I was smitten by the taste of the Mariposa martini. You read right, a novel elixir created by none other than Victor (cafe owner & mixologist extraordinaire).
The extensive liquor collection is something that this cafe should be proud of.
Now for the'music', Mariposa is a music den, the best way to enjoy is when music is LIVE. This cafe has such an extensive line up of talent, one needs to check the website frequently.
Ambience, one can easily go from a negative mood to a satisfying mood, by the warm & friendly staff that work there.
They really do make you feel like you are part of the Mariposa community.
Thank you to Victor, Laure, David & Fiona (peekaboo, I see you over the counter!)
See you very very soon!View more
I have been a patron, as a diner, music listener & musical community member, of Mariposa Café for the past nine months & feel I finally found the place I've been looking for in Montréal.
Owned by a super talented Montréal musician, Mariposa Café hosts a diverse range of authentic musicians who attract a warm, genuine, multi-generational crowd of music appreciative people.
They offer a wide variety of dishes; even vegetarian. Their small staff are always courteous & patient. The owner, who bartends, has created his own marvellous version of a Cosmopolitan from his eclectic liquor collection (Note: it is blue rather than red).
The atmosphere is subtle & quirky, with local artist's works, for example, paintings by Susan Shulman, & tons of music memorabilia from the owners' personal collection.
I could go on but then the review would be too long for the modern attention span.
Thank you Mariposa Café & friends. See you soon.View more

Enjoyed my evening here, listening to the musical artist , who played for almost 3 hours straight. Only ate some sweet potato fries, which were very good, & had a glass of wine. I guess it's the norm now that a small glass of wine costs over 12$. Which I find is a little much.View more

Fabulous piano with Dave Hines. & the food was very good. REAL beef burgers. Great fries & superb warm service. A great discovery & in our Hood!!!View more
Great service & it's a quality place for live music. Overall Mariposa is a good experience, but the food side of things is mediocre. Some prices on the menu are bonkers. $22 for a veggie burger meal? $12 for three samosas? Some of the food decisions are questionable too, like throwing greasy fried onions on top of the samosas (which are supposed to be hand food) & then serving them with sour cream. With the high prices I thought they were paying the performer, but apparently they don't.View more

La place est ordinaire mais le groupe de musiciens était fantastique!!!View more
An intimate setting to listen to live music. Victor, the owner of Mariposa, brings many wonderful performers to the venue & is a very gracious host.. His new chef definitely has some tasty culinary skills.View more
