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.

i went there a couple of time but today i ordered a trio sandwich muffin. The chocolate banana muffin was looking suspicious but i ate a bit & discovered FLIES inside it on a rotten banana piece. I complained & what did i get ? another similar rotten-looking muffin. I dont know why i'm writing on google, i should report that to the sanitary dep ------------------------- Edit: After discussion with the HQ, they're taking that seriously wich is for me a proof of good faith & hopefully, an isolated incident

It's modern but showing wear on the tables. No custom or simple bagels everything is a premade sandwich. Their cortado's was horrible, bubble foam... But the drip (filter) coffee was fine. Not very busy at 9:30 most weekend mornings.

Pior chocolate quente que tomei na minha vida, simplesmente nao tem gosto de chocolate. 8$ mais mal gasto em Montreal. Tive que comprar o bolo de chocolate pra tirar o gosto ruim de boca, ele era gostoso pelo menos.

Do you remember the first time you rode a bike? Or what about the first time you received a passport? Life experiences such as these exceed our understanding of normalcy because they intrinsically remind us of our humanity & dignity. Likewise, I can say I remember my first time visiting Columbus Café & Co Crescent on 1370 Saint-Catherine St. W. - It was a cold February morning & at an ontological level I was curious to taste their mocha & chocolate hazelnut muffin. I was pleased with the order & service experience. Neither the Barista nor I brought up any controversial topics & we exchanged the warmest of superficial pleasantries. (The irregularities in cadence were undeniable) Needless to say. I went on to grab a seat & was eager to enjoy the environment let alone the warm beverage & delectable. I sat down at nearby table & sitting on the table was a sign. It wrote the following that Laptops were forbidden on the table. In smaller writing it wrote "Teleworkers, we love you but for parity, we're keeping some tables available for others. Thanks for your understanding." Being the teleworker that I am, it would be a bit of understatement to say my world was changed from those three little words "we love you". To know that as teleworker I'm loved by Columbus Café & Co... My heart was fluttered with emotions as I truly felt like I hit truly hit the psychological jackpot because I could now relinquish my feelings to this Café. I could receive the stability & emotional certainty I've been deeply craving. I could now truly believe that no matter what I do, how I act, what I say, I'm loved by this café. Folks.. to be honest.. I found the mocha pretty good, & the muffin a touch underwhelming. But when you're loved... When a café provides such fealty & steadfastness... Well.. You really can't put a price tag on this type of commitment.

Better than most of the similar Cafe places but with one issue: dirty interior. Spider web 🕷 & dirty windows, dirty floor. Other than that, it is a decent place to hang out & work
