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.

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.

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.

Je n'ai pas l'habitude de poster des Avis mais là.
Notre séjour à Montréal était court mais nous ne pouvions pas nous passer du brunch chez Mère Grand.
Entre les boissons merveilleuses, la nourriture exceptionnelle, l'ambiance cosy mais surtout le gérant, qui lui est juste génial 😍 (& c'est peut dire).
Bref vraiment allez-y les yeux fermés vous ne pouvez pas être déçu !!!
