Cafeterra earns praise for warm, friendly staff, a welcoming vibe, and consistently delicious food and coffee, making it a favorite for brunch and casual cafe visits in Old Montreal. The menu features healthy, flavorful options like Norwegian and Ukrainian breakfasts, avocado toast, pastries, and well crafted coffees, with many noting generous portions and quality ingredients. While some visits highlight attentive service and thoughtful details, a few comments point to slower service during busy times and occasional inconsistencies, yet the overall experience remains highly rated with frequent returns. The cozy, stylish decor and calm atmosphere, sometimes accented by soft jazz, create a relaxing setting that appeals to both locals and guests.
Absolutely amazing place!! Stunning interior with wonderful artwork. Incredible coffee & pastries!!! We will definitely be back!
P.S. We are back again in this absolutely fantastic place! This time we had their brunch. It was something incredible!! The Norwegian breakfast & Shakshuka were absolutely amazing!! & as for the homemade lemonade- you have to try it! I highly recommend this absolutely amazing small family coffee shop!!!!
P.S.S We were very pleasantly surprised that there is a ban on the use of computers here!! There is a lot of space for those who want to enjoy the atmosphere, read books or have a lively conversation!!🤩😋
Lovely café with a cozy atmosphere, great coffee, & delicious food. Friendly staff & excellent service. A perfect spot for breakfast or a coffee break.
Such a lovely spot! The breakfast was absolutely delicious & the coffee was so good!The atmosphere felt warm & cozy, & the service was super friendly. Really enjoyed my time here!💌
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 🤍
Stumbled into the most incredible Ukrainian breakfast spot in Old Montreal completely by accident & what luck that was. The food was absolutely outstanding: authentic, beautifully presented, & full of flavor. Every detail, from quality to appearance, was perfect. Even more impressive was the warm & attentive service something that feels rare to find in Canada. Traveling from Miami, I did not expect to discover one of the best foods here in our trip to Montreal. A true hidden gem.
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.
Awesome little cafe! Cafe latte & Matcha Late are fantastic. It's was nice that the large hot drinks were actually large!Enjoyed the shakshuka & Ukrainian Breakfast. The raspberry & white chocolate scone was excellent! The raspberry crumble cake was unbelievably good!
The food was excellent! Sandwiches & traditional breakfast. Salmon looked great & I enjoyed the Ukrainian sausage 🙂 Tables are ideal for 2 or 4 but they accommodated us as 6 & we still had space. Good coffee too.

Stopped in for breakfast…My husband had the salmon avocado toast & I had a cappuccino, with a delicious almond croissant! Wow! What a treat! We loved every delicious bite!!
I just had a breakfast at cafeterra , it is a delightful brunch spot with a warm, modern vibe & beautifully crafted dishes that feel both comforting & elevated. The Norwegian breakfast was a standout, light, healthy , & perfectly balanced & the coffee was smooth & rich. Friendly service & thoughtful details made the whole experience feel special.
I highly recommend this place for a good brunch !
