Review Summary

Mintar is a cozy and highly regarded café in Montreal, frequently praised for its delicious sandwiches, cottage cheese pancakes, and high quality coffee offerings. While most visitors highlight the fresh ingredients, generous portions, and exceptionally friendly staff, some diners note that the small seating area can become crowded or noisy during peak hours. Though a few individuals experienced issues with inconsistent food preparation or slow service, the overwhelming majority of reviews describe the establishment as a welcoming gem that offers great value and a warm, comforting atmosphere.

I got there at 4:30 & ordered a smoothie. They kept the door open, people kept walking in, but they kept turning them away saying they were closed. Their schedule clearly says they close at 6:00 pm (it's the reason I went there to work) At 5:00 pm they told me I had to leave because they had to close. Also they were not serving food by 4:30. I don't understand how a cafe can close 2 hours before they say they do with no explanation?? I think if they're going to do that they should change their hours on google maps - & let new costumer know right away before they order. Also- the smoothies are SUPER plain. It's just the fruit & milk, not worth the money there.

Petit restaurant charmant & compact. Plats délicieux & personnel aimable. Souvent plein ! Prix raisonnables. Tous les sandwichs sont excellents, mais il manquait un peu de sauce. Les pommes de terre étaient correctes, mais manquaient de piquant & de sel. Les bols de smoothie sont délicieux, mais un peu fades à la longue. Difficile de trouver une place aux heures de pointe, alors arrivez tôt !

We are visiting from Alberta & delighted to stop in at this little Cafe & Deli. We ordered the chicken wrap, & smoothie. Everything was made to order, Super Fresh & very hot, just how I like it. A must try if you're in the area.

Randomly walked past this place on a Saturday morning & decided to pop in & honestly it's one of the best spontaneous decisions I've made in a while. The menu has this really cool Middle Eastern influence running through it that sets it apart from every other café on the street. I got the halloumi egg sandwich & I was still thinking about it the next day, no exaggeration. The breakfast sandwich is also really solid, well seasoned & a decent size, nothing feels skimpy or rushed.
Coffee wise I had a cortado & it was exactly what it should be. Whoever is making the coffee clearly knows what they're doing. Also tried one of the smoothie bowls & that was a great shout too.
The inside is really cozy & the music they play is actually good which sounds like a minor thing but it makes such a difference. Staff were super friendly & helpful without being over the top about it. Asked a few questions about the menu & got real genuine answers.
Been back a handful of times since that first visit & it holds up every single time. If you're anywhere near the Plateau & you haven't checked this place out yet you're really missing out. Go get the halloumi sandwich & you'll see what I mean.
