Review Summary

Cha Do Raku is described as a tiny, intimate tea salon with a strong Japanese vibe and welcoming hospitality, where guests can explore a wide and unusual tea selection, observe tea preparation, and enjoy desserts that complement the drinks, including options like rice mochi and a creamy mousse cup. Reviews highlight the high quality and diverse flavors of the teas, with comments about mind blowing green tea and rich, flavorful profiles, and some praise for the authentic and educational experience as well as the warm atmosphere. However, seating is limited and chairs can be uncomfortable, and some note that prices can feel high, though others feel the value justifies the experience and allows multiple infusions. The place is repeatedly described as a hidden gem in Montreal that feels like a little piece of Japan, with a focus on atmosphere, decor, and a sense of ritual around tea. Overall, Cha Do Raku stands out for a tea forward experience that attracts tea lovers who seek authenticity, charm, and a memorable visit, even if space is tight.

We've been to this tea shop twice in a week & absolutely love it! It is very authentic & a little piece of Japan right in Montreal. They have a great variety of imported teas within different price ranges. We did the tearoom at the back both times & is a lovely experience. The owner, I believe her name is Chiro, is very friendly & welcoming. She explains the teas very well & how to make them. The desserts are wonderful & such great quality. They list the ingredients in the menu which is very nice as you rarely see that. We will keep coming back!

Great people. Definitely worth a visit. Teas were great & presented really nicely making them more worth the price. Food was absolutely amazing. Very much recommend Japanese risotto & matcha brownie dishes. Matcha tea done in traditional way, drink fast d/t loss of heat tho. Small amt of tea in cup, but that is traditional & I liked it that way. Very friendly service. Sort of uncomfortably hot in the store area, but a bit cooler in eating area. Very small, only for small small groups. Water is room temp BUT also traditional way. Atmosphere 3 star d/t stools to sit on are uncomfortable for long periods & such a small space for any larger individual.

+++ Wide, well-curated, well-described selection of specialty teas. +++ Kind & attentive service. +++ Beautifully & tastefully decorated. --- Get ready to pay the price. This is an absolute gem. A small & lovely teahouse coupled with a cozy teashop, it makes for an easy win in the gourmet category. A selection of music plays all throughout, at times calming, at times cheery, but always interesting to hear. While the price tags tend to be on the higher end, with them come selected teas in a quality-over-quantity philosophy, along with artisanal teaware in a myriad of lovely shapes & colors.
