This place is underrated. It’s a super cute cafe. We came here to eat a little bit of food and pack something for later. We ordered the broccoli soup and the frittata sandwich. The soup was not too creamy which was good for us. It also came with light crackers which paired well with the soup. The frittata sandwich was something we had never tried before and it was good different and delicious. The frittata was made with potatoes and onions with tomatoes, spinach, and Mayo sandwiched with the frittata in an English Muffin roll. We packed the Turkey, Lettuce, Cheese sandwiched in a baguette. We are yet to try this one. Their costumer service was also really good - friendly and helpful. Give this cafe a try if you can!
A lovely space with a cozy and welcoming atmosphere and a good seating arrangement. A great spot for a quick savory snack including soup and salad, along with delicious coffee and delightful sweet treats.
The coffee is Amazing! The staff is warm and friendly. Just visiting quebec and it nailed my day. Love it.
This place truly stole my heart. It’s one of the most pleasant cafés I’ve ever seen — cozy, inviting, and full of character. The retro vibe gives it a warm, nostalgic feel that makes you want to stay for hours. Every little detail, from the vintage decor to the soft lighting, adds to the atmosphere. It’s the kind of place where you can enjoy a quiet moment alone or have a meaningful conversation with a friend. I’ll definitely be coming back.
We stopped in for a quick coffee and stayed for the croissant and scone. The staff of Lea and her “baker” were delightfully friendly and very patient and encouraging of my attempt at French dialogue! Our bakery items were fresh and delicious. Our coffee’s were warming and the cafe was comfortable. When paying our bill, a 25% tip was for “the best service ever”…which it was. Thank you Lea and The Baker!
Great little cafe! The frittata breakfast sandwich’s were very delicious. My spouse ordered a chai latte, a chocolate croissant, and the breakfast sandwich. I ordered a flat white and breakfast sandwich. Cafe looked cute and cozy inside. Outside was beautiful and surrounded by flowers and greenery with a beautiful view of a cobblestone street. Service was very friendly and welcoming! Would eat here again :)
Came here on a Monday morning and somehow we were the only ones there. I have no idea why or how, because it was truly excellent! The service was wonderful and the space was absolutely adorable, with tons of sweet little knickknacks and gifts to shop around for. We got a veggie omelette sandwich and a cinnamon bun and both were absolutely delicious and the perfect start to our day! Thanks for the wonderful morning. Can’t wait to come back!
Very cute and cozy cafe with lots of coffee and bread options. The barista was super nice and welcoming, and we really loved the atmosphere! The latte itself was just okay, but I’d still love to come back and give it another try.
