Café Redwood — Restaurant in Montreal

Vibe is very sterile inside, not a lot of warmth. And you can hear everyone’s conversations (bad acoustics). The terrace is on a very noisy street with many trucks especially at rush hour. I didn’t have long to stop in but I wanted to review notes before a meeting. The person at the counter didn’t seem to know anything about the menu when I asked questions. The lemonade I had was fine? Seems overrated but I’d give them another shot perhaps …

Edit: and now it seems the ownership or whoever is replying to reviews is making some weird insinuation about me because many of my other reviews are positive - that’s a great way to win clients. I live in the Pointe and love to show love to cafes and restaurants that treat clientele well, because I know Google rating makes a difference. I also reviewed a paper shop in the plateau at the same time as I wrote 3 other reviews because Google gamifies interactions 🤷🏼‍♀️ AND I noticed that perhaps my fave cafe I haven’t even written a review of, so I bookmarked that for later.

This is such a cute spot! I found this café while looking for coffeeshops to go study in, and I fell in love with the vibe! The interior is beautiful and clean, the staff is super friendly. I tried the Mocha Noir and the Dulce de Leche Latte, both were excellent. Very tasty and not too sweet.
