Maté Latte

Yummmmmy !! Just had a wonderful crêpe … Banana Foster and a very good Tortilla soup and sandwich !
Cosy atmosphere, very nice team !! Really appreciate the attention to detail !
Stomachs are full… We are heading to the Pourquoi Pas Espresso Bar on Amherst… We need an amazing latte to finish this meal !!

Charming little café in NDG.
Breakfast menu includes a a selection of waffles and crepes, baked goods, and «typical» breakfast items (e.g., bacon, eggs, toast, potatoes). We went around 10:30 on a weekday and they were also starting to put lunch items into the display case, including some amazing looking salads, wraps, and paninis. I was looking for something breakfast-​y and sweet, so I ordered the Bananas Foster waffle and a latte.
The waffle was perfectly cooked with a crisp exterior and a soft and chewy interior. It was topped with a mess of bananas, warm buttery brown sugar sauce, and vanilla ice cream that, although nothing special on its own, melted into the butter-​brown sugar sauce to form a next level creation. Yum. My latte had a bit too much foam for my liking, but was otherwise very good.
Service was friendly and casual. Prices were very reasonable. The décor was eclectic and inviting. I would definitely come back… Although I think I’d be torn between getting the bananas Foster again or to trying some of the other things on the menu =)

A great place to get a monster (sized) cookie and a latte and sit outside to people-​watch. I was so impressed with the friendliness and great service of this place that I wanted to write a glowing review — but was delighted to see that many others have already done so. I liked how there are unique things to nosh on at this café — empanadas and alfajores (which were both delicious) to name a few. Seeing that so many people also loved the service and food here gives me more confidence that our positive experience was not just a fluke, and I look forward to returning!

Stopped in for a smoothie prepared with fresh fruits. Staff is friendly and they have a DVD exchange

I love these guys! The place feels homey, the service is super friendly and the food is all home made and yummy. The only problem with coming here is that I never want to leave!

Great affordable food. No rush move along. I was there for 4 hours and no hassle.

I’ve been there countless of times! The coffee is great, the staff is friendly, and most of all, the food is delicious!

I walked in after doing the night shift, it was 7am on a Thursday morning. An older guy was sitting in the back and one woman was working behind the counter. She greeted me with a smile as low music played through the speakers. I explained I was tired and hungry and I had never been there before. She gave me multiple suggestions till I settled on a waffle with fresh fruit, whipped cream and maple syrup. I ate quietly by myself while she served me. It was so good. The fruit was fresh and delicious, the waffle was made on the spot, the whipped cream was light and the syrup was local and delicious.
Matté Latté was so good that I brought my girlfriend back the next afternoon. The place was packed both inside and out and we were served promptly. Prices are high but fair for the portions and quality you get.

A bit haphazard, with slow, inattentive service, but a friendly place that has good food.
Our «blueberry pancakes» came with no blueberries in the pancakes — berries came in a little bowl.
Cook said she doesn’t like to put berries in batter because they gum up the skillet. Pancakes were still tasty, but we’d have preferred to know what we’d get before it arrived.
Our scrambled eggs and bacon were nicely cooked, with very good home fries.
The only coffee is dark-​roast. If you prefer a lighter roast, you won’t find it here.

Great neighbourhood café, super friendly staff and delicious snacks! Only negative comment, needs some improvement on the wait time…

The best! Beautiful people behind the counter, and lots of delicious items to choose from!

Walked in an checked out the menu full of waffles and crepes
Also eggs bacon yummy
But I ordered a fresh baguette with butter
A delicious cinnamon brioche
And a macchiato
All of this was amazing
Couldn’t wait for the next bite
Get over here and enjoy

Not bad. I’ve had good and bad lattes here. Lots of room, outdoor terrace in the summer. I’d go back.

We ordered the basic breakfast dish and the dolce de lece waffle. Basic breakfast was really good, the potatoes cooked to perfection. The dolce de lece and cream on my waffle was really good. For me, I prefer a little bit darker crunchier waffle. Still the cream and dolce de lece were delicious. What I think really makes this place nice is that you don’t feel rushed out. It feels really nice to sip a giant latte and linger over the sun pouring in the front window. Great vibe and a really charming wait staff.

Hmmm… we had breakfast here this morning, and yes it was absolutely tasty and the staff were super friendly… but I can’t give it 5 stars:
It doesn’t feel like a schmancy-​fancy place, but the prices seem a little steep for what you get… my husband had the «waffles» and I had the «crepes», but what they really should have said is «waffle» and «crêpe». Delicious, but not a speck of anything else on the plate — no little orange slice, no potatoes, just a plain olé waffle and a crêpe.
I also find it hard to order on the spot (ie at the counter, before you sit down)… I’d much rather sit and have a coffee and contemplate the options… but that’s my own mistake for not reading the reviews here first!
I do give them points for taste though — the waffle was light and fluffy, the crêpe was delicious — and the tzatziki, MMMMM. We ordered a side of potatoes for $ 2 extra and they came with the most delicious tzatziki dip ever. I was dipping my crêpe in the tzatziki at the end just to get the most of it :)
With one cup of coffee and one water our bill was $ 27 — not saying that’s outrageous, just that for almost $ 30 I’d like my breakfast to be a little more rounded out. Not sure we’d go back.

Stayed in Montréal in NDG area and went here for breakfast two days in a row. Had eggs and bacon the first day and they kindly refilled my coffee without having to ask. Second day I was hungover and one of the girls suggested a Mate Latte (a green tea concoction with honey) which was nice. Had the waffles on my second round and it was wonderful. Friends enjoyed their crepes.
Good atmosphere, friendly staff and the owner Andrea has great taste in music. Really nice and family friendly place to chill.

Une p’tite vite juste pour vous dire que la snob de café en moi trouve qu’ils se sont pas mal amélioré côté espresso et latte ces derniers temps. J’essaie de plus en plus de faire mes rencontres là-​bas quand j’ai à faire des réunions vers l’ouest de la ville et en plus, l’internet est vraiment bien. Deux morceaux de robots d’extra!

It’s a charming beautiful place and the food is beautiful. Happy I found it as a spot for breakfast any day of the week.

I love this place. It is so down to earth, relaxed and the staff are very friendly. I really like that almost everything is made in house, from the muffins to the savory tarts. Their coffee works for me, and I consider myself quite picky. Overall, this place can only get better as they learn more and more of what works for their business!

The alfajores are to die for but this café offers a great variety of treasures: Empanadas, torta tricolor, quiche, amazing and creative sandwiches, homemade cookies, cupcakes, etc. All healthy choices that looked fresh out of the kitchen. Everything looked good and it was hard to choose! Thankfully, I was served by Alvin, whom sense of humor is amazing and he was very helpful with his suggestions.
The place seems to be family/​friends run by people from the neighborhood. Definitely gives it a «home» feeling. Will definitely go back!

Found this great little café while looking for a different place in NDG — it was a fantastic little find.
I had waffles with dulce de leche (the real stuff, not the sickly-​sweet kind you sometimes get) while the gf had the banana foster waffles — both were outstanding. There was a bunch of other food on display that looking great, including legit-​looking Argentinean empenadas (I’m going to go back just to try them).
We had lattes, and the coffee was good (but not amazing). They were still better than most breakfast places in Montréal, so it’s not actually a negative.
The staff were really friendly. They offered to combine different things from the menu if we wanted, and gave suggestions when we asked, which was nice.
They had a terrace-​like setup of table and chairs out the front, taking great advantage of NDG’s massive sidewalks — something I’ll definitely be giving it a go on the warmer weekends.
