They have vegan options. The sandwich was okay & the galette a bit dry. The coffee was excellent. I had a decaf oat milk latte. I prefer this compared to other chains like Starbucks & Second Cup. They are only located around the Quebec City area as I have not seen one in Montreal.

Never seen such disorganized staff! Talking to each other when dealing with customers & not keeping the correct line of queue with orders. The coffee & the pastries were good though!

Just the right spot to sit down, sip a good coffee & listen to the street performance. The red velvet macaron was the perfect accompaniment to elevate the boldness of the cappuccino. My wife very much enjoyed her dragon pearl tea which I could smell the floral aroma from across the table.
