Review Summary

Chez Mère Grand is described as a cozy, welcoming cafe in Old Montreal with excellent coffee and freshly baked pastries, with croissants, chocolatines, and lavender scone highlighted by many visitors. Friendly staff and a charming vibe make it a reliable spot for a morning coffee or a leisurely bite. Several reviews note a warm Parisian inspired atmosphere and in house baking, and the location near the lake and the Old Port is frequently praised. Some comments mention occasional busy times, mixed experiences with staff, and practical details such as cash payments and limited vegan or gluten free options. Overall, the place comes across as a beloved local gem with high quality coffee and pastries and a homey feel that invites return visits.

Just visited this Cafe from Vancouver. Love this place. It's such a cute corner street cafe, with flowers around the door & an adorable yellow bench. The owner is wonderful, super friendly, sharing his story & journey. The Chai & croissants were the best I've ever had. So airy, fluffy & soft. The scones were heavenly. Such a delight to be in a place with good food, great ambience & service. Everywhere I went in Montreal I was told to visit this place & I'm so glad I did.

Le café & les pâtisseries sont à tomber par terre ! Sans compter la gentillesse du propriétaire ! C'est avec plaisir que je reviendrais.

J'adore ce charmant petit lieu super charmant avec sa petite terrasse ! Le gérant est super agréable & les produits sont excellents ! J'adore le cappuccino & j'en ai testé des dizaines dans la ville & celui-ci fait partie de mon top 5. Je vous recommande vivement ce café !

Gorgeous Fabulous Corner Cafe 🌸🌺

The entrance is beautifully designed with floral, located at the corner of a building. Everything about this cafe is carefully designed & sculpted, so much to take in & see. A comfortable place for a day visit, co-working, reading or just people watching. The owner is super welcoming & funny, he is also super passionate & it shows in his excitement to share the day's specialties & hand-crafted coffees.

My boyfriend & I had the grilled cheese, flakey chocolate danish, flat white ☕ & a cold press drink. Spent a brief 30mins absorbing the spectacular space but definitely needed more time. Will be sure to return & try out everything on the menu.

Definitely one of my favorite cafes to capture photos. Enjoy & hope you may find yourself in this captivating place soon.

i absolutely adore this place - the service is lovely & all the employees are such wonderful people. the vibes & atmosphere is immaculate & it’s a smaller, quieter cafe amazing for catching up with people. the baked goods are what makes this place so fantastic & i would highly recommend the ham & cheese croissant.

Came to Montreal to visit & this cafe happened to be near my hotel. It was the best chocolate croissant & latte I have ever had. I had to come back a second time on my way out of the city because it was that good!!

Charmant petit café aux portes du Vieux-Montréal. Personnel sympatique. Le grilled-cheese avec smoked-meat est excellent. Seul petit inconvénient; ils n'acceptent que le paiement par débit.

Ambiance chaleureuse , les saveurs excellentes, le service très bien, bref un endroit où l'on se sent bien que ce soit pour un café ou plus.
J'ai adoré.
