Reviews describe Cafe Sfouf as a warm, cozy space with a relaxed ambience and bright, homey decor that makes it feel like a place to linger or work. The atmosphere, tasteful interior, and attentive, friendly service are repeatedly praised, with many noting that a pleasant energy and welcoming staff create a comfortable environment and even a small Sfouf cake with each coffee. Some longtime patrons feel changes in the coffee quality and crema, reporting a bitterness or a shift in flavor since recent changes. Occasional practical drawbacks appear, such as limited payment options that do not include Visa or Mastercard, a matcha latte that can be pale from milk, and in some reviews, ventilation could be better. Prices are sometimes described as a bit high relative to offerings, but overall the cafe leaves a positive impression for those seeking a cozy spot for a quiet coffee, study, or chat.
I was so looking forward to trying out Cafe Sfouf, & settling in for a couple hours with a latte, but they do not take Master Card or Visa for payment. I literally had no way to pay since even my ATM card is Visa. 😢😢😢

Très agréable & de très bon produits autant au niveau des boissons que des biscuits
Seul petit point négatif : il ne prenne que les cartes de débits ce qui peux être embarrassant
Beau café cosy & sympathique. La devanture est belle & l´interieur est chaleureux. C´est un café avec une décoration un peu comme a la maison avec des tables & des cafés canapé retro-chics.
Le service est bien, les serveuses sont agréables & à l´écoute. Dommage pour le fait qu´il refuse les visa & Mastercard.
La soupe était bonne & le jus d´orange aussi.
Les prix sont un peu eleve pour ce que c´est mais ca reste bien.

Charmant café avec ses grandes fenêtres, ses chaises dépareillées & ses beaux centres de table, avec un accueil sincère & chaleureux dès la première minute d'ouverture.
A bright & cozy space where you instantly feel at home. The long table by the window is perfect for solo visitors or studying, while the large communal tables in the center are great for families. There's even a dedicated kids' area, making it even more inviting. Plus, every coffee comes with a mini Sfouf cake-a sweet nod to the café's name. A perfect spot for a relaxing break or a productive work session. 💛🌞
Heads up: Closed on Monday!

My favourite local coffee shop. The owner is absolutely wonderful & her spirit seems to trickle down to her staff. The food is all made in house & the recipes have been perfected. Their coffee is from a local roaster & is absolutely delicious. The cafe is nice & bright in the day, & feels like a cozy living-room. I've met some people there that have become life-long pals. Go, you won't regret it. Oh, please try their Mediterranean (not Canadian!) style brunch on the weekends after 11:30am. Delicious, healthy, having you come back for it again.
