Overall, Lili & Oli comes across as a warm, family friendly cafe with a cozy vibe, ample seating, bright light, and a back terrace that adds to the charm. The staff are consistently friendly and quick, and the space welcomes children with toys, making it easy for families to settle in. The coffee and drinks receive mixed notes: many praise the quality and variety, including good lattes and cortados, while a few find the coffee bitter or the matcha latte too strong; self serve toppings and a range of teas are a plus for some, though a couple of reviews mention disappointing drinks. Pastries and light bites are generally well regarded, with several mentions of fresh scones, muffins, and breakfast sandwiches, while a few say the food is not the strongest part of the experience. The cafe can be busy, which suits the lively vibe but can affect quiet work or long chats, and a weekend policy restricting laptop use is noted as both a relief for some and a drawback for others. Outdoor seating is a highlight and the overall atmosphere makes it a good spot for quick bites with friends, family time, or a relaxed read.
Love it here! My boyfriend & I had our first date here 7 years ago & ever since then it's been a place we love to go back to. I love that they use coffee cubes for their iced coffees/lattes! & they're little snacks & treats are always tasty! The staff is always so kind too :)
After a long cycling, i tried to look for a cafe in the avenue wellington & i discovered this cute cafe while walking. The place looks really cozy & spacious, with using the soft wood color, yellow lighting & calming music, good for people that want to work, study or just hang out & socializing. They also have the outdoor garden for people to hang out with some exception like no laptops, smokes, & dogs. Their coffee is also good & tastes not burn. There are not a lot of pastry collection, but when i visited the café, they ran out of the pastry.
Super petit café, le café est excellent & je recommande beaucoup le matcha latte! Belle ambiance, surtout sur la terrasse avec cette belle chaleur sans oublié l'accueil chaleureuse du personnel! Un de mes cafés préférés dorénavant. 🌸🪿

I ordered a croissant & a latte on a Saturday morning. It seems to be a popular family destination. Lots of kids. Everything was prepared quickly & efficiently. The croissant was buttery & delicious. The latte was very good but maybe the milk was a little bit too hot. Overall, I was quite happy & will stop by again. I've been back a few times. They have consistently good coffee. & great baked goods. The over-hot milk from the first latte was an anomaly. They really seem to care about quality & do things right.

A great coffee shop & very nice atmosphere! They have a summer garden that will soon be opening. Their menu choice is abundant, scones, cookies, breakfast sandwiches & many more. & the food is made in house. They have many coffee & tea options, but I especially like the latte with macadamia milk. I highly recommend for people who want to hang out with friends, families with kids & for working with a laptop. The staff is very nice & the owner usually bake the scones over the weekend.
