Came into a busy shop on Boxing Day. They served the line up quickly. The tables cleared out by the time we got our drinks. The Freddo Noel (hot) is a delicious peppermint coffee. The hot chocolate was perfect. Their frothed milk is the creamiest I have ever seen. Friendly and efficient service. Wonderful place to visit. Highly recommended.

Firstly I didn’t plan to visit this cafe. As I’m walking out of the Bernie Beigne donut store across the street I noticed this lovely cafe packed to the gills so much so that there was steam on the windows. Thanks to having fresh donuts in my possession I thought that I should check this place out as it seems “cool” and if I’m inspired, why not marry a good cup of “Joe” to my donuts - right?? So we got in line and we were served by Tony (an owner) and he was really cool. Also very patient. Why you ask? Because I don’t know all the “cafe lingo” and basically asked for a decaf cappuccino and a decaf cup of coffee with two cream and a sweetener. This had to be explained to me how a simple cup of decaf coffee would be prepared - I’m like “as long as it’s coffee in a cup I do t care how are what you do” and with a friend warm smile it was done. As we waiting to be served our coffees to the right where the other partner manages the outbound side of the business - he too was super friendly and warm and also speaks Greek too! Interior is clean, cosy, intimate, chic, and smells divine. All you want to do is find a cosy spot and drink you coffee and and drink more coffees and just relax in this busy happening little gem of a place to relax and enjoy an amazing selection brand they use to make super premium coffee. Yes, the quality of their beans have to be at the level of a European cafe. The nose was clean and crisp with perfect balance. Just smelling the coffee puts a smile on my face. But drinking this coffee is something special. I highly recommend your first sip to be a calm mindful one. Why? You need to give a little respect to the craft. You deserve the pleasure enjoy all aspects of their high quality coffee and just relax. Don’t rush this. Savour the experience as this is not Tim Horton, Starbucks, second cup etc - this is what coffee should be in this city. This is also a great place for a first or any date for that matter. And don’t be shy, the owners are young and outgoing friendly down to earth people who love to hear (good or bad - not that this happens lol) feedback from their clients as their focus is that the customer experience is like no other.

Café Alphabet is an absolute gem in the heart of the Mile End! From the moment you walk in, you’re welcomed with warm smiles and genuine hospitality. The staff here are truly amazing, they’re not only friendly and attentive, but also passionate about what they do. Whether you’re a regular customer or visiting for the first time, they make you feel right at home. The Greek inspired touch in both the drinks and ambiance adds a unique charm that sets this café apart from others in Montreal. Their Freddo Cappuccino is my personal favourite and a must-try! You can tell they put real passion into every cup. Café Alphabet has that rare mix of great coffee, inviting atmosphere, and incredible service that makes you want to come back again and again. Highly recommend!
