Favorite coffee and donuts and place to work
Fantastic coffee and donuts and a good spot to get work done
Delicious donuts! Great place to work if you need a break from your home or office.
Bad wifi. Not a place to do work unless you can tether your phone.
Lovely place to work or meet up with friends. It's buzzing so not for meetings that require quiet, but coffee is good, doughnuts are good.
Good service. I find the area in the back for laid back because of the seating layout with couches and the fake fireplace. Cute café where people can work, study or just talk with friends.
Everything about the cafe experience is fantastic, l, but the wifi here is atrocious. 250Kbps is unusable, this is 1994 speeds here
I just stumbled upon this great place in Old Montreal. I rarely go to the Old city, but I was with a friend that lives in the Northern part of town and we wanted to act like tourists 😜
I liked the place. One drawback, their wifi seems weak ...not sure if it was a problem with my Smartphone 🤓
The pastries were too white sugar filled for my taste ..very American. I prefer Asian and French pastries, less artificial stuff inside.
Prices seem moderately priced.
Great interior design and they have a terrace!
Servers are very personable 🙏
I would go back for a tea...no dessert for me.
Clean place, quiet atmosphere to work. Service impeccable.
Excellent interior to gather and work. Coffee is great and Lucky’s donuts are even better
Good coffee, good vibe. Often packed with folks working but you’ll find high chair and a lounge in the back, so grab a coffee and enjoy a delicious donut 🍩
Nice place to have a coffee and a scone and do some work esp. In the mourning
wifi does not work. Would’ve been nice to warn the clients before we spend 20$+ for a sandiwch and coffe to sit down and work. Had to go somewhere else to work as it was the purpose of the visit and not the 16$ egg sandwich.
Also, the food is overpriced.
Very Nice Cozy place, minimalist style with great service, good home made bakery , I recommend the donughs comfortable and affordable coffee shop for students. good variety of choices for coffee lovers. They also have wifi available
A great place to have a coffee n donut, beautiful with friendly staff. However it’s not recommended for study on laptops, since you cannot find a place to charge your laptop ;)
Vraiment beau design intérieur, plusieurs espaces pour s'asseoir pour discuter ou venir travailler avec son laptop. Nourriture délicieuse également.
