Amea Café in Montreal

Gorgeous place, terrible latte though

Went for lunch and I got the fattouch salade, the portions are good. The atmosphere is cozy, people working, friends catching up.

An urban gem, come here to unwind or find your flow. The stairs remind my of a cafe in Ibiza from a lifetime ago.

Large space with different places to sit, not too noisy and with good music. Perfect place to go study and grab a little something to eat!

The most beautiful cafe ever!!!

WASTE OF MONEY! Everything in their menu is super hyper inflated priced. None of their Viennoiserie warrants the price tag they have. Coffees were mid at best and yet priced at Starbucks++ level. Absolutely underperforming. For the ambiance, tables and chairs might have huge height differences making it difficult to have comfortable seating for longer duration. And oh there were flies flying around and over the food. See the video attached. So overall, it s just pretending to be an upscale cafe that it is not. Everything including customers is pretentious here.

Lovely place to hang out for a while, I saw a lot of people working there, finding a free table is a little bit tricky, we had a slice of pizza and some pastries, they were all very good, beautiful building and atmosphere. One of the many Cafés in montreal worth the visit

I love the physical space and ambiance. Coffee is well priced but tastes a bit burnt for my taste, and the coffee bar staff could be friendlier

Very pretty and very big place, so the cafe is very noisy and the music remains loud. Good matcha with pistachio flavor!

The magnificent setting, normal coffee, wine and catastrophic pastries (exaggerated sugar, poor quality chocolate used) very expensive prices compared to the quality.

I love this place for coworking. There are so many areas where you could work. During lunch time it gets busy since they serve lunch (which is a plus if you re spending the day there). Best matcha . For the ones having calls, it s not the most quiet place but it works pretty well as a coworking place.

Great spot in the golden square mile for coffee or lunch. Plenty of space in a very special setting - definitely worth a visit!

Amazing croissants, amazing food and amazing coffee.

Fun modern atmosphere. Lots of variety. The Shizuka had too much cumin and tasted more like chili. But, I would love to go back with disappointed they were closed on Saturdays.

Love the food and the service .unmatched really. Not sure about the crowd.

You enjoy your food while enjoying the chef design and art. Everything is wonderful in this place. Totally recommended!!

Very good place to relax

My favorite spot for work , good food and coffee

Perfect experience. Parking difficult.

Very nice discovery

Nice place. Enjoyed the coffee

I got the new york rolls with pistachio and strawberry and they were really good.

Love their matcha, pastries, chia seed pudding, and minestrone soup. It would be great to see more plant based lunch options

Brunch is good but the portions are a little on the smaller side for the price. The pastry selection is very nice though.

This place lives up to the hype. Amazing cafe in downtown Montreal to enjoy a delicious Mediterranean brunch with friends. We had a blast last Sunday. The savory dishes are very refined. The desserts are decadent and freshly baked. Great coffee, cordial and friendly service. Location, location, location. You will want to return because you saw something really appetizing in the next table. In my next visit Ill order the Shakshuka served in a hot pan! And we saw a pink croissant that looked delicious, so its a date.

Very cool place for coffee and meals in the heart of Montreal!

Tiramisu lovers you have found your place, wow wow wow. Excellent service, super fresh salads ( it felt as if the cooks just cut it up) great pizza .

Nice place to work and eat

It is surely the most beautiful café in Montreal in one of the most existing spaces, location, decor, colors everything is chic class and very good taste. The prices are very reasonable for the category of cafe that C is. Everything is good and beautiful, cafe pastries pizza... the plates that we saw circulating seemed copious and succulent, we will surely come back to taste salads, sandwiches, dishes and desserts....the terrace on Sherbrooke Street is very nice too.

Nice place, but they forgot our order. Brunch food didn t taste good, pastries were okay. My fiancés eggs were undercooked. Disappointing as the ambience is great, but I highly suggest to only have coffee and sweets and not the food..

The freshness of the products left something to be desired. I felt more like it was an Instagram place to take photos than to enjoy good coffee and pastries.

