Localisation pratique.

Café sympathique dans le centre, offrant boissons & gâteaux.
Le fameux cheesecake est bon mais cher pour ce qu'il est. Servis avec un nappage il n'en reste pas moins correct.
Les boissons sont diversifiées & bien réalisées.

I found San Sebastian Cafe by chance. It was a very nice surprise. We tried the cheesecake & it was really delicious. The texture was very creamy & the taste was well balanced.
If you want a good dessert or a cozy place to relax this cafe is a great choice. It was a lovely discovery for me. Next time I will definitely come back here with my wife.

Café cozy près du centre ville, heures d'ouverture impressionnante
7 Jours sur 7 de ( 11h a.m - 3h a.m )
Possibilités de plusieurs choses à manger & énormément de boissons. Cafés : Espresso, Latte, Spanish latte, Cortado, Mocha… mais aussi plusieurs spécialités unique à cet endroit.
San sebastian café compte plusieurs place (chaises, sofas, tables)
Ce sont beaucoup d'espaces adaptés au working flow.
C'est moderne & peu de points sont à souligner.
Le seul défaut que j'ai pu trouver était la propreté des plancher ainsi que les tapis mais c'est excusable due à la saison que nous traversons.
Certainement un bin endroit oû terminer vos soirée entre amis ou tout simplement pour prendre un café tard le soir.

Spent 3 days in Montreal. Came to this Cafe at least twice a day. Amazing people work there, & the coffee & cheesecake is amazing.

Also I found your keys still in the door in the morning. I took them out & brought to Pharmacafe. Lol....take care

Amazing Syrian coffee shop with delicious pastries / sweets. I had the a cafe latte pistachio with klisha & it was incredible. The ambiance is also cozy & inviting, & the owner is very kind. I will definitely come back here.

The owner is one of the kindest cafe owners you can meet. We showed up right when he opened with a big group of 12 & he was super warm & welcoming. We loved the house cheesecake & his specialty lattes (there were many!)

Cozy & chic vibes, fair price with generous coffee proportion, efficient & friendly service, all freshly homemade dessert! The whole cafe is a full vibe, really like the interior decorative items there. I tried the signature San Sebastián cheese cake, you could choose your own sauce & it will be in the cone, then you pull it in by yourself with the portion you want. The owner is super nice & informative. We shared interesting conversations & ideas. & apologize for delaying his procedure that failed the cake in the oven🥲

The cafe is lovely, but the cheese cake is expensive, & too sweet & watery. A small piece of cheese cake costs 10$. It is not worth it at all!!

Stumbled upon San Sebastian Café on a cold night & so glad we did. The San Sebastian cake with dark chocolate sauce was incredible - rich, not overly sweet, just perfect. They have great decaf options too. The interior & ambience are beautiful. The staff was very sweet & welcoming. A perfect end to the evening. Highly recommend.

The cafe is beautiful & a really nice place to sit & work, study, or spend time with friends. The atmosphere is cozy & inviting. However, I wasn't very impressed with the food. I tried their famous cheesecake with pistachio sauce, & it was too sweet for my taste. The cheesecake was also quite expensive, so overall it just wasn't for me.

My friend & I walked into San Sebastián Café by pure chance, & it turned out to be one of the best surprises of the day. We were simply looking for a place to sit, but instead we found an absolutely delicious cheesecake that felt like a little piece of heaven. The texture was creamy, the flavor perfectly balanced-not too sweet, not too heavy-& the presentation was beautiful.
The ambiance of the café made the experience even better. Warm lighting, cozy seating, & a relaxed vibe that makes you want to stay for hours. The staff were genuinely friendly & welcoming, which added to the charm of the place.
If you're in Montréal & craving a good dessert or just a cozy spot to unwind, San Sebastián Café is definitely worth a visit. A delightful find & a new favorite!

Honestly the place is 10x better than how it looks in the photos. The cakes are really tasty, & the hot syrups make it an interesting new experience to enjoy the cakes!

Very good experience :)
A nice & happy cafe to meet friends & chat.

Cozy little dessert/cafe spot with excellent cheesecake! Really a cool little gem.

Try a few of the toppings for like $1 each. They even have some board games & stuff.

Everything is amazing, i love this café. The only reason I didn't give it a 5/5 is because the bathrooms are a bit dirty
