Dined here 2 times recently, once for lunch & once for breakfast! Both times had a wonderful experience. The sandwiches are delicious!! The bread so fresh & crispy! Loved the sauce! Very pleased!! The plain omelette was great & came with a side of fresh fruit! Staff were friendly as well. Would recommend!!

Used to come here often when I lived in Montréal 10+ years ago. Visited recently, for nostalgia's sake. The ambiance is nice; the food portions are quite small.

We had the pruscuitto sandwich & the club Ferreira & bought the canard & fig & another Ferreira to go so the rest of the family can taste it too. Mocha was also good. Service was great & the place was clean & inviting. Sandwiches come with salad , we had the Greek & the beet salad. Both salads were good too.

Great Portuguese spot for an espresso. Close to the hotel we were staying. I was happy to see the pastel the nata, it's ok not authentic as it would in Portugal. If you are going to serve something, I feel you need to out in the effort to make it authentic, serve it warm w powdered sugar. It was soggy, not good. N like $4! You order at the register n they'll bring you thd good.

Had their natas. The best I've had & I'm not even a dessert type person. 2 star for atmosphere. Place is nice but can smell constant cigarette smell in non-smoke area.

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.

Nice patio in summer time. Smoked salmon is nice but grand cappuccino is just okay(see others pics for reference. It's like a soup, more foamy than creamy). It's a bit expensive for what's included, but it's downtown, so.. maybe ?
