This beautiful cafe is a top notch place.
When you walk into the door the atmosphere is very warm, it feels very cozy.
Starting with the food, I would say anything
I've tried is delicious.
Also their coffee is one of the best you can find in Montreal .

My first visit at this cafe.
Wanted to relax with a coffee before I went for diner close by. A nice & young lady greeted me with a smile even if she was close to end her day. Took a muffin home & had a great Americano decaffeinated. Both were very good. Will be back.

After two separate trips to café le den, I can confidently say they are consistent on every aspect: great drinks & warm welcome. Our first visit was quite memorable, & I was very excited to go back. On our first visit, we tried the ube matcha & their iced'cream latte' as well as a couple sandwiches. The drinks were absolutely delicious & the sandwiches were generous & fresh. we've now just tried their new pistachio latte & the marron (chestnut) matcha which were both phenomenal! This beats sooooo many coffee shops :)
I go here almost every morning, their peanut latte is one of a kind, matcha is also very good! Their chicken salad sandwich is probably one of my fave in the city & the staff is super friendly & welcoming! One of my fave coffee shops in the city hands down.
J'ai adoré! L'expérience était incroyable, le service était rapide, le personnel était amicale & le propriétaire était sympathique. Le café lui même était délicieux & venait dans des tasses de couleur très mignonnes! Je suis allée hier & je veux déjà y retourner! Les lumières d'un teint oranges donnait une ambiance très chaleureuse & accueillante, on oubliait complètement qu'il faisait -10 dehors!

A nice, quaint café in the neighborhood-perfect for catching up with friends or grabbing a quick lunch. We ordered the cream latte & the strawberry matcha latte. The coffee & matcha were both high quality. Our only critique is that the strawberry syrup was a bit too sweet when the matcha was served hot, which slightly overpowered the matcha. Other than that, we had a great experience & appreciated the friendly service.
We've been to this place on multiple occasions in the afternoons. Sometimes it could be crowded packed with students & retired couples. The selections of sandwich are enormous, & they come with a small salad, & your choice of bread, offering great flexibility with your favourite type of bread. Once, by mistake they forgot to include avocado in the sandwich, but they genuinely apologised & provided back us the missing items on a separate plate. Compliment on their service & courtesy. Continuous support for local cafés.
I can honestly say this is one of the best cafés on the West Island. I've been to tons of coffee shops, & this place really stands out. The coffee is great, the atmosphere is cozy, & the service is always friendly. Their vegan avocado sandwich is super tasty, fresh & I also loved the Earl Grey scone, the chicken panini, & the pulled pork sandwich. Everything I've tried so far has been delicious!
Cafe Le Den has become my go-to place in the neighborhood. The coffee is always freshly made, & the quality really stands out. What I also love is that the food is just as good - it's honestly rare to find a café that gets both right, but this place delivers every time.
The owner & staff are genuinely warm & welcoming. There's a cozy, home-like feeling as soon as you walk in, & it's the kind of atmosphere that keeps you coming back without even thinking about it.
If you want great coffee, great food, & a place that simply feels good to be in, this café is an easy recommendation.
I've visited this café several times because it's a comfortable & family-friendly place to go with my kids.
The staff are always kind & welcoming, & my children love coming here every time.
The sandwich with fresh avocado & tomato is absolutely amazing!
It goes perfectly with a warm matcha latte - highly recommended! ☕🥑🍅
All the staff were so kind & welcoming.
The sandwich & ube latte were absolutely delicious!
We had such a lovely time with our family in the cozy atmosphere.
Highly recommended! 💜
