It’s close to McGill campus and has a very nice place to work, with large windows that make it very bright during the summer. Open longer than many local cafés, which is a bonus! Cakes are delicious and usually fresh. The only problem is when it gets crowded, with usually one or two staff who are both baristas and responsible for taking care of the place, you might end up with tables left unclean and no one taking the dishes or leftovers.

The cafe has a nice cozy vibe for studying or hanging out. I ordered a mocha latte but the price I paid for a medium, I expected a bit of a larger size. It's bit on the sweeter side but I like the consistency with the steamed milk. Service was alright, the guy who served me seemed a bit grumpy. At least they have a student discount which is nice.

Ordered vanilla latte and a marble chocolate loaf. The latte was fine and the loaf was a bit dry, might have been because the place was about to close. Other than that the place is cozy to work.

After placing my order, I waited about 10 minutes. When the drink was finally ready, the staff only called out the drink name without confirming the customer, and another customer took my coffee by mistake. That customer later put the item back, but the staff initially still attempted to hand the same cup to me. Although they later said they would remake the drink, the second cup was prepared much faster than the original, looked noticeably different, and no explanation was given about the preparation process. This made it impossible to confirm whether the drink was actually remade from scratch. Under these circumstances, I completely lost trust in the food safety and service procedures, so I am giving one star

A beautifully made place. It feels like sitting on a cozy street in old Europe. A little balcony with coffee cups hanging from it, a dark wooden chair, sipping coffee while watching a busy Montreal street go by. They have sweet, as well as non-sweet options

A cozy place with delicious tiramisu. I went there with my friend on her graduation day, and when the owner found out, he kindly gave us a discount for the occasion. Thank you so much!💛

Very cozy, a bit dark, and tad out of style. Ordered a simple chai latte, stayed for over an hour was not bothered. Someone that seemed like a teacher was correcting/ writing down stuff. Idk its giving that one line in "La Boheme". Intrigued enough to try it again. Might be a sublime spot if Students actually dont still know about it. The real struggle of any cafe enjoyer is needing space and the place being too popular/crowded so you cant stay too long. Idk this brought back memories.