Such a beautiful ambiance great place to have coffee and the pizza is delicious

The birthday girl at Amea Of the 31 years that she traveled the Earth, I only knew her during the last ten months, but from that moment when our eyes and our smiles met and lit up on the church pew, a great friend came into my life. Since then, thanks to our gastronomic affinities, each meeting with K. inevitably involves a new culinary adventure that I have fun documenting, parts of our friendship that I engrave on the internet by publishing them in the form of reviews of restaurants... Few are the pleasures that, in my opinion, surpass a meal alongside a person with whom we get along wonderfully, a person whose tender gaze testifies to all their affection towards us. For her birthday, I told her she could choose the destination and I gave her a colorful list ranging from Korean BBQ to tea room, but it was the Amea that made her smile. Established on the first floor of the Maison Alcan heritage building, the café is in an enclosure of unusual majesty. Once past the imposing illuminated pillars, we are struck by the beauty of Silent Flight , a work on aluminum panel by Ola Volo affixed to the wall of an anteroom at the restaurant which hosts events and presentations. Amea is not to be outdone, which has also focused on creating a very special atmosphere to sing our stomachs: romantic shelters, pretty carpets, circular lighting, fake vegetation suspended. It is a mixture of style which remains coherent and attractive which undoubtedly has to do with the influx of people, both tourists and locals, who met there. However, the best selling point undoubtedly remains its amazing menu (of which we tried the lunch version). We, I say, K., R., A. and me. Since there were four of us, I offered my friend a little birthday special: choose the four dishes you most want to try. » She therefore chose the bombolone with gravlax (ingenious combination of sweet bread and smoked salmon), the croquemademoiselle (a favorite, the creamy scrambled eggs were an absolute success), the crespelles limone ricotta (really good pancakes) and a delicious avocado and smoked salmon toast (resolutely omnipresent lately, these toasts). As a bonus, I placed some pastries on the table, classics of the place: a croissant filled with pistachios (yum), a raspberry rock (very rich and tasty, dripping with its fruity scent) and a Supreme with Oreo that I really liked even though my table companions were already too stuffed to enjoy it. At dinner, we were all seated strangely on chairs that were too low: with our backs well supported, only our heads and shoulders emerged above the table. Its not that there was a lack of more normal seating options, its more that this table was in the sun and thats where K., the queen of the day, wanted to be. Note that if you are more of the terrace type, you can enjoy the terrace in the interior courtyard or relax on a table away from the crowds near the main entrance. If youre the type to go to the bathroom a lot, youll be happy to know that weve happily prepared them for you. Finally, the service is courteous and works smoothly. So that the dishes ordered and paid for are brought to us at the counter, we take a small numbered flag that we put in the middle... K. where is the flag? She had removed it and put it aside because she didnt like it there. Well, still, you shouldnt exaggerate! Happy birthday again, K. Vegetarian options: Yes, almost the entire lunch menu is (you can easily have meatless versions of the dishes). Parking: Free on Stanley Street, paying on Sherbrooke Kid-friendliness: Yes... The kids will love it. Wheelchair accessibility: I think so...Im not sure. However, there are no automatic doors.

Super cool atmosphere, loved this hidden spot in downtown. Tumeric latte was very special if you like the taste of tumeric in cafe

Loved everything about this place . It s a beautiful building , with an attractively pleasing interior space and a lovely outdoor courtyard . Food

Average place in terms of decoration but surprise on the plate, very honest, quality ingredients, very good coffee. A rarity in this corner of the city center, for a visit to the MMFA or others, we adopt! Cute terrace at the back

Very aesthetic, very buissness professional i felt like i was being productive (i wasnt) cute place and food is good also the blue matcha is cool af

