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.

Upon entering, a waiter greeted us & seemed to misunderstand or miscommunicated to us what she wanted as we told her we were here to eat, but she lead us to a coffee table. This is during winter time with not much traffic in the shop. We were also given 1 menu, (2 pages back & forth) for 3 people so we requested another menu which someone else behind the counter responded by practically sliding it on the counter. The food was good & the atmosphere, other than the service, cozy. The service could use some work on the communication personally.

Never coming back. We were seated at a very small table for three people. When we asked for a larger table, we were told we could only get one if everyone ordered food - even though the restaurant was not busy at all. This felt very disrespectful.

I ordered the chicken pesto pasta, which came with only a tiny piece of chicken & was extremely oily. On top of that, we were given only one menu for three people. When we asked for another menu, the woman (who I assume was the owner, as her photos were on the wall) rudely pointed at the menu on the table instead of providing another one.

Overall, very poor service & disappointing food.

Expérience très négative. Ce café donne une impression peu honnête, car les clients ainsi que les employés semblent être incités à encourager la publication d'avis positifs, ce qui remet sérieusement en question la crédibilité des notes affichées. L'attitude de la propriétaire était désagréable, hautaine & peu professionnelle, tant envers les clients qu'envers le personnel. La qualité des produits laisse également à désirer : le lait dans mon café était manifestement tourné, ce qui soulève de sérieuses questions sur la fraîcheur & le contrôle des produits utilisés. Le service était mal organisé : bien que nous ayons commandé en même temps, j'ai reçu mon plat après que mes amis aient déjà terminé de manger, sans excuse ni explication. Compte tenu de l'ensemble de ces éléments, l'expérience a été très décevante. Je ne le recommande pas, ne croyez pas aux notes affichées
