Paquebot Café draws praise for excellent coffee and a range of drinks, from standout matcha and a very smooth oat milk at the same price as regular milk to seasonal favourites like a Christmas latte and a lavender London Fog, plus pastries such as a chocolate biscuit that melts in the mouth. Reviewers describe warm, friendly service and a welcoming vibe in a small shop that is nice for working thanks to big tables and designated laptop spaces, natural light, and views of the mountains, though a few note that the furniture can be uncomfortable and hours could stay open later. No extra charges for dairy alternatives are often mentioned, and many call it one of the best coffee spots in the neighborhood with a constantly evolving menu and a sense of community that makes people want to return.
Wonderful coffee shop. Their christmas latte is wonderful, delicious & soothing. The vibes are immaculate & the staff is friendly & helpful. Would love to return again.

J'ai pris un curry latte, j'avais jamais goûté à ça, c'est leur take sur le pumpkin Spice-- j'ai vraiment aimé!! Atmosphère & service chaleureux, les fenêtres donnent un lumière naturelle + vue sur la montagne.
An ideal spot to hole up & get some work done. Some of the most consistently friendly baristas & staff here, always spinning great music. I love that they have designated tables for working on your laptop, as well as sitting to grab a drink & chat with friends 😊 They've always got interesting new drinks & lattes on the menu, which makes it fun to pop in regularly & see what's up. Wish they stayed open a little later though, it'd be a cool spot to hang in the evening!
This location has a completely different setup to the one downtown. Here there are more tanks for working the space is cozy so it's not good for business calls nor personal conversations. The coffee is just as good as the downtown location though. Here they even have a curry latte that I was curious about. They also don't charge for oat milk & make a real good dirty chai with made in house chai concentrate that is more on the watery, spiced side of flavor.
Journée super occupée !!! Tour cyclisme sur le Mont Royal... Commandé deux Expresso ... Tellement froid que je ne l'ai pas bu... Ma copine elle a décidé de l'avaler d'une gorgée... Je suis parti comme il y avait beaucoup trop de monde qui attendait... laissant mon expresso sur le contoir À mon retour du tour cyclisme je me suis arrêté & je lui ai demandé de me faire un café au lait pour me compenser... La jeune fille qui m'a reconnue a bien voulu m'offrir un café au lait... Quelle gentillesse & amabilité!!! Avec le sourire & en s'excusant d'autant plus elles étaient tellement occupées!!! Vraiment apprécié de siroter mon café au lait servi avec une petite décoration!!! Mille Mercis pour votre Excellent service!!!
I'm a cafe hopper, & this is the best oat milk latte I've had in montreal! The tables are long & have outlets which are good for doing work, & the ambience is funky & chill
Cute place, friendly staff but I had the iced chai & I love all sorts of chai & i struggled to drink this. It was bitter milk, not much flavour. My friend had an iced americano & didn't think it was very good. Based on reviews I think it's best to try a speciality latte. This place is not wheelchair friendly.

Pros: good coffee, interesting selection of coffee, meat looking place, good location. Cons: Coffee serving too small, customer service/attitude. The little guy seemed not very friendly or interactive. After paying six dollars for a latte I was surprised to get something more like a cappuccino. People arriving after me got served for me. Advice: it's easy to make good coffee, it's harder to please your customers. Baristas should always have a good attitude & be interactive with your customers, otherwise the coffee is not worth it.
Cute little shop! Was walking around the area & popped in for a Latte & a little journal session. It's a spacious cafe with great seats for laptops (with outlets)! The servers were very nice & let me practice my French at the counter. Great music & vibes. I bought a bag of Decaf Beans & enjoyed my latte. They also have cute stickers at the cash ;)