Cool spot, decent food, some items are quite overpriced but cant expect less nowadays. Barista with pink hair is quite disrespectful. Pretty sure someone new was being trained and as though it looked like this barista in question was about to help and get plates, she came empty handed and just smiled at the newbie. (Even customers knew she needed plates, it was in the context). I was given a buzzer and it was not buzzing at all. I start realizing that its been a while since ive ordered, so I check and the barista looks at me, saying that my number has been buzzing endlessly. Im pretty sure anyone wouldve felt it buzzing being held in hand directly. Sure, my fault for not realizing any sooner, but thats not a problem to me. I wouldve gotten my coffee anyways. The buzzer itself couldve had dead batteries or something but for her to say that its been buzzing forever and shrug off a laugh while keeping her head down is what loses the charm and lowers the image of the place overall.

I am a customer who comes to the café because it is close to my work, but the service is really bad, some of the employees are not welcoming, smile Ziro, I arrive at the cash register on September 5 at 10 a.m. at the café bar. waitress who looks like a brunette Asian as usual attitude. dry face, no smile or hello. in addition she makes a mistake on my order she doesnt even apologize, shes going to call the guy with curly hair who wears jewelry to give me back my change its even worse in the end I left without having my change $ the Customer service is important with a smile to customers. the customer pays to be treated well

New discovery, really nice place, spacious and super comfortable to enjoy a coffee in a trendy atmosphere.

Beautiful place!!! Great coffee! A favourite!

Cafe is pretty but it is extremely frustrating when you have a specific dietary requirement and they have no leniency. If they can t do what you need for whatever reason, it should be common courtesy to offer a substitute free of charge since the original price would include something you are unable to eat. Not even offering something to appease the situation is very unprofessional. It was disappointing for me.

Cafe in Montreal The place is big... The coffee and croissants are delicious

The Persian lady at the cash truly made my day. She was incredibly patient and professional. Around 3:00 pm, we ordered two lattes, and everything from the taste to the latte art was fantastic

Super cute cafe with a nice ambiance. The supreme croissant is not good. The pastry was soggy, and the filling bland. Expected better from the Beatrice team.

I dont come here often but every time its a very good experience

The dishes and pastries are very good! On the other hand, the prices are a little exaggerated.

Over priced for cafeteria style. I have to re think this as you charged more for Americanos now. .With Starbucks opening a new large cafe across the street, you might want to lower your prices. I understand that prices have gone up. But to charge 50 cents more for an Americano is a bit much. Most places have up their prices by 5 to 10 cents. And now you are also changing an additional 50 cents for added milk! Milk that no other coffee cafe charges. I am not talking about steam milk, milk that is poured out of the milk carton. When I questioned this, I was told that Americanos are to be drank without milk! A few months ago you never charged for milk, what changed, oh wait....Greed! So now my wife and I will no longer come daily any more. Its the principal of it all, it is not so much the increase but the greed! taking advantage of customers. $5.00 increase for two coffees for 5 days a week is a bit too much, $20 a month $240 for 1 year. We will use what we save buy making our own coffee and creating our own cafe experience at home. I keep track of my expenses and I can say no other cafe charges extra for adding regular cold milk to any coffee orders. I know of no cow milk shortage or cows going on strike.. One coffee cafe in old Montreal has not increased their cost for an Americano in the past 3 years that I have been recording. The whole coffee beans Bullet Proof brand, is one of the premium brands that I buy from the store at regular retail prices has only gone up in price by about $1.50 for one bag of whole bean 100% Arabica coffee for 340 grams. Lets look at Starbucks Americanos 10z Including milk at no extra cost is $3.85, this includes taxes and you also earn rewards for every order. And Starbucks offers double the points about 7 days in a given month. Its better value to go to Starbucks. You have out priced yourselves from the market. Your small Americanos $4.00, maybe about 3 ounces of coffee, I included the cost your charging for just a bit of milk poured from the milk carton. Starbucks medium Americanos $3.85 for 12 ounce includes milk, earn rewards and a smile AlphaBet Cafe offers a much more superior coffee. Small Americano $3.25 8oz with tax and include as much milk as you like. Value for your money is severely lacking, Amea, you need to re think what your brand value is because reading all your bad reviews and your bla responses tells me you do not understand what your lost customers are saying. We will never return. Good bye.

