Review Summary

Overall, Cafè Veloce is seen by reviewers as delivering good coffee and solid drinks, with notes that a latte has many layers and a flat white can be among the best; the atmosphere and view are appealing and service is often quick and efficient during busy periods. Pastry quality is described as noteworthy and many visits are described as friendly and attentive, though some feedback points to inconsistencies in staff demeanor and occasional unfriendly or slow service. Weekend hours are reported to be variable, with closures at midday and unclear return times, and crowds can be heavy around dinner. A few experiences are marked by poor service where requests had to be repeated and cups were not fulfilled to expectations, leading some customers to say they would not return despite enjoying the coffee. Overall the drinks and setting are praised, but service consistency and scheduling issues can significantly affect satisfaction.

Good vibes in this little coffee shop in the Place Ville Marie esplanade. The flat white was excellent & the baristas were friendly & fast. The shop was not busy at all (on the Friday between Christmas & New Year's). It was a relief to find this gem & avoid Starbucks.

Good coffee, however, they pass on old pastries as new. The baristas will lie about the freshness of the pastries being sold. Received a chewy & very stale regular croissant this am.

Le café est plutôt ordinaire, surtout pour un latte au lait d'avoine à presque 8$... & le biscuit au chocolat était tellement dur, j'aurais dû le retourner.

Looks like a craft coffee shop, behaves like one, but why the hell would they serve badly brewed filter coffee if they don't know how to brew it properly as it taste worse than pikes place that can be grabbed at the Starbucks nearby?

I'm sure their espresso drinks are on point though... I may just ask for an Americano next time.

Beautiful cafe with delicious coffee. I had a latte & was greeted by a very friendly staff. The place is gorgeous, & offers a long pastry counter full of goodies ( they have great vegan options too, I tried the banana muffin & croissant!). Quick & efficient, with great quality coffee. Very nice to see a cafe at the Cathcart!
