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.
The people working there were so kind & patient while we took so long to choose & edit our meal, the food was so so good, absolutely delicious, the breakfast sandwiches were the best I've ever had. The atmosphere was nice they played good music.
Much more than just the coffee shop around the corner. It has a nice selection of coffee & tea, matched with a very authentic menu with many delicious dishes to choose from. The bowl smoothies are very good & so are the sandwiches. The service is also great!
Mintar stands out as my top choice among coffee shops in Montreal. The exceptional staff radiates warmth & hospitality, while the culinary offerings surpass expectations with their sheer excellence. This establishment provides an ideal atmosphere for extended study sessions, fostering productivity & comfort. Mintar continually impresses with its innovative menu, ensuring a delightful experience with every visit. Without hesitation, I wholeheartedly recommend Mintar for a spectacular cafe experience.
Great place. It's a nice little cozy cafe with super kind workers. The food is great, tasty, homey & healthy. The ambience is calm & comfortable. Would totally recommend & can't wait till my next visit to Montreal to come again
I used to go to the owner's old restaurant by Concordia all the time, & their quality has not changed - it's only gotten better. Staff is super kind. Food is insane flavourful & amazingly portioned.
Nous avons testé ce lieu peu de temps avant la fin de notre voyage, quel regret de ne pas l'avoir fait avant. Nous avons commandé deux "sous-marins" délicieux & des pancakes sirop d'érable & bleuets, qu'on a tellement aimé que l'on en a re-commandé.