Its very beautiful and large in space. Its worth seeing once and nothing more. The atmosphere is cold and the customer service is minimal, bordering on condescending (which earns it the 2 stars). The coffee is very ordinary and not worth the price. I prefer to encourage small, independent neighborhood cafes. People who go there to work seem not to be welcome. It is a good place for tourists.

Amea Cafe offers an exceptional experience with its large and beautiful setting which creates a welcoming and relaxing ambiance. The fast and efficient service adds to the satisfaction, allowing customers to fully enjoy their visit. The croissants are delicious, freshly prepared and of a quality that delights the taste buds. Its the perfect place to start the day with a cup of tasty coffee and a breakfast that never disappoints. Highly recommended for those who appreciate a good atmosphere, impeccable service and delicious food in a pleasant setting.

i was recommended this place soo many times and was pretty disappointed with what i got. everything looked pretty but the taste was very average. probably wont be back.

Ok espresso, lots of seating, friendly staff.

Beautiful open area. Loved the place. Food is okay but. Wasn t a fan of the portobello burger but other salads and avocado toasts looked really good

I loved my experience. The eggplants were fabulous, and what can we say about the pistachio tartiflette!!

The only reason Im taking 2 stars off is because the ambiance (combination of decor/open space/cost) made me feel like I was in a diner straight out of The Hunger Games. The gravlax and avo mash sandwich was delicious and kept me very full. However, it was difficult to forget the current socio-economic context, the 55% increase in the use of food banks in Montreal... and let myself be drawn into the design/life style experience. But these are just my personal tastes. The employees of all genders were warm, attentive and also aesthetically beautiful (?) Everything was manicured and Instagram worthy. If thats your kind of thing, the atmosphere is successful. But hey, I come from a region. Wheelchair accessibility: I noticed the adapted toilet room same floor as the dining room, sufficient space to move from the counter to the tables. But I didnt notice if there is a ramp to enter the building, there were 3 or more steps to climb through the entrance on Sherbrooke.

Great ambience, good food

Great place downtown Montreal. Good for coffee and lunch. 5 a 7 are great too when there is a DJ.

Food and pastries were spectacular. Seating area is gorgeous and spacious. The eggplant was a highlight dish as well as the circular croissants.

Great place, very tasty desserts!

Great food and large dining room. A lot of good food options and beverages. Only downside is that you have to go order your food at the counter and pay there. If I do the work of the waiters, at least I don t have to leave a tip

I think it s worth the hype. It gets bussy but they can manage. Aslo, really big space . Great place to work and don t forget to try their different croissants.

It s a self-service cafe/restaurant but the person serving me behind the counter gave me excellent recommendations for my first time here and I highly appreciated it! It truly elevated my experience and I m so grateful! The blueberry almond croissant is amazing and hit the spot (not too sweet but excellent fresh texture) and I can t wait to try my crookie later! The coffee is good! I look forward to the opportunity to come back!

Good food and great service

Pretty expensive for what it is but it is good ! Vegetarian options: There are vegan options, but not a lot, one cookie one salad Food : 5/5 |

Very expensive but the quality and the atmosphere is very nice. A place worth to try but again expensive. Their famous croissant is 7.5$ just to give u an idea.

Cute spot with good food and great drinks! A little more on the expensive side. I really enjoyed the beef tartare and liked the egg yolk (although I wasn t a huge fan of the chips it came with). Good for catching up with friends, studying, or more.

Just ok not worth the hype. Maybe because I went later in the afternoon

The vibe is fantastic, beautiful spacious place to work, meet friends/colleagues, chill or have a nice brunch/food. Different furniture setups for various preferences. I tried cheese & mushroom toast which was great and a desert with coffee. They were tasty & great.

