Nice place for a cappuccino & croissant. Very European feel with sidewalk seating. The food is standard, but everything you would expect for a sidewalk cafe.View more

Very lovely little café, the decor is impeccable! The menu is only in French but they have wonderful bilingual service. We got sandwiches, the Greek salad, a cookie, & some iced drinks - the only complaint I can think of is that the drinks are quite watery, but the food was very good & more than made up for it. Overall a good café choice if you are looking for one.View more

Ce café est parfait pour un café bien serré ou un petit déjeuner convivial. L'ambiance est chaleureuse & le personnel accueillant. Les options pour le petit déjeuner, comme le pain frais & les jus de fruits & omelettes, sont très satisfaisantes.View more

Café allongé excellent La serveuse me dit Aye au lieu de me dire un beau BONJOUR chaleureux. Muffin aux carottes pâteux, pain perdu pâteux. Faite cuire plus longtemps ou changer de recette. Excellente musique, d'ailleurs c'est ça qui nous a fait rester là, car nous y allions pour manger des pastas de nata, mais il n'y en avait pas.View more

Cafe that serves lunch sandwiches, omelettes & wine! Great location close to Peel Metro station. I didn't like their seating though, the high tables that are towards the back are really small & unstable. In fact a customer next table accidentally dropped & broke a coffee cup too. The food was okay & the coffee was good. Good variety & options to choose from but place is bit on the pricier side.View more

Rico y contundente. Debes pedir sándwich en un sector y luego el café en otro sector.View more

Every time I'm in Montreal I have to stop at Cafe Vasco. Everything is perfect here, the coffee, the pasteis, breakfast, lunch, all of it. I love this place so much .View more

One of the oldest coffeeshops of Montreal. Same decor & same menu. Same average service by the employees. I don't know, if it's hard for the employees to be little warm towards their guests. Otherwise, their coffees are first class. Over the time, the prices have risen. I have been coming here for the last 15 years , so the only evolution I saw is in the prices. I recommend the cafe au lait or cappuccino. The texture is smooth & the taste is super delicious. Beside the service, I enjoy the rest of the experience.View more

Daniel
Authentic Portuguese Euro-feeling bistro-cafe. Great for a business lunch. Small-ish & often bustling. The decor can't be beat: nice tiling, archways, marble counter, mediterranean frescos. Food is quality. The fresh grilled tuna burger is to die for, & the dessert parties are scrumptious.View more

One of my favorite cafés in MTL, Vasco da Gama is a fancier place to grab a ILLY Espresso & a wide variety of sandwiches & other things.
It's yellow walls & blue sea tiles invite your eyes to feast on it's beautiful decor as it's a great place I'd recommend for a fancier coffee date. Being a Portugese style café, they also have the world famous Portuguese egg tarts called "Natas" & a few portugese imports such as Piri-Piri hot sauce, fancy-schwancy sardines tin cans & a few other interesting finds. Also one can buy a whole can of that high-end renown ILLY coffee in the tin cans so you can enjoy it at home.
A classic on Peel street when you need a break from shopping!!View more
