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).
Across reviews, Café Myriade is described as a beloved Montreal spot for dependable coffee and a warm, cozy vibe. The drinks are consistently delicious, with notes of latte, mocha, chai and matcha and strong local roasts highlighted, while pastries such as croissants and muffins are frequently praised. The baristas are usually friendly and helpful, with recommendations that elevate the visit, though some readers note the cafe can feel crowded and small, especially on busy mornings or snowy days. The local neighborhood presence stands out, and staff are often described as welcoming, making regulars feel at home. A few critiques appear, including moments of rushed or less friendly service, language friction for francophone customers, limited or no wifi, and the challenge of seating when the space is full. Overall, Café Myriade emerges as one of the top coffee spots in Montreal, valued for quality drinks, tasty pastries, and a lively, student-friendly atmosphere.
Nice little Eatery with great Coffee & breakfast experience. Staff is very courteous & atmosphere is very open & friendly. Definitely a good place to stop before you hop.

This cafe is great for people that finish the study in the Concordia University, office workers or just want to relax at the cafe. Even though it's located in the middle of the downtown & besides the Concordia University, but the coffee quality is good. The Latte is good & taste not burn. I tried their pastry sometimes, it's okay, but i would i would say it's better than the big chain cafe that sells pastries too. In the winter, this place will get smaller & less seats available, but in summer, there's plenty of seats available.
Outstanding coffee, very friendly staff, great pastries, amazing prices, nice space with indoor & outdoor seating available. It doesn't get much better than this.
5/23/17 - Damn good soy double mocha & raspberry pistachio financier. Would definitely go back to this charming little cafe for pastry & espresso drink. Update 4/7/24 - I had been eagerly looking forward to revisiting this place post COVID, now the vegan oat latte is basically just hot burnt water, The lack of menu is also a little challenging to explore offerings, Even if the offerings are pretty standard. Good non-dairy milk options, the drink itself just wasn't good.
The map kept saying it's not busy, but this place fills up fast. So, I got lucky & was able to nab a seat, but with a school nearby, this place is constantly bustling with students. My drink & pastry were great. Glad I stopped in for a spell.
I really love the poetic vibes of this cafe. They don't have internet so it forces you to disconnect & enjoy. The scones are good but not the best I've ever had. The cappuccino was yummy & the perfect size in my opinion. I also love this spot in the summer as they have a nice big patio so it's great for a meetup with old friends.

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.
For a warm & cozy place to socialize in small groups, this cafe is a good option. There are small tables inside & on the terrace, in good weather. It is less ideal as a workspace as the chairs are wooden & stiff with few power outlets available. The ambiance is comfortable & clean. Staff were friendly, upbeat, & efficient. The coffee menu is simple but has all the staples. The double espresso definitely did the trick & served in a super cute tiny takeaway cup. There are also various pastries as snacks, such as muffins, all of which appeared to be vegetarian.
On of my favorite place to grab a coffee in Montreal!! The best cappuccino, great atmosphere & always very helpful staff! This location is the best ;) I tried the others too but I it wasn't the same ... So every time when I wanted to celebrate & treat myself with something special while staying in MTL I went there, sooooo worth it.
