Many patrons praise the welcoming atmosphere, the kindness of the staff, and the excellent coffee options, often highlighting the location as a perfect spot for a quick bite or a relaxing break in the Old Port. However, other experiences report issues with food freshness, cleanliness, and unprofessional conduct from certain employees, including disruptive behavior and inconsistent opening hours.

I like the coffee here, but it's been terrible the last few weeks-the coffee isn't really coffee anymore; it's mostly milk, or it's cold. The pistachio croissant is my favorite, but every time I buy it, it's hard & stale! Same goes for the sandwiches… It's a shame-it used to be so much better. The place looks dark, lifeless, & unhygienic…

If I could curse on this app I would.
I walked for 1km at 12am to get there because'they're open till 4am' as per Google Maps, only to find it closed.
Absolutely unprofessional & worthless.

I have come here a handful of times & regularly go to van houtte cafes, the coffee drink i got was so terribly sub-par & frankly undrinkable. What an absolute waste.
