Currently solo traveling throughout Montreal & I loved this spot. I decided to stray away from my itinerary & try this cafe out & I am so glad I did.

Upon walking in, the team (Marco & Rocco) were immediately so welcoming & kind, I felt comfortable right away.

I ordered the pistachio donut & matcha latte w/ almond milk & I'd recommend both. The donut was delicious with the perfect amount of pistachio filling & just the right amount of sweetness. The matcha was also really good.

The atmosphere is chill & cozy, & it's such a good third space whether you're coming alone or with friends. The cafe feels family owned!
Highly recommend.
