Café Névé

Best caffè mocha in town. So velvety ! Plenty of space and the natural light is amazing.

Nice cafe for working. There are some renovations coming soon as well. I came for the famous cookie. They had caramel white chocolate, chocolate chip, and Reeses peanut butter chocolate cookie. I ordered the chocolate chip and it was big, tasty, and chewy. For CAD$4.60. The manager was super friendly as well.

Looking for a café to grab my afternoon caffeine fix, stumbled upon this neighborhood spot. All the tables were taken by students preparing for their finals, which brought back fond memories of my own student days.

Nice and quiet on a Monday during the day. Music playing that isn’t too loud and a nice atmosphere.

Amazing study spot with literally the BEST cookies. Honestly... the cookie blew me away. The white chocolate nut cookie is the best, IMO (but very very sweet). Really good coffee and super chill and friendly vibe. The place always smells delicious. Sandwiches are really good but a littlleeee pricey

What a bad experience this morning at Neve. I came in as my favorite cafe nearby had a power break, in hopes that Névé still had power. As I come in, I notice the lights and A/C are off, but the cash seems to be working. I ask about the lights and A/C and I just get a very dry reply that "it's normal". I decide to order and sit to work, but I quickly realize that all the power outlets are not working. I go to tell the barista, and she tells me that they should be working, but she didn't test them. I inform her that there is a power break on the street and she says "yes I know, but should be fine". I tell her I'll have to leave because I can't charge my devices. She simply brings a paper cup to my table, and let me leave with my muffin in my hand and my matcha in the paper cup that I had to put in myself. What lack of maturity and transparency. All the other shops of the streets had put up signs in the window informing clients that they was a power break. If your shop cannot provide the services it usually provides, it's your responsibility to inform your clients (before they buy something!). Sadly, Névé only had enough power to get 11$ out of me for a matcha and a muffin! The staff didn't seem to care at all about me, as they were chatting together as if nothing was wrong, while the whole cafe is in the darkness with super hot temperature. Not ok!

Really enjoy the croissant grilled cheese, the cookie and the latte.

Lovely cafe in Mont Royal. Service was quick and friendly. Coffee was good (I tried their seasonal After 8 latte — chocolate and mint — and it was delicious!) Really nice vibe for a coffee or doing some work. Ample outlets, music is great. I didn’t try their food or baked goods, but both looked great. Would definitely come back next time I’m in Montreal.

I've been coming to cafe neve for a while now and honestly it's always a treat myself day when I walk in. The baristas are super friendly and are willing to talk to you to help you figure out what you want. I usually end up getting a cold brew and cookie in the summer and swap out the cold brew for a cortado once it's cold. But the cookies is always non negotiable and with 3 of the best flavours anywhere around you'll definitely feel the same way. On this particular day I won't with the salted caramel which had macadamias and white chocolate which honestly I'm still dreaming about right now.

My stepson and I came in for a quick break. He got a coffee and I got a pastry. The coffee was not fresh nor good.... My pastry was good but I've had better. It was a convenient place right in the middle of the Plateau, but next time I would stop somewhere else for a quick break.

The place is, surprisingly, very spacious. It's very chill in its vibes and looks like an actual place were you could get a lot of work done. It's a shame they close so early. I had a matcha latte. I don't know if it's because I haven't had matcha in a while but it was great, the matcha and oat milk had a great balance.

Absolutely love this place! My favourite coffee shop to chill out at when in the Plateau. Great relaxed atmosphere with plenty of seating, great for a catch-up or some time to yourself. I always order a Cold Mocha (not on the menu but they can customize) and it is probably one of the best I have ever had. The coffee is super fresh (beans also sold in store) and they serve it in a super cute mason jar! Of course, one cannot visit Neve without sampling their famous giant chocolate chip cookies! Being known as the 'cookie monster' in my family, I can confirm that these cookies truly are a 10/10. They are made fresh daily in store and to utter perfection: crisp on the outside whilst remaining soft and ooey-gooey on the inside - divine! Service was great, prices are decent and located in a lovely friendly neighbourhood.

