Café Pista offers a casual, bright vibe and a warm atmosphere that makes it a good spot for working or studying, with a varied menu and prices that feel fair for what's offered. The service receives high marks for friendliness and attentiveness, coffee is consistently praised for quality, and the indoor ambiance is cozy and pleasant with outlets available for long visits. It is described as a great place to linger, a reliable neighborhood cafe, though a few comments mention occasional dessert dryness and that access can be a bit challenging during renovations.
Endroit vaste , avec beaucoup de place , & différents bancs , pour tous les goûts. Le service était super agréable, le cortado était bon & bien fait , le sandwich déjeuner également.

One of my favorite cafes in Montreal! Love all the drinks & the desserts.
Although ever so often the desserts tend to be a little bit dry. The service is wonderful & the coffee is so good. It's cute & cozy inside & the playlist is always nice. Also really appreciate that there are outlets & you can work on the longer tables in the back or on the side. It's really quaint to work at!
Je vais normalement au Pista rue Masson, latte toujours parfait.
Ce matin 9h30 je décide d'essayer celui sur boul St-Laurent.
Le latte goûtait pratiquement que le lait chaud, à peine le goût du café était perceptible. Une tasse de lait chaud pour un prix élevé.....Non merci !
J'adore!! Beau, bon & agréable pour venir bruncher ou simplement prendre un café!
Un des meilleurs cafés en ville ou venir se détendre, en toute saison!
Not in the best neighbourhood, from the outside didn't really catch my attention, but on google said the have a great matcha latte & home made pastries, so I gave it a try.
2023.
The atmosphere was nice, the music too.
You'll find a lot of teenagers doing their homework & others just looking at their computers or phones.
I seat whit two other people on a big table . My matcha latte was cold , my muffin was good, but the guy told me it was apple caramel, & it really was blueberry's .
2025z my daughter told me they have a great focaccia sandwich, so I went to try it. Apparently it's not in the menu anymore. What they had wasn't really tempting at all.
It's a cute cafe located right next to station Saint-Laurent. The food feels a bit overpriced for the quality though, I spent 15$ on a small carrot cake & a latte & the carrot cake had raisins which was quite the surprise (not in a good way). It was alright, nothing wow. Very cute spot however.
