Visitors describe La Base Café Buvette as a cozy, welcoming spot with a superb ambiance, excellent coffee, and a menu that ranges from tasty pastries and scones to creative burgers and grilled cheeses, plus brunch options; the staff are consistently praised for friendliness, attentiveness and professional service, and the overall vibe is warm with a comfortable back terrace that invites lingering; the experience is widely considered a neighborhood gem, and many plan to return soon; a few notes mention dishes that were a tad salty or overcooked, some timing or speed issues, and occasionally not all drink sizes or prices seemed perfectly aligned.
The only issue I have had with this place is that the music is sometimes a little too loud, which makes it difficult for Conversation or even if you are a student & need to do online classes to concentrate.
Other than that, there are the size of beverages that are not accurate. They have what they like to call, medium, & large sizes. However, it is simply the equivalent of small & medium only.
The small size is very small & the large is simple plain regular size mug.
I need to try their evening, beverages & cocktails however, I am not reluctant because of the size of their drinks & the prices they advertise
Other than that, it is a cute spot hdden away.

Agréable pour se poser pour boire un café.
J'ai pris un mocha, le chocolat est un peu amer à mon goût mais ils ont une bonne variété de lait, on adore 🙂
Une belle découverte ce matin, un endroit sympathique, un service plus que courtois, café & bouffe excellentes un ketchup & confiture maison qui sont un délices . Je vais y retourner c'est certain & une belle rencontre avec le proprio super gentil.
Bravo 👏 👏👏
Amazing staff! Wonderful atmosphere. Good coffee. You won't regret stopping in, grabbing a cool or warm beverage, pastry made with love, or even better a shakshouka meal or sandwich. Consider me a regular- hoping this local business thrives for many years to come!
La bouffe dej est excellente, les prix sont super raisonnables pour la qualité (ce qui devient rare à Montréal), & l'endroit est toujours propre & chaleureux. Le proprio est vraiment sympathique, on sent qu'il est passionné. Ils ont aussi une super belle sélection de vins pour les sunset . Que ce soit pour un brunch tranquille ou un verre le soi

Went for a coffee to-go & ended up staying for the grilled cheese. Both the coffee & the grilled cheese were delicious, & we enjoyed them on the terrace at the back on a nice sunny morning. The staff is very friendly & knowledgeable & the service was excellent. Can't wait to come back on a weekend to try their brunch menu!
Je suis allée bruncher avec une amie ce matin & on a vraiment aimé l'ambiance, la bouffe & le service! On a pris les pancakes & grilled cheese, délicieux :)
Très sympa, j'y retournerai pour essayer le reste!
Nicolas vient de sortir une soupe aux ognons & j'ai été déçu... de ne pas avoir été mis au courant plus tôt !
J'avais l'habitude du super service, de la qualité du café, des mets délicieux, de l'endroit chaleureux, des repas qui font voyager avec des connotations asiatiques & européennes, mais la soupe à l'ognon m'a mis une claque.
