Loved this find.
A wee cafe in a quiet part of town. Such a good vibe, great coffee & delicious food.
Very laid back with interesting decor.
A wonderful place to take a break from our busy lives.
The staff will make you feel incredibly welcome.

Eating breakfast & having our coffee here (3/30/2025) & this little café is absolutely exquisite.

For drinks, I had an iced latte with maple syrup & my husband had a long espresso. Both were excellent. My husband enjoyed that the espress was quite strong, & my latte had an excellent flavor.

For food we had ham & cheese croissants, I had a bostock, & my husband had a lavender scone. Again, everything was scrumptious! The ham & cheese croissants (homemade pastry at the café) were a revelation, & my bostock was the best sweet pastry I've had in a very long time. The lavender scone was amazing, with a lovely lavender scent that didn't become a soapy taste on the palate.

The ambience is lovely, with an old-fashioned vibe & an open bakery. The smells of the fresh baked goods wafts over you enticingly as soon as you open the door

To boot, the owner/proprietor is an absolute gem of a human! Funny, personable, helpful, & eager to provide excellent service.

Everyone should come visit Chez Mère-Grand Café & Épicerie!

I got a scone & it was very dry, as if it had been made days ago & not stored properly. I also got the smoked salmon bagel, I had been made the day before or few days ago. The salmon slices were dry on the edges, the crème cheese was dried out & the cucumber looked like it was out of date. For the price, I expected better. The coffee is good though.

We had coffee there two years ago, went back this year, one server was very rude pretending not understanding English trying to intimidate my spouse. He was very rude, not funny showing zero respect for their patrons.

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.
