Review Summary

Café Noya is a popular downtown destination known for its cozy atmosphere and Japanese comfort food, particularly its flavorful udon dishes, variety of onigiri, and high quality matcha beverages. Many visitors appreciate the welcoming vibe and fresh, well presented meals that make it a favorite spot for studying or a casual lunch. While the restaurant receives significant praise for its delicious offerings and friendly staff, some patrons have noted concerns regarding inconsistent service speeds, occasionally small portion sizes relative to the price, and variability in flavor profiles for certain dishes.

🍜 The beef udon was SO GOOD - LOVED the broth -well-balanced broth that complemented the noodles. The noodles were also cooked perfectly (not under cooked nor over cooked). The freshly baked matcha cookies were soft, fresh, & not too sweet.

The people who work & serve there are also super nice -adding to the welcoming café vibes.

I LOVE Café Noya. As you can tell by my pictures, I come here quite often & I've eaten a lot of items here & love all of it. The food here is so satisfying: hearty, tasty & yet not too fatty. Perfect balance as Japanese food always achieves.

The chicken katsu onigiri is seriously addicting (I could eat A LOT of those). You also can't go wrong with the creamy miso udon. Honestly, everything they have tastes fantastic. My go-to, though? Spicy chicken rice with extra beef. I could eat that every day (& I almost do lol).

The location is also very convenient if you take public transportation as it's right next to Peel metro.

I'm telling ya'll, Café Noya is a gem. I love the food, I love the staff. It's my favourite place to eat at after work.

Discovered the cafe & tried the mango matcha, it was delicious so I decided to come back! Sadly the second time I ordered they did my order completely wrong :( I gave it a second chance since I really liked the food (despite not being what I asked for) & this time everything was perfect & tasty, the udon creamy mushrooms it's delicious as well as their mochis !!

Nous sommes passés par hasard devant le café, & la vitrine nous a interpellée. Étant déjà fan de cuisine japonaise, j'étais ravie de le trouver! Quelques places assises en dedans, & pendant l'été, une terrasse mignonne est accessible à l'extérieur. Les Onigiris étaient généreux & délicieux. & mes amis ont essayé le curry & le bol de boeuf épicé, & c'était sincèrement très bon. & pour couronner le tout, malgré que l'équipe était légitimement débordée, nous avons reçu un service impeccable. Je recommande cet endroit & j'y retournerais sans hésitation!

My friend & I often go here & we always get an udon & rice bowl. It has consistently been a good meal to get at a decent price after my classes. The girl who served me was incredibly nice. To my surprise, despite being a cafe, they even served the food to my table outside on the terrace.

Had such a great experience at Café Noya in Montreal. The atmosphere was super cozy, the food was fresh & comforting, & the matcha drinks were amazing. Our female server was also incredibly sweet & attentive, which made the whole experience even better. You can really tell the staff care about creating a welcoming vibe. Definitely a spot I'd come back to whenever I'm in Montreal!

Café Noya on Peel is quickly becoming one of my favorite spots! The mango matcha & strawberry drinks are the best so far. Super refreshing & perfectly balanced.

The crème brûlée & the matcha & pistachio cheesecake are absolutely out of this world. You can really taste the quality in everything they make.

On top of that, the staff are incredibly friendly & welcoming, which makes the whole experience even better. Definitely worth checking out!
