Côte Café — Restaurant in Montreal

A Hidden Gem in Montréal – Cozy, Delicious, and So Charming!

I stumbled upon Cote Café during a quick stop on my way through the Côte-des-Neiges area, and I’m so glad I did. This place is truly one of the cutest cafés I’ve ever come across in Montréal. Tucked away just enough to feel like a local secret, the cozy ambiance immediately drew me in. Warm wood accents, minimalistic decor, and soft lighting give it that perfect blend of modern and homey. You can tell a lot of care has gone into crafting the vibe.

I ordered a cappuccino and it was fantastic. The coffee itself was rich and well-balanced, with a unique and refreshing layer. It wasn’t overpowering at all; just enough to make you stop and say, “Wow, that’s different – in the best way.”

I also picked up a spinach danish roll, which was flaky, warm, and packed with flavor. It had just the right amount of filling and a buttery, golden crust that practically melted in my mouth. Fresh, satisfying, and clearly made with quality ingredients.

The staff was friendly and welcoming, even though I was just popping in quickly. It’s the kind of place where you could just as easily sit for hours reading or working as you could grab something on the go.

Overall, Cote Café has earned a spot on my list of Montréal must-visits. Whether you’re in the neighborhood or just passing through, it’s absolutely worth a stop....

What a lovely, lovely café! The space itself is so warm, inviting, and relaxing to the spirit. I was happy the customer before me took some time to give his order so I could take a moment to sit and just enjoy being in that space. It gave me time to look around and appreciate the ambiance. The super cute tables outside, the plants inside, the eclectic and grounding feel of the place just makes you wanna sit there, maybe read a book, and enjoy your coffee. The service was top quality. The only bummer to my experience is that the matcha latte was so good I finished it fast, ha! Will definitely go back and most definitely recommend! That café is a VIBE. Thanks Charles for the delicious beverage and for setting up such a vibrant...

June 12, 6:00am, First day open. Coffee is their business and they’ve got it right. Tiny place, great atmosphere. Bakery and sandwich products to follow. Looking forward to trying everything out.

Fast forward from June, 2023 to July, 2025. From the hanging plants to the coffee products to the food to the baristas to the customers to the owners to the coffee served - this place has far exceeded it’s potential as the best laid back vibe hangout in the city. You can’t do better. You’ll be treated well, served excellent product no matter what you order, meet really nice people (from everywhere), and enjoy this oasis of contentment on...
