The coffee is consistently really good. Unfortunately, the service is occasionally depressingly bad. As someone who has worked in service industries, I’m totally sympathetic to how difficult it can be interacting with customers all day. However, I find that some of the servers at this location are so unfriendly to a point that just leaves me feeling pretty bad. I definitely try to be kind to customer service people and I know it’s a weird complaint because I actually I would never want to demand that servers be friendly but the level of coldness often feels quite unwarranted. I keep coming back to the cafe because the coffee’s very good but to be honest (and I know I’m being a bit dramatic) I sort of dread the interactions.
I’m certainly not of the opinion that the customer is always right, far from it. Obviously, customers’ bad behaviour shouldn’t be tolerated. At the same time, I don’t believe that servers’ excessive rudeness should be normalized. Most of us are losing in the class struggle, a lot of us are precariats getting ground down by a brutal system. I just think we can attempt to make each other’s lives a little easier by remembering each other’s humanity and exercising a modicum of kindness.
Anyway, the coffee’s good.

chef’s kiss to the person who makes almond croissant!!! but the chai latte keeps disappointing me. it mostly tastes like steamed milk and lacks spices of chai.

Stated next door to this cafe on Mackay road. Had a latte every morning I was there, it was better than the four or five other places I tried. Everybody was friendly and latte was great and dark chocolate chunk cookies were real good

Coffee and croissants were really good! Will definitely come back

Cozy cafe, not a lot of choice though.

I just had a coffee here with a friend, a bit tight space and crowded, as is very close to the Concordia university

It’s fairly small, with a couple of seats. The coffee was alright but the service was not the best. Unfortunately I don’t speak French and the lady looked a bit annoyed by it and rolled her eyes. Keep in mind that this is located in a highly touristic area.

Stayed in Montreal for a couple nights and this coffee shop quickly become the morning stop. Their coffee is great and the vegan muffins are amazing. The shop itself is pretty cozy and has great service

The mocha was really good. It wasn’t overly sweet and had a nice balance between the chocolate and espresso flavors.
Cafe Myriade is doing god's work. I used to come here during my undergrad years ago, and back then they were serving 49th Parallel (which is certifiably mid) and it felt overpriced. In recent years they started doing their own roasting, which lead to a massive improvement in quality, and at the same time as this, they somehow LOWERED their prices substantially. All of this during a cost of living crisis. Myriade has the most affordable third wave coffee in the city, and it is simply excellent. The roasting is more on the medium side, which is fine by me. Reminds me of Blue Bottle Japan or some such thing. In addition to all of this, they have the best, most friendly staff in the city. And the low staff turnover is evidence I think that something is going right here.
