Paquebot Café comes across as a cozy, welcoming spot with excellent coffee and tasty pastries, where a warm, friendly staff and a relaxed vinyl atmosphere create a memorable vibe; many reviews highlight thoughtful service, a great place to work remotely thanks to reliable wifi, and comfortable seating upstairs with a nice view, while others note that some drinks and desserts are only average, the menu is limited, and a few items can feel overpriced or underwhelming compared with the hype; overall it is a dependable cafe experience that stands out for its authenticity, atmosphere, and cookies and that frequently makes it a favorite stop for visitors and locals alike.
The place feels a bit overrated. While the atmosphere is nice & the staff are very friendly & welcoming, the coffee & dessert were just average. I ordered a cappuccino & a cortado, & neither really stood out. Overall, it's a pleasant spot to visit, but the quality of the drinks & desserts didn't quite match the hype.

A lovely little café! I popped in for a cappuccino after the spa - & it was great! The coffee was flavorful, aromatic, & beautifully served. Most of the desserts were gone since it was close to closing, but the cozy atmosphere more than made up for it.
What really stood out was the vinyl music - a real record player & shelves full of records. I even saw the barista put on a new record - such a charming touch!
I'll definitely come back & bring someone along next time.
My wife & I visited right after picking up bikes from Ca Roule. It was a sunny morning, & they have a nice sidewalk patio that's situated perfectly for morning sunshine so we sat there. I had a flat white & my wife had a cappuccino which were both really good. I had a breakfast wrap which was stuffed full & super tasty, & an energy ball. My wife had the egg breakfast sandwich which was tasty & cheesy. They also have several bakery items which look very good. Service was nothing short of amazing! Will 100% visit again!
Absolutely amazing music choice, from Ghostbusters to Louis Armstrong, which complements the dreamy atmosphere of the decoration & architecture. I knew this place was well reviewed but it blew my socks off!!! My partner & I had a grilled cheese + ham sandwich with a London fog & a cappuccino. Everything was absolutely delightful!!! Will be definitely coming back here!

Par milk cappuccino was sweet & smooth. The grilled cheese sandwich was really good too, it's a very small space but it's got a nice warm vibe. The staff was very kind!
Decent cappuccino & London Fog. Had a classique grilled cheese sandwich as well which was pretty tasty. Ambience is great, but its a pretty small cafe so not much place to sit.
Great single origin filter Ethiopia, very fruity. My parents loved oat cappuccino as well, nice latter art & proper milk steaming technique & temperature. Overall probably the best coffee I have had in Montreal!
