Mintar consistently earns praise for its warm, welcoming staff, cozy atmosphere, and standout coffee and food, with cottage cheese pancakes, a pistachio croissant, and a range of breakfast and sandwich options highlighted as must-tries; reviews note careful preparation, genuine care in every detail, and a menu that also considers halal options, making it a reliable go-to for mornings with friends or a quick bite before a study session. While the coffee and drinks like cardamom latte and cappuccino are frequently praised, a few visits mention burnt or over-extracted espresso and drinks that are a touch too milky, and some describe tight seating and occasional noise; nonetheless, service remains friendly and attentive and staff take pride in their craft. The cafe is repeatedly described as a hidden gem in Montreal, a warm, affordable spot for breakfast, lunch, and casual meetups where guests feel at home and return for the overall experience.
Incredible sandwiches! Everything was fresh & full of flavor. The staff were very kind & welcoming. Easily one of the best sandwich places in Montreal.
Mintar Coffee Shop might be a small spot, but everything about it is truly amazing. From the moment you walk in, the aroma of fresh coffee hits you, & you immediately know you're in for a great experience. Their coffee is rich, smooth, & flavorful, perfect whether you're grabbing something quick on the go or sitting down to sip & relax.
The food is just as impressive. Mintar offers a wide variety of breakfast options, including omelettes, sandwiches, fruit dishes, & smoothies. Everything tastes fresh, well-prepared, & satisfying. It's the kind of place where you can enjoy a healthy bite or indulge in a comforting breakfast, depending on what you're craving.
Even though the shop is small, the atmosphere is warm & welcoming, & the staff are always friendly & attentive. Their great service makes the experience even better.
Mintar Coffee Shop is definitely a gem, whether you want a quick breakfast to go or a cozy spot to enjoy your morning coffee, this place delivers every time. Highly recommend!
One of the best brunch places in Montreal!

Perfect in every way. Beautiful presentation. I loved this cafe & I came here 3 times in 3 days while at a conference nearby. A gem! I had lunch twice & the sandwiches were delightful.
Quick stop for sandwiches for lunch. Egg & halloumi went well together & they grill the inside of the bread for the sandwich. Went back the next day for a cortado which was good & a croissant which was ok. Indoor seating only.
Delicious coffee with all manner of dairy & non dairy options. Sandwiches & pastries all worth returning for. Stayed at an Air BnB nearby & was happy to find Mintar & stop by every morning of my visit!
Be it coffee, be it the sandwiches, the flavours are on point.
I recommend the classic sandwich & the chicken sandwich over the rest. It's delicious.
The place is a vibe !

Mintar is a somewhat hidden gem in this area. Perfect matcha latte & hazelnut latte drinks to go with beautiful & tasty smoothie bowls & delicious omelette sandwiches served with a side of seasoned potatoes were exactly what we didn't know we needed but really enjoyed! Service is friendly & atmosphere is cute & relaxing. This is a great place to take a break & recharge, study or work if you have to while enjoying some food or drink. They have smoothies too. We would enjoy a return visit!
The food here is 10 star good ,you should not leave Montreal without eating their pancakes & sandwiches,all the foods are fresh & delicious,plus the atmosphere is friendly,I highly recommend
