Review Summary

Overall, reviews describe Columbus Café & Co as a welcoming spot with good coffee, tasty sweets, and friendly staff, offering a reliable cafe experience whether stopping by for a quick drink or a study session. The vibe is frequently praised and drinks such as the matcha latte, the bear latte, and a comforting white hot chocolate are highlighted, along with fast service and pleasant seating, and desserts like cheesecake. Several comments point to cleanliness issues like crumbs or dirty tables and floors, and some guests note cold interiors, lack of music, or the use of paper cups instead of porcelain which affects warmth. A few experiences mention language gaps or moments of unwelcoming treatment, though many readers find the staff attentive and cheerful. Taken together, Columbus Café & Co emerges as a popular local option for coffee and desserts, with standout items and friendly service offset by occasional cleanliness and ambiance inconsistencies.

We had such a wonderful experience, thanks to Louise! She was incredibly helpful, attentive, & went above & beyond to make us feel comfortable-whether it was guiding us with directions or assisting us with anything we needed. She also made one of the best matcha drinks I've ever had! What truly stood out was her warm, welcoming attitude & constant beautiful smile. Exceptional service like hers really makes a difference. Highly recommend!

Leur Chaï latte glacé goûte l'eau

I paid my latte with tips included, the girl who made the coffee gave me a dirty cup with green things on top. I myself teach tea ceremony & know it may be matcha. BUT what I ordered was a cup of latte, not matcha tea; that is, the girl made my coffee in an used/ dirty cup which is universally unacceptable. However, when I pointed this out, her coworker, a young guy, kindly remade my coffee with excellent attitude. The time was around 6:45 PM, April 21, 2026.

my trip was great before i decided to stop by this coffee shop for some cheesecake & matcha latte.

cheesecake was good, a bit too sweet for my liking but it was not bad. matcha latte was ok, tasted like watered-down & not made of quality matcha.

felt like i was unwelcomed & looked down upon by server though, may or may not because i didn't know french & didn't know the name of the cheesecake i wanted to order. she tried to help which i was grateful for, but the whole interaction from the moment i stepped into the store was a bit unwelcoming.

the seats & area looked dirty, table was not cleaned & had crumps everywhere. if you're a tourist i wouldn't recommend you to come here, try other cafe shops around the area first. unless you need a space to study/work, otherwise don't waste your time here

This place is perfect for working remotely. They offer a nice selection of pastries & drinks to choose from, making it an ideal spot for both work & relaxation. I spent about three hours here working & found the environment to be very conducive to productivity. Although it did get a tad cold at times, the overall atmosphere was comfortable & inviting. As for the food, we tried the croissant & vegan brownie, both of which were delicious. The mocha & chai tea latte we ordered were equally impressive, with rich & satisfying flavors. The combination of tasty treats, good drinks, & a pleasant work environment makes this coffee shop a great choice for anyone looking to work away from the office. Highly recommended for its convenience, quality offerings, & overall ambiance.

It's a great place to get your morning coffee, a croissant & relax. Great atmosphere & service. We had two croissants déjeuner, one café filtre, one café latte & a cappuccino. The total with tip was $30.87 for three people.

We ordered hot chocolate & latte with a cheese cake. We did not like them because they included too much sugar. Otherwise, the place was good.

Attention à la clientèle près de Crescent Street qui peut manquer cruellement de savoir vivre & de « raffinement » ; à fuir comme la peste si ça vous arrive. Sinon, ambiance agréable avec une seconde clientèle plus jeune & respectueuse des autres dans le café.

This place is perfect to work from. They have a nice selection of pastries & drinks to choose from. I worked from the coffee shop for about three hours & really enjoyed it. It did get a tad cold at times but overall easy environment to be in. As for food, we got the croissant & vegan brownie along with the mocha & chai tea latte which were all solid
