Review Summary

Cafeterra is widely regarded as a charming and cozy destination in Old Montreal, celebrated for its welcoming atmosphere, beautiful decor, and high-quality breakfast and brunch offerings. Many patrons praise the delicious, fresh food, particularly the avocado toast, shakshuka, and diverse selection of pastries and coffees, while also noting the intentional, relaxing environment fostered by the policy against laptop use. Although the majority of visitors experience friendly and attentive service, some guests have expressed dissatisfaction regarding the practice of paying before receiving their orders, occasional inconsistencies in service speed, or rigid seating policies during peak hours. Overall, it remains a highly recommended spot for those looking to enjoy a well-curated dining experience in a peaceful and aesthetic setting.

Cozy little eatery with great food & service. Vegetarian Avocado Toast is amazing!

I had the avocado egg toast (without the hollandaise sauce) & it was delicious! The fruit was refreshing & good portion. The avocado & egg with crunchy onion crumble on top was so yummy! Cafe was clean, inviting & noise level was just right!! Our waitress, Olana, was lovely & attentive. Highly recommend!

Very opulent place. Avocado toast was good. Lemonade was one of the best I have ever tasted. I suspect they use enhancers but if they managed to make it naturally , nothing like it. Cafe filtre was good, I have it with extra cream.

One thing I felt odd was they made us pay as soon as they took our order. Not sure why they do that. I tipped because it's a good place, the servers are young & I am a tourist, but they really need to reconsider this.

Coffee, hot chocolate, mocha, & all the food (shakshuka, bon matin sandwich & avocado toast) were absolutely delicious!

Came here for lunch & really enjoyed it. Got the smoked salmon croissant & wife got the avocado toast. We both loved it & the side potatoes are great as well! Great stop for lunch in old town.

I like to support Ukrainian owned businesses & this one was conveniently located near Notre Dame.
In terms of food & coffee, it was pretty average & didn't match the many other great breakfast spots in Montreal, so I wouldn't return.
I had the vegetarian avocado toast, & felt the bread was a bit soggy - a crustier sourdough would help. The espresso macchiato was very dark roasted & also not my favorite.

The brunch menu & pastry selection were both very enjoyable. The avocado toast & shakshuka had great flavor, & we really liked the overall food experience. The only area that could use improvement is the service. After finishing our main dishes, we ordered pastries to enjoy at the table. Shortly after, a large group arrived, & the manager approached us to ask when we would be done, as they needed to accommodate the incoming guests. We let her know we were already planning to leave before finishing the pastries, but the interaction felt rushed.

It would be helpful if the staff allowed guests to finish their visit without feeling pressured to vacate the table, even during busy periods. A more discreet or courteous approach-or offering an alternative solution-would make the dining experience feel more welcoming & relaxed.
