J'ai adoré ma visite à la Taverne de Noël du Petit Dep à Montréal ! L'ambiance est vraiment féérique, parfaite pour vivre pleinement la magie de Noël en plein coeur de la ville. On a pris un chocolat chaud avec de la guimauve : un pur délice, super gourmand, riche & parfaitement préparé.
On a aussi goûté un latte au lait d'avoine avec une mousse incroyable - vraiment un des meilleurs que j'ai bus à Montréal. Le service, l'ambiance & la qualité des boissons en font une adresse incontournable.
Franchement, je recommande à 100 %. Si vous cherchez un café cosy à Montréal, une expérience hivernale magique, ou simplement un endroit chaleureux pour un bon chocolat chaud, le Petit Dep est une valeur sûre. 🎅🌟
Came here the other day with a friend & the place was amazing! The atmosphere was super warm & cozy & the service rocked. Our server said her name was Junelyn, so if you get a chance, I would definitely recommend!
Loved the cozy 70's Christmas basement vibe! The atmosphere was warm & nostalgic - though a bit overstimulating with so many people buzzing around, kids stumbling, & hot drinks being carried about. The food & drinks were decent, nothing mind-blowing but still enjoyable. Prices were on the steep side, but the festive ambience, friendly staff, & wide variety of local products & foods made up for it overall.

Café adorable, déco super chaleureuse, accueil au top mais un chocolat chaud 7$30 un peu cher pour le goût :/ mais les cookies sont bons ! La musique est trop forte à partir de 18h :/ alors que plusieurs personnes sont encore entrain de travaille
Je suis allée un jeudi soir avec une amie, on a trouvé le décor super chaleureux & très beau. C'était un peu silencieux, donc l'ambiance j'ai mis 4 étoiles & ils étaient en changement de carte de vin, donc il restait peu d'options (mais elles étaient bonnes!)
Sinon, je recommande vraiment le gravlax, c'était sublime. Overall chouette endroit pour prendre un verre!
Le service était correct.
Le matcha n'était pas top, j'en ai bu des meilleurs pour moins cher.
L'endroit est cozy & chaleureux, cela peut-être un bon espace de travail ou de rendez vous entre ami.

Went for coffee & pastries. Enjoyed it on the terrace. Nice place, but the staff is unrefined / immature. Took a solid 15+ min to get two (2) simple drinks (one espresso, one latte), with hardly any other clients in the caffe. Could have gone faster if staff were more interested in getting products ready rather than in speaking among themselves with their backs turned to the clients.
La Buvette du Dep is a charming café in the Plateau. The ambient lighting & decor make it feel like a calm, cozy environment. I went here for brunch, which they serve every weekend from 9-3pm if I remember correctly.
After craving pancakes, I immediately chose the lemon meringue & blueberry pancakes off the menu. It was sweet, tart, & covered with maple syrup. I loved it, & would probably add more syrup. My partner got the foccacia which was filled with more savory & nutty flavors. We both grabbed matcha lattes, which were pretty standard & just vibed.
The service was very chill, definitely contributed to the cozy environment. It feels like a place that you come to when you want to feel comfort & familiarity.
Overall, I'm rating it a 3 because it wasn't anything extraordinary, but I believe a lot of people would be attracted to the vibe.