Nice breakfast, nice environment

So good

The prices are really over the top for what they serve. Seeing the anchovy buratta crostini, we burst out laughing. Be careful, the dish does not match the photo! Plus, you eat piled on top of each other. Really to avoid. My dish, a sort of fried mushroom burger, was downright tasteless. Its a scam that seems to be based on the ignorance of its customers. The chia seed dessert was also tasteless. Vegetarian options: They are few in number and not very tasty.

Terrible customer service and limited options during the week.

Love this casual resto. Good food. A restaurant like no other... must be seen & experienced.

Comfortable

This is a beautiful ambiance with different pastries and brunch options. However, there is no services after receiving foods and if you need an extra plate, utensils, bread or any other side requests you have to turn back to customers line and wait long to talk with cashier. We asked an extra piece of bread and they charged 7$! Unreasonable price for a bread and inconvenient customer service in a sense that needs to back to the line just for such a small request! In the matter of food quality, we ordered Shakshuka and supreme croissant. The Shakshuka was delicious but the breads were super stiff and the croissant taste was average. There is still a way to improvement.

A truly unique experience Much enjoyed the food, excellent service.. World class restaurant so close by.. Vegetarian options: Several options available..all delicious

Dont take people for fools, the plate called shakshuka in the menu you created with fancy words was disgusting, it is expensive and inedible, three of us bought the same plate and none of us ate it, two eggs floating in tomato paste, even the people at the next table did not eat it, this restaurant does not know how to serve breakfast plates, I can recommend it just try patisserie products

Food and pastries were spectacular. Seating area is gorgeous and spacious. Only issue was that the music was quite loud. The eggplant was a highlight dish as well as the circular croissants.

I went for brunch and i got very disappointed. We got new York rolls croissant and were looking underproof. I know because the dough was chewy and the cannoli was soft. Means is old. Looks like the do recycling on Sundays Food

Nice for a tea time or morning coffee Too busy and noisy at lunch time We liked the NY rolls, with a nice London fog ! A lot of choice for savory or sweet food Plenty of seats as well

Fresh and health, and no burden for your stomach. Recommend to take the sandwich porchetta and smoke cacciocavallo, full mouth of the meat,it is delicious!

best croissant ever Vegetarian options: vegan Dietary restrictions: gluten free

They have one of the best avocado on toast that I have ever tried (10/10). Cappuccino was good. Spacious area with multiple seatings, soft ambient lighting which is calming and great for working. Food : 5/5

It is a stylish and comfortable café with delicious desserts.

Classy interior and lots of food options. My friend and I got avocado toast with lox and an iced latte for brunch and they were delicious! Heads-up though that it can get packed towards lunch time and might be waiting for a while for your food.

The best croissants, coffees, pizzas and eclairs.. basically everything i tried i loved

Nice place and expensive pastries.

A real delight! Very nice place, pleasant, spacious, comfortable and bright. Absolutely delicious dishes! Impeccable service. Special mention for the ultra friendly and professional barista! I agree 100%

Great service with great food and great ambiance! The perfect trifecta big thanks to the staff

Counter where you place your order. Nice, slightly hidden place to eat healthily and work or meet friends

best place to spend the day studying! great ambiance, food and coffee

very nice place to go with friends. The food was delicious and fresh. The atmosphere and decoration is very aesthetic. But unfortunately the pistachio croissants were out of stock. I would have liked to eat it

Excellent atmosphere and food.

Pleasantly surprised me and my girlfriend, by Améa café, the service, the atmosphere, the wide choice of table, a beautiful view of Sherbrooke Street, their pastries are very good, their pizzas and lots of things

What a disappointment, 10$ for this, we bought two and brought them home for dessert. Both were mushy, not flaky with very bland flavors. Do not get conned into this overpriced bakery. Won t return. Worst 20$ in a longggg time.

Beautiful place, and that crossaint was delicious.

Best brunch in the city.

