Review Summary

Racer Café is described as a welcoming, community oriented spot with a warm, cozy atmosphere that suits cyclists and locals alike, a convenient stop along the Gouin path near Parc de la Visitation. The drinks get top marks, especially chai latte and the signature lattes, and the menu features healthy local options including vegan and gluten free items, soups, muffins and galettes, plus ice cream and shakes in summer. The space is bike friendly with tables, wifi and even on site bike checks, making it a popular post ride stop where the vibe is friendly and energetic. Service is praised for attentiveness and warmth by many, though a few notes mention slower service and moments without a smile; overall the staff are seen as welcoming. Prices are sometimes described as a bit high, but the quality and the sense of community make Racer Café a neighborhood hub for coffee lovers, athletes and families.

Racer Café de Course - Best Café near Parc de la Visitation, Montréal Nord

Racer Café de Course is one of the best cafés in Montréal Nord & a perfect stop near Parc de la Visitation. I love coming here all year. In summer, it is amazing after a walk or bike ride in Parc de la Visitation to enjoy their iced coffee, milkshakes, smoothies, or ice cream. The coffee is excellent, the menu is healthy, & the vibe is friendly & local.

In winter, this café is the perfect place to warm up after cross-country skiing in Parc de la Visitation. Their Racer Café Latte & Super Latte made with superfoods are delicious, & their vegan & gluten-free Galette Racer or Breakfast Muffin with over 10 grams of protein are perfect for a quick healthy snack.

The staff is very kind & welcoming, & the place always feels positive & full of energy. You can tell that people love to meet here after a run, a workout, or a bike ride. It is a real community café for coffee lovers, athletes, & families.

If you are looking for a coffee shop in Montréal Nord, a vegan café near Parc de la Visitation, or a local place for coffee, snacks, smoothies, & ice cream, Racer Café de Course is the place to go.

Racer Café de Course - Le meilleur café près du Parc de la Visitation à Montréal Nord

Racer Café de Course est un des meilleurs cafés de Montréal Nord, situé tout près du Parc de la Visitation. C'est l'endroit parfait pour une pause café après une promenade, une course ou une sortie à vélo. En été, j'adore prendre un café glacé, un smoothie, un milkshake ou une crème glacée sur la terrasse. Les produits sont frais, locaux & de grande qualité.

En hiver, c'est l'endroit idéal pour se réchauffer après une séance de ski de fond au Parc de la Visitation. Le Racer Café Latte & le Super Latte à base de superaliments sont excellents. Leurs collations santé, comme la Galette Racer végane & sans gluten ou le Muffin déjeuner protéiné, sont parfaites pour bien commencer la journée.

L'ambiance est toujours chaleureuse & le personnel est accueillant & attentionné. C'est un vrai café de quartier, fréquenté par des amateurs de sport, de plein air & de bon café.

Je recommande fortement ce café à tous ceux qui cherchent un café local à Montréal Nord, un café santé près du Parc de la Visitation ou un endroit pour prendre un café, un smoothie ou une crème glacée artisanale

I would have left 5 stars if the person who served us smiled. Apparently she's the owner. She was very short with us, like she was in a hurry or something. Smile, it goes a long way. Great chocolate ice cream though.

The dirty chai latte is the best in Montreal! I love coming here & I love that they are dog friendly. Their ice cream is also very good!

I discovered a hidden gem of a coffee shop nestled along a bike path on Gouin boulevard. Their coffee is rich & flavorful, & they offer a diverse menu of sandwiches, muffins, & refreshing drinks. Plus, they have an ice cream counter to satisfy any sweet tooth! I highly recommend their refreshing lemonade cold brew. While enjoying your drink on their outdoor terrace, you can even get your bike tuned up by the convenient bike shop set up nearby.

A wonderful cafe with plenty of choices, including gluten-free! The kids were big fans of the ice cream. The small repair kiosk outside was a lifesaver when we were 15 km from home with a bent brake rotor! All in a lovely, green, quiet neighbourhood.

A lovely little spot right on a bike route. Patio & indoor seating. I have gone there a few times now for a cappuccino, service is friendly. Great coffee, they have combos of coffee & sandwich. A selection of ice creams too. Close to the parc.

Delicious ice cream, but the behavior of person working there was not welcoming specially when we asked her to change our ice cream scopes since its cup was dirty she behaved not properly. She put the same ice cream was in dirty cut in the new one.

I had an excellent iced coffee & I will definitely pass by again. The cafe is located along a bike path by the river, making it a convenient pit stop for a drink, snack or ice cream :)

It's September & even thought it's 2 months early we have no shame in telling you we are shifting to pumpkin mode.
We were the first to try @racer_cafe_co newest soft serve flavour... Yes, you guessed it : Pumpkin spice
Believe us when we tell you it was incredible.
Velvety ice cream with a pronounced flavour really made us feel like autumn is coming.

Go & give this a try you will not regret it & you will be met with bright, amicable service that would make even the most socially awkward person feel comfortable.
