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.
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!
On my way to the MG hospital, I stoped at this little coffee place & I met an Angel. I can't rate the service he gave me on a scale. All I know is that it came from the heart.
Café chaleureux & personnel sympa toutefois 7$ avant taxes pour un espresso tonic me semble quand même exagéré (le prix des cafés glacés n'était pas affiché & pour cause...)

Visiting US & Canada from down under & haven't found a better flat white so far than from Charles at Côte Café. Small shop with larger than life friendly service from Charles.
I've been in for their delicious coffee & that deserves a 5*. But the other day I needed a banana, sounds weird, for a recipe & no one in the area had any do I decided to ask the barista, who I think is the owner, if I could buy a banana from him. Not only did he give me a banana but he didn't charge me! What a great guy!
Je suis passée par hasard devant le Côte Café aujourd'hui & suis contente d'y être entrée! La barista souriante & agréable m'a préparé un délicieux flat white à base de café ZAB! Ce petit café comble définitivement un manque dans le quartier: du café de spécialité avec des viennoisseries de qualité. Je recommande d'y entrer & de profiter de la belle température pour s'installer sur la terrasse de ce tout petit café! 10/10 super mignon! Merci xx
