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.
Dans l'ensemble, Café Paper Hill est perçu comme un espace lumineux et accueillant, avec un excellent café, des pâtisseries et un service attentif. De nombreux avis louent l'ambiance calme et propice au travail, avec des sièges confortables, une bonne lumière et un personnel sympathique. Plusieurs avis mentionnent une forte configuration coworking et une terrasse arrière, bien que certains trouvent l'endroit bondé et déplorent des règles concernant les ordinateurs portables qui limitent l'espace. Bien que le menu et la qualité des boissons soient appréciés, quelques commentaires signalent une exécution variable des boissons, notamment le pink latte ou le matcha, et des tarifs parfois élevés par rapport à la valeur. Beaucoup soulignent aussi le décor soigné et l'esprit communautaire qui font de Café Paper Hill un lieu de quartier pratique pour le café et le travail occasionnel.
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.
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.

Café charmant juste à côté du palais des congrès. Peu achalandé en avant-midi, un endroit idéal pour travailler sur son laptop le matin en dégustant un café préparer avec soin. Une terrasse extérieure est aussi accessible à ceux qui le désirent. Toutefois, c'est une zone sans ordinateur, donc parfaite pour prendre un moment calme entre amis.
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 started coming here regularly & often spent a decent amount over lunch, sometimes $30 to $40, while working outside for an hour or two. Every time I visited, other professionals seemed to be doing the same. I was recently told laptops aren't allowed outdoors, even though the space was mostly empty. The owner mentioned they're building a separate area for that, but in the meantime, it feels like a policy that pushes away loyal customers who just want to enjoy the outdoor space while working for a short time. Laptop batteries don't last all day - no one's camping out. Policies like this can really undercut the kind of community that keeps a place going.
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.

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 :)
This place has really phenomenal coffee - it's honestly the only thing I would go here for. The lattes are great, the espresso is fantastic. I got the pink latte too, which I think they're known for, but BE WARNED - it is legit just beetroot & milk. So if you don't like milky-beetroot, don't get it. I'm sure some people like it. Also, the food is fairly mediocre. If you are coming here to work, BE AWARE that I believe they changed their designated laptop spots, as there are only around 6 places total. There used to be a large table the first time I went, but I was told there cannot be laptops on it anymore....
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.
