Was very disappointed with this coffee shop especially compared with other ones. Main Entrance doesn't work. The croissant was not fresh, the cappuccino wasn't great. There was only a large table where you can sit with a laptop. Not comfortable at all.

Very cute co-working space/café that has a very extensive brunch/lunch menu, although a little on the pricier side. I appreciate the the range of vegetarian & vegan options. The vibe is very pleasant with books & board games available & lots of seating! The co-working & non co-working space are clearly demarcated. The coffee quality is very good as well. I tried the pistachio croissant & the mushroom toast. The latter is very tasty & highly recommended. The pistachio croissant filling was excellent but wish the croissant was more fluffy & flaky. Would recommend this café whenever you're in Old Montréal!

I had a latte & a pistachio croissant that was delicious. Had a drip coffee after my latte was finished & the drip coffee was acidic & not my taste.

I went to this cafe where a lot of people were working. I bought a juice then a chocolate croissant, then a coffee. I was getting work done, so I bought a salad. About 20% into my salad someone came to tell me to move because I was in an area not for laptops. I tried to move but since everyone had to move at once there was no comfortable place left. I asked them to pack the lunch & went to eat it at home. Needless to say, I will not go back. I understand that you don't want to have people spending 5$ on a coffee take the space of other clients, but I spent 42$ only to be pretty much kicked out half meal. They delivered 3 times to my table & said nothing until I had spent on the biggest item. NOT IMPRESSED.

I somehow paid $14.50 (including tip & tax) for an iced latte & a croissant. Ordered an iced latte & it was so sweet, I didn't ask for a vanilla latte or even to have any sweetener added. They kept opening the window & doors even though it was below 10C & customers got up themselves to close the doors since it was so cold inside. It's very pretty & a great place to study, but not worth the money
