The coffee is widely praised, with lattes, flat whites and cappuccinos often highlighted as well made and reasonably priced, and desserts such as carrot cake receive compliments. The atmosphere tends to be relaxed and not too noisy, though a few visits feel crowded or the space becomes stuffy when busy, and music can be a bit loud.

Overall it comes across as a popular, dependable stop that many visitors say they would return to.
Super café, j'ai passé un moment très agréable la vue est magnifique. La barista était adorable & a eu la patience de m'expliquer les cafés lol ! Je recommande & j'y retournerai
I came to enjoy a latte & savoury scone (feta & spinach scone) & yap with my bestie; listen, it was great! There are many seats, big tables to work from & the staff offers a great service. Will return soon!
Spent an afternoon at the café while enjoying their flat white coffee with an extra shot of espresso. Ambiance was great & not too noisy, great enough to relax & chat with a few friends. The barista was very friendly & professional from the way he prepared our drinks. I would like to return there if I am around that neighbourhood again.

Très déçu de mon expérience dans ce café. Le service à la clientèle était médiocre : lorsque j'ai demandé à la préposée au comptoir de chauffer mon croissant, elle m'a simplement répondu qu'elle ne pouvait pas le faire, elle m'a dit c'est le croissant du jour, sans aucune explication ni effort pour aider.
J'ai eu l'impression que l'apparence de ma conjointe semblait déranger, ce qui a rendu l'accueil encore plus désagréable.
Bref, une expérience très négative. Je n'y retournerai plus.

Server seemed like she was bossing around her colleague, & was a bit rude to customers. Too many people in a claustrophobic space makes it not ideal for studying. Drink I got was okay but I'd choose another café.
While on holiday in Montreal visiting family, & near my sister's house, we discovered this fabulous coffee shop. Great flat whites that were just perfect & the best & lightest carrot cake I have ever eaten ( the moistest).
Will definitely go back again next time 👍🙏
