The most delicious sandwiches I've had in my life!!! So generously portioned. Loved the Duluth & the Avenue du Parc, & how many vegetarian options there were. The back garden is such a beautiful oasis! We came for a late lunch & there was still at least a 20 minute wait, but it was well worth it! The shop at the front has the cutest merch, including tote bags. Our server was very kind!

The backyard patio is so lush & a perfect place to have lunch in the summer. I love all their vegan options, especially the tofu salad. I wish they had sourdough bread as I unfortunately didn't like the thick dark bread that came with the sandwiches. The wait for a table can also be quite long!

Very nice terrace. We had a table for 6 & there were 4 errors on the orders (each person ordered 1 drink & 1 meal). Food was ok, I found the options were limited.

Such a perfect spot close to Mount Royal & Tam Tams! Love all the vegan options (the spot is entirely vegetarian) - I had the Mac n cheese & it was awesome! They also have a ton of hot sauces to try. A must try in the city!

ol' reliable café santropol! i love to come here for a quick meal in the summer & sit in the beautiful courtyard or get takeout to sit in parc jeanne-mance. the duluth sandwich, vegan mac & cheese, & chai milkshake (milkshake only available in the summer) are all consistently delicious options on the menu! avoid the iced chai, it was kind of watery.
the service can sometimes be a little disorganized, but the staff is always friendly. overall, i am a very frequent & happy camper at santropol ^_^

This was my favorite spot for amazing sandwiches & soul healing level plant life on the ceiling. Now you can barely spot a plant but I was delighted to see dogs. Even if I ordered the wrong sandwich option: the bread crust was as dry as day old, the chicken salad lacked seasoning of any kind & the itsy cup of dressing was utterly insufficient. The thrill is gone
