Wow, the coffee here is delicious! It was so good to have this spot right next to our hotel. The staff were super friendly & took the time to explain the different types of espresso they offer. I got the overnight oats, which were good. The only downside is that their to-go packaging, especially for iced drinks, could be better. Overall, it's a really cool spot to grab coffee & get some work done.

Stumbled upon this cafe as I was heading to my destination. Thought nothing of it & had no expectations but when entering, I immediately enjoyed the chill & vibrant atmosphere. I ordered an iced mocha made with 10%, my usual go-to during the summer. The drink was done in about 4 minutes, I kid you not, it was THAT good. It wasn't too sweet, not overly chocolatey, & the espresso beans perfectly complimented the drink; literally everything was at the right ratio. I had to go back to let the barista know & also purchased a bag of the beans they had used. If ever I go back to Montréal, I will definitely be coming back to café léo.

edit: finally got my film rolls developed!

1-year post-review visit: went back Aug 6 for the same iced drink I bought in my original review, I was genuinely excited (I even purchased a different bag of beans to bring back home) until: a) I realized the barista taking orders punched in an Americano instead & b) the barista making drinks said they don't make mocha's with cream even after being told & acknowledging what my drink will be. Talk about embarrassing-the experience was a complete 180 as previously above. Even if the food looks great & the dining area is amazing, a café is only as good as the service provided & consistent drinks being made.

I've tried both the espresso & the matcha here, & they're truly great. I love the rotating exhibitions of local artists on the walls, it gives the space a unique & creative vibe. The energy is always positive, thanks to the friendly & welcoming staff. It's also a great spot if you're looking for a relaxed place to work or enjoy a coffee surrounded by art.

They took the time to extract the espresso according to their standards for my cortado... most don't. Their second'invite' roast changes very regularly, that too stands out from the rest of Montréal's many cafes! The indoor bike rack is an awesome addition.

Excellent espresso with a choice of different beans & decaf. The pastries are very good & the cinnamon roll particularly delicious. I highly recommend it for coffee nerds.