Do not believe the hype . This is a food court, the pizza is weak at best the crust is commercial plastic and the tomato sauce is inexistant. The creme filled / dipped croissant is dry and for early birds only. The service is young energetic and friendly wich is the only good side of this whole ordeal , again the atmosphere ....is a work cafeteria. Parking: Parking is on sherbrooke so get ready to search for awhile, you also have the side streets that might yield better results .... might

Everything is visually pleasant! Food, desserts, drinks, lights, decorations, space, interior design, etc. However, overall its a bit overpriced, and the visual effect outweighs the taste.

AMAZING! I wanted one of everything. Croissants and pastries and coffees were all perfection!

I love this place, the food imazing.

What a place. What a service. I highly recommend!!! Food : 5/5

Came for the croissant and got a croissant. The location is great and the concept is nice. There was a line but went fast. The coffee was good. We were a bit disappointed by the amount of filing.

Delicious food and great service! Highly recommend

Meh. They have vegan marked on the menu but nothing Gluten Free. Kind of irritating. Basically just a salad if you need GF. Seems like a popular local spot but, They could def improve on things. I wouldn t come back

The food and the place are instagramable. The ambiance is classy and the food is a bit expensive. The mochaccino is rich and has the right amount of sweetness, coffee, and chocolate. We ordered Patate E Pancetta (5 for me), Croissant Supreme (3.5 , Cannoli (4 ), and Formaggiosa (4 ).

my fav place to study in mtl! great large space, lots of people on their computers, amazing coffee, a great atmosphere!

Great atmosphere.

One of my favorite places to work on the PC. Both the coffee and the toasts are very good.

Its one of the best brunch places in Montreal

It s good, nice atmosphere and the place is beautiful, will come again

Although the address is on Sherbrooke Street, the entrance was via Stanley Street during my visit. The place was full on a Wednesday lunchtime and wasnt slow. I still managed to find a table. The fattouch-inspired salad was good. A little vinegary but you could feel the attention to detail in the cutting of the many vegetables that made it up. The pistachio tartlet was fabulous (and the word is weak). I recommend for a quick lunch downtown.

Horrible coffee Food was over the top. No subtlety here Food

Found out about this place on tictoc, walking up to the building, youd never think that there was all this amazingness going on in there. Just beautiful!! The bathroom, brilliant. The atmosphere, tranquille. Sorry, but my pizza crust was so hard, its just so the servers could be made aware. Am I going back? most definitely..

Just to be clear, the food quality is fine. The main issue here is value. We ordered 2 coffees and 2 plates of avocado toast (1 with salmon 18$ and one without 13$) for just under 50$, which is also fine. However, both plates came with only ONE SMALL toast and nothing else. The vast majority of Montreal places will have TWO toasts per order. As I stated, the food quality is fine, but the value for your money is severely lacking.

Bistro with okay sandwiches, nothing more. It looks so great on Google, I couldnt wait to visit. As a result, I got a cold so-so sandwich for the price of a main meal in a fancy restaurant. The decor is beautiful, and the service is friendly. Food is totally not worth it, but I might come back for a cup of coffee.

Lemon tart was delicious but it was the yellowest lettuce I was ever served at a restaurant. The mini romaine in the Caesar should be replaced with a larger leaf one which for $17, will be more appetizing.

Everything was so good, the places were very clean and the manager was super friendly and caring in informing us correctly about the products. I recommend this place

Super nice and helpful manager

Very disappointed, I took the scrambled eggs with truffle, the quantity was very disappointing, the quality was not there especially for a meal for $23 plus you have to get up to order

A very nice place to draw, work or just have a good time. The place is magnificent, the drinks and food are delicious. Note for workers, good to know, PCs and tablets must be closed from 12:30 p.m. to 2:30 p.m., even if you are consuming or eating. I really recommend this place

This used to be my favourite spot to study but today there was a lady at the front door saying that no computers are allowed on the weekend. I used to study there all of the time on the weekends and for this to be how they treat people coming with computers to use as a study space is a joke.

