I knew the place was going to be stylish & I was still blown away! They truly combine industrial design with stylish decor & art tastefully. I'm glad they provide space for festivals such as Montreal Street Photography Festival & building a community around what they do. Their signature matcha while quite expensive was the best one I've ever had. Their coffee game is also up there! Can't wait to be back to try some more.
First time visit to the cafe & gallery last week & I have to say I can't wait to come by again. If you appreciate minimalist design, art, & coffee you'll love this spot. Staff were friendly & the latte I ordered tasted great, no complaints. Milk alternatives available. Inside / outside seating. Although the space is used mainly as a gallery it still felt intimate when sitting down & catching up with a friend over coffee. We also met a sweet pup & their owner that day as well (yes to dog friendly cafes)…it just made the visit a whole lot more memorable.
We tried the iced matcha latte, iced vanilla latte, iced chai latte, & the iced hibiscus; they were not worth the money. The coffee beans were bitter & sour. The matcha was overpriced. We've tried matcha/coffee from Toronto, LA, New York, & many major hubs in North America. They were all much better & reasonably priced. (For all those commenting this was the best coffee/matcha… please review your tastebuds). The matcha was $13!!! That's an insane price for matcha & the cup wasn't even full. Don't get me started on the 25 cent charge (per drink) if you're getting takeout… newsflash, this isn't BC. The iced chai latte was unbelievably sweet even after adjusting the sugar. At least the girls working there were so sweet (just like that chai latte). We didn't try any pastries so can't really comment on those but the drinks were NOT worth it, don't waste your money! All for supporting small businesses however this was extremely disappointing considering the amount of the good reviews :(
Really good coffee, matcha, & pastries, alongside jewelry, art, & fragrances. The staff is super friendly. A great way to spend the morning before shopping in mile end!
Great service & great coffee! Even though the coffee is a little pricey it makes up in its distinctive taste & service.
The barista was working alone, but was quick, efficient, & very friendly. His service was excellent, & he even brought customers their orders to their seats, which was a nice touch.
I've been here a few times & have always enjoyed it, which is why this experience was disappointing.
When I paid cash, the cashier told me,'Let me know how much you want back.' I was confused because the amount of change I was owed was already displayed on the screen. When I asked what he meant, he replied,'Like how much you want to tip.'
I was honestly taken aback by that. A tip is always up to the discretion of the customer, especially at a coffee shop. In a normal situation, the cashier gives the customer their change, & then the customer can choose whether or not to leave a tip.
What bothered me wasn't the option to tip, it's the implication that a tip was expected before I had even received my change. Being put on the spot like that felt uncomfortable & left a bad impression. I've always liked coming here, but this interaction really turned me off. Unfortunately due to this interaction I will not be returning.
