Pas de Problème Café is described as a stylish, vibey spot with a relaxed atmosphere that works for solo visitors or groups, where the coffee and food feel restaurant quality and the Jamaican patties stand out. The space gets praise for its design, the vinyl, and the overall vibe, with many noting the patty dough is freshly made and the jerk chicken grilled cheese is memorable. Drinks shine, from excellent oat cappuccinos and gingerbread lattes to the coco caramel latte, though several reviews mention that portions can feel small for the price and the menu can be pricey. Service is a mixed bag, with many friendly and attentive staff but some encounters described as slow or aloof, which can dampen the experience. While wifi is not always available and seating can be tight, a back terrace offers a welcome option on nicer days.
Such a great find!! The place is super stylish with amazing vibes-perfect whether you're alone or with a group. I even had to snap a pic of the bathroom because it's that cool.
The highlight was definitely the friendly, helpful service, along with the food & coffee. The cardamom coffee was incredible, & the food felt like true restaurant-quality. The BLT is easily as good as one you'd get at a top brunch spot.
Honestly, everything is brunch-level but at a better price. Loved it!!

My new favorite coffee spot in Sud-Ouest. The vibe is amazing, & they serve one of the best patties I've ever had-definitely try the chicken one, it tastes just like a roti.
This place is a VIBE! The coffee is amazing & the food is like nothing else available on the street. St Henri earned a new gem. I'm surprised by other reviews taking a hit at the price-to-size ratio of the food, I thought it was actually on point! Where else can you get a $12 breakfast sandwich nowadays? Plus the flavor was amazing!! & the'complain less' merch just fills my soul. Oh & service…10/10 friendly. Can't wait to see what it's like in the summer with the terrace!
Food & coffee are actually great. I've had their jamericano (not sure if they still have it), gingerbread latte & grilled cheese sandwich, & all were fantastic. I also enjoyed the Aesop handsoap in the bathroom - nice touch. However, everytime I've been to this place service has been terrible. Staff is rude & unwelcoming, & service is extremely slow. Don't love the seating either. Most seats are very low &/or doesn't have back support. Not pregnancy friendly at all.
Visited in January 2026. We were looking for a cozy coffee spot to eat & have a drink, but unfortunately the experience was disappointing & overpriced for what was offered.
Food: Very overpriced. We ordered the avocado toast for $15 & it was extremely underwhelming - just 2 slices of bread, two eggs on the side, & two slices of avocado placed separately (see picture for reference). Mind you, we were very surprised to be served that. It really didn't feel worth the price. We also tried the chicken grilled cheese, which mostly tasted like spicy sauce & lacked flavor overall. The only item we genuinely enjoyed was the coco caramel latte.
Service: The service was acceptable, nothing negative to say, though it was a bit slow.
Atmosphere: The decor is nice & cozy, but the space is quite small, with only about four tables & a few benches for seating.
Overall: I would recommend this place for coffee, but not for the food.

Really good coffee with better price than local competition! Nice interior & garden. If they had Wi-Fi I would be there every day to focus work, no wifi 😔
OATMEAL RAISIN COOKIE!! I am obsessed with oatmeal raisin cookies & this is best I have ever had. Just get the cookie.
Also tried a flat white it was good & the ginger bread latte, it was also good. The vibe is really cool inside, great place to go chill. Coffees are on the more expensive side but they are using high quality beans & specialty syrups if ur into that, you are paying for the atmosphere too.

I simply loved Pas de Problème Café! Super cozy vibe & the jamaicano is a must try for coffee lovers, something they do that took away the bitterness. Perfect little spot in town to relax, chat, or just enjoy great coffee. Definitely coming back to drink a coffee or just chill.
Coffee's good, but the homemade Jamaican patty & molasses/gingersnap cookies are absolutely insane! Employees are super friendly & the interior decor is very cute as well.
Affordable prices for coffee & food. The breakfast sandwiches are just great & being their is such a great vibe! Im always discovering new music when i stop by
