Les avis sur San Sebastian Café convergent sur une expérience chaleureuse et cosy, idéale pour étudier, travailler ou se détendre autour d'un cheesecake Basque riche et crémeux, souvent décliné avec des toppings comme pistache, chocolat ou lotus Biscoff. La texture varie selon les versions et les préférences, allant d'un coeur bien fondant à une douceur plus ferme, certains le trouvant trop sucré sans sauce, d'autres appréciant l équilibre avec les accompagnements; les portions restent modestes et le prix parfois jugé élevé, mais l ensemble reste largement apprécié. Le café et les boissons chaudes reçoivent des éloges, avec des lattes et des chocolats chauds remarqués, et l ambiance est décrite comme cosy, chic et propice à la détente ou au travail; le personnel est généralement très chaleureux et attentionné, bien que quelques avis signalent des lenteurs de service et, à l occasion, des questions de propreté. Le lieu ouvre tard et fait souvent l unanimité comme une véritable pépite de Montréal.
Cute & comfortable. Latté was 7$ approx. San Sebastián cake is 8.99$ & then you're charged 1$ extra if you want a topping & 1.50$ if you choose pistachio from among them. Cake slice is small & its gooey. The Texture is nice but it leans more on the salty than sweet.
Tasted the cake which was amazing. Stuff was not that welcoming. Only one of them was struggling with the order other one was just standing. Good for nothing. Anyway must try the cake. Price reasonable.
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🥲

Tried their San Sebastian cheesecake with Biscoff sauce during a BOGO offer. Texture-wise, it felt much closer to a regular cheesecake rather than a true Basque cheesecake. I was expecting a gooey center & didn't really get that, which was a bit disappointing since that's my personal preference. Taste-wise, it was fine but nothing particularly standout, it was very similar to a standard cheesecake. The cake itself has a good level of sweetness on its own, but with the Biscoff sauce it becomes overly sweet. For the BOGO price, it's a decent deal, but at full price I probably wouldn't order it again.
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.

Absolutely LOVED!! this place. Visiting from outside the city. Great cheese cake not at all too sweet & I had it paired with biscoff topping & it was perfect not at all too sweet & went well together.
The atmosphere was super chill, warm & relaxing. We got the steeped tea to accompany the dessert & it was great.
Would definitely return in future & would recommend to anyone looking for a good relaxing warms dessert location in Montreal.
Tried cheesecake with the pistachio cream on top, it was delicious! The cake was fresh, & the coffee & black tea were excellent too.
Definitely coming back to try other toppings next time!
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.
