Incroyable découverte ! De visite à Montréal pour quelques jours, un local nous a conseillé cette adresse pour nos petits déjeuners. Au delà des chocolats chauds & autres cafés incroyablement bien préparés, des cookies, croissants & pains au chocolat délicieux qui feraient rougir bien des boulangeries françaises, c'est aussi & surtout l'accueil & la bienveillance du personnel qui tient toutes ses promesses. On s'est régalés & on a passé de superbes moments, comme à la maison, chez Mère Grand. Merci ! On repassera !

Found this coffee shop on our last day of vacation in Montreal & I wish we had found it sooner! The ham & cheese croissant was absolutely delicious! The hot chocolate was also tasty! Great service & a cool atmosphere. I hope to be back!

We tried many different cafes in Montreal during our 5 day stay & this was my absolute favourite! Great lattes, extremely friendly service & peaceful & unique ambiance. The croissant was more like a cornetto but it was freshly baked & didn't take away from the experience. Would highly recommend!

Cute lil French cafe with amazing, fresh croissants. The iced coffee is very good & made in a cocktail shaker. Heads up they do not take credit, only cash & debit.

Mon café préféré dans le Vieux-Montréal. L'ambiance, le service, la qualité de la nourriture , tout y est! Sans oublier le latté à l'avoine qui est savoureux !
