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.
phenomenal coffee shop. it was the perfect place to spend a few hours as a traveler on a short layover in montreal. the food was great (good vegetarian & vegan options) & the pastries & coffee were just what i was looking for. great reading area upstairs as well.
I had a great coffee & experience here. If you're Australian the coffee tastes like home! The barista was also so lovely & gave recommendations for Quebec!
Un très bon café dans le Vieux-Montréal.Le café & les biscuits sont très bons (fait maison & prix abordable) l'ambiance est simple & le personnel est adorable. Le matcha malheureusement n'est pas très fort, c'est un peu dommage. Vous pouvez acheter votre café torréfacteur sur plage également & une terrasse pour profiter du soleil est à disposition
Came across this amazing, cosy cafe while strolling through the town. Energy balls, raising cookie, egg & cheese muffin (bonjour deluxe) tasted great - everything felt homemade. Staff was kind & welcoming.
J'aime beaucoup le café, surtout le café limo! J'y vais plusieurs fois par semaine. Cependant c'est assez dispendieux & ce serait bien si les baristas pouvaient enlever la mousse du café limo en fût (certaines le font & d'autres non) car c'est vraiment décevant de payer 5$ pour la moitié d'un verre de café-limo :(

Amazing cafe in the old port! The staff is always so friendly & welcoming. This his the go to cafe of everyone in our office:) I must say I was a big fan of the breakfast wrap until today. Go back to the ham wrap !!!!
Pretty small coffee shop with pretty decent coffee. The breakfast items such as pastries are good. The only thing that I can point out is that the breakfast sandwiches need improvement.
