Beautiful, bright place.
I hope the art that used to be on the walls will come back. It was such a beautiful touch.

Fyi, It's very echo, so cozy, but not ideal for personal convo with friends...unless there's a lot of people to buffer your convo 😏

Artistic ambiance, two floors, not very big but it's a nice place to take your laptop , sip your coffee & do your works. At the second floor there is a table with 6 chairs.

Cette structure architecturale a attiré mon attention, & au-dessus de la fenêtre, une image qui semblait faite de mosaïque… Quelle originalité ! me suis-je dit.

Cela m'a amené à découvrir un peu leur menu, & pourquoi pas…

& me voici, profitant non seulement d'un moment agréable, mais aussi d'une soupe du jour accompagnée de leur incomparable pain artisanal.

Merci pour votre excellent service client !

Cafe Lali is an absolute gem! From the moment we walked in, Isabelle & Anna-Marie made us feel so welcome with their warm & genuine hospitality. They truly go above & beyond to ensure every guest feels at home. The cafe itself is adorable-such a cute & artsy vibe that's perfect for relaxing or catching up with friends. The coffee is excellent, easily some of the best we've had, & the location couldn't be more convenient. If you're looking for a cozy spot with amazing service & great coffee, Cafe Lali is a must-visit. Isabelle & Anna-Marie are the heart & soul of this place, & they've created something truly special. Highly recommend!

Cute coffee shop with art on the walls. The staff is super friendly & absolutely deserves 5 stars for their service. The coffee is good, though not particularly strong-just a bit mild for our taste. The croissant was also a bit dry, too. They have different types of milk for your coffee.

Nice, small cafe with lots of paintings & art pieces displayed like a small gallery. The cafe is really small. There is an upstairs but again really small. The coffee is good here though & the service is awesome. Also, they make their own chai concentrate in house. It's a bit watery for me & not as intense as I like my chai but it's an option for those that love chai as much as I do.
