This is by far my favorite spot in Montreal for coffee or lunch!
The food is amazing & super fresh. My favorite is their canard figue sandwich with the beet salad - I rarely order anything else it's that good! The Portuguese sandwich is super yummy too. Their desserts are insane as well - especially the chocolate chip cookie & the pastel de Nata of course!
The drinks are always perfect - I always get a tea because they serve it in a beautiful pot, or a Chai latte.

The staff is also incredibly attentive & kind, & the ambiance is very warm & fun. Also a great study spot with free wifi.

I could not recommend this place more!

Un petit coin de Portugal a Montréal. Nous avons découvert cet endroit en février 2024. Nous avons pris un succulent petit déjeuner. Le personnel est vraiment très gentil. Je vous recommande d y aller presque les yeux fermés

L'endroit est très charmant mais la nourriture laissait à désirer, mauvaise cuisson de la viande (on dirait que c'était pré-cuit puis réchauffé, très décevant). Mais sinon le staff était gentil.
