Review Summary

Reviews of Sauge Café describe a cozy, welcoming lakeside spot where the coffee is a standout and the matcha latte with oat milk is a highlight, and the terrace by the water is frequently praised, especially in good weather. Food and beverages are generally well received, with tasty snacks and a gluten free chocolate treat noted, though snacks are seen as light bites rather than full meals and portions can feel small or pricey. The cafe is considered a good place to work or relax, with friendly staff, comfy seating, and solid wifi. Certain visits mention brunch with kids as not ideal, and service hiccups such as missing ingredients, delays, or miscommunications that can affect the experience. The lakeside view, outdoor seating, and calm ambiance are repeatedly highlighted as major positives, making Sauge Café a charming destination to visit for coffee and a peaceful lakeside moment. Overall sentiment is favorable with many planning to return for the drinks and scenery, while a few notes caution about consistency and value.

Pour un café délicieux & un super biscuit, dans un lieu calme & sympathique : OUI 🥳

Pour un brunch avec des enfants : Non. Les choses à grignoter sont vraiment pour de l'appoint, un petit quelque chose à manger sur le pouce pendant qu'on jase ou pendant qu'on termine de quoi sur son ordi, pas pour un « vrai » repas. Ce qui est très correct, faut juste le savoir.

Nous avons payé 75$ sans service pour 2 croissants au jambon/fromage, un grilled cheese accompagné de leur petite salade un peu fanée, une salade très banale au tofu & 2 cafés… aoutch!

On reviendra mais uniquement pour les cafés qui étaient très bons, probablement cet été pour profiter du bord du lac.

J'adore l'ambiance & surtout le matcha latte lait d'avoine! Miam. & quand vous venez l'été, la terrasse extérieure devant le lac est juste incroyable !

A little gem, amazing coffee (they serve Yamabiko), they have an excellent gluten free chocolatey treat & it's altogether a very cozy place to work.

2nd visit. Disappointing. Ordered two coffee, one with cream & one with milk alternative….I clearly specified either almond or oat milk.

We were told to take a seat & our coffee would be served. Two other groups came in AFTER us & orders taken & served. We waited 15 minutes for coffee. When it came mine had soy milk & my wife's had milk instead of cream.

I was so frustrated by the long wait I simply drank my coffee & left. I'll never go back. We are new to the area & will chose another place for coffee in the future!

Just happened upon this cafe while travelling. Lovely coffee & a great location by a lake. Definitely worth a stop.

A charming lakeside spot that feels truly one of a kind. The view alone is worth a visit. The food was nice, fresh, & well presented. However, the service was disappointing. I ordered a salad with'mangue' in its name, but it arrived without it. When I asked, they casually said they didn't have mango since it was the end of the day. They didn't care to inform me before I ordered, even though mango was a main ingredient. I also requested a small portion, yet was served a full meal size with an extra charge, again without warning. Beautiful place, but service transparency was completely lacking.

Un petit café charmant avec une magnifique terrasse & un quai directement sur le lac. L'accueil est chaleureux & leur café glacé est tout simplement l'un des meilleurs de la région. L'endroit parfait pour décrocher & profiter du moment au bord de l'eau.
