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.

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!

Nous avons réalisé l'activité de confection de bougie cette après midi.
L'activité est géniale, les odeurs sont diverses & variées.
Les petits jeux d'attente sont vraiment appréciables.
Les charms sont vraiment cool.
Le personnel est adorable & mention spéciale pour le chocolat chaud.

Je donnerai 7/10. L'activité est plaisante & différente à faire avec des amies, mais pour plus de 50$ par personne, je m'attendais à plus. La création prend au total max 15 minutes, mais il y a 45 minutes d'attente que la cire durcisse. On trouvait qu'il manquait de directions, on se fait diriger à notre table & ensuite on se fait dire de lire les instructions au mur. Pour la partie café, les choix sont très limités (mais on a aimé ce qu'on a choisi. Pas vraiment un endroit pour manger, il y a 3 sortes de biscuit, c'est tout). Overall, on s'est quand même amusées mais je n'y retournais pas.

Super expérience ! Les pâtisseries & cookies étaient super bon & les boissons faites par les Baristas aussi !! L'expérience en soit est vraiment cool, & maintenant j'ai une chandelle à mon image!!

Belle expérience, mais une activité quand même chère. C'est le fun de pouvoir choisir & faire des mélanges de senteur. Aussi, les jeux de société & le café furent plaisants durant le temps d'attente. Par contre, j'ai l'impression que la chandelle était déjà trop figée quand on me l'a redonnée pour que les décorations à placer dessus tiennent en place. Perso je trouve que la chandelle ne sent pas très fort une fois allumée. À essayer 1 fois selon moi! il y avait seulement 2 autres tables quand je suis allée un lundi!

(Update; Merci d'avoir pris le temps de répondre c'est très apprécié!) Je vais raccourcir mon commentaire pour aller plus droit au but; pour les points positifs: -Note à l'animatrice de l'atelier, une petite française (?) blonde foncée, assez grande, (je ne sais pas son prénom) qui était un véritable rayon de soleil! service exemplaire:) merci à elle!!) -Concept sympa, joli lieu Points négatifs: -A part à l'animatrice évoquée plus haut, deuxième fois que je viens, & deuxième constat, on a l'impression que personne n'a envie de travailler ici/qu'on dérange. Pas de sourire pdt 2h (de la personne au comptoir au responsable qui nous tasse trois fois pour partir après l'atelier) -Ambiance peu chaleureuse, & nourriture/café pas particulièrement bons.. Malheureusement nous ne reviendrons pas. Mais espérons de l'amélioration puisque le concept de base etait sympa… dommage!
