Second Cup Café stands out for a warm vibe, super friendly staff, and tasty coffee and pastries in a cozy space that many find great for studying or catching up with friends, with some describing the cafe as beautiful and inviting; it can get crowded on weekends near the universities and finding a seat may be challenging. Some reviews mention occasional hiccups such as restricted restroom access, gift card issues, or inconsistencies in service or beverage quality, including a burnt coffee remark, but the overall impression remains positive with frequent notes on helpful staff and a welcoming atmosphere.
Les produits sont délicieux, les muffins sont tellement moelleux & frais même en fin de journée. Coup de coeur pour le matcha à la fraise qui était extraordinaire mais pas trop sucré, l'un des seul matcha qui ne goûte pas l'herbe. J'ai adoré l'attention des journaux de Montréal mis à notre disposition
Je m'y suis rendu prendre un café aprés un spectacle un lundi soir. Le personnel était accueillant & le latté un des meilleurs à Mtl. J'ai compris pourquoi lorsque le proprio ma expliqué qu'il contenait deux expressos. Disons le, cela est loin d'être fréquent que l'on le prépare de cette qualité ailleurs. Cet endroit devient ma référence après spectacle.

L'un des seuls cafés ouverts en ce jour de Réveillon, nous nous sommes arrêtés pour un petit déjeuner au chaud. Les pâtisseries étaient vraiment bonnes, & le latte cannelle un petit délice !
Restroom was closed & it wasn't clear do I have to ask for a key or it's permanently closed. Need for extra communication is irritating for introverted people like me, please consider this.
Tables at the den-like part of the cafe needed cleaning, had to clean it myself. Coffee is ok, hazelnut latte is good but not best. Vibes are nice & quiet
Meilleure endroit pour la famille & pour les étudiants, endroit propre, musique douce , ou j'ai vue beaucoup de clients qui étudie & qui travaillent sur micro, service rapide malgré le nombre de clients, j'ai commandé un latté moca avec un pain au chocolat que d'ailleurs ils m'ont proposé de chauffer c'était vraiment délicieux , ça va être ma favorite destination pour un café
The best thing about this cafe is that is open late. I ordered a decaf latte with soy milk & it was so watery & milky & just not good. But the company & latte might coffee vibes were nice. I can't imagine the taste of the pastries... yikes.
Very nice people. & they work as they own place even though it is not theirs! We rarely find this nowadays I got latte pistachio by the way (first time I hear & try it) & I like it!
Big space, bright, ideal to study. I ordered a matcha latte & it's not as good as I expected (tbh it was the worst matcha cup i've ever tried) it tastes weird somehow. I dont want to be mean but it's true 🥲 Anyway, i will come again since they have a late closing time & i'll try another drink next time.

Friendly staff & good drinks. It was a bit busy when we went but the drinks were still ready within a few minutes of ordering. Great place to stop before work to get a cup of coffee or latte
