Théâtre Sainte-Catherine in Montreal

Very good sandwich and drink for the comedy show.

I only went there in the morning to have a good coffee. And the coffee, well, its really good. Very strong and good Crema. In the summer there is a beautiful little terrace and every time I go there, the service is always very fast and courteous. I also like hearing the repetitions while waiting for my coffee! I will definitely be going to see a show or play soon. #: cafe, bistro, theater, broadcast room, culture, pastries, Montreal, UQÀM

Very cute venue!

Friday night of improv, excellent evening! Nice clean place, they serve alcohol, the service is fast and attentive.

Very good service. Nice place.

Creative bar, excellent entertainment venue! The shows are incredible!

A very beautiful place to discover new musical talents and in many other ways, such as poetry

Nice venue for small intimate shows

Improv Mondays are really great. We have fun with the troupe, its varied and we can have good cocktails or beers while watching the show.

Intimate room. Helpful and dedicated staff at the establishment. Very good show - Together we are 108 years old.

Mythical theater of Montreal. Improv Mondays is really a great show

Tiny but really fun

The theater is really cool, the programming is great!

A very pleasant place to work close to UQAM. I highly recommend for peace and quiet.

Very cool improv show at the Sainte Catherine theater! I recommend!

Good service but their coffee and espresso are not great.

Always a great pleasure to attend Improv Mondays with such an exceptional team!

It looks like a nice and funny place but please, PLEASE make a better coffee

I made an exhibition in collaboration with the no1 backpack

Love this place

Excellent show venue! I highly recommend the 2.0 improv shows, they are incredible!!!!

Amazing place, great service and very clean.

Intimate theater with character.

3rd time Ive come and each time its guaranteed to be a laugh.

I went there for the Andy St Louis Show, very beautiful theater

SKETCHFEST shows here are one of my favorite parts of Montreal easily. I wish it was more than once a year! Id go once a month easily

good good

An incredible cafe and venue. Great service and value.

Great place, intimate yet professional. Great staff. Smells bon.

I go for Sunday night improv and its always a great time :)

Really wonderful theatre! Knowledgeable teachers, longest running improv show in town, warm environment, tasty drinks and food! You can tell a lot of care goes into this place. One of a kind! Murderdogz 4ever

I came here to do some work and the employees here are so nice !! they got live shows here too, which I need to check out one day - hidden gem really

5 stars isn t enough. Best non AI shows around.

Great place to try improv for the first time, meet fun, nice people and have a great night out. A diamond in the rough!

Terrible service this afternoon! Three waitresses were probably whispering to each other behind the backs of certain customers instead of busying themselves with work, thinking they were being subtle. I hope that the evening bar portion is more friendly and respectful.

Update: I do not agree with your answer saying that it is a misunderstanding they were not rectifying the order but rather talking behind our backs (gossip) while looking at us with a look of judgment. I am really disappointed and therefore I find it ridiculous that you do not take responsibility for the facts that really happened. You are instead trying to turn the situation in your favor which is very disappointing on your part. I am a regular customer of this cafe and until today I have always had positive experiences. However, the recent episode has deeply disappointed me and calls into question the quality of customer service. Today I decided to go to dinner at this cafe that I frequent at least one to three times a week to buy my morning coffee. Not only do I go there regularly, but I have also recommended this place to many friends, encouraging them to choose this café rather than the neighboring Van Houtte. My commitment to this establishment was therefore relatively strong before this experience. However, on my last visit, I opted to have a sandwich and salad for my lunch. My friend, who accompanied me, has dietary restrictions and so brought her own meal to eat there before purchasing a coffee and a pastry. This is where things took an unpleasant turn. The three employees present seemed to stare at us throughout this situation. We heard them whispering behind our backs. Rather than directly informing us about the policy, they continued to mutter and give judgmental looks. Disappointed by this attitude, I decided to approach them to understand if there was a problem. The response I received shocked me. The employees said that we were not allowed to consume our own food inside the cafe. I tried to explain that my friend was planning to buy something after her meal, but one of the employees simply replied nonchalantly: Dont stop me. What bothers me the most is that the employees did not have the courage to come and inform us directly of this policy. Instead, they preferred to whisper behind our backs, creating an awkward atmosphere while I ate my meal purchased there. As a regular customer, I expected mutual respect and impeccable customer service, which unfortunately was not the case this time. Really disappointed!

Love the sketch comedy at this place! Soup is good too!

Fiery atmosphere, good homemade meals

I need a matcha cookie in my blood

The best people, intimate shows, delicious food served with a smile.

This is good for me

Nice theatre, good improv scene

A welcoming and thoughtful community of dedicated improv theatre artists

filter coffee tastes like tomato juice

Nice place but I didnt see Catherines breasts hahahahaHAHAHAHAHAAHAAAAAAAAA.

Very nice place to eat/drink a little something while watching impro !

