This is the most adorable & delicious coffee place I've been to in Montreal. The pastries are delicious & the coffee is great. The staff is incredibly friendly & helpful. We are here for a week & I fully expect to go every single day.

Very cute little shop, reasonable prices. The coffee was good...not a generic flavor profile. Will return while I am in Montréal

Service was the one lacking. Maybe it was due to being a Saturday morning. You know. On weekends we should be thankful they're coming in to take our money. Coffee was far from ideal but for Montreal standards I think it is at least above average.

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.

Cappuccino made correctly, not a huge cup full of hot milk; perfect proportions of coffee, milk & foam. Pastries were great too.