Great food, good staff, the coffee sucks tho. Hope they see it and fix it. Both expresso and late were awful. But the food. Perfect!

Vegetarian options: Delicious shakshuka Food

Food good but service zero

Honestly, their New York rolls are super good, their toasts too, beautiful place, it was a treat

Beautiful spot, very crowded. The line outside goes by pretty quickly. You have to order your food and the counter and they bring it to your table. A little pricey but quality and quantity of plates explains it. The coffees were great and the pastries delicious.

Horrible experience at Amea today. I went in at 1 pm and left at 1:45 pm. The ordering process was lacking and odd. The place was packed, and the line to order was the same regardless of takeout or seat. I ordered their blueberry pancakes and margarita pizza. Pancakes were dense and flavorless without the overly sweet toppings. Margarita pizza was COLD. The service was unbelievable--none at all. The cashier told me my pizza was done in about 7 minutes and they were waiting to pack my pancakes. It was packed shortly after, and they waited 8-10 minutes before handing me my food. My hotel was nearby, so it was a quick walk. When I opened my food, it was cold and unappetizing. I called the cafe, but there was no response. I would not recommend it at all. The service and food were mediocre. Youre better off going elsewhere. Their supreme was soggy. You might as well make the trip to NYC for $10. Ridiculous. My total cost was $53 including tax for my items. A RIP OFF if you ask me.

Food doesn t taste as good as they look at the pictures. Terrible portions for the breakfast plates and for the price. What is more Terrible is the service they call themselves up scale restaurants. Everything is self serve! They give u buzzer when the food is ready you have to go pick up your coffee and pastries. They don t even bring you water at your table. I have never seen such up scale restaurants anywhere. Ambience is somewhat similar to Pigeon Cafe. The washroom is unisex!!!!which is crazy!!!!! The restaurant is dog friendly but not kid friendly. They had unnecessary stuffs going on to make it look fancy with ZERO service! But they don t forget to suggest for 20% tips at payment! Don t recommend

Café art deco moderne, extraordinairement spacieux, aéré, parfait pour trouver linspiration et la créativité si vous êtes entrepreneur/digital nomad.Tres bon latte. Délicieuses pizzas pour le déjeuner. Idéalement situé sur la rue Sherbrooke à proximité du Sofitel Golden Mile et du Musée des Beaux Arts. Je recommande vivement cet endroit !

Stumbled upon this hidden café gem in downtown Montreal, and wow, it s a game-changer for business meetings! This place is not your average café it s spacious, flooded with natural light, and has an unbeatable vibe that just fuels your productivity and creativity. Its perfect for escaping the office or those repetitive video calls. They serve up some delicious lunch options too, but here s a pro tip: schedule your meetings before noon. It s quieter then, and you ll easily snag the best spot before the lunch rush kicks in. Trust me, after a productive morning meeting in this energetic atmosphere, youll be ready to dive into their lunch menu. Definitely my new go-to for business meet-ups in Montreal. Its like this café was made for brainstorming and deal-making, all while sipping on great coffee and enjoying the bright, welcoming space. Don t just take my word for it, experience it for yourself!

Indeed one of the worst experiences I had at any cafe. It didn t even get to the point where I could ve eaten anything to have an opinion about it, because I wasn t properly seated. The cafe is certainly a very popular place so it gets very busy, but instead of staff helping you find a table and assigning you a table, which is the CIVIL way of doing it when you have a busy cafe, you have to find a table by yourself!!! A random woman started arguing with me as I was sitting at the table I found, claimed to see (???) the table earlier than me, and made me leave. I didn t think it was proper to make a scene, since this is not the kind of a person I am, so I left without saying anything. The place seemed cute but who cares when you literally have to fight over a table???? From what I heard civil people make a line up but then this cafe? I dont think so.

