Me & my husband loved everything about this cafe! The cafe was clean, the food & drinks were delicious, but most importantly, the staff was amazing… They made as feel welcomed! Highly recommend to everyone to visit Cafeterra!
I love this place! I go here regularly when I visit Montreal. Everything I've tried there is delicious & the atmosphere is super pleasant & comfortable! Strongly recommend!
I recently discovered an incredible café in the Old Port, & it was truly an aesthetic experience. Honestly, it's so hard to find places like this in Montreal nowadays - every detail is thoughtfully designed, from the color palette to the smallest elements of the decor. Everything feels harmonious, stylish, & full of character.
The food (breakfast) was absolutely amazing: fresh, flavorful, & clearly made with care & quality ingredients. I also want to highlight the staff - they were incredibly kind, polite, & attentive, making the whole experience even more special.
The atmosphere is calm & relaxing, with soft jazz playing in the background, no rush, just a perfect place to unwind & enjoy the moment. It's definitely a spot I'll be coming back to again & again 🤍
Excellent experience for our family on our visit here to Montreal! Lovely atmosphere & delicious food. The staff was excellent & we would recommend this spot 10x over to anyone visiting old Montreal!
