Cet endroit a littéralement sauvé mon premier matin à Montréal. J'avais besoin de démarrer ma journée positivement. J'ai trouvé cet endroit extraordinaire où j'ai été merveilleusement bien accueillie! Le café est délicieux & préparé avec amour. & que dire des smoothies, bien dosés, originaux, santés & magnifiques! L'ambiance est calme & parfaite pour travailler. Je recommande à 100%
If you're looking for a breakfast that looks as good as it tastes, go to Café Tere. Their smoothie bowls are truly artistic & packed with nutrition. Paired with a smooth coffee & a seat in the sunshine on Prince Arthur, it was the perfect start to the day.
The vibe here is incredibly Zen, & the staff were so welcoming & friendly. It was such a pleasant experience to finally enjoy the sun after so many months of winter. I'll definitely be making this a regular stop!
Beautiful café with large windows & a soothing energy flow. The coffee was top notch, the home made energy bars one of the best I have ever had & the staff & atmosphere so welcoming. A place to be discovered 😊

I came here to get a drink & study & was only told that I couldn't use my laptop after I bought my $7 drink. Upsetting because I had to drink it in a rush so I could go elsewhere to do work
Everything is fine about this place. It's just not my type of environment. However, if you are comfortable in tight spaces, like a dessert 🏜? simplicity vibe & enjoy eating natural food without much spices. It's perfect! I won't return but I encourage you to try, the owner is a beautiful soul & without her spirit, the place would be dull 😅
Perhaps the nicest barista i've ever encountered. Didnt catch her name but she was such a ray of sunshine, helped me decide my drink & took her time making it. Great pumpkin spice latte, perfect foam, attentive service from everyone, & a comfortable environment.
Someone who was presumably the owner, or perhaps just a barista on a power trip, yelled from behind the counter to inform me of their no laptop on weekend policy. I don't have a problem with the policy, but rather the way it was communicated to me in an agressive tone with 10 other customers around. Mind you, this policy isn't listed on the website or at the counter before ordering. Do better.

Satisfying espresso based beverages. Nothing extraordinary but very decent.
Great little spot. It does get noisy, if small groups come in for aninated conversation. It is really not that big of a place.
No fluff & simple place. Get your fill, do your work, get your chat on (or people watch during the Summer since it is a pedestrian street). Repeat. It's that kind of place.
Quelle belle découverte, le lieu est reposant & agréable, les boissons sont préparées avec un extrême soin (me pose des questions sur comment je veux mon matcha sucré sur une échelle de 1-10, me propose de l'eau pétillante…) l'expérience a été rendu agréable notamment par la présence de Myriam, la barista, qui est au petit soin & qui fera tout pour vous satisfaire
