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.

Je suis venue pour un café… je suis restée pour la vibe ☕😌..

Bonne chocolatine, ambiance cosy, & moi qui fais semblant de lire alors que je profite juste du printemps qui arrive 🌸!

Clairement le genre d'endroit où ton café refroidit parce que tu veux pas partir 😂.

9 français débarquent à l'improviste & reçoivent un accueil magnifique ! Une adresse que nous n'oublierons pas.
Le décor est vraiment très joli.

Très bon spot où j'allais après mon cours de spinning, les propriétaires & le staff sont vraiment chouettes!
Les croissants sont mega bons, & je suis très picky à ce sujet…
Dommage que ce ne soit plus ouvert les dimanches, ça matchait bien après mon spinning 😜

By far my favorite cafe in Montreal. I visit every time I'm in Montreal. It's a perfect hidden gem on the edge of old Montreal. The croissants & coffee are incredible. I walked half hour from my hotel this morning just to visit again. Can't wait till I'm here in May.
