We stopped for coffee, but ended up buying some savouries as well that were unique & appetising. We enjoyed the food really well. Prices were also decent for the portion.
It was crowded & since the indoor spacing was small, we had to quickly grab the seats. They do have outdoor seating as well. But those get occupied first!

We stayed in a hotel around the corner & came here for breakfast over several days. Their pastries were amazing, quiche was exceptional, so were the coffees. Great value, good service, & plenty of comfortable seating. Very cozy atmosphere with a lot of unique decor.

Great experience! Étienne was super helpful, even grabbing the ingredient binder to answer my questions about the banana bread. The blond barista was lovely, & the coffee & vibes were spot on. Wish we had one in South Shore Montreal!
