Bon, là je pense avoir mangé le meilleur grille-cheese (croque monsieur) à vie!

Le pain était délicieux & généreusement garni de sauce béchamel, le jambon & le fromage étaient simplement délicieux.

Finalement l'ambiance détendue & chaleureuse a rendu notre lunch mémorable.

Clairement mon café préféré dans le Mile End !!
Il a l'air assez populaire car il y a souvent du monde, mais il y a beaucoup d'espace pour tous les acceuillir.
Le café est bon, les cookies aussi. Le personnel est agréable & rapide.

beau décor, mais limonade à goût fade & service très froid... honnêtement une expérience assez décevante

Very cute little spot. I stopped here on a hot sunny day while on an epic walk around the city, needing something cold to drink as a refreshment. I ordered an absolutely delicious fizzy berry thing in a can, which the bar staff served to me on the rocks in a lovely little tumbler. Enjoyed the vibe, the music & the sunshine.

Minus one star only because the ceiling fans were going at full speed but there were no blinds or shades on any of the untinted windows, so basically everyone was melting in there & possibly getting sunburned like little ants under a magnifying glass… no idea if they have AC or not but highly recommend that the owners consider installing shades before summer really gets going.

Really great place especially in cooler weather or windy summer days. Because it was so hot when I did go here a few months ago

A very cute cafe with a welcoming ambience & unique, refreshing beverages. I tried a matcha limonade for the first time & fell in love with it.
