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.
We order the Norwegian breakfast. It's a good portion, perhaps for small eaters can share. Friendly & a nice atmosphere. Becomes crowded around 10am. Roughly $30 per person.
Wonderful cafe right next to downtown Montreal! It has a peaceful atmosphere & is always cozy, clean, & comfortable-perfect for spending time with friends. The menu is quite varied, with a great selection of coffee drinks. Whether you're stopping by in the morning or coming for lunch, it's a great spot.
My absolute favorite is the Norwegian breakfast with salmon, avocado, & scrambled eggs. If you're more into bacon & sausages, the Ukrainian breakfast would be a great match. The staff is always nice & helpful.
Highly recommend this place-have a great time while visiting Montreal!
Visiting from Toronto for the weekend & found this gem of a spot. Excellent, friendly staff & the breakfast hit the spot! Especially appreciated the staff accommodating my allergies & taking the time to check in with me while I was dining to make sure I was happy with my dish. This is customer service done right. Highly recommend!

I had the Norwegian Breakfast, & it didn't miss! The hollandaise was perfectly balanced, the eggs were cooked to perfection, & the presentation-flawless. I also, at the suggestion of the very friendly barista, ordered an iced coffee. Again, it was delicious. This place is a must try!
Very quiet spot for a breakfast or brunch. The order taking lady was very rude & dismissive when I was trying to look at the menu as it was my first time here. A small smile can go a long way.
The food was great though I had the salmon on avocado toast which comes with a spring salad. Kind of overpriced imo but still worth trying

This is the best breakfast & lunch place in Montreal!
Food is beyond delicious! Service is top notch!
Atmosphere is amazing!
Don't look any farther just come & see it for yourself!
First brunch in Montreal & so happy we came here! The food was so delicious. We ordered Norwegian breakfast, raspberry danish, avocado toast, salmon croissant & penne pasta. Everything was phenomenal! Would highly highly recommend this place! The seating is limited & usually full so may need to wait a bit I guess.

This place has enough space to sit & enjoy a good breakfast & a coffee. I ordered an avocado toast with sunny eggs. I could say that is was tasty but lacked a little bit of crunchiness. The coffee is delightful & the persons who were there very kind & knowledgeable of their menu. The lady who took our order, asked some questions to anticipate our meal. If you are close & hungry, stop by here.
Such a nice place! We had breakfast here 4 times during our stay. The coffee is very good & the pastries are delicous. The owners looked after us very well!
