Overall Café Passion attracts visitors with a cozy, classic French style and a welcoming vibe, serving breakfast, brunch, lunch and dinner with fresh, well prepared dishes and an attractive decor. The atmosphere is described as warm and inviting, making it a good spot to relax, work or catch up with friends, and the staff is frequently praised for friendliness and attentive service, though a few visits note occasional missteps such as language misunderstandings, uneven attention, or a lack of follow up. Menu items receive strong praise for croque monsieur and Benedicts, good coffee and a satisfying lunch, while some reviews flag issues such as paninis that feel rushed, overcooked eggs, cold potatoes or bread that is not up to expectations. Jazz on the terrace and a morning ambiance are highlights for many, and the terrace is described as European style with a lively yet calm vibe; yet cleanliness concerns have been raised on some trips with flies in the dining area or restrooms not being kept up. Overall Café Passion is considered a Saint Lambert staple by many, offering a pleasant, versatile spot that shines on some days while showing occasional misses on others.
This place used to be a favourite of ours until we moved away for 11 years, today it did not let us down! Chèvre salad & Cappuccino for each of us, & met every bit of our expectations. This place is special in its charm & character, being in the center of Saint Lamberts downtown core it's obvious the clientele is favoured amongst locals! Thank You Cafe Passion!
Je suis étonné que ce resto ait une cote de 4.0 en ce moment, en tout cas nous on a adoré l'endroit, le café, notre repas & le service. Que voulez-vous de plus?
Menu varié & avec beaucoup de choix! Mes bénédictines & saumon fumé étaient très bonnes! Bon service également Bon rapport qualité/prix, une valeur sûre comme endroit mais pas de « wow » particulier, tout est très traditionnel (pas une mauvaise chose en soit!)
On se croirait dans un café d'artistes. Ambiance & service impeccable. Pour la cuisine, on aurait aimé pouvoir déjeuner mais le service de ceux-ci ferme tôt.
J'aime beaucoup l'expérience du café passion, chaque fois que j'y suis allée, Julie (manager & serveuse) m'a toujours servie avec un grand sourire & d'une grande efficacité. La nourriture est on point, le service est impeccable chaque fois ! C'est my go-to restaurant. Je recommande !

Aujourd'huis 5 janvier, première fois au café passion avec excellant service, bien accueillie par la serveuse Julie ainsi qu'une excellente nourriture, je recommande fortement!
I came here for the first time with a group of friends (thank goodness I reserved in advance because it was full, full, full) & we had an excellent time. The biggest thank you is to Marjorie, our absolutely radiant, professional, attentive, charming & always smiling waitress - thank you Marjorie, you made our visit 5*. The food was great, very tasty, good portions, fresh & wide selection on the menu. The atmosphere was alive & buzzing with lots of smiling faces on the guests. Would definitely come here again. Wishes for a wonder-full 2024 & again thank you :-)
Expérience pour le dîner aujourd'hui : accueil froid (du genre "trouvez-vous une table, je suis occupée"), surface de la table collante. La nourriture est correcte, par contre les quantités dans le menu enfant sont minuscules (le grill-cheese est le plus petit & basique que j'ai jamais vu dans un restaurant depuis 12 ans que nous vivons au Québec). La "cerise sur le sundae" : le pourboire de 15% est inclus d'emblée dans la facture !! Quand on questionne la serveuse sur ce choix, sa réponse est : "ben c'est comme ça en France aussi, non ?". L'accent français semble poser problème dans ce restaurant & donne l'impression de s'en "faire passer une petite vite" ... dommage !
My first visit here & unfortunately I forgot my phone in the car so I couldn't get pictures but I absolutely love this place. I'll be back soon for sure. Very friendly staff, our waitress was the best. I really enjoyed it. If you've never been, go try it.
