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.

Café Rì Yuè is easily one of the most unique cafés I've tried in Montréal. The menu is inspired by Taiwanese flavors with Japanese influences, making it a great spot if you're looking for something beyond the usual café experience.

The ube drinks & desserts are the highlights - I tried one of their ube specials, & it had the perfect balance of earthy sweetness & creaminess without being overpowering. Their matcha & other specialty drinks are also worth exploring.

If you're looking for a café with creative drinks, delicious Asian-inspired treats, & a cozy space with a great view, Café Rì Yuè is definitely worth a visit. I'll be coming back to try more of their menu.

Note: Expect a limited seating!

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!!

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.

A very nice & cozy spot, ideal for a good coffee break. We stopped by in the afternoon & enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere.

The place is quite small, so we ended up having our coffee standing, which is something to keep in mind during busier times.

We also tried a cookie, which was absolutely delicious & a great addition to the experience.

Overall, a charming stop for coffee & a quick treat, especially if you're looking for something simple & high quality.

I ordered a hot lavender matcha & it was rly good. It is a bit expensive, it was around 7.5$ for a small cup. The place is so very cute & cozy but it was very crowded, not enough seating. The service was good but it was a little slow. Overall, nice place, good matcha & good vibes.

It was a wonderful little coffee shop. It was nice & quiet & the decorations were simple & cozy.
The white hot chocolate was really good. The rose & cherry latte was normal & did not taste like advertised though. So I don't recommend it.
The tiramisu & the matcha cookie were also delicious. I highly recommend them.
Overall a nice place to visit!

Cute artistic & cozy environment, homemade desserts with adorable designs. My coffee & Tiramisu were fantastic. The sugar level in Asian place is always milder. Service was friendly & efficient. Seats are limited & sometimes you may need to accept sharing a bigger table with other guests. Space between the tables could be a bit close & tight. But I like the vibes here.

🎀 Very cute! 🌱
Had the miso mushroom focaccia, which was delicious, almost got another one to go!
My boyfriend got the black sesame cheesecake & really liked it!
For the drink, we got the sesame café latte, which tasted okay. Served on a platter.

Very nice employees, they also have a beeper for when your order is ready, very convenient.

Cozy ambiance, with cute decoration & big windows, so a lot of natural light! We had a wobbly table top tho, it would move if we touched under & over, which was a bit annoying, but we weren't staying there long so 🤷 not a big deal, but would need fixing.

Definitely going back to try other drinks & their other baked goods!! 🎀

Cozy local cafe! Ordered to share between two people & it was plenty.
Strawberry Matcha Cake: Good matcha taste, not too sweet. Soft & tender. Could use more strawberry slices!
Tiramisu: lots of espresso powder, pillowy soft but still rich in mascarpone.
Noir hot chocolates: Tastes like the smell of Kilians Angels Share! For a hot chocolate, it has depth!
