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.
we went here twice during our stay because it is so so lovely! the breakfast danishes are amazing, but so is all the other food items! great coffee! super friendly service & accommodating to us anglophones who failed to muster up the courage to speak french! merci & a bientôt
L'endroit est mignon mais on nous a servis nos cafés dans des verres en carton alors que nous étions sur place car « plus de vaisselle propre » on a vu mieux en service

Super expérience pour le goûter chez Finca Café ! L'équipe est très chaleureuse & les cookies sont juste à tomber par terre 🫠🍪, nous en avons repris aussitôt ! On reviendra avec plaisir lors de notre prochaine visite à Montréal !
I have been looking for cafes that I can sketch in that aren't too loud or crowded. I came to La Finca on a rainy day so that may have helped but it was really cozy & quiet. They had a slight lunch rush but it was over fast & not disturbing.
The server was kind, the coffee good, & the food delicious. (I had the Croque Madame)
There are no laptops allowed at the tables but they have plenty of comfortable bar seating by the windows that also have outlet access if you need that kind of thing.
I really loved there rigour on use of tables. No taking a table until you have ordered. No use of laptops or taking large tables unless you have two or more people in your party.
Oh, great coffee, great food, warm & friendly service !
First & foremost what an absolutely stunning store! The atmosphere was beyond angelic! My only query is whether or not my'ComfyGO Majestic IQ-7000 Auto Folding Electric Wheelchair' (It's Bronze & Coffee colored [2026 model]) will fit through the door, honestly the amount of zero point turns that I operate while in control of this 4 wheeled roadster is quite daunting at times & I want to make sure I don't wipe out! I did not bring my measuring tape with me last time so I could not judge whether or not the dimensions are proper for this almost all-terrain metal & mesh speed demon!
This place really needs to step up its service. From the moment I arrived, I waited in line for about 15 minutes just to place my order. After that, we were given a table but told we might have to move if a smaller one opened up - which didn't make for a very relaxing start.
My friend & I ordered together, but our dishes arrived 15 minutes apart. He only got his meal after going back up to the counter to ask about it.
As for the food, I ordered the croque madame, which was unfortunately quite bland. Overall, I was really disappointed with both the food & the service. The atmosphere was okay, but not enough to make up for the rest of the experience.
