Review Summary

Sweet Lee's Boulangerie Rustique in Verdun is described as a cozy European style cafe and bakery with a bright, welcoming space perfect for a coffee break or a casual meet up. The pastries and desserts are frequently praised for quality, with several standout items and solid coffee, though some reviews flag inconsistency and occasional stale or underbaked bites, along with higher prices for the area. Service is noted as friendly but sometimes slow or forgetful, especially when busy, and a few orders have been mixed up or tables left unclean. The ambiance and decor receive frequent compliments, and the site is said to be pleasant for studying or lingering, with a warmer atmosphere noted before and after renovations. Overall, Sweet Lee's offers a charming neighborhood spot with good coffee and pastries, but price and consistency concerns surface across visits.

As of March 2024, absolutely heartbroken about what has happened to this place. For as long as they had been in Verdun, Sweet Lees was my go-to place in a neighborhood with tons of option for both coffee & baked goods. They were simply the best. I was crushed to find out when dropping by yesterday that it suddenly looked like a completely different business, now almost all seating & with the food counter a tiny fraction of the size it used to be, with their inventory naturally cut down just as drastically. Despite how upset I was about it, I still tried to give them a chance & check whether the quality of the food & drinks were still the same. Unfortunately, again, instead of being reassured I had to face the reality that I would have to completely grieve what Sweet Lees used to be. Matcha latté ordered to drink on the spot arrived at a tepid temperature already too barely over room temperature to be enjoyable to drink, let alone sit down & enjoy at a leisure pace. Considering how much they sacrificed to get more seating space, it's strange how this gave the message that they wanted me to hurry up drinking & just get out of there. Also ordered a little cup of maple syrup trifle. Custard was incredibly stodgy, which is sort of an issue when it is the main component of the dessert. I never though there would be a day I would leave a negative review about this place. To be fair, I also never thought that Sweet Lees would one day be run by people who'd decide they'd rather be a middling coffee shop with fancy furniture than a fantastic rustic bakery. If anyone needs me, I'll be busy mourning for a while.

Le Sweet Lee's d'avant (anciens propriétaires) était une perle. Depuis sa vente à de nouveaux propriétaires, il y a une baisse notable de la qualité. Entre autres, les croissants semblent être achetés préfaits, contrairement aux délicieux croissants d'avant. Il y a moins de choix également. Nous y allions presque chaque semaine, mais nous n'irons plus, car l'endroit ne mérite plus le détour.

Depuis près d'un an, je suis une habituée du Sweet Lee's, visitant le café chaque week-end. J'ai toujours apprécié la qualité exceptionnelle du café, parmi les meilleurs que j'aie eu à Montréal, ainsi que la délicatesse des croissants variés. Cependant, depuis le changement de propriétaire, ma satisfaction a diminué, que ce soit en termes de qualité du café ou du moelleux, de la légèreté & de l'aération des croissants qui ne sont malheureusement plus les mêmes. Néanmoins, l'ambiance demeure agréable, & le personnel reste cordial.

Le sweet lee's Rustic Bakery, c'est un endroit assez sympa & relax pour y manger un petit snack & siroter un bon café. La nourriture y est très bonne & leurs petit dessert exquis. L'ambiance est cool & paisible . Le personnel est chaleureux & courtois, mais la préposée qui m'a servi semblait un peu débordé ne sachant plus quel café j'avais commandé & avait oublié la tartelette que j'avais commandé sur le présentoir. Mais bon elle s'est reprise de ses oublies . Lâche pas ma belle c'est avec le temps que tu deviendras des plus professionnel. 😉
