Overall, LaKafe MTL is praised for its cozy, stylish space and standout Vietnamese coffee, with favorites like Vietnamese egg coffee and salted coffee, and creative drinks such as coconut matcha cloud, guava matcha, and strawberry matcha; the menu also shines with fresh onigirazu and croffles that pair well with matcha, while the staff are repeatedly described as friendly and helpful and the cafe is a great spot for studying thanks to big tables and free wifi; some notes include that the space is a bit small, prices are on the higher side, and a few orders can be slow or a dish like unagi onigirazu being a touch heavy or burnt, but overall the drinks and bites are delicious, the experience is reliable, and many reviewers say they would return.
Great spots for drinks & foods. I've tried many from onigirazu, croffle, matcha & coffeee, they have been delicious. Today I had matcha latte eggfoam & the eggfoam is great for croffle dipping though!!!! (In vietnam we dip banh mi in eggcream & eat them together ☺?)
Great place to get matcha, I adore the coconut matcha 💚 they also have pretty original selection of drinks like guava matcha & egg coffee. Pair it up with an onigirazu & it's a great combo! Fast & good service
Visiting Montreal & this is our first breakfast in the city. I will be thinking about this meal every day. We got the salmon onigirazu, the salmon croffle, matcha latte, salt coffee & egg coffee. Everything was absolutely delicious.
I was craving for the Vietnamese egg coffee then I found this little & chic coffee shop around the corner of my Airbnb's neighbour. Love supporting local business & their coffee tastes like home ❤?
Lakafe, I am really impressed with your Vietnamese egg coffee as well as Vietnamese salt coffee. I kept trying & trying & most of your peers are not doing them as well as you in Montreal. Only you & another one shop are doing the genuine / real Vietnamese egg coffee & Vietnamese salt coffee. Keep up with the great work. Next time I will try your coconut matcha cloud as well as your golden osmanthus (many serious coffee lovers I know are in love with those two). Bravo!

Tried the egg coffee, it was interesting! Definitely something you should try at least once. I would definitely go back to try other coffees, it's a really nice cafe.
I recommend the brown sugar latte & the croffle!

One of closet version of vietnamese's egg coffee you can get in Montreal. Creamy sweet + strong flavour vietnamese coffee is the love you need to wake you up in the morning.
It will also wake up ur stomach & it shall demand some onigiri of unagi to complete ur good morning
While visiting Montreal I went to this place to get lunch 3 times. The onigiri sandwiches are so good! I tried both the salmon & shrimp. Their Vietnamese Egg coffee I also tried, & I will be back for another one. It was new & interesting, incredibly smooth & creamy & just the right amount of sweetness. I spoke to one of the owners & he was delightful & very accommodating. On another day I spoke with a regular staff member & he was also so kind & sweet. I recommend this place 100%
Love love this new spot!! Super friendly staffs & their food & drinks are impeccable 😍 we tried the matcha guava jasmine drink & the egg foam matcha & both were delectable!! The food was also soo delicious! Will definitely be returning :)
Only had the drinks. Sweet but So refreshing & delicious. The cloud coconut matcha. YUM! Egg coffeee. Also YUM! Maybe can ask for half or no sugar (idk)
I will go back! Thank you!
