We have taken great care in the construction of this café in order to offer you a unique atmosphere, composed entirely of recycled materials and renovated second hand furniture. The Saint JJH&CAFÉ is the perfect meeting of retro and antique. Your eyes will easily get lost in the immensity of details that we have disseminated in this space where materials, furniture and objects were once destined to be abandoned, but now live a beautiful second life.
Saint JJH & Café feels like a cozy, standout neighborhood spot with warm, eclectic decor and a welcoming vibe; the in-house menu features homemade dishes and pastries, accompanied by highly praised coffee and desserts like cheesecake, with several reviews calling the beverages rich, creamy, and well balanced; the staff and owner are repeatedly described as friendly, attentive, and caring, creating a space that's great for studying, catching up with friends, or simply relaxing; the atmosphere, unique layout, and greenery contribute to a homey yet stylish feel, and while some notes mention higher prices or occasional climate issues, the overall sentiment is that this cafe is a gem worth visiting and returning to.
Stunning hidden gem!! We've visited & drawn at many cafes all over Montreal & this one is a new top favorite. The staff is lovely & kind. Food & drinks delicious. The place is literally so so gorgeous.
J'avais noté que j'irai à ce café un jour & auj, j'ai eu l'occasion d'y aller & donc voici mon verdict :
Ambiance effectivement cozy, belles vibes!
Les canapés sont confortables. Mix entre ambiance tamisée & lumière du jour.
Excellent choix de musique qui nous met de suite ds cette ambiance décontractée. Volume pas forte pour pouvoir discuter.
Belle découverte du hojicha latte sans sucre! Je sens que je vais laisser le matcha de côté 😉
La crêpe'la verte' vraiment délicieuse avec un petit accompagnement de fruits.

The cafe is incredibly unique! Nothing but great things to say - be it drinks / ambience / food & most importantly the people working here.
Yanna & Aymeric were an absolute delight to deal with.
Highly recommended, cheers guys!
Honestly, I never found another cafe like this in the entire montreal. The vibe, the lights, the chairs, the sofas, the tables, the music & especially the food- all of them are taken care of in an utmost manner. You can see the decorations on the wall with rich thoughts. I never feel bothered to drive an hour just to sit here for a coffer.. Either one way or another, they always spread a completely different positive vibe.
I absolutely love this café. The vibe & ambiance is chic, dark & cozy all at once. The staff & owner are super nice & hard working. I love this café & will keep coming back! 🖤
Wow! Personnel super sympathique, ambiance parfaite pour travailler ou étudier & la place est juste magnifique! Les cafés & les différents plats sont excellents, mais je recommande fortement le cheesecake (Corrina's cheesecake), probablement le meilleur que j'ai mangé :) Je reviendrais définitivement!

Saint JJH Café is truly unlike any café I've ever been to. From the moment you walk in, you can feel that everything, both the food & the coffee are made with genuine love & intention. My boyfriend & I have been loyal customers ever since we met, & this café has become our place, a constant in our relationship & a space filled with memories! It's the kind of place you don't just visit once🤍☕?
Literally the best cafe I went to. Since day 1, I have been obsessed with this place. As a picky eater, they have exactly what I need & what I want. I love the staff, the drinks, the foods & the ambiance of the place. It is a great place to study, talk to friends & do really anything. I would recommend this place to literally anyone of any age. It's really cozy & have a warm atmosphere. Thank you JJH for your great service! Love it!
My favourite little cafe in Montreal. This place is a neighborhood gem, the sort of quaint & cozy spot that becomes a regular with your friend group & where the owners know you by name. The service is always so lovely - everyone that works there is always so kind & warm. It's got an eclectic, moody vibe with lots of cute seating in all these little nooks, cool artwork & the best music playlist. The food is made in house & between the unique quiches (my favourite), Greek pastries, cakes, cookies & hot breakfast options (the pesto omelette is so good, & a great portion for the price) - you won't go hungry. Having saved the best for last, let's talk about their coffee : the best latte I've had in a long time. Deliciously creamy & perfectly balanced. They make such great coffee, I find myself returning to this place with embarrassing frequency. If you are ever in the area, make sure you give this place a try - well worth the visit!

It's the best café/brunch place in Verdun, with the best atmosphere, music, coffee & best desserts!! I love going there honestly one of the best cafes in MTL area.
What a gem of a café! The atmosphere is really unique, the music is always on point, & the coffee is stellar. To top it all off, they have some Greek pastries like tiropita & spanakopita! What more could you ask for?
Café magnifique tant par la décoration que par les excellentes pâtisseries & le personnel adorable ! Ce n'est pas la première fois que je viens & je suis toujours agréablement surprise ! On s'y sent à la fois comme à la maison & comme dans un décor de Friends ! Je reviendrai, ça c'est sûr ! 🥰
Un de mes cafés préférés en ville ! Les boissons & pâtisseries sont délicieuses, & que dire du décor somptueux. Mention spéciale pour les biscuits pour chiens quand on prend à emporter :) Juste penser à demander le type de lait souhaité, mais sinon c'est parfait.
