Coziest place in town. Amazing, friendly vibes here every time & lots of nice treats like shortbread. Love wandering between the bookshop upstairs & the coffee shop.

If you're a fan of the Three Pines books, this café is absolutely worth visiting. The atmosphere captures the cozy, welcoming vibe of the novels, & it really feels like stepping into that world. It was a fun stop & definitely one of the highlights of my visit to Knowlton.

The staff were all very kind & friendly, but the service could have been more organized. After ordering, I waited for my drink while several beverages accumulated on the counter. No names or drink types were called out, so everyone was left trying to figure out which cup belonged to them. It made pickup more confusing than it needed to be.

The coffee itself was also a bit underwhelming. It's perfectly drinkable, but I would describe the café as more of a destination for the experience than for exceptional, barista-quality coffee.

Overall, I really enjoyed my visit & would absolutely stop by again for the atmosphere alone. If the coffee & drink pickup process were improved, it would easily be a five-star experience.

The Three Pines Café is a special & simply magical place. In fact, after several visits here, I think I have discovered what I would call « the Fourth Pine ». The Fourth Pine, as I would define it, is that warmth you feel within your heart when sitting in one of the well-designed seating areas (thank you Louise & Kirk) that encourage patrons & friends to meet & exchange on numerous subjects of common interest, while at the same time being coddled by the very courteous & attentive staff.

EVERY time I have been here, I've had the opportunity to engage in the most interesting conversations with people from all around the world, from the Yukon to Namibia, as well as with many of our local neighbours. As an added bonus, my Labernese dog is always welcome here!

The common love of reading & writing, the search for an oasis of peace, the sumptuous coffee & mouth-watering snacks, all draw people to the Three Pines Café & are a powerful testament to the success of this wonderful gift from Louise Penny to Ville de Lac-Brome.

It felt just like walking into the cafe of Louise Penny's novels. I can imagine Armand, Reine-Marie & all their Three Pines friends feeling right at home there. I kept watching for them to walk in… maybe next time😉

Just arrived in Knowton & headed right to Cafe Three Pines. Delicious tarte au citron & iced decaf mocha. A very special oasis to relax & unwind in a beautiful atmosphere.

What a treat! We walked in & met Louise Penny! She was so friendly & inviting. We all had the Armand Gamache croissant which was excellent & huge! We wanted to save half, but as we sat there & talked, we found we ate the whole thing! The seating was comfortable & I was surprised there weren't price tags on everything. You could purchase the dinnerware & glassware though! The bookstore upstairs is also a treat.