Sunday I tried brunch! What a disappointment! The Café was full and we chose a more romantic place for a romantic outing. The waiter asked us to leave because is booked! The table was not fully reserved, another couple occupied the table afterwards without any problem. Very bad reception! The food was very basic and super expensive with the exception of the supreme croissants! Vegetarian options: Salad

Delicious food! I ll definitely go again to try more things despite it was full, we got a table quick. The only down side is the system they have to order food and beverages. Not very efficient or comfortable Food

Ordinary. Too expensive for what it is.

The food is perfect but the waiter wasn t respectful to us

Nice interior. The food is ok and quite pricy. They took a while to get me my order Food

The atmosphere is incredible, I went there to take breakfast, and it was incredible too sweet for me but highly recommended.

The location is a bit strange, its inside an office building I think? But the space is beautiful. My croque mademoiselle was nice and the sweet viral standing croissant was good too, but neither blew me away. It was pricey. It is a bit cafeteria style. They have someone seating tables (at least on weekends) but you go up to the cash register to order.

Such an elevated, elegant space with absolutely fantastic customer service! The delicious coffee and pastries were the cherry on top.

Too expensive for what there is to choose from. My pastry was a little too dry.

Really unimpressed! Ordered a coffee and a pastry and sat down to do some work. The second I had finished the pastry and they had cleared the plate the manager approached me and asked me to move as the tables were only for eating customers. I hadnt even finished my coffee yet! Not only that but I was planning on getting some lunch after I did a bit of work. Not how you should be treating paying customers - clearly only care about getting people in and out the door as quickly as possible. Very rude!

The restaurant manager is not friendly. And makes you want to leave rather than stay. I have been a regular at the café since it opened and I come 2/3 times a week. And his attitude no longer makes you want to come.

The place is very nice and the foods are good. I had the kale salad and I really recommended it. I am very disappointed about the service; I order a mocktail / cocktail without alcohol (since I am allergic to alcohol). After few sips, I start to not feeling well, became very red and itchy. I went to check with the person at the order to make sure what I order does not have alcohol. She told me is not 100% alcohol free, there is always like 0.5%. I went to ask the bartender about my drink, he told me is make with 2oz of 40% of gin. I told them that I am allergic to alcohol; the manager came to apologize and check on me. In addition, he offered to refunded my bill since is their mistake (I placed the order with the manager and make sure is alcohol free) but he never refunded me. I think they will need to be more careful about the order and the allergic. But beside my reaction, the food and the place are really nice

Very good food, quite pricey but big portions

Very nice spot for lunch The Desserts are Divine Food

Neat spot owned by Guy Laliberté (owner of Circe de Soleil). Cool vibe and lots of places to sit and chat. Food : 5/5

So beautiful and artistic, recommended!

Love the pastries! Such a cute spot to meet up with friends and lovely service!

Perfect place for a downtown meeting or a quick lunch. Food is great and the service also.

Very nice discovery! The service, food and atmosphere are top notch. It is an excellent address in the city center. I recommend +++

I strongly advise against coming to Amea Café if you are looking for a quiet place to chat or work on your computer. Despite spending over $50, our experience was far from pleasant. As soon as our plates were empty, the staff practically kicked us out. Its disappointing to see such a lack of hospitality, especially after wanting to support a local coffee shop. The Amea Café does not seem to appreciate the visit of its customers and shows no appreciation for their support. I highly recommend looking for another place that is more welcoming and respectful of its customers.

*WARNING SCAM* This cafe is not a cafe, they will ask you to leave despite your drinks. The prices are way too expensive, my $11 slice of pizza was burnt. The service is derisory. The noise is cacophonous, queues and unsmiling employees. We came with our computers and specified that we had them, plot twist we were kicked out in less than 1 hour and $40 purchase.

Pleasant setting, appetizing dishes, fair prices but honestly the concept needs to be revisited, especially on weekends. Too many people, excessive waiting time and inefficient organization in the kitchen. There are three lines to do: a first to enter the restaurant and have a table, a second standing to order your dish and a third still standing to order your drinks. The dishes are delivered to the table. Allow 45 minutes in total if you are lucky and if you understand the concept.
