Review Summary

Pigeon Espresso Bar is described as a place with excellent coffee and an artistic or cozy vibe, with some reviews praising fast, attentive service and others noting unfriendly or average service. The cafe is linked to a nearby pizza place, and the two atmospheres do not always blend, which can leave diners with mixed impressions. Board games, retro decor, and a welcoming neighborhood feel come up frequently, making it a spot many want to return to, even if space can feel cramped at times. Coffee quality is praised across several entries, including strong lattes, good matcha, and flavorful drinks, while a few reports mention a cappuccino with almost no foam or a dessert not being fresh. The location is noted as central in downtown Montreal near the library, with some appreciating the casual vibe for a bagel or scone, though prices are sometimes described as not being the cheapest. Overall, reviews present Pigeon Espresso Bar as a popular hub for coffee and casual hangouts with a mix of highs and some drawbacks.

Great 80s vibe decore. Connected to Hamg Time Pizza. Will definitely come back!

Loved this place! Staff were very friendly, we had their cortado w/oat milk & it was perfect! Probably the best coffee shop I tried while in Montreal
