Reviews describe La Finca Café as a bright, cozy spot with a welcoming vibe and a strong focus on breakfast and coffee. The food gets high marks for variety and a homemade feel, with standout dishes like shakshuka, frittata, croque madame, a salmon and kimchi sandwich, and a much loved bagel BLT. Pastries and desserts earn frequent praise, especially cinnamon rolls, croissants and locally made yogurts and chocolates. Coffee is consistently praised for quality, with smooth lattes, bold cortados, and well balanced cappuccinos, though a few notes mention temperature or speed issues. The atmosphere is described as charming, relaxed, and family friendly, sometimes lively and busy with a small space that can get loud, though a back terrace adds charm. Service receives praise for friendliness and efficiency when possible, but lines and waiting times during peak hours are common critiques. Overall La Finca Café comes across as a reliable go to for breakfast or brunch with good coffee, tasty in house food, and a welcoming vibe.
The only place I stopped by twice on my trip to Montreal. Staff is friendly & helpful. But we need to talk about the bagel blt! I am still thinking about it now months later. I like the bagel. I love the filling. Wasn't loving the coffee as much as the sandwich. But I did have the sandwich twice! It's that good. One of the best bagels I've ever had. & the best bagel sandwich I've ever had.
This cafe is amazing! The food is always good, the service is top, the people are friendly & have the right attitude. It's become a regular quick bite spot for me on Sundays. The little backyard vibe they have in the summer is cool too, feels like I'm somewhere else.

Recomendación para mis paisanos mexicanos de visita en Canadá. Es muy rico el desayuno, probé la Frittata (es como un mouse hecho con huevo, arriba queso de cabra, acompanado de lechuga, recomiendo el extra de pan), el café es rico. El desayuno está alrededor de los $300.00 pesos mexicanos por persona.
fantastic food! i had the smoked salmon sandwich with kimchi & it is a marriage made in gustatory heaven. the krunch of cabbage & kimchi complement the smoky smoothness of the salmon. & because life is uncertain, i started with the most decadent cinnamon roll that i have ever tasted accomppanied by a good cappucino. while I'm still looking for an old fashioned cappi, with piles of foam (& no cute design), this coffee did the trick, balancing the richness of the cinnamon roll, & the spiciness of the sandwich.
not cheap, but excellent & out of the ordinary! throw in friendly service & i will be returning to try other delights on the menu.
Only place I went to twice in my 4 days here. Frittata one day when did not want pastries. Light & fluffy, very nice with the goat cheese on it, otherwise very mild flavor. Nice sesame toast. The masala chai was a bit sharp, almost spicy rather than sweet to me, but it grew on me. Went back because yogurt & granola was appealing in all the heavy fare & I was a little sad I had missed it on my last visit. Really is as good as everyone says. The granola is loose, not clusters, wonderful flavor, & the yogurt is super light & fluffy, little sour which is offset by the granola & fruit. The lemonade was a surprise, tart & strawberry infused. I couldn't help myself & got the breakfast danish too, didn't make it through that. Quite good but the mustard flavor is quite intense, & I was frankly just full as it was more than I was needing but I couldn't not try it.
The coconut yogurt granola bowl blew my mind!!! You have to get it, the texture of the whipped yogurt was unlike anything I've ever had & had the perfect ratio of crunchy granola. Wish there was more seating because it fills up quickly & the front seating is usually held off for larger groups. All the baristas are super cool & very nice.