I grabbed a cappuccino on the go. It was decent, and the service was quick and friendly. The decor of the cafe is simple and clean. A good café, not the best in Montreal but satisfying overall.

Terrific service, cookies, and cold brew. This became our go-to spot for coffee while in Montreal. The gals behind the counter at each location were always super sweet and the cold brew really hit the spot. The cookies are something else. Crispy on the outside, chewy on the inside, and mass amounts of every kind of chocolate under the sun. I'm sitting here on the couch wondering if I should go back and buy a couple to bring on the plane for our schlep home tomorrow morning. Need coffee and a cookie? Look no further. You won't find better.

Fantastic almond milk latte! Warm, rich and creamy. One of my favorites of my visit to Montreal.

Cozy café and excellent coffee! They serve a perfect cup of coffee, it's creamy and has a bold flavor. This location has a number of tables to sit with friends or do some work. They had fresh croissants and muffins (not sure if they are made in site) and they also serve brunch. They also sell their own beans as well as Anchored coffee from Nova Scotia.

A caffeine addict myself, I tend to gravitate towards cafés of all shapes and sizes and universes. One that caught my eye was Café Névé, with a homey vibe and an ambience of a "chill place to hang", this fish caught my eye in a sea of cafés all fighting for my attention. I ordered a cup of coffee, simply with milk and sugar, and a cappuccino. Both were elegantly presented, with beautiful swirl designs embedded in the cup. One thing I'd say is that the espresso was a lot stronger than I'm used to so i ended up nursing my cup for a lot longer than i usually do. However, when taken with the ambiance I'd have to say that Café Névé is a good stop in a city with many similar places.

I asked for a drink with no ice and they serve me a less than half full drink. The audacity that these ppl believe have. I loved this place and come quite often but due to SUCH EXTREME CHEAPNESS never going to come back. Btw it was a green tea lemonade. They just needed to add more FREE water. But they wouldn't. Ask yourself if you like to be treated poorly. If yes, please come on down.

Excellent coffee place for a Cortado, and latte. I tried an iced version of the Turmeric drink they offer (sorry, I can't recall the name now), and it was pretty good, but had a very strong ginger taste. I'm biased towards NYC's Saltwater Turmeric chai latte personally, so others may really love this instead! Névé uses maple syrup to sweeten up the beverage instead of masala chai powder. There is also beautiful artwork displayed, nice decorations, and plenty of seating, making it a great place for studying/working, or visiting with friends.

Apparently good java is hard to get in Montreal so a search led to this spot. The setup is unassuming and seems like a hideout for students and people who can somehow work in a noisy environment. WiFi seems to be a min draw here as saw a lot of people just sitting there and browsing the internet. I ordered a cappuccino and got a scone to boot as well. Scone was decent. Here is the verdict for the cappuccino Espresso: Strong Crema': good Milk frothing: good Latte Art: decent The drink is a traditional size but is quite good. 3.5 stars.

Very cute café, the kind the Plateau is famous for. We stopped by after a trip to Au Kouign Amann and grabbed an ice coffee. The inside was cozy, with nice seats and plenty of wooden tables. Many customers were working on their computers or reading. Probably a great place to avoid procrastination! Unfortunately, the ice coffee was too diluted. Too bad, because the flavor was otherwise great!

Nice cafe with friendly baristas. The latte was great and would definitely go back! I visited during COVID time and thus couldn't sit inside. But it seems like a nice meeting place for normal circumstances:)

Coffee is good but workers are rude and condescending. If you want tasty but overpriced coffee from a snobby barista perfect place to go.

