Review Summary

Café Tranquille is widely appreciated for its cozy atmosphere, warm decor, and beautiful views of the nearby skating rink, making it a popular spot for studying, reading, or meeting friends. Patrons generally enjoy the coffee and pastries, though some note the menu variety is limited. While the staff is often described as friendly and welcoming, inconsistent service, unpredictable hours, and occasional unprofessional behavior have been mentioned. A recurring challenge is the difficulty in finding seating, as the space can become quite crowded and is frequently occupied for long periods by individuals working or studying, which sometimes limits availability for other visitors.

I often go there to work. It is nice & beautiful!

However, when you want to work there, problem is that it can be noisy sometimes & it can be difficult to find a place.

But overall it's one of the top 3 coffee for working !

Their $6 vegan brownie was disgusting, overly sweet & porcelain-y texture

Great study spot! The atmosphere is very calm & nice, a perfect place to grab a coffee & study. The coffees & pastries are very good, but nothing too special. This place is very accessible due to its proximity to the Saint-Laurent metro station & to downtown Montreal. Overall, an amazing place! Truly recommend stopping by to grab a coffee, enjoy a book, relax, have a convo with someone, or even study.

One of my favorite place to study in Montreal!

It has reliable enough WiFi for me to work, outlets underneath the cushions (yes they're hidden but they're here!), & a generally quiet vibe. Not many tables, they get taken quickly, but the sofas have a lot of rotation.

They also have seats outside for the summer, & a nice fake fire to sit by during the winter

It gets incredibly crowded at times so I wouldn't come with a group, but you can easily sit if you come alone.

The baristas are always very kind, & they have a 15% discount for students :3

Overall love love this place, it's been & always will be one of my favorite spots to just come exist 🤩

One of my favorite coffee places, specially with ice rink view & student discount, but the baristas are really unpredictable with their opening hours: they take long pause randomly & today they even closed before the publicly announced hour - at 18:30 the guy closed the shop.
