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.
Super cute & agréable! Staff vraiment gentil qui vont reconnaitre les réguliers & peuvent même leur offir de petits extras super apprécié (ex: Crème fouettée sur un café, Merci Abdel, hihi!)
Beaucoup de places assises sur un beau coin lumineux de Saint-Denis. Musique toujours calme. Peut parfois être bruyant s'il y a beaucoup de gens, mais puisque c'est grand, il y a toujours de la place assise dans un coin tranquille.

Quite rude & racist if you ask me. The rain started pouring & I ran under their patio for the rain to die down & I had just gone to by & put my drink down & took a bite of my food & apparently that was wrong. I proceeded to have a racist man with a moustache come outside & berate me as he could clearly see the rain. I would avoid this place like the plague if you care anything about equal rights. That was actually terrible. Edit: I called this pathetic place to get a semblance of an apology or explanation but instead was hung up on. Iron while trying find my air bnb i passed & there were quite a few white patrons just outside the door with no issues, just lounging about. Again, I could speak until I am blue in the face against racism but unfortunately places like this will always exist. I can only hope that those who stand a gazing hate & clear racism can go elsewhere or either way, their karma will eventually come to them.
Excellent café ; Le service est toujours accueillant & le personnel est souriant. Le café est de très bonne qualité & l'ambiance est chaleureuse. C'est un endroit parfait pour prendre un café ou étudier tranquillement. Je reviendrai sûrement
Superbe découverte ! Un endroit charmant avec une ambiance cosy, idéale pour se détendre. Le cappuccino était excellent & le gâteau au fromage est délicieux. Le personnel est très accueillant & souriant. Je reviendrai sans hésiter !
