Café Rì Yuè comes across as a small, cozy and visually charming cafe near Place des Arts, beloved for inventive drinks and beautiful pastries that range from matcha and hojicha lattes to yuzu and ube cheesecakes, macarons, and other delicate desserts, with many reviews highlighting the quality and presentation. The vibe is intimate and welcoming, with plenty of natural light and cute decor, but seating can be limited and at times the space feels crowded, sometimes requiring customers to share tables. The staff are frequently praised for friendliness and attentiveness, though a few notes mention variable service and occasional delays or mix ups. Prices are sometimes described as a bit high for the portions, though the menu of full cakes is noted as convenient for celebrations. The cafe is repeatedly recommended for a quick coffee break or to meet a friend, and fans celebrate its desserts as not too sweet and beautifully crafted, with standout items like the matcha strawberry cake, yuzu cheesecake, and white chocolate matcha drinks. Overall, Café Rì Yuè appears to deliver a consistently cute and tasty experience for dessert lovers and matcha fans, even as space limitations and occasional service quirks keep it from being ideal for larger groups or longer study sessions.
Café très mignon avec des serveuses très aimables & qui servent des pâtisseries faites maison tous les jours, j'y viens souvent prendre un matcha ou un Hojicha

Favourite cafe in Montreal, cute interior with a small well decorated patio, good coffee, nice latte arts & high quality matcha latte. I recommend their dalgona latte, & their tiramisu is also very good made with fresh espressos. 10/10 recommend.
J'ai vraiment aimé ce café, avec sa superbe sa deco & son personnel amical ❤👌. Mon café était bon & servi dans une belle tasse. Mon cheese cake était correct, par contre le brownie était un peu sec.
Superbe endroit pour prendre un café, un latte ou autre accompagné de magnifiques patisseries (croissants, scones, gateaux aux fromages, macarons ...).

À la deuxième tentative on a réussi à trouver une place ! Menu original, belle décoration mais trop trop petit est serré, sinon il est très instagrammable
Such a lovely place! Beautiful atmosphere, great music, amazing service, & incredible food! The daisies in the window caught my eye & so I went in to check it out, & I'm so happy I did! If you want a sweet snack & place to chat this is it!

this place was LOVELY! i stayed there with a friend after class & we accidentally spent ~5 hours occupying a table (we were studying the entire time) i am very surprised the owner didn't just kick us out. speaking of which, the staff was very friendly & smiley we felt super comfy there. we ordered a matcha strawberry cake slice (~8$) & a cube of potato garlic bread (~4$). the cake was DELICIOUS, it wasn't too sweet & was very moist & soft. the bread on the other hand was kind of dry & hard on the edges but i personally still enjoyed it! would definitely come back for more cake, they had a pretty yummy looking selection of pastries.
Very cute café with very delicious desserts. We had 3 slices of cake & 1 fatcaron. The cakes were creamy, fluffy & not too sweet. My favourite cake was the Strawberry Matcha flavour, I thought the matcha had a nice deep taste. The fatcaron was very cute, it was heart-shaped, & it tasted good too but I preferred the cakes. EDIT: I came back, & had the Strawberry Matcha cake again & the Taro Taro cake. Both were so delicious & the fresh cream was so fluffy.
It's the perfect spot to relax & grab a little coffee with a nice homemade cake in the chaos of downtown Montreal! The seats are comfortable & the staff is friendly. ☕️🍰🧁📚
i love it!! everything about this place was perfect!! the place looks so cute & gives off cottage vibes. also the pastries were insanely good, i tried a couple of their macarons & they are a MUST! definitely recommend & will be back!!
