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.
There were many people that day, two of us were in a corner. As a result, he kept saying not to use the computer, asking us to move to another place. The table had a sign saying not to use it on weekdays, but it's allowed on weekends. Anyway, the guy, who was a staff member, was very annoying. He asked if we had ordered anything. We ordered drinks, but in the end, we just left. It was just frustrating.

Staff is super nice, a little too open space/bright overhead light-y for me, but small space good for working late. They have drinks too ($4 beer all Jan so walk don't run- loved the local clementine beer)
Je m'y suis arrêté par hasard parce que j'étais en avance pour la réservation au Shushuto juste à côté & wow. Petit endroit super sympa, sans prétention. Y'a des amis qui viennent se donner des nouvelles, des jeunes adultes qui travaillent sur leur portable. Le staff est hyper patient & sympa. J'ai pris un latté glacé aux épices & il était excellent. C'est la première fois que j'ai autant de choix de boissons froides dans un café, j'aurai volontier choisi un menu dégustation si ça avait été possible! Le blanc & le bois clair c'est toujours une combinaison gagnante pour inspirer, détendre & mettre les gens à l'aise. La musique est juste ce qu'il faut mélancholique. Lpailles sont en agave ce qui est super aussi. Je recommande vivement !
Just tried their cream puff with pastry cream! It was delicious! Was very happy to get the last piece of the day. They are very responsive on social media. & they were super friendly on site 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.

Équipe super ultra génial. Belle petite espace pour café & étude ou simplement prendre un verre (ils ont de bon choix de boissons) . J'ai aussi été présente lors d'une mini événement de travail & le service fut extra. ;) vraiment pas loin du métro Charlevoix .. cela sera simple comme visite , je vous le suggère.

The croissants are the best in the neighborhood. Also the hot chocolate & the coffee are good. For cappuccino, as an Italian I must say that the double shot is not my thing, but in North America it seems standard. The staff is always cordial. The place is usually not overcrowded. I don't give 5 because I keep the top rating for truly amazing experiences, but this modern, cosy & quit cafeteria is a point of reference in the area.

I am always on the lookout for cafes that make delicious ice tea lattes & I'm happy to add Cafe Redwood to that list. Their teas are fragrant, not watered down by ice, & perfectly sweetened (though my friend found it too sweet for her liking) They have a great selection of syrups & milk, which is always exciting because I can customise my london fog to my liking. I ordered a london fog with lavender syrup & it was delicious. & they offer pistachio milk, how fun!
Little comfy nook. Good food & awesome matcha lattes, perfect for a hangout. They have vegan dairy alternatives for the drinks which is wonderful. The avocado toast is vegan if you exclude the feta. Only thing I would suggest is perhaps adding some vegan pastries to go with the lovely vegan beverages!
