Review Summary

Reviews describe Café Léo as a cozy, relaxed, and welcoming space with a warm vibe that invites long visits for work or study. The coffee and drinks receive frequent praise, from rich espresso builds to matcha and chai lattes, and the pastries and croissants, including options for gluten free, are often highlighted as standout treats, though some reviewers warn about cross contamination or limited gluten free choices. The atmosphere is described as bright, stylish, and conducive to concentration, with artful decor, rotating exhibitions, and plenty of seating that can accommodate individuals or groups. Staff are generally praised for friendliness and helpfulness, even when service varies by moment, and the location near the university is noted as convenient for students and travelers alike. Overall, Café Léo comes across as a popular, aesthetically pleasing place to sip well made drinks, enjoy a pastry, and get work done, while a few comments point to a desire for a larger food menu and more consistent service.

A great place for a Saturday café date! I had a hot chocolate & a corn-feta-jalapeno pizza that was super tasty & my girlfriend had an iced lavender soy latte + chocolate hazelnut chocolatine (both of which she really enjoyed). The staff was friendly & the café was very spacious. Definitely recommend!

The atmosphere was good. It's decorated well. Good for working space. We ordered 2 iced latte, cookie & kouign amann, all for 23$. This morning i was so happy & want to get the coffee from this place until i come in, no smiling, i ordered waiting for the coffee, At first i was smiling the staff but no smile back at all. i took photos to give a review but then when i record the pouring coffee in the cup part as attached without people face at all. I think the bartender guy feel like i took his photo, & feel offended, he told me like next time if u want to record let other people know first, & no smiling...i was like what, i didnt even have ur face in my video. I understand ur privacy & i always respect that & if i want the people in my video i will always ask first & didnt even ask me if i took ur face. There is other way to tell people in a nicer way & with the service mind. I know u might feel offended & i feel that too. Also, the girl who took my order come to support the bartender saying that i should let them know as they got people took photos of their face all the time. I also shows the video to them but i still get the same answer. I got you & i wont come back to this place again.

My favorite café so far! The drinks are super good & I love the'latte créatif' flavors that change every month, but are always delicious! The pastries are fine, they're worth buying the next day with the discount. I also love the café's decoration & atmosphere. The playlist is great for studying & there are a lot of tables & places to sit with multiple power outlets. The art exhibitions are always interesting to see as well. It's also very close to Berri-UQAM which is super convenient. It gets pretty busy, so I recommend going on'off hours' like early in the morning on in the afternoon.

Beau grand café lumineux. Les lattes sont très réussis & je me suis régalé de leurs sandwichs déjeuners.

Croissant au fromage, biscuit au chocolat blanc & matcha latté très bons. Par contre, il ne restait pas grand choix de viennoiseries à mon arrivée à quatre heures de la fermeture.
