Completely downgraded. Over priced. Very odd atmosphere. & the coffee is just no good, sadly. The pastries are okay, just completely over priced along with their sandwiches.

This is my go-to cafe in my neighborhood & I always appreciate the top notch service from the barristas. It really makes all the difference, so much so that even if I have a coffee machine at home, I still love to make an excuse to go there. They put so much care into the sandwich & food preparation as well. Always looking forward to my next visit!

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

Excellent (albeit super tiny) cappuccino. However, the almond croissant was the worst ever croissant created. Soggy, no taste of almonds, no difference between crust & filling....& all this after asking if the croissant was fresh... I don't want to imagine what was a not fresh croissant.
With that, the salmon sandwich that my spouse had was great. Her espresso was also very good.

Mon adresse coup de coeur en tout temps. Le staff est accueillant & amical, le café toujours délicieux, super sandwich déjeuner & les viennoiseries d'Automne Boulangerie sont impeccables (il me faut le muffin choco-bananes à toutes les semaines!). Belle variété de vins & de cidres disponibles pour emporter. À essayer aussi les jeudis & vendredis avant ou après un film au Forum : leur buvette. De merveilleuses entrées à partager & des vins sublimes.

this might seem like no big deal but this is the best bacon egg + cheese breakfast sandwich I've ever had 👌🙂

Great atmosphere & friendly service. I loved the plants & the international theme. Salmon sandwich was good, though I found my cappuccino a little watery. Besides that I look forward to coming back.

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
