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.

Staff were friendly & attentive they have the best scones in Montreal I highly recommend all bagels scones for savory & the dark chocolate for sweet but all scones I've tried are pretty delicious unfortunately their white chocolate & cherry scones are no longer available which was my favorite.

There are some ups & downs to this one but overall a good spot. The two things that docked it for us were the noise & cround. I know you cant do much about the amount of people in there but the way the sound bounced around the tiny room really made it hard to talk. That being said, it had a nice atmosphere otherwise with light design & greenery. The main thing that matters is how the coffee is & the coffee was pretty good. They let us have a sample of the coldbrew before ordering which was great. In general the staff was super friendly & fast for how many people were in there.

A small hole-in-the-wall cafe that offers excellently brewed coffee with friendly staff & a cozy interior.

BEAUTIFUL cafe, with a vibrant & friendly staff! Incredible lattes, scones, & atmosphere overall. I tried the citron scone so much that I ordered one of each kind of scone they had! I was not disappointed! Only wish there was more seating, but the latte art was unique on each latte we ordered, & the different coloured saucers were a beautiful edition. Will definitely come again!
