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.
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.
A cozy spot for an afternoon coffee or matcha. The staff are very nice & remembers my preferences. It can get super busy in the morning of work days. I would probably not come during that time, because the line can get quite long & the wait time as well. Their cookies are also quite tasty. They pair well with their Latte, but maybe a bit too sweet when eaten by themselves.
I liked the banana bread ,it was not too sweet , & the oat milk latté was great! You take your coffee from the counter & find a spot to sit down. Washroom is located outside of the coffeeshop, in a public parking lot ,which I didn't find it convenient as it was not clean!
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.
Comne toujours excellent café mais malheureusement le personnel ne vous adresse qu'en anglais . Excellente nouvelle un nouveau Melk est ouvert a l'immeuble Sunlife grand , confortable & en prime l'excellent café de Melk . Le personnel edt accueillant & parle français . Bravo Melk
