Café Shaughnessy is an independent coffee shop located in Shaughnessy Village, downtown Montreal. We serve specialty direct trade coffee and home baked goods in a laid-back atmosphere.
Shaughnessy Café comes across as a cozy basement spot with a stylish vibe and attentive service, where reviewers praise strong coffee, well made pastries, and an inviting atmosphere that suits work or a relaxed visit. The space is described as cleverly designed with varied seating options and an elegant yet cozy ambience that fits a downtown neighborhood profile. The experience is generally positive for the coffee, pastries, and friendly staff, with some notes about occasional pastry freshness issues or slow cold brew service and a sense that some items may be pricey, but overall the cafe is regarded as worth a visit and even offers wine nights that add social appeal.
Just moved in the hood so went in to try their regular plain filter coffee. Vibes were very mile-end hipster, very cozy so 4 star for the ambiance though very very small. Service was good but $4 for a regular filter coffee that taste exactly like mcdonalds $1 promo coffee (mcdo is just 2 mins away). Weird that I had to ask for cream (usually many cafes have thermos of milk/cream at some corner) & the cashier just pour milk in my coffee even though I asked specifically for cream. NOT GOING BACK.
Excited to try this cafe since it's one of the best rated cafe in the area! Very cute interior deco, with an above-average latte for Montreal standard. Very poor customer service however. The lady that took my order & made my drink was cold & not friendly at all, left a bitter taste especially for a first timer. Visited Sat Aug 17th 12:35pm.

Great cafe with a comfortable atmosphere. The espresso was okay, & the crossaint didn't taste fresh. Staff was very friendly & drinks were put pretty quickly. Overall good experience.
Apart from the spider web I was sitting next to, the place is super cozy & cute. I particularly like the big window lined up with plants. They also make the best chai latter I've ever had in MTL with the cute latte art at the top! Also, super convenient location & access through two doors one each side of the café.
I like this special cafe,& some outside seats let us take a pleasure coffee time in the afternoon.the atmosphere is very nice,as with wonderful music & warm service.highly recommend！
Very cute little peaceful cafe in a busy area. I like the atmosphere & the flat white was very good. You can tell the beans are high quality. Would definitely recommend going, & if i lived in mtl i would go again 🥰

Delicious filter coffee black is a dream come true at this cafe. The breakfast sandwich & pastries made our daily stop at this heavenly oasis all the more enjoyable. Thank you to the friendly folks working here for the kind service & great music. 10/10
J'habite juste en face, les lattes, matcha ainsi que le sandwich déjeuner sont excellent! Le café est vraiment très bon, nous pouvons même l'acheter pour la maison. Le service est toujours courtois, je suis toujours émerveillée par vos dessins avec la mousse de lait!
I liked this cafe. There was a good selection of pastries & drinks, it seemed to be a good place to study judging from the number of people doing it. The service was really good & I enjoyed my London fog. The tables could have been a little cleaner but other than that it was good.

The ideal cafe in Montreal - I'd strongly recommend it to all! I love the incentive to bring reusable cups to receive a discount (encourage zero waste behavior*!)
It's a nice comfortable Cafe that feels tucked away from the hustle & bustle of the city, but at the same time, it is only 1 block away from all necessary amenities. Subway station, mall, movie theater, etc.
This results in a very convenient location, providing people with a great balance of environment.
