Great coffee & matcha, but the staffing situation really needs to be addressed. The café consistently seems to have only one person working, handling both the register & making all the drinks. This is especially frustrating on a busy Saturday morning, when the wait for a single coffee can easily exceed 15 minutes.

The quality is great, but the experience suffers because of the unreasonable wait times. They would really benefit from hiring an additional staff member during busy hours. it's becoming unbearable to wait that long for a coffee.

Le lieu est charmant & il est agréable de se promener autour. Par contre, la torréfaction du café donne un goût acidulé & beaucoup trop fade (j'ai réussi à prendre 2 gorgées). L'endroit est selon moi vraiment overreated & overpriced (6,25$ le petit pain banane…). Il n'y avait aucun choix de viennoiseries, que des cookies qu'on a trouvé lourd & gras.

Everytime I'm in the area I stop for matcha or coffee.
Many times the cashier will be inside & I have to wait for several minutes to be noticed.
Then we take the order, & the service is usually cold & rushed.
The drinks are a bit overpriced for the what you get. I tried there Pina colada matcha & the syrups were overpowering the matcha taste that tastes very watery. I wasn't a big fan with their coffee too.
It's a cute neighborhood cafe that gives Cali vibes but I wish they could improve the drinks & the service.

Café Parka is a little gem in the heart of TMR worth stopping into for a wide variety of drinks & the bonus of sandwiches & pasteries available! Yum! 🤩
Keep in mind, the shop is tiny, but they do have a small seating area indoors (3-4 stools) & a small seating area outside if you plan on lingering.

Been going to Café Parka all summer & honestly the coffee is just so good every time. Melody, Emily & Leah are the best, always so warm & welcoming. Love grabbing a seat on the patio by the park on a sunny afternoon. My favorite spot in TMR right now!

Cafe Parka in Mont Royal is a brilliant spot with a stunning minimalist aesthetic. The bright & airy interior design makes it an incredibly pleasant place to sit & enjoy a morning coffee. Their espresso is expertly pulled, offering a perfectly balanced & robust flavor. The selection of fresh pastries is also fantastic, especially their buttery croissants. The baristas are super friendly & clearly passionate about delivering a top tier coffee experience.

Very small cafe, decent coffee & snacks (red velvet cookie was great!). Very few seats inside, but has some patio seats facing the park. Sadly it was raining when i visited.

Very nice minimalist café with a calm & cozy atmosphere. The coffee was excellent & the matcha was really good as well. Everything felt high quality & thoughtfully made. Will definitely be back.

TMR has been needing this for awhile! My only wish would be bigger for the winter time :) Great decor, good coffee & nice service.
Update with a suggestion: I ordered a mocha & it had a very sugary syrupy taste (it was already closed so I couldn't go back to get it remade); may I suggest using a real cacao powder mix of some kind? I think for a cafe with this price point it is worth it.
