Noble Café — Restaurant in Montreal

In response to MIss Brohm's review - This is the first time I felt compelled to leave a review on Google - Mainly to show that there's always three sides to every story (review).

I was there when the alleged facts happened today

Let me begin by saying that I have no affiliations whatsoever with the owners - I've been a 100% satisfied customer of Noble café for about 3 years now and always had top notch service and the best coffee in town

Now, for context... this is a small take-out establishment with extremely limited space - barely 30 square feet with no seating area. The business is designed for quick, efficient service, not as a lounge. Miss Brohm and her friend were monopolizing a significant part of the tiny space, preventing other potential customers from entering or placing orders.

Funny she should say that she didn't want to go outside to make the clothing exchange because of freezing temperatures but in so doing, forced other customers to have to wait outside as other patrons made their orders

The owner's request to step outside was not only reasonable but done politely, especially given the tight quarters. The reviewer seem to have forgotten that she and her friend were essentially blocking access for others after finishing their coffee. While the original review claims the owner was rude, my observation was quite the opposite. The request was made courteously and was entirely justified given the physical constraints of the cafe. In fact, the owner was showing consideration for other customers who were unable to enter or place their orders due to the space being occupied.

It was Miss Brohm who acted rude and entitled - And as I was leaving I could hear her say to her friend : "Oh the bad review they're gonna get"

Which goes to show, Google reviews doesn't always reflect the reality of what...

I read a previous review about the dog issue at your coffee shop, as well as your response. I understand you not wanting dogs in your establishment for the reasons you’ve given. Let’s face it some dog owners are oblivious, but it goes both ways. The reality is that your coffee shop is not a place where people come to sit down and stay. It’s a grab and go. Don’t you think a dog would be more of a threat to children if it were left unattended outside where everyone is waiting? The only people inside are the workers, not the customers. All that said I get it and you can do what you want but use a little judgment. I brought my 4lb Chihuahua in and was holding her.. absolutely no threat to anyone and was told to leave. Had I left her outside unattended she could easily been stolen or attacked by the other dog waiting outside because she’s so small. I’ve never been asked to leave a place while holding her, because most people can see that leaving her on her own outside would be super sketch. All I wanted was a coffee and croissant in peace, instead I was told to leave

Perfect summer treats.

Stumbled onto this little counter-serve spot while wandering the neighborhood. A coffee and ice cream bar with just a few outdoor tables, and it was clearly popular among the locals. They seemed to specialize in ice cream floats (flotteurs), soft serve dropped into cold brew, juice, or tea. Some people called it affogato, but since they don’t use hot espresso nor gelato, this was closer to an ice cream float.

First of all, the soft serve itself was impeccable. Feather-light, silky, and gone the second it hit the tongue. It melted fast, but so did I. Five minutes later the cup was empty.

We tried two versions: cold brew and cassis. In the former, the coffee’s bitterness folded neatly into the soft serve’s gentle sweetness, so it was more like a creamy latte. The cassis was my favorite though. The cassis concentrate they used was bold and slightly syrupy, which turned the soft serve into a sugar-charged sorbet. Definitely the best ice cream float I ever had, and would absolutely come back whenever I’m back...
