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.

Nestled into a cozy corner in old Montreal, this split level cafe caters to tourists & locals alike with kindness, care to detail, & with grace. Food is fresh & the coffee beans can also be purchased by the bag.
If you order an iced cafe latte, you will be pleased to see what patience & care they take to create this refreshing & energy boosting beverage. It's like alcohol mixology & they even use a shaker to chill the espresso, creating a smooth frothy'crema'. All I can say is go.
It's clean.
It's affordable.
Cool layout & atmosphere.
Air conditioned.
Kind bilingual service.

Worth your time & energy to go.

Colin, the proprietor dubs it,'the little village café in the big city.' I agree. It's just around the corner & the service is quick & friendly. They serve the perfect cortado to go. All shots are double, so no need to specify.

Not only did they let Muki in, Colin even gave her three cute little treats (which Muki would only eat once we got home).