I've been coming here everyday for the past two weeks to meet up with colleagues and never has this place disappointed me. We stay here for a good 8hours to work and it has everything you need; from extension cords to free open wifi to self-serve water, and of course caffeinated drinks to get you through the day. The atmosphere feels home-y and even if it's bustling with people, you're not disturbed by any loud noises. It could get a little dark though, if you're not on your computer and sitting on the very inside. They also only have one bathroom, which could be inconvenient but I never found it a problem. The beverages are pretty good, and they have a cool selection of scones, croissants, muffins, and their giant irresistible cookies... They serve light food as well! Overall a very chill place to study or work.

I stopped in here after having a so-so experience at the hip coffee joint across the street (a block down). I wanted better coffee. And Cafe Neve hit the spot. Great service, amazing cappuccino. Comfy couches. Was glad I found this gem.

I wish I could give a better rating. It really isn't a bad place. It's chill and hipster. But what I had there tasted awful. I ordered iced tea but what they gave me was not lemony nor did it have any citrus flavour typical for iced tea. It wasn't even sweetened!! Furthermore the color was blood red! What are they playing at? Sorry, this iced tea detered me from wanting to go back. Maybe the coffee drinks are good, but definitely not this damned "iced tea".

My first check in abroad! My boyfriend and I came here to work because of the free wifi. The lattes were delicious and the food is also really good. My boyfriend got a grilled cheese sandwich and I got something that had spicy dark chicken in it. I really enjoyed it. There is one unisex bathroom near the large table. Also, there were loads of little tables for people to sit at and one giant one towards the back for larger groups. The only thing I had an issue with is the large table only had 2 outlets for the entire table. Everything else about the cafe was good.

I honestly don't understand the hype around this place. I wish I did. I consider myself to be an avid coffee fan and I have yet to find a Neve drink that I really enjoy. Although they have a plethora of dairy-alternatives for lattes and cappuccinos (major pro!) the espresso is oddly acidic and sour (major, major con). Come summer, I'm always up for cold brew or iced coffee, but the cold brew at Neve always tastes like slightly flavoured water to me. This goes for the iced teas as well. Sadly, every time I spend $5 on a beverage here, I immediately regret it. I've given Neve many chances to change my opinion. I really, really want to like them. They're close to my office. The staff are usually very kind. And don't get me started on the heavenly chocolate chip cookies... (Seriously, they are the reason I keep going back and the reason I'm giving Neve 3 stars instead of 2. Maybe the best cookies in town. I will give them that.) But I simply can't get over the lack of decent-tasting beverage options. I'm really not picky with my coffee, but I just can't get down with a watered down, sour-tasting espresso.

My wife and two friends took a 3 day trip to Montreal and stayed in the Mount Royal area. Every place we visit, we search for the best coffee rated on Yelp and this place won the cake. We stopped in for a great cup of iced coffee and a latte. My only regret is not trying their famous chocolate chip cookies. They looked amazing! Also, the baristas speak English at this coffee shop (a plus for us American tourists).

Coffee smells very different. Music was not very loud and disturbing. Overall it is not unique but if you are around and are looking for a place to go, that is a good one

I came in needing a good wake-me-up coffee, so I ordered a cortado. Perfect. Deep rich complex flavour. I don't know the roast/beans, but it was just right. Not bitter or over-extracted; just full of delicious caffeine goodness. Great ambiance. I had a pastry (excellent), but when I saw the croque monsieur another patron ordered, I wondered if I had made a mistake--it looked superb. Free wifi too. Life is good at Cafe Neve.

By far my favorite coffee shop. Lovely cofffee and what can i say about the cookie. It a secret recipe by the chef and its TOOO GOOODDD ! I always want to go for seconds but i control myself :)! Great vibes great staff n great cofffee

Café Névé aka the Blue Bottle Coffee (San Francisco / Oakland) of Montreal !

Omfg...seriously the best chocolate chip cookies ever!!! Huge, warm, and perfectly balanced between chewy and crunchy. LOADED with chocolate chips/pieces without being too overwhelmingly chocolate (though I admit I'm a passionate chocolate lover...). Way better than Insomnia cookies (hailing from USA, particularly Philadelphia and DC).

