I decided to go to this cafe as I saw a lot of cute pictures on Instagram on the way they design their coffees but unfortunately the art design was poorly done and was not even close to what we see on their IG. I was honestly very disappointed as I live an hour away from that cafe and specifically went for their art design. The barista was apologetic and offered to re-make the coffee, but again the design was worst than the first attempt. The owner listened to the entire conversation but decided to leave instead of helping the new employee with the design for the second attempt.

I placed a pick up order with uber eats. As soon as I did, the app said that the pastry I picked was out of stock and asked me to replace it. I did. When I arrived turns out that the item I replaced it with was out of stock as well. This wasn't a big problem but I just hope they update their uber eats menu to genuinely represent their stock. What made me give a 3star review as well was that the girl working at the counter had really long hair that wasn't pulled back or anything. When she was taking and handling food, the ends of her hair were mm away from brushing the pastries and drinks. This was a bit off-putting. A part from that. The latte was good, the pastry was mediocre.

  • Jenny

I was excited to visite this place because of the nice pictures I saw on the internet. Unfortunately, pictures don't always tell you the truth. Service : I have never felt as unwelcomed as yesterday Monday, August 23. The young lady who works there is not only unpleasant, but also unwelcoming. I don't think she is happy working there. Cleaninest: The bathroom doesn't have water. So, please, instead of soap put purell. Also, the place was dusty. Food and taste: I am sorry to say that the taste of the coffee and pastry were as bad as the service. Price: Too pricey for a terrible service and not so good food.

  • Chloë Nault

I got a caramel iced latte and it was quite good. I'm knocking a couple stars because there is no menu in the store (or even online apparently) so you can't see the prices of anything before ordering. And to be able to know what I wanted to order, I was asked a series of questions. Would have just been easier to pick from a list of drinks. I just find that a little sketchy and the owner seemed defensive when I asked about it. Also, I sat at one of the tables outside and the owner came out to sit nearby and started smoking. Just not a great experience for your patrons trying to enjoy their drink outside.

  • Angela Deblasio

I've went here twice so far and the vibe here is so nice and peaceful! It's not so loud and obnoxious and it's a great study space! I loved the friendly atmosphere and the baristas are so friendly. I usually get a latte with a cranberry muffin but I decided to give the chickpea salad a try since it was new on their menu. It was fresh & delicious!

  • Jimmy Chavez

I was there at the opening a couple of years ago. It was a nice little place. Now, I went there a couple of times these last months and I don't find the same atmosphere/ambiance. It is now very noisy for a little place. Not from the customers, I was alone! But from the people working in the café. 2-3 people working at the café and shout at each other because of the loud music is not really the place I would like to be to enjoy a café. Hope it would change.

  • Dihia Hafiane

The girl was very unpleasant... let's say she gave me coffee for free, she put it in a cup for me without asking me if I should have it on the spot or to take away, above all that she dared to say to me: ''but I I’m not going to waste the cup” uh.. like?!?!? girl if you don't like what you do find another passion.. it's not our fault if you don't like your life..

Checked out this place for the first time today. Excellent coffee and pizza (among other snacks and pastries which I have yet to try). It's nice to finally see a modern café open up near Vanier College. If you work in St-Laurent around the Du College area, I recommend you walk over and give it a try. You won't be disappointed.

  • Cindy Hoang

J’adore passer à ce café. Le service y est toujours super, leur café est telleeeement bon. J’adore qu’ils aient un choix de laits végétaux, du matcha, des petites sucreries. Pour l’instant impossible de s’y attarder parce que les salles à manger sont fermées, mais l’endroit est super mignon et cozy.

Pas reçu les cafés que j’ai voulu. J’ai entendu l’employée dire “ je sais comment en faire, mais ça ne me tente pas de faire des arts aujourd’hui” à son collège. C’est le fun d’entendre ça en tant que client. Ce que j’ai reçu comme cafés finalement. Une chance que le goût n’est pas si pire…

  • Nadia Galati

I’m pretty annoyed because everytime i go and i actually go often the prices are never the same but I always take the same order .. just for that reason I don’t feel like going back .. they never give receipts so everytime they tell you a different price maybe they think you won’t remember

Nice welcoming staff. Safe protocols being implemented for the new normal. Their baked goods are absolutely delicious! However their coffees could be ameliorated if they were to provide better third wave coffee beans as they only serve Barista microtorréfacteur in this shop.

  • camelia dadouchi

I ve been wanting to try the only Coffee Shop in the neighborhood and was very excited. As an espresso lover who knows her coffee I can tell you it is disappointing. The pastry I had was equally as bad et the young lady was not very friendly . The decor however is nice …

Lovely little café offering the usual latte and matcha with high quality milk from Saguenay. They also have some bakeries. You should try their signature birthday latte, which is a colourful sweet latte, be sure to take plenty of pictures for your social media sharing.
