Was so cozy & the drinks were great . Could have been better if the receptionist was welcoming & felt some light music was missing .

Was excited to try this cafe. While I like the concept that it's trying to go for - I think it falls on the short end of the stick.
- The service is subpar.
- The couches & tables were dirty. I would also worry about potential bedbugs here.
- music was beyond too loud
- straws were too short to drink from
- matcha was overrated & very watered down with milk, it just tasted like milk. The amount of matcha was also inconsistent (we ordered multiple)
- menu is not very clear
- potential food safety hazard?? As they have all of the pastries out without a cover (I will say the pastries were good though)

I think this cafe is overhyped.
If you don't might going a little further, Léche is a very lovely joint.

This Café is overpriced & pretentious for what it is. The food is underwhelming for the price, especially the breakfast items, but the drinks are good & the spot is hidden.

I was worried about the mixed reviews (many people were saying the matcha wasn't good?) but personally as a picky matcha drinker I found this PERFECT. Not only is it a hidden gem near Lionel Groulx station, but it's so cozy inside, they've got a menu for food & seating suitable for studying & chilling.

I got a strawberry matcha & it hit all the right spots. The strawberry jam was clearly homemade, concentrated & jammy, not a hint of artificial flavours that I hate, it doesn't overpower the matcha, which tastes bright & earthy. Its refreshing, not too sweet, & addictive.

Genuinely my favourite strawberry matcha spot in Montreal, & I've tried many. Will definitely come back.

Drinks are really good, the place is a bit hard to find & I couldn't find the door loll. Parking wasn't the best either.
They do have a no laptop policy except on some tables on Sunday, which I didn't know, & went there to work, all laptop tables were taken. So a bit annoying. But we ended up getting a table at some point after all.
The place is cute. It's like a 50-50 of good & bad things I guess !

Great vibes. Great music/beats. Great food. Great coffee. Easy to get a table at 12 on a Tuesday. Comfy seating. Great for working if that's your style. Unique plates & drinks.

Very well decorated & inviting space. Food was pretty good (would recommend offering hot sauce with your Hangover sandwich 😊).
Half the space was filled with people on their laptops/studying & the other half was just people vibing & chatting. Nice music choice but found it excessively loud - esp with a hangover.
Didn't give a 5 because the chaotic energy was a bit off putting & didn't really resonate with the space. Paying full price for drinks & food but not being served water or really experiencing any level of service was a bit strange, otherwise hoping this place settles into the vibe they're going for !

Savsav is a hidden gem, IYKYK In my opinion one of the most beautiful coffee shops in Montréal. Such a cool vibe, very welcoming & good service. The food is delicious & their special drinks are tasty. Good spot for brunch or to work/study. Very bright with a lot of natural light. Un incontournable dans Saint-Henri!

The place itself is beautiful but the drinks are a bit too expensive & they're VERY generous on the ice (10$ for a strawberry matcha that was 3/4 ice & 1/4 matcha) But besides the price it's a nice place to hang out with friends.

The food (chicken salad on toast) & my drink (iced chai) were both great. Just a few'downsides': 1) the music is really loud. Personally, I focus well even with music so I'm fine but just to note, it's not the place for great conversation or taking meetings. 2) it's kinda hard to find! Maybe that's supposed to be part of the charm/exclusivity but just warning you, you might get lost finding it.
