What an amazing place! Really unique and delicious treats!!! My only problem is with their hours - 7:30-4:30!? Who decided this!? As a working person I have no time to go in the morning (what proper downtown Montrealer is up at 7:30 anyway? That's for suburbanites who have to sit in traffic for 2 hours) and by the time I get off work they're closed. They would have taken 5x more of my money by now if they kept hours that aligned with when I, and I'm sure the majority of their customer pool, can go. Why not 11:00- 7:00? 10:30-6:30? Would probably even be easier for them to find staff, because few young people want to wake up at 6AM to make a 7:30 shift

We are visiting Montreal - we stumbled upon this place and stopped for brunch. Everything was delicious! The people are really friendly. I want to eat all the things in the cabinet; but I’m too full!!I have already pinned this place for my next visit to Montreal - I will definitely be coming back!

Such a lovely little place! Stopped in here with two grumpy kids looking for something remotely healthy, and was thrilled to be able to get them a grilled cheese sandwich and a delicious smoothie- picky kid approved! Super friendly service, several dairy free options for my husband, and an amazing selection of baked goods, all for a reasonable price. We'll be back here.

We were attracted by the exterior decor and once inside we realized it gets better. So many things we would love the purchase including prayer style candles with pop stars or celebrities on them which we loved.Apart from the beautiful and elaborate interior we enjoyed some magnificent, homemade tasting macarons in various delicious flavours and French toast latte, yes read that again, it's as good as it sounds. We also couldn't help but get the cookie adorned with lucky charms which was too  if to finish but still wonderful.

I came there to reconcile myself with the butter pastry but it was a failure.The pistachio macaron lacked pistachio taste (it was free with the mocha on Monday).The Nutella butter ball has neither the taste nor the color of Nutella so it really tastes too much like butter (but that's the concept you tell me). The biscuit was salty...The table was sticky and the chairs do not invite you to relax (there are 2 armchairs).The smell is not particularly pleasant either (it smells like a mixture of humidity and windex). Especially after cleaning the tables because it closes at 4 p.m. and I was there at 3 p.m. (no one other than me on the floor) so the person started cleaning.Anyway, I come out with a slight headache and the desire to get rid of all that butter... too bad it's been a long time since I chilled in a Montreal café.

This is a super cute and aesthetic place to just work a little while eating and drinking a hot chocolate. The food was so good and really not too expensive, also note that the prices are incl taxes!

The most mediocre service, sticky table full of crumbs on which the cutlery was set.45min wait but we arrived on time. A very expeditious and careless service.The worst macarons I have tasted dry, brittle and too sweet, we were not able to finish our pastries and refused to take away the leftovers. It felt like we were eating leftovers from the day before.The imposed menu was not respected, we did not have the quiches and pastries to choose from. The worst tea room I've been to in Montreal.

Thought it was super weird that they display the French macarons so beautifully packaged in a lovely clear box with a ribbon but don’t offer the same packaging when people actually want to buy them? I really wanted to gift the macarons to someone and had asked if they could package it like they were displayed in the windows but instead they gave me my twelve unevenly baked French macarons in a takeaway box.Also didn’t appreciate having being served after other clients when I was waiting first. Most probably because it is a super small place though.
