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.

I've been here twice now & both times I've had amazing times. The first time I came with friends & was surprised by how good value the food was for how nice the food is, how beautifully it's decorated, & the amazing service. The second time I came with family for my birthday & had an incredible time- Melissa was so kind & made it very special. The food & coffee were also great. Would definitely recommend!

Tick Tok brought me to Mama C on a slushy grey Friday afternoon in the old port. (March 20th) The decor is absolutely beautiful! I appreciated the very warm & cozy atmosphere to catch up on some emails. I especially loved seeing all the real tropical plants that made me feel like I was on vacation. The menu is simple but reasonably priced & the coffee was delicious. Major props to my waiter Théo who was absolutely delightful, kind & highly efficient! It was his service that brought me back later in the day with my partner for a second meal. Definitely recommend.

Great food, great staff, & a great vibe overall. The place is beautiful & chic, & it is definitely on the pricey side but worth it for the experience.

I stopped in while walking by & decided to try a chai latte & a pastry. Both were excellent-the chai was wonderfully balanced, & the croissant au chocolat was delicious. The space itself is beautiful & inviting. The service was also exceptional; Melissa was especially kind & patient while I practiced my French. A lovely experience overall.

Beautiful decor, mediocre drinks, terrible service. We waited so long for the food, asked multiple times & been told the food is on the way each time. The last time we asked our waitress, she told the kitchen was ran by only two people (not very convincing on a busy saturday morning) & the food would arrive in 2 minutes (which did not). We ended up canceling the food. At least she was kind enough to offer us our drinks for free to make up for the inconvenience. The place is beautifully decorated, in the heart of Old Port, but a very disappointing experience.
