As someone who has recently started working from Lundis au Soleil on weekdays with a friend, I can confidently say it has become my favorite café in Montreal. Each visit strikes the perfect balance between productivity and relaxation, making it my go-to spot for getting work done outside of home. From the cozy ambiance to the delicious food and drinks, it’s the ideal place to spend a few hours.
I’ll be posting a video review on TikTok (@Foxy.appetite) and Instagram (@Foxyappetite) soon!
In depth review:
Ambiance (5/5) What immediately sets Lundis au Soleil apart is its atmosphere. The café is filled with lush plants, which bring a refreshing, natural vibe that feels like an oasis in the heart of the city. The greenery—on shelves, in floor pots, and perched on windowsills—adds both life and color to the space. The seating options are equally diverse and thoughtful. There’s a long bar area that’s perfect for solo work or enjoying a coffee while people-watching. For a more intimate feel, the cozy booth benches are ideal for chatting with a friend or diving into work. If you’re seeking a romantic setting, small, tucked-away tables provide the perfect ambiance for a date. Whether you’re here to work, relax, or connect with someone, there’s a seating arrangement to suit every mood.
Service (5/5) It has the feel of a neighborhood gem where the staff remembers your name and makes you feel right at home. The service is both friendly and efficient, which I particularly appreciate when I’m trying to stay productive. The staff is attentive without being intrusive, always ready to offer suggestions or engage in light conversation when asked. I’ve never had trouble finding a seat, and I’ve always been able to enjoy my time here in peace, making it a great spot for focused work or quiet conversations.
Food and Drink (5/5) The food and drink options at Lundis au Soleil are nothing short of outstanding. One of the things I love is their ever-changing special menu, which ensures there’s always something new to try. Whether you’re craving a light breakfast, a hearty lunch, or a refreshing coffee to power through your afternoon, you’ll find something that hits the spot. • Lunch Options: I often go for their soup specials, which are always delicious. Today, I had a fantastic mushroom soup, and the seasonal produce ensures that the veggies are always fresh. • Beverages: The coffee here is consistently excellent. From smooth lattes to rich matcha drinks, each cup is a treat.
Overall Experience (5/5) Lundis au Soleil has quickly become a staple in my routine, and it’s easy to see why. The inviting, plant-filled atmosphere, combined with comfortable seating options (whether you’re here to work or simply unwind), and consistently excellent food and drinks make it a standout café in Montreal. It’s the perfect place for working with a friend, enjoying a light meal, or even having a quiet, intimate date. Every visit is a pleasure, and I highly recommend this cozy, relaxing spot to anyone looking to spend quality time in a welcoming environment.

The bread was dry and stale, and did not come with butter (I had to ask for the waitress for it). The vegetables were undercooked and hard. This was especially the case for the butternut squash and potatoes. The fish was chewy, fatty, and had a rubbery texture. All the sauces or cream meant to be in the dishes were served in a blob on the side of the plate, not directly on the food. The presentation of the food was aesthetically pleasing, but the taste left much to be desired in my opinion. My friend, on the hand, really liked the food.
The portions were small and there were few food options, almost all of which were vegetables. Not worth the money. The focus is clearly the wine, which was very tasty.

Gentrified place that is not very welcoming to people who are not white French speakers, although we spoke to them in French only. The waiters looked like they couldn't wait to get us out of there. They kept asking us if we had finished eating while we were chatting. I moved to the neighborhood two years ago and have always wanted to try this place hoping it will become one of my favorite hangouts. I don't plan on going back after this.

Appears as a nice little local restaurant. Service was good and friendly, Food was pretty good but expensive for what you get. Wine markup is what left a bad taste. $75 for a $25 bottle is way too much. Wouldn’t go back which is a shame.

Wow great place. The wines, mostly natural, were delicious. The sharing plates were good sizes and the prices were very reasonable. I recommend you try the corn broth, my favorite!!
On a essayé presque tous les plats du menu, tout était excellent honnêtement un sans faute au niveau des plats salés, par contre on a pas trop aimé les desserts (le gâteau au zucchini et le panna cotta). Le service était rapide, le serveur était sympathique et nous a expliqué les plats pour nous aider à faire notre choix. C’est sûr qu’on reviendra!
