Review Summary

Chez Mère Grand is widely praised as a charming, cozy destination near the Old Port, celebrated for its high-quality coffee, fresh house-made pastries, and inviting atmosphere. Many patrons describe the shop as a hidden gem, highlighting the delicious croissants, scones, and thoughtful decor that evoke a sense of being in a small village cafe. While the majority of visitors experience exceptional hospitality and friendly service from the staff and proprietor, a notable subset of reviews reports inconsistent interactions, specifically regarding rigid menu policies and occasional dismissive behavior from management, which can lead to polarizing experiences for customers.

Excellent customer service from the gentleman who was on duty yesterday. I definitely recommend the croissant , very delicious & crispy😋but I must say that the waitresses should be been a bit more discreet with their conversation specifically when it's loud in this charming & quiet café,that s the reason why I put 3 stars for the ambiance.

A café I discovered by chance, & I'm glad I did. The croissant sandwich & cappuccino were both delicious, & the staff were friendly & attentive throughout my visit.

Also the attention to detail given to everything was noticeable in every aspect of the café.

I am visiting from Ontario & Mère-Grand was excellent. Colin was incredibly friendly & welcoming. The cold brew was perfect & the ambiance & music was very well curated. 5/5 would recommend stopping here. Just a 3 minute walk from the Old Port.
