Open in 2008 steps, and just steps away from Concordia University, Café Myriade focuses on the quality of its coffee first and foremost. Its two founders have already proven their worth as baristas (specialist bartenders in coffee-based drinks).
Café Myriade is described as a tiny but punchy coffee spot with consistently good drinks, a warm and cozy vibe, and friendly baristas, praised for pastries and the inviting atmosphere but occasionally crowded or hard to sit in, with reviews noting occasional service hiccups, drink temperature issues, and a few language friction moments, while the location near Concordia and the quality of local roasts and a high end espresso machine are frequently highlighted positives.
Everytime, no matter which barista, the cortado they serve is the same. I never have to worry about if this time will be good or not ...unlike many of the coffee shops in Montreal. It's consistent. Coffee never tastes bad here. It's also 4$ here.
I've tried other Myriade in Plateau, Atwater, Club Monaco... but it isn't the same there. This one on Mackay is so far the best in my opinion. Thank you.
My daily coffee shop for every day that I spent in Montreal. Coffee was consistently delicious & the baristas were always friendly. The chocolatine was my favorite. The space was really cute & cozy, but it's kind of hard to find a table when it's full & snowy. Nonetheless I loved Cafe Myriade.

A good local coffee shop. The coffee itself was fine, good but not outstanding. The pastries were nice though a touch dry. Overall if you're in the area it's a decent choice.
Overall, one of the best coffee shops in Montreal. Great service, coffee, & selection. A bit on the smaller size, so on busy days, you might think about getting it to go.
This cafe is tiny but packs an enormous punch for its size! My latte was the best latte I have had in Montreal. The croissant was excellent & was one of several delicious looking pastry selections. The baristas are courteous & efficient. There's seating outside as well. Pricing? Above the famous Canadian coffee shop but below that expensive American place. In any case, I prefer to patronise a local business than a big chain.

Stayed in Montreal for a couple nights & this coffee shop quickly become the morning stop. Their coffee is great & the vegan muffins are amazing. The shop itself is pretty cozy & has great service
This has been my go to coffee shop since it opened-10 years ago now?? AC fixed. It's a tiny shop, & not well laid out. Much of the cafe IS the line-up. Love to see a reno here to maximize seating. Otherwise, love it.
Cute & convenient coffee shop! They served us pretty quickly, but I think they forgot about the first people in our group who ordered & we had to remind them to make the drinks.
Coffee is just so good.... I have been to all of the boutique high end coffee shops, & this tops them for sure. Bakery items need improvement, can't tell if it was gluten free maybe, but not good... but the coffee makes up for it by far.

A wonderful bustling coffee shop right by the Concordia campus. Offers delicious coffee & baked goods & always has the high quality Myriade is known for around the city. Really love this location & has become a regular stop when in the area.
