MELK Café Montreal Restaurant: Menu, Reviews & Reserve (2026)
CaféDesserts & SweetsGluten-free Options

We opened our first cafe in 2013 with the mission of offering specialty coffee in a warm and inclusive environment.

During our expansion, we quickly understood that as a company, our central commitment was to our employees. It is with them and thanks to them that everything else is possible.

Review Summary

Overall, MELK Café is described as a cozy inviting spot with strong coffee and a reputation for tasty home style snacks and fresh scones. Reviewers praise drinks like dulce de leche latte, lavender latte, chai and matcha, and note excellent latte art and quick friendly service in many visits. The pastry selection gets frequent praise with many loving the variety of scones such as everything bagel with cream cheese, lemon cherry and chocolate blueberry, though some say they can sell out early. The atmosphere is warm and comfortable and good for studying or working, but seating is limited and the space can feel crowded and noisy during busy times. Service quality is mixed in a few cases, and a few comments mention a prompt for tipping at payment and occasional lapses in attentiveness. A handful of critiques point to milder or flat coffee profiles and higher prices, yet many call MELK Café among the best in Montreal and a worthwhile visit for those seeking good coffee and standout baked goods.

Coffee was good! I loved the overall aesthetic of the Cafe. Very comfortable & cozy with a fair amount of seating for people even though the overall area was rather small.

Loved the location, perfect as I am staying directly by it at the Sheraton. I would come back & try other items on the menu!

Such a cool little cafe. It has a nice amount of seating, including benches with a table, seats with a table, & bar type seats.
The pomme scone was delicious, & the brownie was perfection.
The latte was really nice, but the maple latte was the perfect amount of sweet & not overwhelming. I will go back for that latte alone!
They have a good variety of drinks at a reasonable price. The people working there were super kind. They speak English & French perfectly. We were able to switch between the two languages flawlessly.
They will be seeing my partner & I again!

Super friendly staff & coffee tasted great! It's a small location so seating is limited but it's a great cafe to pop into!

The Stanley location is really small, more of a place to grab on the go, but overall a nice cafe. The only thing I didn't like was how loud they played the music.

Visited this cute cafe in Montreal. I got an iced lavender latte that was pretty good. Initially I wasn't sure about the lavender syrup, but it grew on me.

The service was mediocre. I feel that the server was quite young & wasn't warm (however I feel that is the Gen Z culture these days)

J'avais peut-être des attentes trop élevées, mais je n'y retournerai pas. Le café & l'ambiance étaient ordinaires & il faisait chaud. & c'est pas donné. Bref, expérience très bof.

Le café est EXCELLENT! Je n'ai même pas mis de sucre & d'habitude j'en met toujours. J'ai pris un biscuit citron gingembre (végan & sans gluten) & il était délicieux. Le seul défaut c'est que le café est tellement mini qu'à moins d'être chanceuse, on doit le prendre pour emporter. Par contre dans mon cas je lui pris sur place.

I came here to pick up some pastries. There's cool vibes but the free wifi is slow as hell & I could not even load the landing page for the wifi for ten minutes. I gave up & went to the Starbucks down the street. All I wanted to do was Google some directions. Jesus, this cafe must be frustrating as hell for people & their electronics.

Cute cafe with cute aesthetics. Their matcha latte is pretty good. My go-to is getting it with almond milk & less sweet. Pretty tempted to get some merch here as well.

Very solid & consistent cafe. They are honestly only missing sandwiches. Their cookie is fire tho.

Je recommande ce café, les gâteaux y sont très bons & le chai latte un délice. Seul bémol c'est de réussir à y avoir une place assise

My favorite cafe!! The drinks are amazing, highly recommend the dulce de leche latte or any of their specialty drink depending on the season. Their chai is also very good! It's small but I always find a seat to study & there's also free WiFi. The music might be a bit loud for some people & there's a lot of people going in & out which might be distracting but I personally don't mind. The baristas are always very nice & froth milk perfectly. Highly recommend!
