Plats chaleureux 🌞

Beau petit café vegan qui partage le local avec une épicerie. Carte courte (toujours bon signe car ça indique que les plats sont faits maison!) mais les plats sont vraiment délicieux et on sent que c'est fait avec le cœur. Mon préféré est le club sandwich qui est vraiment bon et la portion est énorme!

Les gérants / proprios sont super sympas et accueillants. L'étage principal est agréable mais personnellement je suis moins fan de la salle au sous-sol à cause de l'absence de lumière naturelle. Au rez-de-chaussée, les tables sont proches des fenêtres !

Toutes les plantes du restaurant sont proposées à la vente !

Pros: Carte courte, plats chaleureux, Personnel accueillant et sympathique, Belle luminosité dans la salle principale

Cons: Le mobilier pourrait être amélioré (+ confortable)

Délicieux sandwich et desserts dans un cadre luxuriant

Ce petit café est accueillant et on y sert de la nourriture préparée maison très savoureuse!
La chocolatine aux cachous est très bonne et en plus c'est un produit de valorisation de la torréfaction du café.

PS toutes les plantes présentes dans le café sont à vendre

Enjoyed my experience here

Lovely little cafe on Wellington Street. Friendly service, fast wi-fi, small seating area. The menu is fully vegetarian, but there are many vegan options, all of which are clearly labelled so. I had their daily special, a vegan pulled pork panini, with a side of coleslaw, both of which were delicious.

Pros: Vegan pulled pork panini was amazing!

Disappointing changes

This place used to be vegan, now it’s vegetarian. Also used to be zero waste, now has single-use coffee cups, etc. The food is okay, the coffee hit or miss, but the service is very cordial.

Friendly & tasty

Friendly staff. They have a plate for kids with seitan nuggets, fruits, lemonade and a toy from Renaissance, the local thrift store. Such a good idea!

The salad I ordered was really yummy and filling. There's a terrace in the summer, and a room downstairs with toys for the kids to play. There's also a zero waste little store at the back.

The grilled cheeze is also delicious, but filled with grilled onions, so my difficult kids didn't like it, but the adults did.

We always stop here when we're in the area.

Fabulous place and food

Oh well where should I start? The place its self is just amazing, very friendly people. A shop that offers “zero waste” at the back of the cafe which is perfect.
The cafe itself is simply excellent, the food, the cafe, the chai, the matcha, the pastries (croissants, chocolatine, scones....and burgers, salades.) and yes for sure they are vegan!

The little plus: an amazing space downstairs where arts for different artist are displayed.

And in the summer a terrace outside :-)

If you want to chilled or work then you can come and enjoy this space!

Came three times and I have not been disappointed once!

Pros: vibes , good for value , excellent food

Amazing vegan croissants!

Cafe Jardin has the flakiest, vegan-butteriest, most delicious croissants! I brought a bunch to a gathering and everyone was shocked to find out they were vegan...they're that good! I've also had the vegan cashew-cream croissant and the banh mi sandwich and both were outstanding.

And a special shout out to the cafe chef/owner(?) - I was looking for some vegan, gluten-free pastry options for 2 celiac friends and they didn't have anything ready, but the chef offered to make some special gf cashew-cookies in 10 mins while I waited—my friends were so grateful! The customer service is always top notch. 5+++

Great lunch sandwiches

We stopped in for lunch and tried both of the grilled sandwiches that were available for lunch. I especially enjoyed the BLT and my teenager enjoyed his grilled cheese with caramelized onions. I love that this place is zero waste.

Great zero waste inventory & vegan snacks

Vegan pastries are really tasty, specifically this brownie cookie hybrid thing. Loved that they have La Tasse (homemade lemonade is very good), and lots of zero waste stuff.😄

Friendly cafe

The cafe shares a local with the zero waste grocery store LOCO. At first you go in the cafe and in the back there is the grocery store LOCO. Note that there is no seating area inside, but there is a small patio outside. The staff is super friendly and the cafe is zero waste. You can bring your own containers to get your food and beverage. I had a vegan kiwi-matcha pop which was good. I also had a chocolatine and a croissant, which were very good (they are made by Croissant Croissant located on Mont-Royal).

Pros: Friendly staff, Zero waste

The chocolatine was bomb 🤤

Really nice people and cute place. I tried the BLT sandwich and the chocolatine. It was so good I ordered another one since it had been ages since I had had one and legit filled the empty hole in my life without it.

Pros: Nice staff, Easy to access by metro, Yummy chocolatine

Cons: Not a ton of take out options

best breakfast in town!!!

if you have the chance to breakfast at this place, please go there and check out there ‘brunch’. they will serve you, scrambled tofu with incredible good tempeh and kale salad. (maybe ask for lots of dressing on the kale). it was the best ever tasted tempeh we had, we enjoyed the atmosphere and I really liked the combination with the zero waste shop

Pros: best tempeh ‘bacon’ ever, also zero waste store (so bring your own bags), all vegan meals

5e café

Il y avait de la place de stationnement payante juste en face. J’ai l’impression que le parcomètre était moins cher que dans la jungle rose.

Ce café est vegan, concept 0 déchets.
Bien content de ne pas avoir d’empreinte sur l’environnement grâce à ce concept

Je me demande si je prends pour emporter?


Petite épicerie dans le fond. Salle à dîner en bas.

Le menu est petit, c’est plus un café qu’un resto, et ils s’affichent comme tel.


J’ai pris le sandwich végé-pâté. C’était bon, mais petit.

Plant-based, not vegan.

This is a cute cafe and a nice addition to the local community. Unfortunately, they are more focused on environmentalism than on animal rights (the two should not be exclusive).

As such, while they do not serve any animal food on the menu, they continue to host workshops promoting animal exploitation (how to start a local apiary, and how to prepare and eat insects are two recent examples).

Still offering some of the better plant-based options in the neighbourhood, it is a bit jarring to see animal exploitation openly advertised on their social media.

cute vegan zero waste cafe

This cute lil cafe has pastries, coffees and snacks all vegan and all zero waste! It's also attached to a zero waste grocery store so you can stock up on essentials while you're there. Definitely worth supporting. They have croissants!

Pros: all vegan, zero waste
