Flers Café serves a specialized selection of artisanal pastries and high-quality coffee beverages designed for a refined palate. The menu focuses on traditional baking techniques, emphasizing flakey croissants, dense pain au chocolat, and delicate fruit tarts that highlight seasonal ingredients. Each preparation reflects a commitment to balanced textures and precise flavor profiles rather than excessive ornamentation. The interior features a minimalist aesthetic with clean lines and functional seating arrangements intended for quiet concentration or focused social interaction. Patrons encounter a methodical approach to espresso extraction and bean sourcing that prioritizes clarity and brightness. This establishment provides a focused environment centered on the technical execution of classic continental café staples. The consistent quality of the baked goods ensures that each item maintains its structural integrity and distinct flavor from the first bite to the last.
Flers Café is widely celebrated as a standout destination in the Plateau, consistently praised for its warm, elegant atmosphere and exceptional house-made offerings. Patrons frequently highlight the variety of delicious, perfectly balanced flans, specifically the praline and pistachio flavors, as well as the high-quality coffee and freshly prepared sandwiches. The staff is generally described as friendly, welcoming, and helpful, contributing to a cozy and inviting experience for both solo visitors and groups. While the establishment is a popular spot for socializing and enjoying a break, some customers have expressed disappointment regarding the weekend policy that prohibits laptop use, as well as occasional challenges with noise levels during busy periods or specific interactions with management.
The most delicious sandwich ever!! We had the sandwich with the omelette, & the almond croissant. They made my day.
& the staff were very kind & helpful. They were out of the sandwiches, yet they went out of their way to help us!!
I'd come here everyday if I lived here.
Les flans & cafés sont vraiment bons, par contre le service, nul! La dernière fois, je suis allée avec une amie, nous avons commandés des boissons, en payant par carte, il y a bien entendu le % pour pourboire (la personne fait les cafés, mais pas de service à table, alors pourquoi les tips?), & quand on récupère nos boissons, il nous demande de ne pas oublier de mettre nos tasses dans le bac quand on aura fini. Sérieux? La prochaine fois, il faut qu'on fasse la vaisselle aussi? Maintenant, je vais dans un autre café, ou le patron & serveurs nous sourient, nous amènent nos boissons à table, ne nous demandent pas de mettre la vaisselle dans le bac, & on donne des pourboire avec plaisir.

Mozzarella, tomato, pesto focaccia sandwich was *chefs kiss*! Got it warmed up to-go, & it was seamless, a street strollin' bite indeed. Sandwich stayed in tact, flavours were delicious, the focaccia was buttery smooth, everything melded together in harmony. A true symphony.
Très bien ! Gros + sur les flans qui sont il faut le dire une petite dinguerie gustative
J'attends avec impatiente le café filtre !
A bientôt

Amazing coffee. I've never had something so unique as a cereal coffee. Friendly staff who answered our questions. This place will definitely become a staple to my visits to the Plateau.
I'm really saddened to write this because I used to love this cafe. However, the recent changes are impossible to ignore. The vibe feels off, the staff seems disinterested, & the food quality has taken a major hit. It's no longer the 5-star gem it used to be.
The place is cute & spacious. The pistachio croissant was delicious however the only thing that I find really weird is that we cannot use our laptops on weekends.. it's a little disappointing.
