Review Summary

Reviews of Café Moonday depict a cozy, charming café with a popular candle making workshop that draws friends and families. Guests praise the warm, relaxed vibe, a wide range of fragrances, and the satisfaction of creating a personalized candle to take home. The experience is described as engaging and social, with additional fun elements like board games during waiting times and a café menu of coffee and pastries. Staff are frequently noted as friendly, patient, and helpful, guiding participants through the process, though some comments point to occasional rushed explanations or less warm service. Pricing is mentioned as a bit high for the duration, but many feel the quality and novelty justify it and would return or recommend for dates or outings. A few reviews flag cleanliness or organizational hiccups and wish for better table service or clearer directions, but these are outweighed by the positive sentiment. Overall, Café Moonday is seen as a charming, instagrammable concept that provides a relaxing, creative escape and a memorable keepsake.

The experience was great, loved choosing the scents & the card games while we waited for our candles to be ready. A really fun date. There wasn't a large variety of food but what we ate was delicious! Recommend this highly to small groups of friends, couples & dates for chill activities

Went there for the first time & gotta say my friend & I liked our experience. Our drinks were really good & it was nice to have some games to play while we were waiting for our candles to dry. I wish there was an orange scent to put in my candle but still liked what I got in the end. I settled for banana & strawberry scent.

We had a lovely time creating our own candles. No particular occasion, just for the fun - & the experience.

The staff was very friendly, & explained everything clearly & patiently. We had a very pleasant & soothing moment selecting scents & decorations & it was reqarding going home with a unique creation.

Participants to the candle-making workshop get further discount on food, beverages & other products so we splurged on other scented candles, that all smelled delicious.

I recently booked a spot at Cafe Moonday's candle-making class ($39.95), & it turned out to be the perfect way to spend a rainy spring afternoon in Montreal. While the dreary weather outside could've easily made the day feel bleak, the warm, cozy atmosphere of the cafe immediately made me feel at ease. It was exactly what I needed to shake off the chill & try something new.

Stay tuned for my video review on TikTok (@Foxy.appetite) & Instagram (@Foxyappetite)!

The Class:

The candle-making experience was wonderfully intimate & personalized. Each group had its own small table, making it an ideal choice for a date or a group of friends. This setup created a cozy, laid-back vibe that felt just right. The instructors were friendly & incredibly helpful, offering guidance when needed while giving us the freedom to experiment & craft our own unique candles. They walked us through the entire process step-by-step, from selecting up to three fragrance oils to blending them at the perfect temperature before pouring the wax into the jar.

One of the things I really appreciated was that the instructors took care of heating the wax for us, so we could focus on the fun part-mixing our chosen scents. I had a blast experimenting with different combinations & ended up choosing clean cotton, magnolia, & grapefruit. The result? A beautiful candle with a fresh, balanced scent that felt truly personal, & it smells absolutely amazing. I decided to call it'Fresh Bloom.'

Final Thoughts:

Cafe Moonday's candle-making class is an exceptional way to spend a few hours in Montreal, whether you're a local or just visiting. It offers a creative & relaxing escape, where you can unwind while learning something new. If you're looking for a fun, hands-on experience, I highly recommend this class. While waiting for our candles to cool, I enjoyed a delicious latte & a slice of banana bread, & the cafe even had games & puzzles to pass the time-an unexpected but charming touch!

By the end of the class, I walked away not only with a beautifully crafted candle but also with a newfound appreciation for the art of candle-making. It was the perfect way to spend a peaceful, creative afternoon. Whether you're looking to try something new or simply want to relax in a cozy setting, this class is a must-try in Montreal!
