Fantastic gem in the old port, great coffee & yummy pastries with a hidden terrace in the back perfect to study/work or read a book. The owner is very attentive & upbeat! I highly recommended visiting this lovely café!

Une halte pour un petit déjeuner dans une ambiance agréable & du personnel très attentif & attentionné. Ça change des endroits standardisés & impersonnels Je recommande & y retournerai bien volontiers

Excellent place to have a latte & croissant. Almond ones were so good. My husband & I ate there each morning this past week while we were in Montreal. Owner even remembered our order. So nice!!

Such a cute spot that's easy to access. Very clean & a good vibe - small seating areas but comfortable & very quaint. We were warmly greeted & helped when we walked in. The person at the counter took his time with us & made us feel liked valued customers, even though it was our first time in the cafe. The food & drinks were delicious! We had the matcha latte with almond milk & lavender syrup, the croissant sandwich, grilled cheese & the cheddar scone. We also received some of the peach ginger iced tea that was super refreshing. We'd come back & definitely recommend this little spot 🙂

A charming cafe with great food & lovely service. The lavender scone was particularly good. We also got the matcha oat milk latte with lavender syrup which was one of the best matcha lattes I've had in a while. Barista was welcoming & thoughtful & I also love the plates they use.

Le meilleur petit déjeuner que nous avons eu à Montréal. Un service irréprochable avec beaucoup d’attention vers le client. Tout était fait maison avec des produits frais & de bonne qualité. Hautement recommandé pour leur croissants & pain au chocolat.

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!!
