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.
My experience was more than amazing. The drinks are great, pastries are delicious & an amazing staff, Charles deserves a raise or a second cafe🫡 Came looking to ask a few questions for a project, Charles took time to explain every single aspect of the coffee industry to help me out. From sourcing, how to store my beans, roasting , types of coffee, the different roasts, how to make an espresso shot ...etc Not just very friendly but he is very passionate & highly knowledged about his work & has an amazing soul. I Even got some free samples An amazing business & somewhere I would be 100 confident possibly even investing in.
10/10 would highly recommend. The small size makes for a way more personal experience. Was greeted my a very welcoming bartender who was very passionate about their job. The food is fresh & pastries are amazing. I'll definitely be back
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.
