This is a great place with a great vibe and really pretty interior but if you're going to come here on weekend be ready that it's very crowded and you'll have to wait in a queue a lot. I was surprised that even tho there's a lot of people it's still quiet and cozy. Drinks and soups are very good and very affordable! I want to mention the people that are working here, they're doing a great job and even tho it's so hard and stressful to have a non-stop flow of clients they're still nice, patient and respectful. I'll 100% come here again but will try to find a day when it's a little less crowded. Special thanks to the hostess at this establishment, she is wonderful

this cafe is the definition of going over to a cozy friends house for lunch! the backyard is STUNNING and a must if you’re visiting during the summer time (perf plateau vibes)! My favourite sandwich is the duluth but all their food is delicious! Their bread is pillowy soft and all the flavours in their sandwich blends together harmoniously. Portions are also great for their price! I’m also a big fan of their baked goods like scones and carrot cake. This place is a go-to place to bring any friends visiting town!

Best terrace in Montreal/Canada -- it's absolutely gorgeous and even has a koi pond. It has such a nice atmosphere, and it's such a relaxing place to spend some time during the day. It's a must visit spot in the warmer months. The food, drinks and desserts are delicious and all worth trying. Servers are attentive and kind.

My birthday was last Thursday, June 5th. The weather was beautiful, a great day to enjoy the wonderfully funky garden at Cafe Santropol. Of course, I had to tell our waiter that it was my birthday! The ambiance is so friendly and festive (freylech). Santropol has been open for approximately 50 years and I have been a customer for almost that long. I enjoyed the walk down memory lane. The original founder of the restaurant still owns it, which is very cool. For the first time ever, I did not order a cream cheese based sandwich (which I really like). Instead, I opted for the tofu sandwich with marinated red pepper- delicious! My honey enjoyed the chicken salad. My side salad and his full salad showcased a variety of vegetables and a tasty dressing. The Birthday Cake (bread pudding) was a terrific surprise!!!!! The wait staff were efficient, friendly, adorable and helpful. We struck up a conversation with a nearby diner, a lovely samba dancer- and will try at attend upcoming performances! Who knows? I may make lunch at Cafe Santropol a yearly birthday tradition! However, I will surely be back before next June... Someone at a nearby table had ordered a milkshake topped with whipped cream- it really looked tempting. La prochaine fois?

This place is so unique. Just a chill, relaxing vibe and the carrot cake (recommended by my chiropractor lol) was amazing. Staff were all great, friendly and conversational too.

This cafe is an experience. I'm he sandwiches are fulfilling and the beverages are on point. Reasonable quantity and price. I'd definitely visit again to try something new but I'm more into the place and how it's designed. Loved it !

Really enjoyed the food and coffee! Cute spot and huge sandwich. Would go back for sure :) I tried the triple saint urban sandwich with chicken! The sweet and savoury combination was absolutely amazing!!!!

Worth the wait! Primarily vegetarian and/or vegan menu, with options to add meat and dairy to some dishes. Huge sandwiches on fresh pillowy bread and hearty soups (ask about the soup of the day!) Charming and cozy atmosphere with expansive and secluded patio and curated decor. Will be back next time I’m in Montreal!
