Drop in to meet Frank and the Clarke crew. Have a coffee. Buy a sandwich. Walk out with the quiet confidence of knowing that personal service and family-run businesses are alive and well. And here to feed you.
Clarke Café is described as a solid go-to for hearty sandwiches, with generous fillings and well balanced flavors, and a strong emphasis on quality bread, especially for chicken cutlet and porchetta options, plus tasty pastries and reliable coffee. Reviewers value the variety and customizable ingredients, noting large portions and good value, with the sandwiches commonly cited as the main draw. The atmosphere is welcoming and relaxed, with a simple stylish interior that can get busy in the mornings and on weekends. While the overall impression is positive, several accounts point to inconsistency in recent visits, including missing fillings, slow or distracted service, and occasional order errors. Some mentions of language or customer service frictions exist, but many encounters are described as friendly and efficient when things run smoothly. Taken together, Clarke Café appears to be a dependable spot for a substantial lunch or coffee break with strong sandwiches and desserts, alongside a comforting vibe that encourages repeat visits despite occasional hiccups.
Beau café avec une belle ambiance & de très bons sandwichs. À chaque visite, je me régale ! Je recommande particulièrement le sandwich au poulet avec tomates séchées.
I recently visited Clarke Café (PSC), located at 1207 Rue Shearer, Montréal, QC H3K 1H8, & it's a pretty cool spot! 😎 The place is unassuming, with a simple & laconic (minimalist) interior, but it feels welcoming. It has a good number of tables for its size, which is convenient. 🛋? tables
What really stands out is the food! They offer a large selection of sandwiches, various baked goods, & all sorts of other tasty treats. 🥪🍰 You won't be short on delicious options here! The coffee is also really good - strong & aromatic, just how I like it. ☕👃
&, as a bonus, there are lots of beautiful staff members! 😉 It adds to the pleasant atmosphere.
I definitely recommend checking out Clarke Café (PSC) if you're in the area looking for good coffee & a great selection of food in a relaxed setting!
Première fois à Clarke & le sandwich au poulet était vraiment très bon ! Qualité prix top. Le gâteau à la carotte était bon aussi cher à mon goût pour la portion vendue. Je recommande & reviendrai :)
Nice cafe to try out I tried their mortadella sandwich that is packed with meat & as well their Ceasar salad. Good portion sizes & a pleasant atmosphere. Would recommend trying this place out .

One of us was hungover, it was time to go back to Toronto, & we have to lug our luggage in the rain. First meal of the day! This café was near our Airbnb, so we had it saved to go on our last day before our train leaves. It was relatively empty when we came in, around 1130. Design is so nice, so spacious & so aesthetic. It gave the vibe of a classic diner, but with their use of Green & cream colors, it gave a very modern & comforting twist. As usual in Montreal, the cashier will go "bonjour hello", & you pick which language you want to continue. There's a small menu in front of her the list of the sandwiches available. The sandwich bases are all the same, it's mostly the meat you choose, & two toppings. I chose the Fantino & cannot recommend it more. It's SO good. In fact, I boast to get my exact sandwich, fantino with sundried tomatos & their hot sauce. TRUST MEEEE I am salivating thinking of it like it was that good. One thing I notice is all Montreal cafes have merch. It's cute too. There's plenty of seating & you can just sit there in their comfy chairs for hours to be honest. Their coffee was great as well :) If I'm in Montreal again I will definitely be back, thank you!
Best sandwiches in the city! Amazing coffee! Omg !! HIGHLY RECOMMEND ♥️♥️♥️ PS: Best macchiato since I was in Italy this autumn 🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹 & dogs are allowed!
We used Clarke Café to cater a customer appreciation event & we were very happy with the results! The sandwhich variety was wonderful. They were very fresh. So tasty in fact that many of our guests went back for 2nd & even 3rds! They were aslo very easy to work with & exteremely accomodating. We highly recommend them.
Clarke est rapidement devenu une institution dans le quartier & je recommande fortement de luncher à cette sandwicherie ! Situé dans le quartier, l'ambiance est intime & dynamique. Le personnel est hautement compétent & bilingue : la cuisine roule comme une armée & la nourriture est EXCELLENTE. C'est selon moi du S tier à Montréal.
La merch est INCROYABLE : j'ai pas eu le choix de prendre une casquette. Les produits fins sont super & il y a une bonne diversité de produits.
Perso, je recommande la slush de limonade & le sandwich de poulet panné (chicken cutlets).
Pour le stationnement : soyez patien, c'est dans la rue & il y a peu de places.
