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.
Great place to stop, relax & enjoy as you tour through old Montreal. The hostess was kind & helped us through the menu. Also, it was clean & well kept compared to other places I visited.
Très bonne nourriture & endroit très populaire. Par contre, nous n'avons pas compris pourquoi nous devions payer avant de recevoir la nourriture. Nous aurions préféré payer après le repas afin de pouvoir laisser un pourboire en fonction du service reçu.
Le service en français gagnerait aussi à être amélioré. Nous avons été accueillis en anglais; nous répondions en français &, heureusement, notre serveuse nous répondait dans notre langue, mais revenait ensuite toujours à notre table en anglais.

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.
A wonderful place to eat deliciously & have a good time. I came here by chance & was pleasantly surprised by the service & atmosphere. The food is fresh & very tasty, the drinks complement everything well. The staff is very friendly & the service is at the highest level. I highly recommend this place.
A perfect way to begin our visit in Montreal! The service was friendly & timely- the food was healthy & tasteful- the coffee & tea were the perfect accompaniment. We will be back again!
Me & my husband loved everything about this cafe! The cafe was clean, the food & drinks were delicious, but most importantly, the staff was amazing… They made as feel welcomed! Highly recommend to everyone to visit Cafeterra!
I love this place! I go here regularly when I visit Montreal. Everything I've tried there is delicious & the atmosphere is super pleasant & comfortable! Strongly recommend!
