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. Standout drinks include dulce de leche latte and various rose water and mango matcha drinks, while the food is highlighted by fresh sandwiches, focaccia, avocado toast, and pastries like madeleines and choux. Overall the consensus is positive on the coffee and vibe, with a few cautions about value and occasional service hiccups.
Tasty french toast, but overpriced since it didn't fill me up. It has the texture of a cannelé. Very good chou with generous filling. The dulce de leche latte was nice, but nothing special. I'd try it iced. Overall I paid almost 40$ for these 3 items so depends on your budget. I would try the other pastries, but not brunch again.

Have been living in Griffintown for a few years & had somehow never heard of Redwood until yesterday, when a friend told me they make one of the best iced lattes in this area. She was not lying!
Went in this morning to try their dulce de leche iced latte & WOW, it's the first time I've had a flavored coffee that wasn't overly sweet & was actually delicious. I also grabbed a regular cappuccino for my partner (who is very picky about coffee), & he said it was great too.
Definitely order something from their baked goods as well. I tried the blueberry muffin & it was delicious.
The staff were so friendly & kind. I'll definitely be back & highly recommend!
Beginning with the ordering process, the staff didn't know what ingredients were in the beef sandwich I wanted to order. I decided to order anyway & planned to dine in with my friends. I asked for a regular cup for my coffee, not a paper cup; however, they still served my coffee in a paper cup.
In addition, it took a very long time for them to prepare the sandwich. After waiting for quite a while, I ended up canceling my order. The barista was also very rude & tried to convince me that the delay was somehow my problem.
The quality of their food & drinks might be good according to other reviews, but my experience at this place was horrible. I will definitely not go back & will share my experience with others who are considering going there.
Meilleur café de pointe st-charles, forever des souvenirs du 6am run club qui s'y tenait pendant l'été. Les
baristas étaient trop gentils. L'ambiance & service parfaits encore à ce jour. J'adore le Redwood 🥹🌟
The prices are kind of too much for the quality of the food. Also the matcha was not good, don't take it if you love matcha! It just tastes like milk & syrup. The atmosphere was nice! Think.

Lovely cafe, good variety on methods, coffee types, lots of specialty coffee beans available for purchase. I wish they had more savory options, I had the avocado toast with bacon, latte & a pour over. Everything was tasty, fresh & nicely done. Service was great as well, definitely would recommend to specialty coffee lovers!
