“ Every dessert we bought tasted amazing (and we bought a lot). My favourites: chocolate pecan cookie and the oreo rice krispy. The salmon bagel was so good. We don’t have pictures cause we ate everything. ... ”
“ As a matcha lover, this is AMAZING. Hands down one of the best place to get matcha in QC. The freshly whisked ceremonial grade matcha foam just melts in my mouth like OOH ”
“ A very nice cafe with very cool interior. The space is pretty huge with big benches as well as small table for seating yet it’s always busy. I tried their salmon bagel which was pretty average and their tofu poke bowl which was good. The staff is very friendly and the service is quick. Would definitely love to give another visit to this cafe to try more pastries and coffee. ”
“ A very cute cafe with affordable prices and good plant based options. The drinks all have milk alternatives and they have veg and non-veg desserts and ice creams. The prepared food is south-Asian style like banh mi and poke. They have tofu bowls and a vegan pate made from potato and seeds. Everything is well marked for dietary restrictions. By personal preference, I didn’t like the poke bowl but that is not a reflection on the quality. ”
“ Excellent coffee shop in the heart of St-Roch district. We found this little gem by wandering along St-Joseph street. The atmosphere is relaxed and inviting. Their coffees are deliciously brewed. There’s also a very decent selections of premium teas. My daughters LOVED their milk shakes and cookies. It is also dog friendly. Competitive prices for the quality of coffees, 10x better than Starbucks! Staff bilingual and very courteous. Highly recommend! ”
“ The salmon bagel was to absolutely die for and we still talk about how good it was! Really creamy hot chocolate and pretty good service. Loved the different combinations of cuisine here, would definitely love to visit again! ”
“ Delightful ice tea was so good on a hot summer day. Interior is cozy and quiet, glad we had a chance to stop by. ”
“ We came here for a quick morning coffee, and a snack. We tried the carrot muffin and I got a cup of filtered coffee. The baked goods were extremely delicious and the coffee was good too. They have a lot of seating with the large benches for families and they have some smaller tables. They also have a space for you to sit and work with Wi-Fi and electrical outlets. The staff is really helpful and they speak both English and French. I like the space a lot and would definitely recommend a visit. ”
