Review Summary

Clarke Café is widely celebrated as a standout destination in the West Island, praised primarily for its generous portions, high-quality ingredients, and delicious sandwich selection, particularly the porchetta and chicken cutlet options. Many visitors highlight the fresh, flavorful food, excellent coffee, and inviting, clean atmosphere, making it a popular choice for quick lunches or casual meetups. While the establishment is highly regarded for its value and staff, it has sparked significant debate regarding its policy toward remote work and students, as the management limits seating and access to amenities like Wi-Fi and power outlets during busy lunch hours to accommodate diners. Although some patrons feel these restrictions are unwelcoming, others defend the business model as a necessary step to manage capacity and ensure space for those coming specifically for a meal, resulting in a generally positive reputation despite occasional service inconsistencies.

Really cool spot in Kirkland. No other coffee shop around like this. Very good coffee, also the beans to prepare at home. The breakfast sandwiches & also the chicken sandwiches for lunch are amazing.

The tall glass windows let a lot of light come in which is great. Highly recommended.

Clarke Cafe has become my regular morning stop on the way to work. The coffee & croissants are great!

I've also tried their lunch, & the food is excellent. Great quality, fresh, & very good portions for the price.

The staff is friendly & the place is well run. Definitely a spot I keep coming back to. Highly recommend!

The cafe is decorated very nicely. My double espresso & pistachio croissant were super good. The other drinks were really poorly done though. The moka was cold & the milk was not steamed properly nor was the cortado. I recommend either choosing an iced drink or just a plain espresso to avoid this. Sandwiches were fresh & good portion!

Great little sandwich place in the West Island, delicious & good value. Great coffees & sweet treats as well. We usually take out but there is a sitting area as well. Would highly recommend!

we ordered an iced americano & a matcha latte, both were really good! BUT the highlight were the chocolate croissant & the scone- they were amazing! they also sell sandwiches & desserts, as well as other Italian products such as spreads, pastas & sauces! would recommend to anyone who wants to have a little coffee break or a little study session, the atmosphere is good & the staff are very friendly! ☺?

I've recommended Cafe Clark to many of my friends as I myself love going there at least once a week. Majority of the time, I order my usual cappuccino & grilled vegetables sandwich. It has been my favorite. But today I had the most disappointing sanding since the Cafe has opened. They vegetables were definitely not grilled, the bread was so soggy that the bottom portion was stuck to the paper in the basket. Over that, the bread wasn't toasted. As a chef, I hate to complain as I know working in a kitchen ,you rarely get appreciated for the work you do. Will I go back, probably yes. It could have been any reason for this mishap, new cook, too many customers or whatever. I just hope that on my next visit, I will have compliments not complains.
Positive feedback is, service, behind the counter employees & ambiance is excellent. & so is your coffee.
