café léo

I had a nice experience at Café Léo in downtown Montreal. The place is quite big and the vibe is really pleasant. There are many tables, which makes it great whether you just want to enjoy a coffee or sit down to work. They also have larger tables if you want to work with friends or in a group. I ordered a latte with coconut milk and it was good. I also tried the cheese croissant, which was tasty and nicely crispy on the outside, with good cheese inside. It was a little pricey for a croissant, but that’s understandable for a downtown location. The staff were friendly, and I also noticed they sell a few items like tote bags and T-shirts. Overall, I recommend this place.

Wow, the coffee here is delicious! It was so good to have this spot right next to our hotel. The staff were super friendly and took the time to explain the different types of espresso they offer. I got the overnight oats, which were good. The only downside is that their to-go packaging, especially for iced drinks, could be better. Overall, it’s a really cool spot to grab coffee and get some work done.

The staff is very friendly. She tried to make the art on the cup of milk🥛just with some cocoa powder. Delicious and fresh croissants 🥐

Stopped at Café Léo for breakfast. Lovely to have gluten free options. Everything was yummy. In a way it felt like I was having breakfast at home only surrounded by art and lively discussion.

I’ve tried both the espresso and the matcha here, and they’re truly great. I love the rotating exhibitions of local artists on the walls, it gives the space a unique and creative vibe. The energy is always positive, thanks to the friendly and welcoming staff. It’s also a great spot if you’re looking for a relaxed place to work or enjoy a coffee surrounded by art.

Huge space and few options for glute free diet! I liked the vibe and the idea/ concept of coffee and clothes

Overall, it is a nice place to sit down and do work. I came because I saw they had gluten free options. But once I looked where the pastries where located, the gluten free ones were right next to the non gluten free ones. Why bother even putting them at all if their gonna be contaminated with the non gluten free ones. I ended up trying the brownie since it was far away from the other ones. It was good but was definitely contaminated. I don't recommend celiacs going here at all. Don't put gluten free options if your not gonna be careful with how it's made or where it's place. Nice service and ambience.

cutest cafe with great coffee! the overnight oats were delicious

As like many other reviewers, this adorable cafe was next door to my hotel. I was craving a latte and croissant and got the most creamy, beautiful latte (with swan latte art) and a fresh, buttery croissant. I found the cafe a bit pricier than others I visited while in Montreal, but the size of the croissant and latte certainly made up for that. The place has a great vibe, is bright, and offers some local goods and crafts. I could tell many of the customers were likely students from the university across the street. I would definitely come here again if I am in the area.

This coffee shop was right next to our hotel. So we tried it and I got the regular iced vanilla latte and it was so good! Ask for half sweetened or it's way too sweet! And the staff was so nice. Especially to my 4 year old! We loved getting our morning coffee here.

We stayed at the Marriott right next door to this cafe, and we went daily! They were very helpful to us in English, bathrooms were clean, vibes were good, and we sat and enjoyed coffee every morning before adventuring out. And as an American, it was so nice to have such a great ICED latte every morning!

Top tier breakfast as someone who's bigger on the drip coffee as well, they did it justice!

We were staying at the Fairfield next door, so I thought I'd grab a latte before leaving Montréal. The interior of this café immediately caught my eye - it's super spacious with pops of yellow / orange. There are two floors, and seems extremely conducive to collaboration. I ordered a hazelnut latté - I find that flavouring is not always the most apparent at some cafes, but this drink definitely don't skimp on the syrup. It was a little over $6 for a regular size. Would love to come back here if I was ever in town for a bit longer and in need of a work space!

I got a lavender latte that was somehow unbelievably smooth and creamy. I don't know how or why it was so good, but I absolutely have to go back and try to find out. I also got a kouign amann pastry, and it was heavenly. I don't know where they get it from (since they obviously don't have the patisserie setup to make those in-house) but it was amazing and not at all the usual lower quality type of viennoiserie served at coffee shops.

My friends and I stopped into Café Léo for our first cup of coffee in Montreal. The baristas were both friendly and helpful, giving solid recommendations for what to drink. My espresso was really good and everyone else was satisfied with their coffee. I would like to try more of their offerings when I'm back in town.
