Côte Café comes across as a tiny, charming neighbourhood spot housed in a thoughtfully refurbished carriage house, with a warm, plant filled interior and a relaxed, welcoming vibe that many describe as community oriented. The coffee is repeatedly praised for quality and variety, including rich cappuccino, the Montreal fog, salted peanut butter latte, rose latte, and a range of latte options and matcha, with some noting that hot drinks can be enjoyed iced. Pastries and small bites such as almond croissants, butter croissants, danishes, and spinach and feta pinwheels, along with sandwiches, are frequently praised, and many appreciate the option to sit outside on a pleasant patio or take drinks to go. The service is often highlighted as friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable, with staff making guests feel at home and the overall atmosphere described as cute, charming, and inviting, even during busier times. A few reviews mention limited indoor seating, heat in the summer, bees outside, or lines at peak times, but the general sentiment is that Côte Café is a beloved local gem worth returning to, a reliable stop before Mont Royal where one can relax or linger.
À la recherche d'un endroit cosy pour se reposer en sortie de musée, voilà que notre chemin nous mène à Côte Café. Excellente découverte ! Un iced matcha latte amande délicieux & une serveuse adorable. Un petit café tout mimi qui me reverra bientôt sur sa terrasse calme. Merci encore pour cette petite glace rafraîchissante.
It is located near our Apartment & we checked it out today . It is a small place with very friendly service . The coffee as well as my iced Matcha Latte was very tasty & we enjoyed it in front of the cafe . Definetely coming back here again .

Super cute place, very local & the batista is very nice. We tried their Mocha latte, Montreal fog, Hot latte, & iced latte. They were all very good & we will definitely be going back. If you're in the area & looking for a nice cozy coffee place, I would recommend going here!
What a gem! This café is super small but big enough to warm your appetite & coffee needs! First, I gotta say, the barista was super nice! Very friendly, conversational & always smiling. Very helpful to give recommendations as well. My friend & I went on a Sunday afternoon, & we ordered a latte, the Rose Mocha & a grilled cheese spinach & feta danish! It was all delicious we had to order another danish to go.
I would just hope they bring back the Salted Peanut Butter latte, it was the best drink I've ever tried!

What a lovely, lovely café! The space itself is so warm, inviting, & relaxing to the spirit. I was happy the customer before me took some time to give his order so I could take a moment to sit & just enjoy being in that space. It gave me time to look around & appreciate the ambiance. The super cute tables outside, the plants inside, the eclectic & grounding feel of the place just makes you wanna sit there, maybe read a book, & enjoy your coffee. The service was top quality. The only bummer to my experience is that the matcha latte was so good I finished it fast, ha! Will definitely go back & most definitely recommend! That café is a VIBE. Thanks Charles for the delicious beverage & for setting up such a vibrant coffee shop!
Super cozy, the actual plants, lighting, wood. Loved being in there. The person at the counter was great, she was single handedly taking care of everyone & everything & people just coming in & going. My wife got a Fall Spice latte that she loved, we got a grilled cheese that was excellent. I got an Americano, I didn't like the beans/roast but that's subjective & on me & my preferences. Too bad we were only visiting, or else would have loved to go again & actually sit & take in the ambiance.

I love this place. I pass it almost every day on my way down into the city, & everything I've had from them is great. The latte is so yummy & the chocolate chip cookie is heaven. Not to mention it's just such a cool spot!
