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.
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.
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
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!

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!
