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.

Beautiful little cafe in a convenient location near hotels & Old Port. Baristas are skilled & professional-Jacob & Justine provided great service & made me a delicious coffee. Beans are locally roasted, wide selection of teas. Almond & oat barista quality milks available-unfortunately no vegan or gluten free options available currently. Pastries, sandwiches are made fresh in house. In house syrups as well. Selection of local jams, spices, oils, etc. for purchases-good gifts for tourists. Small terrace outside & plenty of seating inside.

The Chez Mere Grand was such a fantastic jewel in Montreal we stumbled upon while starting our cycling trip. Colin kindly let us store or bikes in the lovely cafe courtyard while we enjoyed our incredible croissants &'Canadianos'. He became our honorary brother! Thank you Colin!
