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

A quaint little café on Gouin street just off the path from Ile de la Visitation park in Ahuntsic. They have a variety of drinks (we took an espresso & a latte) & some delicious sweets (took some cookies). Cookies were yummy, the espresso & latte were a little light (the brand? Not enough ground coffee in the machine during prep?). Nonetheless, great service & cute atmosphere!!
