Un petit café dans le « village » de Saint-Lambert ! Le service est excellent & le café est bon.

Beau petit café… Mais pas pour le pain…. Il est dure, même si c'est celui de la journée… nous en achèterons plus à cet endroit.

The owners are rude & don't respect the locals living in the neighborhood. Don't waste your money here, there are plenty of other cafes nearby.

I'd give this place zero stars if I could. There are plenty of small businesses in Saint-Lambert that actually deserve your support, & this isn't one of them.
For context, I lived in this building for four years & there were never any issues, everyone was always cordial & respectful. That makes the owner's behavior stand out even more as completely unacceptable. Not only is he rude, dismissive, & completely lacking respect for the community & its long-standing members, but the way he handled a parking situation with a neighbour was shockingly disrespectful. What should have been a simple, civil interaction was unnecessarily escalated for no reason, showing a complete lack of basic decency & consideration. To make matters worse, there has been no attempt to rectify the situation or offer any apology to the multiple neighbours he has upset.
It's embarrassing to see someone run a local business with that kind of entitlement & disregard for others. Save yourself the frustration & go literally anywhere else. Spend your money somewhere it's actually appreciated, not here. & don't bother going to Webster Café either as it's owned by the same person, so expect the same level of disrespect.

J'adore ce café! Chaque fois que je vais à Saint-Lambert j'en profite pour y faire un arrêt. Ça sent divinement bon, c'est délicieux (les viennoiseries 😍) & le lieux est très agréable. (Gros coup de coeur pour l'image de marque aussi, wow!)

Le quartier est aussi très beau & sympathique - parfait pour prendre un café pour emporter & prendre une petite marche! ☀?
