Overall, Café Kuya is a warm, neighborhood café on the south shore known for great third-wave coffee, matcha, and signature drinks with ube syrup, alongside Filipino-inspired sandwiches and smash burgers that many reviewers rate highly. The staff are repeatedly praised for friendliness and attentiveness, and the vibe is cozy with Star Wars memorabilia and a strong community feel that invites lingering or working on site, though a few criticisms pop up about seating during peak times, occasional inconsistency in coffee flavor, changes to recipes such as the ube sauce, and a messy bathroom on some visits. Still, the place is seen as a local gem with regulars, pop ups, and collaborations that reflect a clear sense of place, making it a go-to stop for drinks and comfort food like the tocino or lechon sandwiches, buko pie, and other pastries.
Discovered this cafe as my daughter picked up a coffee. I immediately noticed delicious looking Burgers on clients tables. I inquired about kitchen opening hours, as my head office is accross the street & I am too busy to cook & only order out. Showed up today, & was told kitchen was closed. Was extremely disappointed, & walked out. Very friendly employee came to get me outside to tell me they would accommodate me, & apologized about the closing hours confusion. So professional on their part. Burger was amazing! They have a new regular client for life. I strongly recommend.
Super friendly & vibey cafe where the Baristas & kitchen staff really work together to serve excellent drinks & food. That chicken sandwich is super crispy & absolutely huge. If you are in Brossard, it is definitely the place to go.

Great little cafe hidden in the corner of the strip mall. The iced ube latte is especially good. It's small so sometimes there will be no place to sit as the tables are all occupied by students studying.
We wanted a coffee while in brossard & went to Yuka cafe & the staff was super sweet & I took a iced chai & it was delicious & my bf got a hojicha with ube syrup ans it was also very goof & the price is fair! Will definitely go back again!
Première visite dans ce petit joyau de Café. Le personnel amical & l' atmosphere sympathique nous surprend. Participant au Burger Week, Burger aux champignons est délicieux à souhait & le Latte glacé Ube est Sublime.
Café Kuya is my favourite cafe on Montreal's South Shore. Phil & the crew are always happy to welcome guests & treat them well. I go once or twice a week & the consistency of their quality service is unmatched.
We googled to find the nearest highly- rated café near Hotel Brossard, & this was it. It was such a pleasant surprise to check out their menu & find Filipino foods & flavours. We only came for caffeine, so all we had were their iced coffees: ube & mocha flavours. It was well worth it though. The flavour was very rich & satisfying. Excellent service. Excellent iced coffees. Eager to return next time we're here.

This café is a little gem. Good coffee, delicious sandwiches, friendly staff, & overall excellent vibes. It really makes Brossard feel like a neighbourhood. I wish there were more spots like this in the area.
Mon café préféré sur la rive sud!! Il n'y a pas beaucoup d'options de café dans ce genre à Brossard - mais celui-là est vraiment une très belle adresse!! L'atmosphère est agréable, les boissons sont savoureuses, & les petits encas à la saveur philippine sont délicieux. Je viens régulièrement travailler ici avec mon ordinateur certaines matinées, jamais déçue!! à mettre sur votre liste de petit café charmant pour passer un bon moment!!
This charming local café, open for three years now, is perfect for students & boasts an Instagram-worthy ambiance. Run by two Filipino friends, the café offers a delightful selection of beverages, including chai latte, matcha latte, & iced ube latte, each priced at $5 & incredibly tasty. We also tried their Lechon (pork belly with grilled pineapple) (9$) & chicken sandwiches ($10). While the sandwiches were delicious, I wished they were larger, especially the chicken sandwich, as the bread overpowered the other ingredients. On the bright side, free parking is available.
