Review Summary

Second Cup Café receives mixed feedback, with many customers praising the warm, cozy atmosphere and friendly staff who contribute to a welcoming environment for studying, working, or relaxing. While the quality of the coffee and specialty drinks is frequently highlighted as a positive aspect of the experience, the integration of a food counter within the space has led to concerns regarding conflicting food odors and a limited menu selection. Consistent issues noted in the reviews include reports of long wait times during busy periods due to understaffing, concerns regarding washroom maintenance, and occasional dissatisfaction with specific drink preparations or menu options. Overall, the location is valued for its central location and inviting interior design, though experiences can fluctuate depending on staffing levels and shared service arrangements.

Ça fait quelques fois que j'y vais & je tient à dire que les préposées au comptoir es sont tous bien gentils. Ils font de leur mieux & ça se voit. C'est un bel endroit , la musique est un peu forte par contre. Les pâtisseries ne sont jamais très fraîche... Les muffins & & les biscuits sont complètement secs. La toilette est un désastre mais je comprend que nous sommes au centre ville de Montréal. Toutefois je conseil cet endroit & félicite les employés qui ont bon coeur.

The coffee & croissant we had were fantastic as was the service however the bathroom was disgusting. The bathroom smelled like urine upon opening the door, the toilet, sink, & floor were (gross) dirty, & there was no paper towels to dry one's hands. The bathroom was disgusting.

Un cadre sympathique, une serveuse à l'écoute mais la commande est mal cernée car le petit crème se transforme en 1/2 litre de café au lait. Le cadre est moderne & relativement propre
