Paquebot Café emerges as a cozy, vinyl loving spot with friendly staff and solid coffee that many reviewers praise, while a few feel the drinks and desserts fall short of the hype or are priced a bit high. The atmosphere is repeatedly described as warm and charming, with good lighting, a space to linger or work, and an upstairs area that offers a nice overlook, plus a record player and shelves of vinyl that add character. The menu is often noted as small or limited, yet several drinks stand out such as cappuccino, sesame latte, and matcha latte, and there are tasty pastries and vegetarian options mentioned. Some comments point to inconsistent quality or value and to seating being tight or uncomfortable at times, but the overall impression is that Paquebot Café is a beloved, convenient spot for coffee, a bite, and a relaxing break while exploring Montreal.
Filter coffee, espresso were both lovely. Veggie sandwich was delicious. Seating upstairs is enjoyable for the overlook of the lower level, but a little uncomfortable with flat wooden benches & metal stools.
Love coming back to this'hole in the wall' serving delicious espresso-based coffee. Super friendly staff & cozy atmosphere. Indoor seating & outdoor patio in the Summer.
J'adore revenir dans ce petit recoin servant un délicieux café expresso. Personnel super agréable & ambiance chaleureuse. Espace pour s'asseoir à l'intérieure & terrasse extérieure en été.
came on a saturday & ordered 2 cookies, a latté with oat milk & matcha latté with dairy milk. the lattés & cookies were delicious & we really appreciated that oat milk did not cost extra! the barista also helped us carry our cups up the stairs as the seating on the lower level was limited. we had a lovely time & stayed until they closed (from 3-5 pm). thank you!

Stopped in for a quick breakfast. Iced oat milk latte (teen #1 happy), grilled cheese sandwich (teen #2 happy), flat white (mom happy) & the best nitro cold brew (me happy). Seating upstairs, vinyl on the shelves, coffee beans for sale, staff having a great time too, just a great place to discover.
Love the tranquil & relaxed atmosphere. If you are searching for a chill place to work, read or network, this is the place to be. The mezzanine offers tons of electrical plugs & several seating options (although admittedly the seating may not be well suited for hard core studying(.

Wish we had better experience in comparison to the other reviews I've seen. We stopped in yesterday for a mid day pick me up & ordered a flat white & mocha & unfortunately both tasted very bitter. Otherwise, the cafe is two levels with some seating upstairs that looked really cute.
