Review Summary

Café Hélico is widely appreciated for its cute atmosphere, welcoming staff, and high-quality coffee and matcha offerings. Many visitors highlight the breakfast sandwich and various pastries as standout items, while the terrace is frequently described as a lovely place to relax. Despite these positive aspects, some customers note that portions can be small relative to the price, leading to concerns about value. Additional feedback touches on the need for more diverse savory menu options, better accessibility for remote work, and consistent service quality. While the overall vibe is consistently praised as chill and pleasant, occasional inconsistencies in food preparation and mixed experiences regarding the pet-friendly policy suggest varying levels of satisfaction among the regular clientele.

Le café, le scone sucré & le sandwich déjeuner sont toujours aussi bons, mais le Hélico n'est plus l'endroit réconfortant & lumineux qu'il était. Ce n'est maintenant qu'un comptoir.

Great spot! FYI they are in renovations right now so in terms of dine-in there is currently only four high chairs at the window bar & a bench along the side of another wall (maybe 6 people total?)

L'hélico est un de mes endroits préférés 💓 J'y vais fréquemment & les récentes rénovations sont magnifiques & améliorent tellement l'espace !
Je trouve juste ça dommage par contre qu'on ne puisse plus vraiment y aller en mode déjeuner sur place, dans la salle à manger du resto hélicoptère. Mais je vais prendre mon sandwich déjeuner & mon dirty chaï (le best à Montréal à mon avis !!) to go ✨

Such a cute cafe & the employees were very friendly as well. I bought the matcha latte, which tasted great! We'll definitely be back to enjoy the food next time.

Vraiment notre café préféré du quartier depuis toujours. Depuis 2023 cependant, les portions ont vraiment diminué de moitié, une soupe à 10$ devrait quand même être un bol plus rempli....

Today I tried this one, it was okey. The pumpkin late was very sugary & you barely have a taste of the pumpkin spices, they told me there is no sugar free option on that coffee ☕️💀 It's calm but the tables are kinda wobbly & there are a lot of movement from the kitchen to the tables, I don't recommend this to work or study 📚

Très bon café, j'ai goûté le latte à la citrouille & il est vraiment bien dosé. Ils proposent du lait de soja ou du lait d'avoine en plus du lait régulier.
