This place is so unique. Just a chill, relaxing vibe & the carrot cake (recommended by my chiropractor lol) was amazing. Staff were all great, friendly & conversational too.

Un havre de paix gourmand au coeur de la ville

Le Café Santropol est une véritable oasis urbaine. Son jardin verdoyant & foisonnant d'objets anciens & d'oeuvres éclectiques en fait un lieu unique où l'on peut se détendre, s'émerveiller… & bien manger ! Les portions sont généreuses, surtout les sandwichs - tellement copieux qu'ils se partagent facilement à deux, ce qui en fait une option parfaite pour les familles avec enfants. Ces derniers y trouvent d'ailleurs un équilibre rare : la stimulation douce de l'exploration du jardin combinée à une atmosphère calme.

C'est aussi mon arrêt préféré après une randonnée au Mont-Royal. Rien de tel qu'une pause relaxante dans ce décor bohème pour savourer l'effort.

💬 Petit bémol : l'endroit gagnerait à être un peu mieux entretenu. Certaines tables sont collantes (le vernis s'effrite), la peinture est défraîchie, & les toilettes auraient besoin d'un rafraîchissement. Cela dit, ces détails n'enlèvent rien au charme général du lieu - un café hors du temps qui vaut le détour.

Atmosphere is great! Reminds me of LA ! Made me super nostalgic... love that they had vegan & vegetarian options.

Salad was nice. Sandwhich was good mostly cuz I was starving. Id go back to try the vegan mac n cheese! Definitely curious. I wouldnt buy the sandwhich again like it was okay. Salad would take again tho.

Vibe was great. Restroom was horrible lol

I've recommended this place to many people in the past because the service & food used to be excellent. Unfortunately, my recent experience was quite disappointing. When a server showed us to a table, we noticed another empty one with a better view & chose to sit there instead. When she returned, she said,'I thought I said this table,' with a noticeably rude attitude. While we may have made a mistake by switching tables, it could have been handled more politely.

Later, the waiter who took our order brought me a dirty glass. I asked for a replacement, but instead of addressing it, he continued serving other tables & ignored us. When I followed up again, he responded with a dismissive'yeah' without even looking at us. This kind of treatment is not what I expect as a customer, especially from a place I used to admire!

Not to mention, it took quite a while for someone to take our order - even though we arrived before the group next to us, they were served first. We eventually had to flag someone down just to place our order.

Food was still good & had good quality but service disappointed me!

Amazing sandwiches & a beautiful garden setting, a must visit in Mile End!

Service was so bad. We were in line for 10 minutes, no big deal. It was then just over an hour by the time food actually arrived. Servers were clearly not managing tables (groups behind us ordered & were served well before us). Pretty sure it was over 30 minutes before our order was even taken.

Food wasn't more than tolerable, except for the soup which was great. Service was untrained. Overall needs to tighten up in many areas.

The place is beautiful & very cozy. The service was good, & all the soups I tried were delicious & definitely worth the price. I also tried a sandwich that I didn't enjoy as much, but overall, it was a great experience. I would recommend this place to others.