Cozy, friendly, perfect noise level to work. Delicious pain perdu!! Moist inside, flakey outside.

Good space, fair price, friendly staff. They have several branches so you can get the experience easier. Music might be a bit loud, but who knows, you might like it ;)

Love the cold brew/iced drinks I've had, can't speak to their hot drinks. They also have some decent options as far as buying coffee beans goes, including their own and some other roasters. The best part is probably not the coffee, but the ridiculously huge cookies (I buy beans here as an excuse to get them). My favorite is the salted caramel macadamia, though it's not meant for people who don't love sugar.

Food is okay and coffee is good. Staff is extremely unfriendly .. this has been my experience the last 3 times I've been here. Maybe next will be better:)

The cookies. OH, THE COOKIES. I've changed apartments at least five times in Montreal, subconsciously moving closer and closer to Café Névé, I think. Now I'm right across the street, and can run out in all hours of the day to satisfy my craving for the best cookie in the city. I know that's a grandiose claim, but I'm not even exaggerating. The atmosphere is warm and buzzing, the baristas friendly, albeit occasionally coolly detached in their barista way, and the food is very reasonably priced and always satisfying. The coffee is wonderful. Seriously though, have a cookie.

Great coffee and pastries- I really enjoyed my chocolate latte. I was able to sneak a bite of my friend's chocolate croissant..amazing- super fresh and flakey.

Great, unpretentious cafe in the heart of the Portuguese neighborhood of the Plateau. Great breakfast options, yummy baked goods, tasty sandwiches, free wi-fi, and in all likelihood the best, most lovingly made coffee in Montreal (and I'm not even a coffee person!). Great place to come on a rainy Sunday morning to either chat with a friend or by yourself with your laptop while you're busy scribbling way on your literary masterpiece.

Really delicious cuppa joe here, so much so that grabbing it to go (in environmentally friendly paper cups) is fine but I go back on my own with new music in my headphones and a quiet hour ahead of me just to drink the coffee properly, sitting quietly, with a little cream and fresh chocolate chunk cookies as big as your face. I had a delicious vegetable Thai soup here today. I tried to order the French Onion but was told honestly that the soup on special was made fresh in house and the onion was bought in and... "a good source of cheese." While I am always glad to know a cheese source, I will choose fresh homemade every time. I was not disappointed, the soup was amazeballs, and the service was 5 gold stars for honesty and accuracy in reporting.

This coffee place was just near our apartment when we holidayed in Montreal, so we pretty much went there every day for breakfast: CAN$3 for filtered coffee, CAN$3.50 for mint tea and CAN$3 for a huge cookie was our usual order. Everything was great. They also have some lunch options around CAN$8-12, but we haven't tried any. The staff is young and nice, and the atmosphere of the place is pretty relaxed - they have a Wi-Fi so many people work a bit here.

Unassuming cafés are a dime a dozen in Montreal. Walk a block there's one; walk one more, there's another. But Café Névé did something right to catch my sister's attention. She's a brisk, focussed walk-er. Only she knows how or why she spotted it. Névé is cute, unpretentious and communal. The only cringe factor came from the hipsters behind the counter. A little too much-ster. The coffee was good. And while I prefer a cappuccino in the afternoon it was a little too pricey for me. For me, the focus shouldn't be on the coffee anyway. Névé serves happiness on a sheet pan - cookies and other baked goods. A simple pan on the counter, next to the register. I looked at the pan and the chocolate chip cookie whispered, 'eat me', which probably means I'm stressed out about something. I don't ever crave sugar or hear voices unless I have a lot going on. So I get the cookie. Two hours later while waiting for dinner reservations, I took a bite of the cookie and I swear I nearly lost my mind. It was one of the BEST chocolate chip cookies I have ever had. EVER. My enthusiasm for this cookie is off-the-charts. It was sweet (but not painfully). It had the nicest burnt caramel like crust on the edges and a soft, chewy (but totally cooked) centre. The cookie is that f*cking amazing.

