Cafe Fernanda — Restaurant in Montreal

Café Fernanda is a true gem in the heart of Montréal, offering an authentically Portuguese café experience right in the Mile End.

Stepping inside, you’re greeted by a cozy, inviting atmosphere and a staff that radiates warmth and charm, making every visit feel like a homecoming.

What truly sets Café Fernanda apart is its incredible selection of Portuguese pastries, especially the renowned pasteis de nata.

The natas are celebrated for their delicate, flaky crust and creamy, perfectly sweetened custard center—qualities that rival even the best bakeries in Portugal.

Beyond the natas, you’ll find an impressive range of drinks—from bold cappuccinos to creamy matcha lattes—and other treats like oat cookies and scones that are equally delightful.

Whether you’re craving a sublime pastry, a comforting drink, or just a welcoming place to relax, Café Fernanda delivers on every level.

For the best pasteis de nata in Montreal—and an all-around outstanding café experience—this is the place to be. Highly...

We went back again today, and we were amazed when the owner walked over holding my daughter's stuffed animal that we must have left months ago! Not only did he remember who it belonged to, but he made my daughter's day by describing how he had fed her food and water, and kept her cozy while she waited. The grilled cheese is great, and so are the desserts and drinks! I love the matcha. We give this cafe...

Café Fernanda is a lovely new addition to the Mile End neighborhood, and it’s already becoming one of my favorite spots. From the moment you step inside, you’re greeted with a warm, cozy and inviting ambiance. The minimalist decor strikes a perfect balance—simple and uncluttered, yet full of warmth and thoughtful touches. The food is fresh, flavorful, and made with care. The coffee is just as impressive.

What truly sets Café Fernanda apart, though, is the hospitality. The host is welcoming and genuinely friendly, making you feel more like a guest in their home than a customer. It’s the kind of place where you'll want to linger....