A nice little place to see comedy shows. Its not big, but I dont know how to say it, it seems like its just enough. You can buy food and drinks (sandwiches). Oshlag beer without alcohol is good. The bar staff were cool and relaxed both times I was there. Tickets are sold in even numbers (2,4,6...). The chairs are comfortable, they have no armrest and are not screwed into the floor. A warm space.

The French improv evening on Monday is just great!! Theres a great atmosphere, we spend an evening laughing in a caring environment <3 good luck going to Europe this summer, well see you in Paris! (P.S. the bar service is great and the veggie sandwiches are super good!)

Good place, nice atmosphere.

Improv workshops in English on Sundays. Amazing! And in French on Mondays. So cool. Good food, good coffee and the shows are sick

First visit and I felt at home there! The employees are warm and kind, the room is intimate and clean and their grilled cheese is delicious! I cant wait to come back!

The all-night improv was perfect, a great evening spent at this place

Fun improv shows on Sunday nights!

Superb Monday Impro evening that we had, we will come back!

Improvisation Monday, to do

Beautiful, friendly place! Intimate room to see shows!

non rubbish place with very much non garbage people

Very good value for money. The soups and sandwiches are excellent. The place is nice and well located.

Simply awesome

Amazing dance floor with super nice staff!!

Improv Mondays! This is what brought us to the Théâtre Sainte-Catherine, what made us return there, return there again and what will bring us back again! A simply great experience! We also recommend the free courses to get started with improvisation: the organizers are friendly and knowledgeable.

Magnificent café theater in Montreal! The best!

Small place with interesting food, good coffee and a small intimate venue for shows

Beautiful little performance hall, cozy and intimate.

Micro stage but so charming with small cafe-bar in front. Seen there artists in a more intimate way (humor, improv, music) impeccable and memorable... Before it was in larger, bigger venues...

Louis Jose Houde show...beautiful small room but too hot because of the brick blackberry but it was adorable as a place very good service the girls offer excellent customer service...

Beautiful small, friendly and intimate room, welcoming staff

Improv Mondays... Its crazy and a magnum of good humor. From 8 p.m. reservation recommended because its often full (contribution $13C)

Beautiful little room!

Cute cafe, great location (five stars) but I won t take another improv course here, there s too much post-scene analysis (I.e a lot of talking versus actual scene work) and politically-correct to the point of being stifling. The drop in sessions in the mile end however, are a great time for those looking to have fun with a relaxed group.

Very good, accompanied by my daughter Stéphanie we went to see Louis T

Improv Mondays, lets talk about it... Bars of laughter from start to finish, with top actors, simply an excellent evening thats worth it! Go for it!!

Lendroit propose une programmation théâtrale varié tout au long de la semaine. Cependant lexpérience est un peu gâché par une odeur persistante de grillé, et de graisse qui embaume toute la salle lors des spectacles, cela est malheuresement préjudiciable aux personnes présentes dans la salle qui ne souhaite pas consommer. Une meilleure aération serait à envisager ; )

Great, you will have a great evening (Monday). I will go back without hesitation!

Very good service from Adama. Thank you so much!

I loved the atmosphere!

Amateur theater venue with bar service and handmade cakes. Informal and welcoming atmosphere

One of my favourite places in the world. A thriving community of artists.

I was here for JFL and the space is great for a comedy show - cozy, mood lighting, great bar options. Good venue

Mark Forwards show was magical

Ok fair size place, quiet, kind or dark though.

Great cafe! And the free improv workshop never disappoints. Lots of care taken to coach participants and I was surprised that it s a super safe space, ie there are boundaries around touch, name-calling, etc during the free classes which I love.

Warm place for a fun evening, laughter guaranteed on Limpro Mondays

A varied and French-speaking program. And the improv evenings are memorable.

Smokus Pokus... Alot of fun and cheap drinks!

8th Wonder of the World

Super nice atmosphere and very friendly employees. Perfect for drinking and watching a good show.

Incredibly funny show by Arthur Simeon. We had a great time

I love this place! Best improv theater group so fun! You meet so many new amazing fun people! Hats off to Alain!!! Come more often!!:) PLUS IT has a cafe!

Beautiful, intimate little place. A few small bites to snack on. There are a few drinking options. They have 1 choice of non-alcoholic beer.

Awesome. What a good time had. A real fresh theater. Go for it

I went to see Improv Mondays several times and each time I had a great time. We really feel like were dealing with a big family given the atmosphere there. I have also done improv workshops several times. Each time I had a different teacher and each time I found the course very interesting and enriching. If you want to discover improv I can only recommend it.

I had a good time there during the improv evening.....

Lund improv, theater, Alain, top

Well, such a cute place, and the drinks are really reasonably priced.

Always have a great time there. Especially for the improv nights!

