Cute little coffee shop with home made almond milk.

Really nice place to work or have a coffee with a friend. Super amazing treats made in house and chilled music.

Pros: Home made milk and treats , Relaxed atmosphere

Best vegan cafe

Homemade everything! Fresh scones, muffins, cookies, and many other baked goods. Amazzzinng saitan sandwiches. Smoothies that are delicious, refreshing and fulfilling (the coffee flavoured one is like an iced cap, but way better and not slushy at all). Coffee itself is very good and the selection of plant-based milks is excellent! So glad we discovered this place and hope it’s heart and commitment to quality live on!

Pros: All vegan , Friendly staff, Homemade creations that don’t disappoint

Wow

Just disproved this cute little cafe. Best part is that it is 8-10 minute walk from my apartment. I'm so happy that I found somewhere I can go study and have a nice coffee/ snack. The tofu ricotta sandwich was great. Tried the pumpkin latte. It wasn't the best, but that's because I don't usually opt for flavour lattes but I loved that it didn't have an artificial syrup taste like most flavoured lattes. As I was leaving, I bought their cinnamon roll and WOW amazing!! Nothing but positive for this cafe!! Will be returning very often

Sympa

Endroit parfait pour un lunch ou un café. Menu simple mais très bon (choix de deux excellents sandwich vegan, soupe, succulents muffins). Le café est excellent, lait végétal évidemment. Le choix d'offrir le lait de vache peut être discutable mais permet, au dire des propriétaires, d'ouvrir la porte à une clientèle plus grande. Tout à fait juste, et tout le reste est vegan!

Pros: convivial

Cons: petit

super bon café

En plus de super bonne sandwiches au seitan et pop tarts véganes ! Je donne seulement 3* pour le lait de vache.

Nice tiny place

Went there for breakfast. I met my friend at 8:30am on a Sunday, it's so good to have a vegan place opened so early. But the choice at that time is pretty small, although new choices (muffins, etc.) were added during the morning.

Pros: Looks nice, Friendly staff

Charmant café quasi-entièrement végétalien sur le Plateau

Charmant petit café ouvert au courant de l'été 2016, Esquina sert les grains du torréfacteur Pilot Coffee Roasters (à Toronto) et propose une cuisine entièrement végétalienne. En fait, si ce n'était pour le lait de vache proposé pour les boissons (latte, flat white, etc.), le café serait entièrement vegan! D'ailleurs, et c'est assez rare pour que ça mérite d'être souligné, le lait d'amande est fait maison. Attendez-vous donc à un meilleur goût que les différentes sortes disponibles dans le commerce.
Le café est ouvert assez tôt et, dès l'ouverture ou presque, plusieurs pâtisseries sont disponibles (muffins, brioches décadentes, etc.). Plus tard, on retrouve quelques options salées (p. ex. tartine au hummus).
Même si l'endroit est relativement étroit et que quelques places assises, la décoration est trendy et l'atmosphère agréable. Si vous en avez la chance, prenez la place près de la fenêtre.
Même s'il y a déjà beaucoup de cafés indépendants sur le Plateau, Esquina apporte un plus au quartier (ne serait-ce que pour l'orientation végane). À essayer!

Love this spot!

Delicious single-origin coffees and the pop-tarts are the best!
