Review Summary

La graine brûlée comes across as a quirky, charming cafe with bold, eclectic decor and a vibe that makes it a go to spot for working or catching up with friends, and it is noted for staying open late which is appreciated. The coffee is repeatedly praised as well prepared and tasty, with a wide range of drinks and snacks and a terrace that is popular for lingering. The space offers many seating options and coworking areas, plus unique touches like private nooks and walls you can write on, creating a creative, study friendly atmosphere, and there is even local merchandise to browse. The staff are generally friendly and helpful, and there is a noted commitment to reducing waste and sustainable choices. It is often described as a must visit in the village and one of the best places in town for studying, socializing, and enjoying a casual meal or drink. Some criticisms appear: a grilled cheese that misses the mark, occasional slow service or crowded hours, higher prices, and occasional uncomfortable seating or sensory issues in bathrooms. Some patrons mention extra charges for takeout cups or portions and size expectations for drinks, but overall the experience remains positive and the place is seen as a standout, vibrant and inviting hub for work, drinks, and socializing.

Cute little cafe to visit. Nice selection of coffees & they also have cocktails. There's also a photo booth, crane machine. I really like they also have a small boutique with local marchandise.

Quirky urban café serving coffee as well as cocktails. Large variety of seating & coworking arrangements. Trendy progressive vibe.

Very good place to work on laptops. Service was very slow, but the staff was kind. They also sell cocktails.

J'hésite presque à mettre une bonne review car c'est une sacré pépite & j'ai peur que ça devienne surchargé! Super café, pas mal bcp de choix (même des cocktails?) & beaucoup d'espace pour travailler. C'est oui!!!

Baristas du tonnerre, ambiance inclusive & amicale! Le bagel frittata, le chocolat chaud & le cocktail Manon sur la terrasse sont mes incontournables dépendamment de l'humeur du jour. Le café est plutôt amer, mais ça passe pour se réveiller entre deux travaux universitaires;)

L'ambiance du café est sympa, beaucoup d'espace pour s'asseoir, on peut charger nos appareils électroniques. Mais le café n'est pas très bon, le matcha non plus, ils m'ont chargé le cocktail à prit régulier durant l'happy hour, ils te chargent pour prendre à emporter & aussi pour la paille, si les gobelets étaient plastiques j'aurai comprit mais ils sont en carton.