We stopped for a quick coffee without being able to enjoy the theater side of the place. Friendly service, atmosphere just as good

The staff is super cool. They even offer FREE workshops on Sundays and Mondays, then the show around 7:30-8 p.m.

The place needs some renovations and up keep, very grungy look and I was there at night while lights were off, i can only imagine at daylight. But if its something people like, then it is your place. But other then that, its a good place for small gigs, live bands, parties etc..

Cozy place and cool staff.

Really a nice performance hall with a warm atmosphere. The choice of drinks is varied and interesting and the staff is great. Favorite for improv shows

Nice little place. Friendly staff.

What can I say? I love this place! The shows are so fun and they have a free workshop for Improv in both French and English. The staff are so welcoming and friendly. The food is simply delicious. You MUST try the sandwiches here, they are great!

Amazing staff, best muffins around & their sandwiches are insane. You are the perfect snack during my uni breaks.

Great venue, improv was really funny!

We just passed by and walked in to have a cup of earl grey tea, a piece of biscuit, and a piece of date square. The staff is very nice and friendly, it was our first time visited this small cozy shop, we felt warm and welcomed. Food and tea are all good, and there was an improv just going on inside, what a surprise We will come back again!

Their espresso was super watered down, didnt even come out black at all. It gets pretty cold in there.

The improv night on Monday was really fun. It was a great outing with friends.

Great theater, intimate atmosphere. You can eat and drink there. I 1000% recommend Improv Mondays. Diverse and varied subjects, current or not but which always make you laugh out loud

Excellent show my green bananas!! Very entertaining!! Very nice little place

Superb intimate room. Really changes the mood of a show. We were just a little stuck in the aisles and it was particularly hot, but a water fountain with glasses was offered to everyone.

Very good comedy shows, I recommend

Fiery atmosphere and really friendly staff

Very good place

Théâtre Saint-Catherine Café-Bar is easy, calm, and relaxing. Even with the Rogers network shutting down most of the Village today, we were able to put our feet up and have an iced latté. The barmaid was capable and friendly.

Excellent venue. Small and intimate. Lots of fun!!!! Wish they had better drink selection Would definitely return

Always excellent, both on site and to take away! The café latte is a delight, the matcha latte too, and what can we say about the pastries... Yummy yummy, especially the choco-matcha muffin, perfect for lovers like me Unique decor that really reminds you of a theater like the Salle Émile-Legault. I havent been to one of their standup nights yet but Im sure its fun!

Saw Randy Felt face here very good set theatre its self was very organized line went smoothly make sure to wait on the deck out side then they will let you in first

July 2022. Jay Pharoah. What a great entertainer!!

A nice cozy venue! We were up close and personal with the stage. The drinks were good and reasonably priced.

The best improv shows in Montreal! Thank you for making us laugh

Ambiance is trivial of the event happening.

Google maps! I am so thankful I found this place, I wasn t sure if tickets were going to be available but I am so thankful they were. It was an awesome time, good drinks, good prices, busted guts and knees well-slapped. I will be returning if I am ever in the area.

Welcoming and inviting, love it there!

great show, super fun vibe.

A very nice place!!!! J adore

Nice welcome and the latte is just the way I like it.

Just stopped in for a morning coffee, and now I want to come here every day. The barista wasnt bothered by my speaking English, and the service was wonderful and kind. The seats are comfy, the wifi is fast, and the lattes are delicious. Plus Im in love with the atmosphere of having coffee in a quiet theatre!

An extraordinary theater, great improv troupes in French and English, always excellent shows, a very nice little bar where you can eat and what makes the charm of this theater is its big family feel. after 5 minutes you will feel at home! Also ! improv workshops...FREE! amazing :)

LA MAISON. On y va pour faire de limpro gratuitement, regarder les super shows (coup de coeur pour Les lundis ) et puis bien manger des bonnes salades, sandwichs et cookies, fait maison, à un prix tout doux surtout dans le quartier, et encore plus apprécié après une dure journée de travail quand tu dois aller en cours à lUQAM juste après.

Nice coffee

asked for a coffee with milk but they made something fancy like a latte. tasted great!!

Excellent evening ! Lots of fun!

I love hanging out there and working weekdays, their soup is always good

Super cute venue! Well received and awesome show

The show was amazing! Its been a time that I didnt laught that much! Big Thank you for all the impro comedians and Bravo! :)

I dont know how many years theyve been there. But the place is still so friendly.

We loved Bye Parula!

Very good for a small crowd, very intimate.

Small, welcoming, comfortable, best place to work quietly and eat. Lots of vegan options!

Super intimate for a small event as a special place..!!

Great place, very warm, pleasant with a small snack bar... And a great welcoming and competent team... I recommend this place which has very interesting evenings and projects

Very cool little room

Quaint little neighborhood theater with live shows and comedy nights. Good food, great coffee, friendly and courteous service
