I was looking for something to pass the time before an appointment in the area, & came across this cozy little place. The staff was warm & kind, & the atmosphere comfortable & relaxing. I got a flan cake & an oat milk latte, both of which were delicious & hit the spot. I was able to unwind & read a few chapters of my book while sipping my coffee, it was lovely. Definitely a gem!

Coffee culture in Montreal is a serious ritual, but this place does not make it feel complicated. Very relaxed environment, owners working on a Sunday morning doing it all for the love of coffee & community. Hospitable service.

Honestly, the best café in the neighborhood. It's always a pleasure going there. Owners & staff are very nice. Great coffee & baked goods with Breton flavours.
I never know where to go when they close on Mondays.

Recommendations: If you have a sweet tooth, try the mocha, the Breton latte, made with their homemade caramel, & any of the cakes of the moment.

(P.S. for the owners: Please bring back the old matcha 😆)
