Cute & cozy place for a café. I had heard about the café on social media so I really wanted to try it. A bit pricey, but overall a nice place with threes & plants & lovely terrasse in the back.

The outdoor space at Santropol is beautiful & has a lovely atmosphere, but unfortunately, the rest of my experience was disappointing. There was an unpleasant smell inside the café, & the overall cleanliness did not meet my expectations. I was also uncomfortable with the staff's presentation while serving food, as it did not feel hygienic or appropriate for a café. I hope management pays more attention to cleanliness & hygiene standards.

Amazing place honestly. Don't be fooled by the outside or the 20$ sandwiches.

This place practices a style of restaurant cafe. You'll be seated & have a waiter serve you. The drinks are quite good. & yes, the price of a sandwich may seem a little high, but they're pretty big & made with high quality ingredients.

The biggest thing about here, is the atmosphere & service. It's a great place to feel like you've escaped the city. I highly recommend visiting this place.

Café très mignon & verduré, une petite parenthèse dans la ville. Attention en Été c'est plutôt plein donc il y a un peu d'attente pour aller dans le jardin
Concernant la nourriture nous n'en avons pas mangé ,mais avons pris des boissons - plutôt moyen

Ce serait mieux de servir le dessert en même temps que le café… que le dessert pis 15 minutes plus tard le café. Sinon, c'était super beau dehors & la déco intérieur 😍

Quirky, charming, quiet café. Mecca for artistic types writing their diaries or something on laptops. Beautiful backyard with a pond. Every corner is going to catch your attention.
