Savsav présente une esthétique industrielle définie par de hauts plafonds et une abondance de lumière naturelle qui baigne la salle ouverte. Le menu met en avant des préparations créatives comme le matcha à la fraise servi dans de larges carafes en verre, accompagnées de diverses assiettes fraîches et savoureuses. L’aménagement intérieur exploite cette architecture spacieuse pour conserver une atmosphère aérée, bien que l’entrée demeure discrète sans signalétique extérieure marquée. Cet espace offre un cadre distinctif et baigné de soleil, propice autant aux moments de travail qu’aux échanges sociaux. Chaque table permet d’apprécier un décor minimaliste, où l’accent est mis sur l’équilibre entre la structure métallique brute et la vivacité des boissons. L’établissement conserve un caractère unique qui privilégie une beauté fonctionnelle associée à une sélection ciblée de boissons préparées sur place.
Savsav est largement reconnue comme une perle rare au décor industriel dans Montréal, appréciée pour son atmosphère lumineuse, ses grandes fenêtres et son cadre invitant qui en font une destination prisée tant pour le télétravail que pour les rencontres décontractées. Les visiteurs louent fréquemment la qualité exceptionnelle des boissons, notamment le matcha à la fraise et les cafés spécialisés servis dans des carafes élégantes, tandis que l'offre alimentaire reçoit des avis partagés mais souvent positifs concernant sa fraîcheur et son goût. Bien que l'entrée puisse être difficile à localiser initialement, beaucoup considèrent cette recherche comme faisant partie de son charme. L'expérience varie toutefois en matière de service et de niveau sonore, car l'endroit peut devenir très fréquenté et bruyant, menant à des opinions divergentes sur sa capacité à demeurer un espace de travail calme ou un lieu vibrant et branché pour socialiser.
Would be hard to see as there is no sign with name. Really nice interior high ceilings. Expensive for coffee & doughnut takeaway (13$) & I found the coffee very acidic so didn't drink most of it. There are no prices on the baked goods, & full coffee menu wasn't priced on the menu. Could be improvised.
Sav Sav was one of my favorite matcha spots in the city - until this past weekend.
I've always appreciated their creativity with drinks, but this weekend the vibe was completely ruined by one employee (moustache man… it's clearly not just me…see other reviews 👀).
He made two matchas - one with coconut milk for me (lactose-sensitive girlie over here), & one with regular milk for my friend, who hates coconut milk. Then he plopped them down, said he didn't know which was which, & walked away. Not exactly the kind of attitude you want when you're paying $10+ for a drink…
I messaged the owner, who acknowledged my message… but no apology, no offer to make it right, not even a'sorry you had a bad experience.' Just bad taste all around.
Sadly, won't be going back - there are too many other good spots in this city that get both matcha & customer service right.
Like many spots in Montréal, Sasav ends up relying heavily on its cachet & cool location. The food & drinks are still in the process of catching up to the atmosphere. That is not to say the food & drinks are bad. They are good, but not excellent. The prices are on the high end of what is expected for a Montréal but they are not unexpected.

this is one of the best cafés I've ever tried like literally all of their drinks all of their food, exceptional like I've never eaten sandwich that is that delicious like I'm not even joking. It was as if I was high & eating it, but I wasn't even high & it tasted that good. It's crazy. I was genuinely blown away.
I had been there for happy hour last year summer! It is a great place to have drinks & brunch! Tartine salmon is one of my favourite! Sandwich with Salami, pesto, cheese & hot honey 🍯 is also great!
Super confusing entrance if it's your first time here. You have to enter through the main entrance at 780 Brewster st. If you come during opening, don't expect them to have any food/bakery items ready. Good (expensive) coffee & drinks, & lots of seating.
Version café d'un speakeasy en quelque sorte grand espace avec une belle déco & des choix de drinks intéressants. J'ai pris le matcha à la fraise, un vrai délice!
Cute cafe with a bright, airy atmosphere. The big windows bring in a lot of natural sunlight & there are different seating arrangements, making it a comfortable place to enjoy a coffee with friends, or get some work done at the communal table. Music on top of voices can be a little loud at times. Food & drinks wise, got a chai latte & mocha, both very tasty. The food as well was pretty good, we tried the grilled cheese with tomato soup, & the smoked fish sandwich. We wanted a sweet treat & got the chocolate dessert which was rich & decadent (we couldn't finish it).
Great food & drinks! I ordered a tuna salad didn't expect it to be this good ! It had caviar, slices of albacore tuna & potatoes with a delicious sauce to bring it all together. Also got the matcha daffogato where the matcha shot is cold with a refreshing vanilla ice cream. Highly recommend! Very good price for the dish as well. My friend got the breakfast sandwich which was tasty as well & nicely seasoned.
