Dans l'ensemble, Café Kuya est décrit comme un endroit chaleureux et cosy, un vrai repère de quartier avec un personnel sympathique, une ambiance accueillante et des plats et boissons qui marient café et saveurs philippines dans des sandwichs et pâtisseries innovants. Les avis louent le matcha et le sirop d'ube, les saveurs pandan, ainsi que les smash burgers, les sandwiches Lechon et Tocino, les frites croustillantes et les douceurs, tout en notant parfois des périodes de forte affluence ou une préparation du café qui peut varier; certains signalent aussi des boissons parfois moins fortes, ou une température intérieure plus fraîche, mais le consensus demeure que la nourriture est savoureuse, les boissons créatives et l'atmosphère fait une halte idéale pour le petit-déjeuner, le brunch ou une simple rencontre entre amis. Le café est aussi salué pour être un lieu communautaire qui accueille des pop ups et soutient les producteurs locaux, et le personnel est souvent décrit comme allant au-delà pour faire sentir les clients comme chez eux, contribuant à une impression de chez soi loin de chez soi.
Very disappointed. Came to this place when it first opened & the food & matcha/coffee were excellent. For the past few months, the experience & quality dropped more & more & more. My last straw was today when I ordered an Ube matcha that was 9,45$ & had to throw it because it was that bad.
Matcha iced latte with ube syrup. That's what was recommended to me by the very friendly barista & I wasn't disappointed! Can't wait to go back, lovely little place. Was very busy too!
The food, the coffee & matcha are exceptionnal, but the best is their staff & vibe. I would definitely recommend the smash burger. I have done many smash burger spots in Montreal & theirs was maby the best.
Great vibes, super friendly staff, & the food is a BANGER.
Tocino sandwich was great, tender juicy chicken, 10/10
Lechon Sandwich was a banger, juicy slice of pineapple with the crispy lechon, super well balanced.
Their potato buns are soo soft, they're the perfect pairing with the meat choices available, & the ratio of meat/topping/sauce is absolutely flawless.
We had the Pandan Matcha & the Ube Matcha, i'd like to try an unflavoured matcha for purer comparisons sake, but this is definitely a solid matcha. The ube syrup sort of cancels out the flavour of the matcha in a weird way? I think ube would work better for the coffee than the matcha. Pandan Matcha was a fire combination though, heavily reccomend that. Not their fault though!
Now, the real star, the super crispy fries with the battered texture, with sinigang powder on it?? You guys are geniuses. I cant believe i had never thought of that.
Overall a lovely cafe! I live quite far but will definitely make the trip just for this!
Miam pour le burger on reviendrait pour ça c'est certain! Cependant, déçu du matcha au ube qui ne goûtait aucunement le ube. Je ne pense pas que ça vaut la peine de payer l'extra pour l'avoir.
I've been there multiple times. Their matcha is amazing, I've been on the hunt for a spot since moving to Brossard & it's safe to say I wouldn't go anywhere else.
Everything about this cafe was truly disappointing. We went in & the barista took so long to take our order because she was talking with her friends & ignoring the fact thag there was a line up of customers that were waiting for her to take our orders & plus instead of finishing up the drink that she made she was taking a picture of it & took her time instead of just serving it. Plus, the drink was really bad, first sip of ube matcha just tasted like a watered down milk & I couldn't even taste the matcha nor the ube.
i'm not sure if we just went during a bad time since most of our friends who's been here before has hyped it up for us, but the ube matcha we had was quite disappointing. No taste of the ube whatsoever & that matcha taste is barely there aswell. the pic is taken after we mixed the matcha.
Everything is perfect, would love to live there 24/7. The ube matcha is the best matcha I've ever had, BUT still dreaming of the blueberry (& earl grey (i think?)) seasonal flavor they had 🥰💕

Fantastic little coffee shop, we had the matcha & coffee latte the two were delicious we also tried the chicken sandwich such was really nice, would recommend !!
We love this cafe, really good coffee, breakfast sandwiches & great & friendly service :). Also good cold drinks (ube syrup, matcha etc). They often have specials (kamayan, wraps, burgers etc) & partner with locals (pop up yoga event, pastry features, floristry etc) so would recommend following them on IG!
Lovely little coffee shop!
The matcha was really good & so is the food!
Light music perfect place for studying or a quick work session between appointments!
I really want to like Café Kuya & help support local coffee shops, unfortunately my experience this past weekend was disappointing. First of all, having a working AC during the heat wave would have been nice, also the iced matcha latte that I ordered came with chunks of matcha & grainy clumps at the bottom. Very poor quality of matcha preparation, & the taste of it was just average.
The matcha & cappuccino had a decent taste, however the artwork wasn't very appealing. In addition, I had ordered a hamburger with chicken.The rest of the sandwich was great, despite the mushy bottom of the hamburger.
I've come here two times in a row this week & have enjoyed Cafe Kuya. It's a hidden gem with a good community of local business in the plaza. I have eaten their chicken sandwich & their lechon sandwich. Both were great, but the lechon sandwich was definitely my favorite. I also had their matcha late & regular latte, which were great. The place is a nice cozy environment with some StarWars memorabilia. The staff are friendly & hard working. Cafe Kuya brings some Filipino style to their menu & shares their culture with the community. I am looking forward to coming back to visit again!
