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.
The space looks well curated & has a great vibe. I went in to try their iced blueberry matcha & banana bread latte. First, I had to repeat my request a few times to the girl behind the counter. I'm a pretty loud person & the music wasn't loud at all for her not to hear me. Then when I got my order & walked out, I realized even though I ordered it iced, it was not. So I went back in to get that fixed. Left & walked down the block. I should've tried a sip of both the drinks before this point but one would imagine they would get their order. The specialty latte was just a regular latte with no added flavor & the iced matcha was just that. An iced matcha. No blueberry, no banana bread syrup. Honestly disappointed because I was very much looking forward to trying this space from a recent video I saw on tiktok. I think the owner stood for something great, the space looks amazing but the execution on the drinks, poor.
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

Your barista leaves her station to play with a dog, which isn't even allowed indoors, only to go back behind the counter without washing her hands, to rush back with our plate only to blame the slow kitchen? Couldn't have asked for a worse first impression. But the bus boy was great, so bonus points for him. Salad & drinks were also pretty good.
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.
I had such a great time here! Definitely elevated my Montreal stay. Everything was great! Can't see myself becoming a regular though.
I had a vegetarian mushroom toast & pink latte. I don't think there's any caffeine in the drink but it is very tasty, refreshing & just sweet enough. I'm so relieved that it's not too sweet. Not sure if I'd get it again (other than for aesthetics) but even if I did it would taste like a good sweet treat. The toast is also very tasty but nothing special enough where you wouldn't be able to make one yourself. I still enjoyed it & I'd recommend coming here to try it at least once.
We came here to study for a few hours one afternoon, it's a great atmosphere & fairly quiet, the drinks are good but maybe on the pricey side. I like that they don't allow laptops 12-1pm & after 5pm, gives you time to take a break from studying! Would recommend :)

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.
• 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.
