Everything was amazing! We had the avocado toast with an omelette, the salmon bagels, & some coffees. The staff were friendly, kind, & knowledgeable answering my groups many questions. The ambiance in this place is lovely too, so cozy! Will definitely be back.

Really good café to grab something quick & light. Their beverages & dishes are well prepared, & their ingredients taste fresh.
The atmosphere is perfect for a relaxed brunch or to work with a nice coffee. Both the salad & the avocado toast we ordered were just perfect in terms of portions & flavor.
A pocket-size coffee shop. The staff was really nice, they have a few stool for you to sit (not many). Had an americano & a pain au chocolat , both were a great way to start my morning.
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!
It's the most cost effective coffee shop in old port , the coffee & dessert are all top-notch. ( May 2025)
Been here a few times , always maintain a high standard, very delicious desserts. We were not rich ten years ago, now we are ok. But my blood sugar is high & I can't eat sweets. Cet's la vie!

Ate here every morning that I stayed in Montreal & kept coming back for the amazing food, coffee, & kind employees. Must visit & try the almond croissant & bacon & egg croissant sandwich!!
I spent an afternoon to work at this cafe, ate extremely well & absolutely love the atmosphere! You literally feel like you are home & you can tell the dishes are homemade:) I had a large latte & it was serve in a massive cup (which I absolutely love) & fell in love with their coffee as well.
New favourite coffee spot in the Old Port!
Ps: Congratulations on being open for 2 years now! Wishing you & your business many more years to come.
This charming cafe is a perfect spot to take a break & enjoy a delicious coffee & bite. I tried an avocado sandwich that was simply outstanding, & the cappuccino-complete with a choice of soya milk-was equally impressive. The service was both friendly & attentive, & I was fortunate to secure a table by the window. It provided a luxurious setting to savor my coffee while watching the vibrant world outside.
I'll tell you what - the coffee & food here does not miss. Amazing service, delicious soups, & they play the correct type of jazz (anything but smooth). Such a treat!!!

Lovely coffee bakery shop, the latte was good & the croissant was amazing! The staff are really friendly, will come back next time to try their brunch menu
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.
