I found this location really good! Amazing coffee, very tasty menu options. Yes it's a bit pricey but it's so reasonable compared to everything else in royalmount. We specifically tried the brunch menu & weren't disappointed.

Une ambiance très agréable dans ce restaurant. La music est à un bon niveau ce qui permet de parler mais de ne pas être écouter. Le brunch est assez bon , un peu fade par moment (manque de sel). Cependant le prix est beaucoup trop élevé pour la quantité & pour la simplicité des plats. Le supplément saumon est extrêmement petit pour 7$ supplémentaire, c'est assez abusif. Attente assez longue pour le service.

As usual the food does not disappoint. We had the Cuban sandwich & the French toast. We always share these two dishes to have a salty & sweet meal. I was happy to be able to make a reservation rather than stand in line like the Old Port location. We will return for sure.

The chicken melt felt overheated & didn't come with any sides, especially disappointing given the high price. However, the iced chai latte was very good. The waiter told us the wait time would be 5 minutes, but we ended up waiting 20 minutes, which was frustrating.

Thought I'd try this location, hoping it might be better than the Old Port spot, which used to be my go-to. Unfortunately, the same issues persist. The prices are truly outrageous for such small portions & underwhelming quality. How can nearly $30 be justified for a tiny chicken melt sandwich? I honestly can't make sense of it.

The food itself was decent, but paying the bill was painful. I genuinely hope the owners take these reviews to heart. This is honest feedback from a longtime customer who used to eat at the Old Port location weekly. I'd love to support the business again if things changed

Bel endroit , beau restaurant. Super service rien à redire sur ça. Cuisine ordinaire & hors de prix pour ce que c'était.

We came on a quiet day (Easter Sunday, when the mall was closed), & the service was excellent & quick. While the food is good, it is not the same as the location in the Old Port. The original location is known for its homemade bakery, including the bread used to make the sandwiches. This location purchases its bakery from another shop; I could immediately tell the difference. It is true that the price is the same at both locations, but the quality of the food certainly is not.

It's not cheap, but I think it's good value considering the very high quality of the food. Everything is very good. I love the chicken melt for an indulgent lunch & the salmon salad for something delicious & healthy. Pastries are lattes are excellent. & no wait for a table at this new location.
