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.
J'y suis allée avec mon conjoint pour boire un café latté. Ohlala! Le meilleur que je n'ai jamais bu!! Il était bon & crémeux en plus du bon service avec le sourire! J'y retournerai avec plaisir!
Flat white to die for! The staff, especially Lily, is so friendly & welcoming! The food is nice & the terrace is very relaxing to sit in & enjoy breakfast or lunch.
Excellent endroit pour un petit café vers 14h00 le dimanche . Café excellent au goût chocolaté. Je recommande cet endroit, simple propre & joliment épuré .

I've visited this lovely cafe a few times to grab a coffee & a pastel de nata after leaving the gym but I just stopped in for brunch on their beautiful patio (heated!) & this has moved up in my ranks of Verdun cafes. I had the toast Beyrouth with a flat white (all coffees were $2 that Saturday afternoon for some reason - I wasn't complaining hehe) & it was so beautiful & delicious. It was the perfect amount of food since I wasn't super hungry so if you are craving more I'd order an additional dish or one of their grilled cheeses. I grabbed a slice of their pumpkin cardamom tart to enjoy at home & it was so flavorful - highly recommend their desserts & pastries. Super excited to come back & try more of their menu, especially during the evening.
If I could give give 10 starts I would. Amazing & cozy ambiance. Great coffee selection, great food selection. Simple & delicious. Staff is super friendly. Highly recommended if you happen to pass by in Verdun !

This cozy little restaurant off the beaten path (surrounded by construction) was unknown to me just a couple of days ago. In an effort to avoid going to the same places, a friend & I visited this establishment for brunch. The Cubano burger was so juicy & delicious that I’m salivating just thinking about it. Also, I’m not generally a fan of French fries, but these were oven baked with the perfect amount of crispiness. The dessert was some kind of homemade thick pancake that was again out of this world. If you’re tired of going to the same place, check out this amazing place with outstanding food & service!
La qualité du service pourrait certainement être meilleure, ne serait-ce qu'en nous saluant quand on entre (surtout quand la place est vide) & en nous remerciant quand on quitte. J'ai pris un matcha qui goûtait l'eau, très décevant.
The food took ong to arrive, but it was definitely worth the wait. The best grilled sandwich I have ever had in my life. It was called la base Verdun Spécial 1er anniversaire.
Accueil très chaleureux avec Nicolas le propriétaire, nous avons discuté pendant longtemps & il m'a recommandé de très bon endroits pour ma balade à vélo, je reviendrai sans hésitation, le café était excellent.
