Overall, Café Redwood is described as a cozy, welcoming spot with strong coffee, house made pastries, and a growing selection of savory options that many reviewers praise for quality and variety. The atmosphere is bright and friendly, good for study or brunch, with some noting the canal side location and a few tables reserved for non laptop users. Prices are frequently mentioned as high for the quality, and a few reviewers report inconsistent or slow service when busy.

Very welcoming stuff & very nice vibe! They also, have gluten free options (sandwiches & dessert). It is a nice little coffee shop by the canal where you can grab coffee & enjoy yourself!
Le café est excellent, le cadre est visiblement agréable & lumineux. La localisation près du canal devrait en faire un lieu de choix & de prédilection. Cela dit, en prenant le temps de lire les commentaires, le principal grief porte sur l'accueil & le service. En fait, un certain schéma semble se répéter. Je regrette de devoir dire que j'abonde dans ce sens. À l'arrivée, l'accueil est loin d'être chaleureux, les employés semblent plutôt blasés. En l'occurrence, j'ai eu l'impression de déranger, alors que c'était loin d'être une heure d'affluence. Mon expérience n'est apparemment pas un cas isolé. Le service est glacial, le sourire est absolument en option dans ce café. Les tarifs sont également prohibitifs, plutôt rédhibitoires. Bref, je dirais ceci : « amateur d'un bon café abordable dans un lieu chaleureux, passe ton chemin !».
As usual super cozy well lit not too loud coffee shop right next to the canal. Easy to access. I love all of their fruity matcha options!!! This one is mango 🥭 also bonus point for the "no computer tables" for people who just wanna stop by for a quick coffee.
Beau p'tit café du quartier, ambiance très chaleureuse & personnel gentil. À proximité du canal & du marcher Atwater , près du métro. Menu original & bon. J'y vais souvent. Fortement recommandé.

I had a rather disappointing experience. Unfortunately. The atmosphere good & location is good especially near canal. However dirty tables left uncleared & a general lack of cleanliness. I was there last week got reminded to write the review there food was untasty & when I ask to heat it it was not heated well. Also prices are above average whole experience lead me to not come again!
Great cafe near Lachine canal. I've really enjoyed their matcha with fruit, as well as avocado & ricotta toasts & freshly made cinnamon buns. Coffee was good as well. Pleasant vibe & sufficient enough seating if you intend to stay a bit, but it can get busy of course.
Came here after a long walk on the Lachine Canal on the saturday evening. The interior is mixed between the industrial look on the ceiling & pillar, & the soft wood, combine with the use of the yellow light makes the place look cozy. The golden hour is the best time to visit because the sun shines through the café window. The matcha latte is also good & it comes with the unique cup with the café logo. They also sell cocktail too for those who wants to drink alcohol.

Super café au bord du canal Lachine. Le personnel est très accueillant & sympathique. Ils laissent rentrer les chiens pour commander à emporter. Le café est délicieux & les toasts à l'avocat aussi. Endroit hyper propre, idéal pour un café en coup de vent ou pour une après-midi à travailler sur l'ordinateur.
I ordered rose water matcha🍵 it is unexpectedly good not too sweet! But if the matcha is a bit more concentrated, it will be fantastic! I found this place after going marché Atwater (8 mins walk) it will pass by the amazing canal. There are tables for computer-free & some tables for ppl using computers. If you just either want to chill or work there, it is an option too.
Love this spot near the canal! I just went here today with my friend & her twins. We both had strollers so I wasn't sure how we would manage but the cafe is actually quite big & easier to go in with a stroller. However, the barista kindly brought us our lattes as we waited outside which was so sweet! This will be my go-to cafe this winter.
