Mintar is described as a cozy, welcoming cafe with a warm vibe and a small, busy space that often feels intimate yet lively. The coffee program gets plenty of praise for variety, with cappuccino, latte, cortado and non-dairy options frequently highlighted, and some reviews noting thoughtful preparation and friendly service. The menu is celebrated for pancakes, especially cottage cheese pancakes, pistachio croissant, and egg and halloumi sandwiches, along with hearty breakfast options, smoothies and bowls; many mention the sandwiches and pancakes as standout, and some note careful halal prep with separate boards. While the atmosphere is repeatedly described as charming and the staff as helpful, some critiques point to occasional flaws such as burnt or bitter coffee, overly foamy or bubbly drinks, soggy or oily sides, and dishes that are good but not exceptional, plus seating is limited and the space can be noisy. Overall Mintar emerges as a beloved breakfast and coffee spot with a loyal following, praised for its cosy ambience, strong coffee and tasty pastries, and recommended for casual mornings and study sessions, while acknowledging room for consistency and comfort in seating and some menu items.
Go-to cafe in Montreal. Perfect place to study with the best food, coffee & treats. You NEED to go here. Also the staff is remarkable; always attentive & never fail to make you feel welcome
Great service. Ordered a latte & yogurt parfait. The latte was amazing. Yogurt parfait was loaded with fresh fruit & homemade granola, delicious! So happy I decided to try something different this morning!
Cute cosy cafe with good coffee & tasty breakfast. We had two sous-marins (sub sandwich, one chicken & one veggie), iced latte, iced americano, almond croissant & Nutella horn. (We ordered more than two person portion.) Only high tables & bar style tables downstairs & big one table on the (half) upstairs, but we liked the vibe. Employees were friendly & nice as well! Would like to visit again.
Oh my goodness me!!! I had the L'ouef Halloumi & iced Macha latte & it was amazing, hats off to the chef. Donna is so kind & sweet, even when I asked for more potatoes & hot sauce 😁. As someone who is in Montreal for the first time, what a lovely experience. The cafe is super intimate & so cute :) I will be back tomorrow morning for the smoothie bowl 😊
I enjoyed an iced latte & my family had a smoothie bowl & sandwiches. Portions were generous & they looked delicious. Warm & welcoming staff. Older cafe decor & space for one large group & several small groups of two.

Everyone who works here is SO lovely. Genuinely some of the kindest people I have ever met. Would recommend anything from here. I usually get the chai latte (amazing) & the ham & egg sandwich. My favorite cafe in Montreal!!!