Location: In the the heart of the Plateau. Since I'm a big-time walker, I don't pay much attention to subway stops other than the ones I frequently use so... from my POV, Mont-Royal is likely the closest, then you've got a quick 5-10 minute trek. Street parking is available but like finding a needle in a haystack in this neighbourhood. The place: I LOVED the space. I don't know why, but it reminded me of a local coffee shop or general store in Maine. It's got a warm and cozy feel to it, with wood accents and pops of blue, and a pretty large counter where you place your order. They have a small array of sweets on offer, and two types of beans if I recall - Anchored and Cut. Maybe I lucked out, but the place was not infested with a large proportion of hipsters when I went, and that pleased me immensely. The goods: I had a Cortado and really enjoyed it. It was a little more bitter than I normally like but this did not affect my enjoyment whatsoever. Tasty! Though I didn't order anything to eat, I did pick at my friend's chocolate chip cookie and thought I might just die from sheer ecstasy and the foodgasm happening in my mouth. I don't know who makes these for Nevé but I need their number. That said, I don't think I could eat an entire cookie because they are gigantic. And chocolatey. And like, gooey. Yum. Service: Good. The guy at the cash was friendly! Price point: I think my Cortado was $3, so on par with most places.

Great, great coffee. Has a nice, warn rustic vibe to the place - authentic and comfy. Has decent sized sofas to lounge, also has a large common table. I've been meaning to check out the other coffee spots in the hood but I keep heading back here. I would skip the breakfast, as it was a just a wee bit pricey for the fare. It'd been fine if all you're looking for is a MTL hangover breakfast that comes with a great, great coffee! It does offer free WiFi.

On a sunny winter afternoon, Café Névé is filled with 20-somethings wearing big glasses and Canada Goose coats, tap-tap-tapping away on their laptops and cellphones. I was looking for a sunny spot to relax with my knitting and a good cuppa joe, and, following the recommendations of other Yelpers and the book Dévorer Montréal, I headed on over. The soup (apple-ginger-fennel) was quite tasty and homemade. The café filtre and giant cookie were fine, but nothing special. (I am a good baker and can make better at home). They did have soy milk for coffee and a dairy-free soup option, merci beaucoup, much appreciated. It cost a little more than I was expecting to pay versus other coffee/lunch spots in the Plateau. All the students on laptops had little cast-iron pots of tea which they kept getting topped up with hot water -- that might be the best strategy for an affordable "coffee shop office." For me, Café Névé was too loud and too dark. The layout is kind of like a tunnel, with a nice southwest-facing window by the door, but long windowless walls leading into the café. The tiny pot lights didn't do enough to counteract the lack of natural light. Probably fine for working on a laptop but not adequate for seeing my knitting or for reading a book. With the abundance of other choices in the area, I'd probably go somewhere else next time. Sorry, authors of Dévorer Montréal, this isn't among my coups de coeur.

Great coffee, and the best chocolate chip cookie in the city. Cool hangout - relaxed, hip, young, but not terribly noisy - so quite the pleasant spot. I want to try their mont-royal location too!

This is one of my favourite cafes in Montreal. Owned by the same guy(s) who do Cafe Flocon, it has great coffe, snacks, and cafe food. The coffee comes from Vancouver, and almost has a ginger-bread taste to it (it's a good thing, trust me). I haven't had their coffee straight-up (black), but I'm pretty sure it would be worthwhile. By far my favourite thing on the menu is their big chocolate chip cookies - I rate them the best in Montreal. The vibe is always chill, but it can get noisy when there's a lot of people coming/going for takeaways. In the quite times, it's a great place to sit with your laptop and get some work done (the wireless is always good for me).

Neve, you little snowflake in the heart of the plateau. You make a sweet a** americano, and freekin awesomely fresh baked scones and yogurt granola cups. Unfortunately I've never had a chance to chill in your log cabin/ hipster den, because you're always jammed with students. Has anyone else noticed the decor matches their amazing blends of Metropolis coffee? those be some good beans!

