Info & Location
Café Paper Hill is a café-bistro offering a selection of certified coffees, local seasonal dishes you can eat in or take away, evening aperitifs, alongside books and newspapers so you can unplug and refuel. Located in a heritage building, this place has a storied past. The story we choose to celebrate is its early days as home to the first print houses and publishers of Montreal. It is only fitting that we’ve dedicated an entire wall to our curated collection of books and magazines. Come in to savour an espresso and get lost in a novel, or simply pop-in for a change of pace.

They offer a great selection of well-brewed coffee. The server was wonderful & took the time to explain each item to me, especially since I have an egg allergy. The café is clean & has a pleasant atmosphere.View more

I love good priced quality coffee & they definitely have this here! The beans are usually light roasted or medium roasted with focus on quality taste!
Service is always welcoming & warm.
In tough times like 2025 we need to support local businesses more than ever!
Montreal need more cafes like this that really focus on high end coffee & good service!
I have now come here over 10 times & every time is a pleasure, support this place they deserve it 👏🙏View more

Paperhill Café (Montreal) is a unique, wonderful & welcoming place with a great vibe, delicious food, alcohol offerings, great coffees, & lots of care & attention by the owner & staff. The owner is very dynamic, creative, & responsive which translates beautifully to providing a memorable cafe experience. Varied indoor & outdoor seating options & cool activities. A very special location - just what the neighborhood & city needed. We go daily. Highly recommended.View more

Finally got to try this place after seeing it promoted everywhere for months! I tried their vanilla iced latte. It wasn't too busy in the cafe around 2-3 PM, so I was able to find a place to sit (the upper level was mostly empty, but the ground level had a good amount of people working on their laptops). The latte was good, it tasted a bit like cereal milk more than vanilla & was on the milkier/weaker side, but I did still enjoy it! I'd like to come back to try their other iced drinks.View more

Magnifique endroit servant du très bon café ( le torréfacteur est Escape) & quelques plats pour les diners. Il y a une sélection de vins & bières aussi disponible pour les 5 à 7 & de l'espace pour travailler.View more

Un café pas comme les autres!
Dans un bel espace, avec une musique agréable, on peut prendre un café, un verre de vin, manger une bouchée, jaser, lire, étudier.
L'endroit parfait!View more

Cute spot à Montréal avec des employés super souriants.
Cependant, le chai & le matcha n'étaient pas à la hauteur de nos attentes :/
Puis, pas beaucoup de places, faut venir tôt ! Surtout avec les restrictions pour les ordi (très bonne initiative de la part du café)View more

Nice café, friendly staff & cozy/industrial style. A very nice touch, is that they split the seating area into workspace & laptop-free space. The staff also consequently applied these rules, where some people would still sit with their laptops & start working in'laptop-free' areas. They would kindly ask them to move to the workspace area.
For people who go there to only drink a coffee, have a bite & simply go for a talk, very nice touch.
We ordered:
• Latte, Cappuccino, Almond Cake, Chocolatine, Pancake & Bagel
• Latte had good flavour, foam was smooth, temperature maybe on the sight hot side, reason why the foam was dissolving a bit faster than I'm used to.
• Cappuccino was good
• Almond cake, was very tasty. Subtle almond taste, not too sweet & very light in general.
• Chocolatine, was a bit small & especially felt like it wasn't as fresh anymore as the crust itself was hard (not crunchy) & not as airy & light on the inside.
• Pancakes were a bit heavy, compact.
• Bagel was good, crunchy & soft, good flavours.View more

Café chaleureux & accueillant à deux pas du Centre-Ville. C'est un endroit confortable pour travailler durant le jour, mais aussi idéal pour y prendre une bouchée! Personnel agréable, beau design, bonne musique d'ambiance, présence de belles plantes (un plus 😉)... & le matcha latte est excellent! J'y retournerai pour sûr!View more

Je ne recommande pas pour un take-out du midi. 20 minutes d'attentes entre le paiement & la réception de mon sandwich. Le Tuna Melt est correcte pour le prix. Sans plus. On y va pour se poser pour un café.View more

Tellement contente d'avoir essayé ce nouveau café. Très bel emplacement, ambiance chaleureuse, la fermeture est à 19h (ils se font rares les cafés qui ferment aussi tard). Viennoiserie délicieuse, livres disponibles à la lecture, service vraiment exceptionnel. Bref, ce café est de loin ma meilleure trouvaille jusqu'à maintenant.View more
