I ordered a flat white. The coffee art was excellent, the service was excellent, but the coffee tasted like nothing, mostly milk. I also thought it was expensive for what it was. I've had cheaper flat whites in other places & they tasted much better. I know it's my personal taste but well... I wouldn't come back. Plus the coffee shop is tiny & not very comfortable to stay in.

Very cute shop; went for the scones! They were fine; moist & well made but perhaps lacking in a flavour oomph (especially for the apple scone). The lattes, though, were excellent! There were only two flavours & the shop was busy. Go early!

A cute little shop, nice to have a quick grab. The store is pretty small so it took a while to get the drink & not too many seats. I do like my ice latte. 🙂

Small but cozy coffee shop. Limited seating space but found a spare stool to wait out the rain. Maple latte was smooth & tasty.

Coffee was okey little over extracted at the time maybe because it was quite early in the morning & raining... I asked to pour left over milk in a singe espresso cup for my baby & they charged me $2.50... none of coffee shops ever charged me left over milk I just needed tiny amount for baby to sip. Not whole cup of milk. She said she understood what I needed but still cost $2.50.

I always like going to Melk when in Montreal. A small shop that allows for limited seating has a cozy vibe. My go to is the matcha latte & all the snacks are delicious. I recommend going if you need a little pit stop from the crowds on St. Catherine.

Average coffee shop with accommodating seating, quick service & reasonable prices. The baked goods were not particularly good & were rather dry & the drinks not very sweet against personal preference. There are double doors for entry & a few ledges to get in.
