Got the poutine & chai latte, & both were great. Freshly fried fries, savoury gravy (surprisingly it's vegan), plenty of cheese curds, in good proportions. Chai latte was legit too, with fresh ginger & cinnamon. Tasted my friend's latte & it was also very rich & flavourful. Good chill vibe where everyone seemed to be having a great time. Prices are reasonable in a city where everything seems so expensive these days. Would come back anytime.

This is a popular café with a cozy vibe. Nice decor & ambiance. I only had a cup of tea so I can't comment on the food.

Seriously good food with no pretence. Everything is homemade & delicious. The décor is perfect. Engaging server/cook/owners & super friendly. The burger on a homemade bun with salad - out of this world. & I can hardly wait to go back & have another heavenly pop tart.

The wait for the food is a bit long but it was fresh & decent. The price is a bit expensive but the beverages are 10/10!! Staff who took our order was super friendly & nice!

L'endroit est duper cozy. Belle ambiance! Le service etait cool aussi. Mais le café n'étais pas à la hauteur. Le chocolat chaud non plus. Ils ne goûtent rien, & mon café froid était translucide. Peut être une prochaine fois!

An absolute go-to Latin Quarter cafe which puts a deliciously unique spin on everyday classics. The service & staff are super nice & friendly. I enjoyed the Déjeuner Burrito, banana bread, Avocado Toast not to mention the surprisingly mega delicious Vegan Mac & Cheese! Lots of attention to detail & lots of bang for your buck! Great goodness for the tummy that leaves you wanting to go back again & again.

Coup de coeur :) Je recommande fortement. L'ambiance est vraiment plaisante, le latté délicieux, le staff beaucoup trop gentil. Je vais revenir assurément travailler dans ce beau petit café unique.

Really nice food. Prices justified by almost everything being handmade.

Generous portions at an extremely reasonable price. Tried the avocado toast, breakfast burrito, pancake, pop-tart, gingerbread cookie & coffee. Everything was satisfying. There's a laidback yet fun energy to this place. The owners are super personable, you really sense the love that goes into everything they're doing. Def recommend.
