Quite good coffee & atmosphere.

Edit 2025: The taste of a resto / cafe's toilet is make or break & it looks like this one hasn't been properly cleaned in ages. 3 stars & a hard pass until cleanliness improves.

Best latte in Montreal.
They use Ethiopian beans (which I prefer) on regular & have another bean type on rotation. Very balanced taste, doesn't leave you dehydrated or heartburned. The cakes & pastries are made on the spot & are always fresh. Note that they are Japanese style, so low sugar; don't expect an American diabetes experience.

The service is very friendly & they always insist on bringing the food to the table. They have loyalty cards which is a pleasant addition for those who come here often. Coffee beans available for sale.

The café itself is light, spacious, airy & clean. A pleasant experience to sit in overall.

I love coming here to grab a piece of cake! The cake is the fluffiest thing ever & the authentic Japanese style ! Weekends are mostly packed, so highly recommended coming here on weekdays if possible. On top of the food, the staff are always very friendly & welcoming :)

Visited on Saturday afternoon.
Clean & cozy place.
I love their cakes because it's light & not too sweet.
Found that the seats by the window are not so comfortable especially to eat, however, I still like the vibe of the cafe.
It's a perfect place to chat with friends over tasty drinks & desserts. Wish they open a bit longer than 4pm on weekends

Popped in to rest my tired feet & wait for hotel check in time. Service was fine if not lukewarm. Immediately after I ordered, a rush of people came including online & in person orders. My espresso based drink & snack took 20 minutes. If I wasn't killing time, I likely would have cancelled order & left. Misto was fine, madeleines were dry & lacked flavour. I also received wrong flavour but as I sat across from customers (ordered after me) who ordered same thing, notices they got the last two. If my feet weren't killing, I likely would have contined to wander & explore.

The cafe owner (I think) told me that the place has a white & clean concept & it really comes through

They actively keep the place clean & tidy

The Earl gray donut was so good with the hojicha latte that I went for a second one!

This place has WiFi & would be such an amazing place to work out of during the day!

Leur matcha latte n'est pas le meilleur dans la ville, mais, mais! La gâteau! Merveilleux & délicieux & excellent! & aussi les pours overs sont bons aussi! Je l'ai visité plusieurs fois, les baristas sont aimables & l'ambiance est magnifique.
