Reviews highlight Côte Café as a cozy and welcoming spot with consistently excellent coffee and warm, friendly service, a small but charming space filled with plants and a sunny outdoor seating area, and a menu featuring pastries and croissants as well as standout drinks like the salted peanut butter latte, Montreal fog, and other house made creations that keep customers returning. The vibe is relaxed and community oriented, making it a reliable stop for a quick coffee, a leisurely visit, or a tasty treat, while the intimate size can mean crowds or limited seating at busy times.
Un super petit café dans notre quartier qui en manque tant . Magnifique accueil du proprio. Dog friendly ( le proprio était trop sympa avec Lilly plus bol d eau a l extérieur pour les amis ) des viennoiseries top fraîches. J avais pris un croissant épinard ricotta excellent . Ça fait du bien d avoir un joli endroit a côté du golden square mile. Toujours aussi bon, sympa & beau .
I've come here several times & their lattes are consistently excellent! Though the place is tiny they have a great selection of delightful coffee beans, & asking Charles about the current stock & what he recommends me (& my boyfriend) is such a wonderful experience! This place is so, so good, each trip here is like a treat on its own!
The cappuccino had lots of foam & a rich, full-bodied flavor. The Montreal fog was delicious & perfectly sweet. A cozy café with warm, friendly service
Merci❤?
I honestly don't even know where to start. I went here two days ago thinking I'd have a decent meal, & instead I got one of the worst dining experiences I've had in a long time. Not only did they get my order wrong once, they got it wrong twice . How does that even happen?
The first time, I brushed it off. Mistakes happen. The second time? It was clear no one was actually listening or paying attention. By that point, I didn't even want the food anymore. I just wanted it taken off my bill. Simple solution, right? Apparently not.
When I politely asked to have the incorrect item removed since I never received what I actually ordered, I was basically told to suck it up & pay for it anyway. No apology. No accountability. Just an attitude that made it seem like I was the problem for expecting to get what I paid for.
Customer service clearly isn't a priority here. If you enjoy paying for food you didn't order & being treated like an inconvenience, this might be the place for you. Otherwise, save your money & go literally anywhere else.
Community, coffee, & comfort. Côte Café is such a lovely oasis in the heart of the city, building a real community with its laidback atmosphere, popping aesthetic, considerate barristas & of course, its fabulous drinks. A not so hidden gem :) Thank-you Côte!

Loved everything from the service to the jungle of a plant hanging from the ceiling. The food was delicious, too. We sat outside & when the wind stopped blowing, it was toasty warm. We'll be back!
It's a small, cozy coffee shop ❤? We came across it by chance & were pleasantly surprised by the warm atmosphere & delicious coffee. We'll definitely be back 💕
