If you find yourself in Montreal, make sure to pop into Café Santropol-it's an absolute treasure! From the moment you walk through the door, the friendly staff greet you like an old friend, making you feel right at home. Their warmth & attentiveness truly elevate your dining experience! I indulged in the Duluth Sandwich, packed with caramelized onions, cheddar, & sweet pears-it was a flavor party in my mouth! & don't even get me started on the Gâteau au chocolat trois étages; it's a rich, chocolatey delight that's simply irresistible. The charming outdoor terrace is perfect for soaking up the sun while enjoying your meal. Just a fun heads-up: tipping is mandatory here, but trust me, those amazing staff members absolutely deserve it for their stellar service! In short, Café Santropol is a cozy gem that combines fantastic food with top-notch hospitality. You'll definitely want to come back for more!

Progressive as ever. Prices went through the roof since I was there last. Must be that pesky post-covid inflation.

Worth the wait! Primarily vegetarian &/or vegan menu, with options to add meat & dairy to some dishes. Huge sandwiches on fresh pillowy bread & hearty soups (ask about the soup of the day!) Charming & cozy atmosphere with expansive & secluded patio & curated decor. Will be back next time I'm in Montreal!

The place looks cozy, there is a colorful backyard with cute little elements put together, nothing authentic but still cute. We had 2 sandwiches, Olympic 76, & triplex something, really bad Sadwiches, & I mean BAD (tastes bad, too much runny sauce, everything falls off the sandwich, & worst of all just one type of stale bread for all) & quite expensive for the portion & quality. Service was ok, but remember you are not allowed to use your laptop in the Terrrase area, because the owner has said so! I asked one of the waiters & she said people using laptops tend to stay longer which makes sense but why not saying you can't stay more than 60 min or whatever instead of saying you are not allowed to open your laptop here? That doesn't seem reasonable or friendly specially for a casual coffeshop. But later the waiter found us a table inside with cable which was nice. We also tried the classic cheese cake, too sweet & average. Overal won't be going back & mainly because of food.

Merci simple & terrasse vraiment extra. Cela faisait longtemps que je n'y étais pas allé, & l'ambiance est toujours aussi chaleureuse.

Quel beau bistro! L'ambiance est celle des cafés du Plateau de la fin du 20e siècle (avant la gentrification & la "starbuckisation" massives), ces cafés originaux qui avaient une déco éclectique & un esprit bohème. & la terrasse pleine de plantes & d'arbres est tout simplement féérique, surtout en soirée quand les guirlandes de lumières sont allumées. Aussi, leur cappuccino est vraiment excellent!

I was really excited to try this place but in the end, I was pretty disappointed. The menu isn't clear about what's vegan or not. They didn't have the macncheese nor tempeh or avocado so we basically ordered 3 items & they came 10 or 15 min later to tell us that they were actually out of 2 out of 3 things we ordered... I did like the chaucer sandwich, bread was super fresh. Vegan cheesecake was also delicious. I wouldn't go back tho.
