some issues with service and value.
The workers there, Jenny & Ray, were really amicable. They offered us to try the flavoured syrups before ordering & even adjusted the amount of syrup after trying the matcha! Not to mention that the blueberry cheesecake matcha was delicious!
went in today & received TOP TIER service from a gentleman that was working. he was super knowledgeable on all of the flavours & was super patient as it was my first time at green drip. as someone who is a matcha lover this is definitely a must try. 💚

Got an iced blueberry cheesecake matcha latte with whole milk & it was really good! The drink is still very matcha forward despite the flavour.
Not a huge fan of not being able to order directly with the barista & the limited seating availability. More of a grab & go place. Would recommend nonetheless & planning on coming back to try their other drinks! :)
Edit : Do better !!! The quality went down so bad since opening. Look at the picture, cup full of ice !! I had literally 3 sips & it was already done. ):
I went for the grand opening & the drinks were quality. I've went back 4 times after that & I find the quality went down. The drinks taste really watery & there's barely any flavour or taste to it. Cups are filled with ice, so the drinks taste doesn't last for $9 :
It's cute inside & their drinks are pretty good. They have cool flavours & an extensive menu, but they do fill their drinks with a lot of ice & it's definitely pricey. Unfortunately their service is really not great. I went after their grand opening & the service was ok, but I found the staff weren't chatty & being forced to order on the screen isn't my favourite. However, I went this week & I unfortunately found the girl working there was rude. I had a question & she was not very friendly about it & on top of that she was on her phone the entire time she was making my drink! I understand it can be boring when the cafe is empty, but there's no need to scroll while whisking the matcha & using the blender. I did enjoy my drink, but service can definitely improve.
Everytime I tried their matcha I was unfortunately very disappointed. It doesn't taste like matcha & has very little flavour. I tried multiple drinks but this always seem to be the problem unfortunately.
I had the blueberry cheesecake matcha-half sweet & I swear it is probably the best matcha I've had. As a flight attendant, ive tried matchas from all over the world & this one is *chefs kiss*. Because it was half sweet I could really taste the matcha but also the flavour of the blueberry cheesecake was subtle but very much there. Also their pebble ice was was icing on the cake. I'll be going back to Montreal literally just for that!

Paid 9$ for ice. They fill the cups with ice to the top, then pour the liquids. The flavours are there but i legit got 5 sips. They told me they can't do less than half ice. Get the hot version instead so you'll get all the cups worth of sips. Ridiculous - worse than starbucks.
& you can't choose the ice level when you make your order on the digital screen. You have to tell the staff after.
their matcha flavour was pretty fantastic honestly!! i got their basic matcha latte without the foam & with half the sweetener because i wanted to get a feel for the quality of the actual matcha & i was very pleased :] the pricing is a little steep (you end up paying around $9 per drink) but it is what's expected for any quality matcha spot in mtl. you're supposed to order through a screen & their interface is very simple & the processing speed is swift. although it wasn't very busy at all when i went, i can confirm that service is quite prompt & that the baristas are polite. will definitely be going again 👍👍
A nice & modern café that offers not only regular matcha drinks but also creative combinations with other popular flavors such as Vietnamese iced coffee, banana bread, & ube. We ordered the Ube Matcha Latte & the Café Green Drip (Vietnamese coffee with matcha foam). Overall, the drinks were good with a well-balanced taste profile. However, if you are specifically looking for a drink that brings out the deep flavour profiles of matcha, we would recommend going with the regular Matcha Latte, as flavors like Vietnamese iced coffee & ube would overpower the matcha. These drinks are better suited for those who enjoy more trendy & experimental takes on matcha. Seating is limited, but there are a few chairs & tables on the balcony that offer a great view of the street.
