Review Summary

THE STANDARD Café is recognized as a cozy, minimalist spot offering decent coffee and quality pastries, though the overall experience is inconsistent. While many guests enjoy the flavor of the beverages and the atmosphere, feedback frequently highlights issues with poor customer service, inattentive staff, and frustration regarding the recent use of budget milk alternatives. Additionally, concerns have been raised about technical issues like unreliable internet and leaking takeaway cups, making the location better suited for quick visits than for working or lingering.

Paid $7.15 for a small soy latte … since when are they using Kirkland brand soy milk? For that price y'all should be using better quality milk like you used to. I am very disappointed.

*UPDATE*

Really guys?

Using Kirkland oat milk & other Kirkland milks at a place where'Coffee is one of life's little pleasures' is pathetic 😂

If you want me to pay 8$ for a latte you better at least use quality milks. Even the best Baristas can't cover up that budget oat milk flavor.

No chunky bubbles in my oat latte? Let's gooooooo.

It's nice when baristas actually know what they are doing.

Also love their minimalist esthetic & simple menu. Hearing the words'We have no cinnamon here' was music to my ears 🤣🔥

Coffee is for many a necessity. There are a ton of great coffee shops across our beautiful city of Montreal. I've come to this cafe a few times & have always enjoyed the quality of their coffee. I passed by this morning to quickly grab a coffee & the gentleman who served me greeted me with such warmth & care that I had to take a moment to write this review of appreciation. The barista asked me how my day was going & i admitted to him that my family & I are dealing with a health emergency & doing our best to keep positive. This barista was so genuinely caring & offered me such kind words. I was so touched by his sincerity & kindness........... these types of things don't happen very often, & to have received this touch of humanity when I needed it the most serves as a testament of the quality of character ppl have. So touched, so impressed, so thankful: Mateo, you are a splendid human & I wish you much success. Please Visit this café for great coffee & a wonderful experience. Sincerely JM.

High-quality coffee & baristas know their job & how to make real coffee. One of those places that takes time for their customers.