My favorite coffee spot in Montreal. I'm a big enough man to admit that I am a huge fan of a sweet flavored cafe mochas. Most places in Montreal use unsweetened chocolate flavoring or cacao and I must either add my own sugar or drink a bitter mocha. Not here, Café Névé has come to my rescue. Along with the best mochas in town, Café Névé also offers a variety of sandwiches, cookies and delicious baked goods. I'm a big fan of their spicy Southwest jalapeno & corn scones and warm, moist cinnamon rolls. The place is usually packed with the hipster crowd camped out with their laptops, so it can be tough to find a spot sit down sometimes. If you don't like their food options, you can always grab a coffee and head across the street to Romado's for some chicken.

Café Névé - the first time I glanced over was while I was at Romado's Chicken, and I stopped, threw down my chicken, and said OMG it's Café Névé! (to my friend visiting from Vancouver) and she was like, um, did you need a coffee? If you don't know by now, I always need a coffee, especially when I haven't had a coffee from there yet! I ordered a soy latte and the barista was super awesome and sweet, I determined this from our short conversation in french, and also from the fact that she was smiley. I like smiley. It was beautifully made and tasted great! I eyeballed the desserts case and told myself I wouldn't get one, even if they did look divine! My second time here, I did. I saw the dessert box, and got the low down on the cookies, and when he said biscuit au chocolat et beurre d'arachide, my eyes grew huge, and I said yes. yes, a thousand times yes. (Okay, I didn't but if I was to be dramatic I would have). I ordered another latte and this time the barista/ cash staff were both exceptionally nice as well. The cookie was to die for. I will vouch for this cookie. It was delicious!!!!! So, the only issue I had was the lack of seating that I found, which seems to always be the case. there seems to be a good solid crowd of regulars that hang there, and that is cool, but I wish that there would be more seating. Maybe I need to choose better times. Café Névé though is fast turning into my fav Plateau haunt!

My husband and I just moved from NYC to Montreal. We love coffee and this was one of the first places we came for coffee in Montreal. I am very happy to say Cafe Neve is a cool spot, with friendly service and good coffee! :)

Coffee: 5 stars Ambiance: 3 stars Service: 3 starts Food: don't know There are few spots on the Plateau that have coffee this good. In fact, I usually have to trek up to Mile-End to find something comparable. The beans/grinds they're using are really something else: bold, full bodied, and very well-suited for holding their own in lattes, cappuccinos, and mochas. In fact, I usually drink black coffee or straight espressos, but I make an exception here. I'd recommend trying the mocha; it's particularly exquisite. The service, however, tends to be kind of aloof and slow. For what it's worth, though, these baristas seem to *really* know what they're doing. As for ambiance, it tends to be loud, brightly lit, with awkward seating. In fact, it's very difficult to get a table, and in more than a year of living around the corner, I've never been able to nab one. I will admit, though, that I rarely walk by without popping in to get a coffee.

SO...I JUST WANTED TO SAY, PLEASE DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND GET THEIR COOKIES--they are heaven. Sometimes, they only have the chocolate chip cookies, but I personally love the white chocolate macadamia or the peanut butter. Super rich, slightly gooey in the inside and basically perfect. Not to mention their food and coffee are not too bad either. It's also a great place to study since they have wifi as well. Although it does get pretty stuffy and sometimes packed during the weekends, it's still a great coffee shop to go to. Worth a visit if you're in the area and craving good coffee or the amazing cookies.

Great coffee and tea. Great place to meet and work. Very mile-end without the judgement. One of our favorite places in the area.....and the food it good. Especially the cookies! Cookies, cookies, cookies. The C monster is a regular.

Névé is one of my favourit cafés in Montréal. I love the coffee there, friendly staffs and good music make the café even more comfortable. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XMCNhgBu0EM I recorded a video from an outside seat of the café, and added music on it. The video captures the peaceful atmosphere of the café, you can enjoy the slow time there.
