Le café est excellent, de saison et toujours frais. Les pâtisseries sont superbes et variées. De plus, le service est très bon, rapide et friendly.
Easily the best coffee I had during my entire 5 day trip to Montreal. Smooth, perfectly balanced americano and tasty pastry available. Also loved that they had a small section of vintage homeware too.
If you love good coffee, definitely check out diff.
Ordered a flat white. Espresso shot was perfectly extracted. Milk was properly steamed. Barista knew what he was doing.

Diff. is a cozy cafe serving excellent coffee, delicious pastries, and warm hospitality. Their baristas are friendly and attentive, making it a pleasant spot to relax. The menu features a range of treats, including famous blueberry scones and tasty flat whites. Customers often enjoy the freshly baked cookies, which are still warm when served, with a perfect crust hardened just right and loaded with chocolate chips. The espresso is roasty, fresh, and well-balanced, avoiding the overly acidic or fruity taste common in many city cafes. The small and cozy environment, combined with friendly staff, makes it a top choice for coffee lovers. Visitors also appreciate the vintage finds and the chance to buy good books and Russian dolls. Despite the morning rush, the staff remain cheerful and accommodating, ensuring a comfortable dining experience.
