Review Summary

Café Rì Yuè is widely celebrated as a charming, cozy, and aesthetic destination in Montreal, particularly appreciated for its creative Asian-inspired menu and high-quality artisanal pastries. Many patrons frequently praise the fresh, light, and perfectly sweetened cakes, such as the strawberry matcha chiffon, as well as the unique, generous macarons and savory focaccia. While the staff is often described as warm, friendly, and accommodating, the small size of the venue frequently leads to crowding and limited seating, which can make the atmosphere loud during peak hours. Although the majority of visitors have excellent experiences, some have noted that the price point is on the higher side and that service policies regarding restrooms or seating can occasionally feel restrictive. Overall, it remains a favorite for those seeking a unique coffee break in a visually appealing environment.

We love trying new cafés, & we recently came across Ri Yuè Café. We were so excited to visit, & it definitely lived up to the hype! It's easily one of the prettiest cafés in Montréal.

Every drink & dessert was beautifully presented & tasted just as amazing as it looked. We tried a few of their Asian-inspired drinks & dreamy desserts, & everything was OMG delicious!

The atmosphere is also cozy, aesthetic, & perfect for catching up with friends or going on a cute café date. The staff were also incredibly kind & welcoming, making the experience even better.
We'll definitely be back!!

One of my favourite cafes in Montreal! My go to is the matcha strawberry cake & hojicha latte. Their macarons are super unique as well! It is sometimes quite hard to get a seat as this place is very popular.

Cafe Ri Yue est un petit cafe situe en plein Centre-Ville dans le Quartier Spectacles de Montreal (pres du metro Place des Arts ligne verte). Ils ont des macarons, des biscuits, des sucreries, de toutes sortes de cafes, etc. Les places sont limitees alors mieux de commander pour emporter & profiter du beau temps & vous s'asseoir tout pres de la Fontaine du Quartier des Spectacles. Allez les encourager. Merci pour le bel accueil & service. Au plaisir, Missy A.

The sesame chiffon cake was fantastic, & the food looked great overall.

The service, however, was a bit odd. I asked about the restroom when I arrived & was told I could get the key when placing my order. When I got in line & asked for the key so my pregnant wife could use the restroom, I was told the order had to be completed first. They eventually made an exception after I explained the urgency, which I appreciated, but the interaction felt unnecessary.

Great cake, but the restroom policy made the experience more awkward than it needed to be.

Literally a hidden gem in Montreal!!

The owners are very picky about what they serve on their menu, which honestly makes everything on the menu the best of it's version. The macarons & cakes are baked fresh every single morning, everything is so cute & really good.

10/10, highly recommend if you looking for a cozy café with amazing pastries.
