Le Café Paper Hill est un café-buvette qui offre une gamme de cafés certifiés, une cuisine locale et de saison à manger sur place ou à emporter, un apéro le soir et des livres/journaux en tout temps. Situé dans un édifice patrimonial, le lieu a déjà eu mille vies. Dans celle-ci, nous rendons hommage à l’histoire du quartier, connu autrefois pour ses nombreuses imprimeries et maisons d’éditions. Un mur entier y est donc dédié à notre collection d'œuvres imprimées. Venez déguster un espresso ou un roman, ou tout simplement tourner la page sur votre journée.
Ce café lumineux est perçu comme un endroit agréable pour travailler et se détendre, avec une ambiance calme et une belle décoration. Le café et les boissons variées sont globalement loués pour leur qualité, du cappuccino au latte en passant par le matcha, et le pink latte fait parfois débat car il s agit surtout de betterave avec du lait. L'offre alimentaire est simple mais bien présentée et appréciée par certains, avec des viennoiseries, des sandwichs et des plats qui conviennent pour un passage rapide ou un déjeuner léger; le tout est souvent valorisé pour accompagner l'atmosphère conviviale et inspirante du lieu. Le service est globalement chaleureux, mais des expériences mixtes sur la gestion des commandes et sur les espaces destinés au travail ont été signalées, notamment sur les zones de coworking et les règles liées aux ordinateurs portables. L'endroit est souvent décrit comme un lieu fort pour le travail et la socialisation, avec des espaces intérieurs et extérieurs accessibles et des détails esthétiques qui renforcent la vibe, et il est fréquemment recommandé comme incontournable pour les amateurs de café et de détente dans le quartier. Dans l'ensemble, Café Paper Hill apparaît comme une adresse populaire pour le café de qualité et l'ambiance accueillante, même si certains aspects comme le rapport qualité prix ou la constance de certains drinks peuvent varier selon les visites.
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!

Love this addition to the neighborhood.
Great coffee, sandwiches, soups & salads.
Friendly service in beautifully renovated industrial space.
Great terrace(s) during spring & fall, warm & cosy space when it gets cold outside.
Checked out Café Paper Hill this afternoon & it was a solid pick. Went for the seasonal pumpkin spice latte (because fall mood) & it was really nice, warm, flavorful, not overly sweet. Since I was feeling a bit peckish, I grabbed a bagel with cream cheese & jam. Simple but spot-on. Both hit the mark, & the size/price balance is fair, which is always a win in Montreal.
The atmosphere is great! bright, cozy, & the kind of spot you could actually sit down with a laptop & study. Music's at a chill volume (thank you, not blasting), & the back terrace is a sweet bonus when the weather's nice.
Service was friendly & laid-back, & the place has that calm neighborhood café vibe without being pretentious. Overall, a good place to grab a quality coffee, snack, & maybe hang out for a bit. Definitely worth a visit.
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.

Quick stop for a coffee after a meal nearby. Love this coffee place with great friendly service from the staff. Worth your visit when in the neighborhood.
The vibe is immaculate
The coffee/ drinks are stellar
Best espresso martini I've ever had ( think delicious ice cap)
The staff are extremely nice & helpful
10/10
A true gem in the city
My favorite place in this neighborhood for coffee (love their café filtre), for a quick breakfast, for an hour or two of deep work on the computer, for a chat with a friend over a glass of wine on the terrace. Really everything you need if you live nearby!
Love this spot, I come here all the time to unwind. It's always calm, super clean, & just has a really chill vibe. They've got both a front & back terrasse, & the back one is honestly perfect when you just want some peace & quiet with your coffee.

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.
I love starting my mornings at this café! The coffee is well balanced, smooth, rich & never bitter. The staff & owner are kind & attentive, making every visit feel warm & welcoming. Grateful to have this is my neighborhood!
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.
This is my favourite place for coffee & matcha in Montreal😍. Cold brew tastes really like cold brew, not like iced americano, matcha tonic is one of the best in my life. Totally recommend!
