What a wonderful surprise! Café Souvenir has a fresh new energy, & the new staff truly make all the difference. Everyone was warm, attentive, & genuinely welcoming from the moment we walked in.
The service was fast, friendly, & professional, creating such a relaxed atmosphere. The food was delicious, the coffee was excellent, & you can really tell the team cares about providing a great customer experience.
It's great to see this neighborhood favorite thriving with such a fantastic new team. Highly recommend stopping by if you're on Bernard Street-you won't be disappointed. Looking forward to coming back soon!
Visited Cafe Souvenir on a Sunday afternoon. Had a fantastic experience.
The restaurant itself is cozy, which provides for a very pleasant, intimate atmosphere. The restaurant is very clean & well decorated. There is also a terrace that opens onto a pedestrian-only street in the summer months. While I sat inside, the terrace would be a great option for many.
I tried the fish, french fries, beer, coffee, & dessert (I was hungry). It was all very well prepared. I'd definitely recommend everything I tried.
The staff was excellent. I was served by Isabela. She provided quick & professional service, & was a pleasure to talk to. She contributed very positively to the experience.
I went in for coffee, a main course, & dessert, & everything was spectacular. From the warm welcome & excellent service to the delicious food, the dessert was fresh & perfectly balanced in flavors & textures, as was the main course. I loved it! The place is beautiful, cozy, clean, & pleasant. I'll definitely be back! Thank you & congratulations! 100% recommended 👏
I have been going to Cafe Souvenir for decades. It has always been consistently great even when the ownership changed a few times. While the former concept was fantastic with the passport menu & more choices than you could ever try, I love this current ownership & iteration of the cafe & menu. It's owner run, so they know what they're doing & the attention to detail is there. Warm milk with your coffee, omelettes brought straight from the pan, to name a few details I appreciate. They know how to cook; French from France style. So many restaurants in Montreal have gone up in price & down in value. Not Cafe Souvenir! They are doing it well & I highly recommend them. Great, friendly service. One of my regular brunch places.
My recent visit to Cafe Souvenir left much to be desired. Not only was the food mediocre, particularly the chicken egg benedict, but the service was also subpar. We had to repeatedly ask for things, & my coffee order was forgotten entirely. Even when requesting a refill, only half of my mug was filled, & the milk arrived almost when we were leaving. Overall, a disappointing experience that I won't be repeating.
