Review Summary

Café September is widely celebrated as a premier brunch destination in Montreal, beloved for its exceptionally fluffy pancakes, comforting tomato soup paired with grilled cheese, and high-quality breakfast sandwiches. While the café maintains a vibrant, minimalist atmosphere and consistently friendly service, its popularity often leads to significant wait times and a crowded environment. Most patrons agree that the freshness and flavor of the dishes make the experience well worth the effort, especially when visiting during quieter weekday hours. Although the seating process can be hectic, the delicious coffee, artisanal lattes, and generous portions ensure that guests frequently return for another satisfying meal.

This is easily one of the best cafes in the city. The coffee is consistently excellent & the staff are always very friendly even when it gets busy during the morning rush. I appreciate that the space is kept very clean & the seating is comfortable enough to stay for a while. It has a great local vibe that is hard to find these days. Whether you are looking for a place to catch up with a friend or just want a quiet corner to read a book this is the place to go.

September Cafe has become my favorite place to unwind after a long day. The lighting is soft & the music selection is always tasteful which creates a relaxing environment that is perfect for resetting. I usually grab a tea & a small snack & the consistency is always top notch. It is nice to support a local business that puts so much effort into the customer experience. I have recommended this spot to several coworkers already & everyone has had a great time so far.

I visited September Cafe for the first time yesterday & I was impressed by the minimalist aesthetic & the quality of the service. The barista was very knowledgeable about the different bean origins & helped me pick a pour over that I really enjoyed. It is rare to find a place that takes their craft so seriously while remaining so approachable. Prices are reasonable for the area & the overall experience felt very professional. I am looking forward to coming back soon to try their food menu.

Je vous DÉCONSEILLE ce lieu, l'accueil est mauvais, ils se trompent sur la commande puis râlent en refaisant la commande.
Y avait des morceaux ÉTRANGE au fond de mon latté & les pancakes à la fraise avaient du gros sel sur le dessus.

Il y a peu de place & la musique est trop forte. Je ne comprends pas non plus le principe de ne pas être servis mais de se placer comme au McDo.

Well worth the wait. Remember the patio at the back if it gets too busy.

I think they can improve the wait time but seem they are not doing anything about it. I just updated my review to one star because this morning a guy just crossed the line to pass by everyone, so apparently for coffee you don't wait but for food you wait!! What a weird rule! Never going back to this place!

Always crowded , which tells the food is good & thats why we always loved to go there!! But BuT But … they are not managing their sitting area well. Less space & they are doing nothing about it. This morning it was garbage pickup day & least did they bother about the people having food in the patio when their garbage was smelling so bad that we could not eat the food & had to throw it.
The 2 garbage trucks were back to back were trying to pick their garbage which wasn't properly dumped as per recycling rules. The garbage trucks left some of their garbage bags & the cafe owner did not bother to either tell the people having meals about this inconvenience. No more coming back after this pissed off morning.

Good food & nice staff, but seating a bit limited if you're not taking just a coffee.
