About us

Designed as a natural extension of the restaurant, the café offers the same culinary signature in a more relaxed atmosphere, a fluid space where every moment of the day finds its own flavor.

Morning and Midday
From the first espresso to the midday spritz, the café comes alive with the energy of cafés from around the world, enhanced by contemporary elegance and Mediterranean charm. On the menu: specialty coffees, pastries, refined toasts, fresh bowls, salads, smoothies, and sandwiches, accompanied by a beer or a light cocktail. A gourmet and varied offering, crafted to please every palate.

Aperitivo and Evening
As night falls, the space transforms into a cozy and lively gathering place. Oysters, tartares and crudos, premium caviar, mezze, and small bites are meant to be shared alongside vibrant cocktails and Greek wines. Mini sandwiches and light snacks designed for aperitivo or dinner complete the experience, in a warm and refined ambiance that invites you to linger under the stars.

Mama C Café, accessible, refined, and full of life, becomes the ultimate Old Montreal destination to savor, from morning to night, the energy and charm of the Mediterranean.

Très mauvaise expérience à l'entrée. Le personnel était vraiment impoli & insistait pour que je reste à l'intérieur alors que je voulais simplement m'installer dehors pour prendre un café & repartir. Elle disait qu'ils avaient beaucoup de réservations pour la soirée, alors que moi aussi j'avais réservé. Heureusement, Kamel a été très gentil & professionnel avec moi, & il m'a même offert le café gratuitement. Merci à lui pour son excellent service

A disappointing experience to say the least, I received the wrong order which included items I am allergic too. As well this to-go order took 25 minutes when no ingredients needed to be cook or even reheated. The younger staff was very helpful & kind but the older waitress was condescending & messed up the order.

L'endroit est magnifique. Le staff est très serviable . La nourriture est bonne. Il y a certaines choses qui ne sont plus disponibles en fin de matinée, c'est un peu dommage. Mais à part ça , tout est parfait ! Je recommande grandement!

Le cadre est superbe, & l'ambiance est charmante. Mais leur carte « café » s'arrête à 15h… Donc plus de viennoiseries & de pâtisseries après 15h par exemple…
OK je veux bien qu'au Québec, certaines personnes soupent à 17h… Mais quand on ne te sert plus de pâtisseries à 16h dans un café, il y a de quoi être surpris.
Donc j'ai pris un dessert à la carte. Une tarte au chocolat & pistache qui était excellente, mais au format & prix d'un restaurant étoilé : 18$, hors taxes, hors tips… hors sol !
Bref, oui pour le cadre.
Non pour la cohérence.

Un café un millefeuille 30 dollars avec le pour boire, la deco est sympa 😊 après m'avoir servi le café le Serveur a pris 20 minutes pour me servir le millefeuille.
Sinon accueil très professionnel pas chaleureux, on me dit pour un café vous avez une heure seulement à table. Je souhaitait m'installer d'un du côté des plantes en me dit réservée b to b alors que 15 minutes après deux filles s'y installe & aucune autre personne n'a eu la remarque de une heure.

We came to Montreal with friends & had the chance to visit this very cozy café. The atmosphere was lovely, the food was delicious, & the staff were incredibly welcoming.

We also had the pleasure of being served by Melissa - she was exceptionally friendly & kind, & truly went above & beyond to make sure we had a great experience. So, thank you, Melissa!!! Highly recommend this place!

Très joli cadre avec une ambiance agréable dès l'arrivée. Le service est impeccable, attentionné & professionnel. La nourriture est bonne, sans être exceptionnelle, mais reste satisfaisante pour un brunch. Je recommande pour passer une belle matinée dans un endroit calme & chaleureux.

Si j'avais pu mettre 6 étoiles, je l'aurais fait ! Décor & ambiance haut de gamme, excellent service. Le sandwich brioché aux oeufs était délicieux. J'ai adoré !

I'm sold for the place, I'll make it my place for sure, I'll come back multiple times with friends, family & even alone.

However, one of the young waitresses is rude an racist, she needs to value customers. Next time I see her, I'll talk to her manager about her rude attitude.

One more thing, the service is great but super duper long.

I really enjoyed my visit to the cafe (haven't been to it when it's a restaurant) & it has a really nice vibe to catch up with friends or get some work done. It has a beautiful interior & the it's very calm & the seats are very comfortable. Their orange juice tastes amazing. Their pastries are a little hit or miss but not too bad.
