A modern yet cozy little breakfast apot. A surprising amount of students & wfh-er's, but it's cool. Got the bagel tower, aptly named, & an absolutely SMASHING chai latte, that thing was like crack what the hell

This place is a 5/5 for me! The people are so welcoming, & I got served by the guy with the hat - he was super nice & attentive. He was clearly French-speaking, but he still made the effort to serve me in English, which I really appreciated. I had the pumpkin soup & it was sooo good - warm, flavorful, & perfect. The food came out quickly, & everything tasted fresh. The ambiance of the place is cozy, warm, & inviting - such a nice spot to relax, catch up with friends, or even just enjoy some alone time. I'll definitely be coming back & recommending it to others!
What a lovely place! Really enjoyed the huge windows & the sun popping through. The person who served us at the front was very nice & comedic; we felt warmly welcomed. The dirty chai latte was excellent. Great place for brunch!
J'ai énormément apprécié ma visite au café Onna. Le service est impeccable avec un staff super accueillant. Malgré le nombre de clients le dimanche, ils restent attentifs & à l'écoute.
Les ordinateurs sont également autorisés pour travailler, pour ceux qui le souhaitent.
Concernant la nourriture, le plat' pancake salé' est très bon, mais attention très bourratif.

I love onna cafe! The drinks are made really well, especially the chai latte which is my usual. The food & pastry options are also both plentiful & delicious. The atmosphere is great, & it's a nice place to both get work done & grab a bite with a friend.
Ils sont vraiment accueillant & la ?nourriture est d'une bonne qualité.
Le roulé à la cannelle n'était pas trop sucré & le goût de canelle était parfaitement équilibré. Il était moelleux & délicieux. La crème par dessus vient vraiment ajouter un côté plus gourmand au dessert.
Les boissons, americano & latté à la châtaigne, ont respectivement été rafraichissante & onctueuse.
L'ambiance est super cozy & superbe pour papoter entre amis !
P.S : Ils ont du merch qui vaut le coût d'y jeter un oeil !

Their iced pumpkin spice latte was amazing! A much better alternative to the starbucks one, definitely coming back. Also very friendly & welcoming staff :)
I had an incredible gingerbread latte. You can really taste the ginger & spices & it came with a gingerbread man on top! I also had a very good hazelnut financier. The service was fast & people were kind.
The atmosphere is cozy & the Pumpkin Spice Latte was delicious, but I was disappointed by the Thai Avocado Toast, which a quarter of the avocado was covered in dark spots. The rest of the avocado was also covered in dark spots but that particular quarter was inedible. Surely whoever made this saw how overripe the avocado was, but still chose to serve this anyway.
Convenient location & super aesthetic café with plenty of space to sit, however the wait time to receive my drink was fairly long (the staff seemed to have forgotten it at first? I wish they were more attentive), & the taste of the matcha latte was below average. Unimpressive, at least the price was decent.
Me & my partner Ordered a chai latte with coffee (dirty chai) & a lemonade. I would be amazed if the chai contained coffee. It was horribly weak & even the chai was poor. My partners' lemonade' was just water mixed with lemon juice. Both felt unimpressed, ripped off & underwhelmed.
Lovely study spot near McGill campus with plenty of seating. If you're hoping to get matcha, you might want to think twice. They didn't have any when I went yesterday. They do have quite original lattes; chestnut, golden, chai etc & a selection of pastries. Def would return to study
Super cute atmosphere, full of natural light & plants. I got the maple latte which was subtle & delicious, & the breakfast bowl which was healthy & filling. Would definitely come here again!

We're from Florida & have had coffee in all 50 states, & the latte we had at Onna Cafe was hands down the best we've ever tried. The flavor was rich & smooth & the latte art was beautiful.
The food was homemade & absolutely delicious, the pastries were perfectly flaky on the outside & soft inside, & the customer service was warm & welcoming-genuinely some of the friendliest we've experienced anywhere.
Our only disappointment? We discovered Onna Cafe on our last day in town, so we didn't get the chance to come back for more. If we're ever in the area again, it'll be our first stop!
Checked this place out & it was okay. Service was slow due to being understaffed. It was more on the slow side when there's only 2 people working the front to cash people out, make drinks & clean the table.
The drinks weren't the best. It has a lot of ice which made it taste more like water (cold brew & ice mocha latte).
The pastries tasted dry or a day old. It may have been better when if it was headed up.
The hot food looked better, so the experience might be better for a sit down than takeout.
A lot of tables were waiting for their food.
Nice cafe. Very good setting & lighting. Also great to work at. I ordered a chai latte. It was a bit too sweet for my taste so added a shot of espresso which made it way better.
A hidden gem. I stayed at a hotel nearby, & I just wanted the closest caffeine fix before I left. I got a triple shot iced latte with almond milk with very little syrup, perfection in every way, I'm definitely buying those espresso beans. & the pudding choco muffin looked like any regular muffin, but oh the surprise, so so good, you can actually taste the delicious pudding & the chocolate core. The vibes are so zen & relaxing, huge glass windows & plenty of sun. The bonus is the very friendly frenchy service. I'm hooked!
Such a cute place, with a warm & friendly atmosphere. I'd recommend the matcha latte & the regular latte, as well as any of the sandwiches! It's located in a calmer area of downtown, which makes it the perfect place to study. I'll definitely be back often.
