While many visitors praise the cozy, bohemian atmosphere and friendly service, the experience is often characterized by busy crowds and inevitable wait times due to its popularity.

Délicieux mais très coûteux. Mais je comprends ce qui justifie ces prix.

Absolutely spectacular lunch here! I had the chicken melt with a dill potato salad on the side & a raspberry lemonade. All of it was incredible, & I would visit again next time I'm in Montreal!

Les sandwichs sont délicieux, mais c'est « overpriced ». Impossible de réserver, mais on peut avoir une table très rapidement.

The best French cafe in the northern western hemisphere. Give me a cappuccino & a warm butter croissant with fresh preserves & I'm in bliss.

Genuinely the best panini I've ever had in my life. I was hesitating on getting the Cubain since I hate pickled things & cilantro, but it was the perfect little kick of it: not too overwhelming. The cheese & the pork were DELICIOUS & I would fly to Montréal again just to eat this.
