I'm from out of town & was looking for a good cafe. This place is perfect. Comfy spot with delicious drinks. Server was a nice fellow that had no problem speaking English for me :)

Me as an outsider, I recommend this place if you're visiting Montreal & looking for a nice spot to check out

Small menu, cozy place, friendly service.
I wish I could give a 6th star because they have the menu prices with tax included - glad to see some businesses doing things the right way.
