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.

Review Summary

Reviews of Café Paper Hill describe a bright, airy and stylish cafe that many visit for studying, working or meeting friends, thanks to ample seating, a distinct front and back terrace, calm ambiance, books and art, and friendly service. Coffee quality is a frequent strength with well balanced espresso, cappuccino and a notably good matcha, while some patrons report that certain iced drinks or the pink latte can be disappointing and note that it is beetroot with milk. Food options like mushroom toast, bagels, croissants, soups and salads are often praised, with some standouts such as egg salad and tuna melt, though a few reviews call pastries or some bites average. Service is generally described as warm and helpful, though a minority mention inconsistent or cold service and higher prices. The space is popular for working, with a clear split between work and laptop free areas, and some frustration around laptop restrictions or crowded times. Overall Café Paper Hill is seen as a gem for coffee lovers and a versatile neighborhood hub offering good drinks and solid bites in a thoughtfully designed setting that encourages focus or socializing.

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!

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.
