Café Caron & frères

Welcome to the neighborhood! These guys are off to a fantastic start. They did their market research and realized that while the immediate area is full of amazing old-school Italian cafes, there are only two good Third Wave coffee spots within a 2km radius.Café Caron & frères understands that it is quality, above all, that makes a great cafe. Our first impression with 5-stars - an excellent Third Wave cappuccino.Their menu has more than one would expect. The food selections look great and we’ll be back regularly to try them.Look for ongoing excellent creativity in what we hope with be a neighborhood mainstay.***EDITED 23 April 2023:***So I am fièrement un Caroniste! ᕙ(`▿´)ᕗThis is the best café in Montreal. Period.I am here every day - the most regular of the regulars. I have been at some of the best cafes in the world with over 3 million miles of travel. I put Café Caron & frères firmly in this group.Simon, Xavier, and the entire team are very passionate about everything they do and this begins with a curated coffee experience. To sit at Caron and have a coffee is the best coffee experience in Montreal. The coffee is always prepared with care, they bring in beans from the best roasters in Montreal, the province, and the world.The food is superb. My preference is their vege-pate sandwich. For a city with a lot of great vege-pate (it’s kind of a thing here) Caron’s sandwich is salty, savory, and utterly delicious.To sit inside, out front on the bench, or in the side yard on the picnic tables is always very accommodating. No matter how busy the Caron brothers are in this very popular spot, you will always be made to feel at home here.In my original review, I hoped that they would aspire to be part of our Little Italy community; in fact, they have emerged as leaders, always looking to make people happy.If you are anywhere in the city, do not miss a visit to Café Caron & frères!!

Open at 7 on weekdays, this small space fits a lot of great coffee and well designed seating area. Very quickly this is becoming one of the top spots to try in Little Italy ;)

Wonderful matcha latte, one of my favourites in the city! Cute patio.

Great spot for a quick morning coffee and/or for working. It wouldn't be crowded because the space is not huge but that's the type of places I usually prefer. Staff was very welcoming.The brakfast sandwich was a bit of a disapointment for me but it's a matter of personal choice. Other than that, hot drinks and croissants are good. I would revisit if I need to work out of home sometimes.

A very pleasant and relaxing ambience. Great coffees and an awesome crew. Will definitely come back to try some more of the beverages and the food.

Lovely little unpretentious cafe in the heart of Little Italy. The staff is friendly, helpful and courteous. And if you need help choosing from their generous selection of coffee grains: boy do they know their stuff!

Cute little café with top-quality products and service.The setting is relaxed but cozy, with different seating options for all crowds (bar, couch, table, terrasse, bench). Coffee is of course excellent (Caron brothers are known for this ), but food is also a must if you stop here!Personal fav is the breakfast sandwich, I’ll definitely be coming back for it.Highly recommend if you’re looking for a casual spot to catch up with friends for coffee or have a snack!

Incredible cafe! The sandwiches were delightful. The latte was smooth and so beautiful. And the London Fog was to die for. The vibe was wonderful cozy and cheerful while clean and modern. The employees were friendly, efficient, and helpful. I can’t say enough good things about this place! Can’t wait to come back often.

Simply THE BEST!! I’d give this cafe a 6 star if I can. You can order anything here and you won’t be disappointed. I come here every week.
