I only wanted a quick brunch item, so I swung by for the Tamago Sando after a wait of 10 min to order.

I actually liked the industrial vibe of the cafe, matching many of buildings & stations in Montreal, brightened up with the skylights & disco ball. There was more table space than expected from reviews, & I would def come back to work here.

Unfortunately, the Tamago Sando was just okay. It was a bit bland, nothing I'd strongly recommend to others. I didn't try the drinks this time around though.

The sandos are pretty good as are the drinks. Afternoons tend to be busy & usually involve a wait in my experience but is worth it.

Wow what a place. I have been to hundreds of cafes around the world & this has to be one of the best interiors I've seen. Absolutely stunning! Marked down the score on service as it was very slow when I was there & not much interaction with the staff.

Great sandwich & coffee! It's always very busy though because food is great.
The terrace is really nice in hot summer days too & a plus cause it's dog friendly.

Gem of an independent cafe, bistro, sake, DJ vibing joint. Excellent coffee, be quick to buy beans to go. The Matcha is superb.

This fine venue is highly impressive because of the massive number of options it has. There is a great option for every single guest who arrives at the space. The general vibe feels remarkably kind, welcoming, & positive. The staff acts fast & delivers great service. I am fully intending to visit again to see the rest of it.

Service très lent (40 minutes pour un seul sandwich). La nourriture n'est pas très gouteuse, un bloc monstrueux de porc assez fade & un peu de salade entre deux tranches de pain blanc.

You will be pleased by the massive list of options featured at this incredible spot. There is a perfect option for each individual who decides to check it out. The ambient mood is incredibly friendly, calm, & pleasant. The service is generally fast & very well done. I will surely return to this location to explore some more items.
