Shaughnessy Café is repeatedly described as a cozy, trendy spot with a warm, friendly staff and a welcoming vibe that makes it feel like a neighborhood favorite. The coffee program receives high praise for strong, aromatic brews, excellent lattes including oat milk options, and a large variety of beans, with some noting the cappuccino and chai lattes as standout. Pastries and light bites are frequently highlighted as fresh and delicious, while sandwiches and breakfast items are tasty, though a few reviews mention a croissant that fell short and occasional wait times or limited seating due to the small space. The ambiance is often called artsy and comfortable, with music, good lighting, and a productive or relaxed atmosphere, making it a popular spot for work, study, or casual visits. Wine nights and a diverse beverage selection beyond coffee add to the appeal, while the overall sentiment remains highly positive and people look forward to returning, citing consistent service, a charming neighborhood vibe, and the feeling of being well taken care of.

5.0

Amazing dirty chai lattes. Very small place, not ideal for sitting more than 2. Breakfast sandwiches are surprising delicious. Very expensive

Loved the vibes , loved the plants. They have a variety of cool products like sardines, olive oil, wine & stuff but damn I had a scone & I think there was mold in it. But I also had a chai & it was absolutely amazing. Also for anyone who care they have microbewery iPas & maybe neipas 9/10 would get moldy scone again if paired with their chai.

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've been coming to Shaughnessy for a few years now & I still think it's the best coffee shop around. The coffee is excellent & their Chai latte & London fog are the best I've had in the area by a mile. They have a big selection of pastries (always fresh & damn good) as well as food options (their breakfast sandwich, can be made w/o meat, is SO good & so is their chia pudding). The space is welcoming, has a great vibe, good music & is well set up for meeting up with friends or studying. The staff is dope & they have an amazing selection of beans, natural wines & coffee paraphernalia. Highly recommend!
