| - This Second Cup always seems nearby when I'm really craving something to drink. It's a 24-hour location, right next to Paragraphe. And there's lots of seating--in addition to some seating inside the cafe, there are two additional areas in the building lobby which are cleaned and maintained by the staff. And there's outdoor seating on McGill College in warm weather.
The staff, while pleasant, sometimes seem quite frazzled here--even when the cafe is essentially empty. And both times I have been here of late, at least one of their blenders was apparently incapable of actually blending ice--resulting in fruit chillers (incidentally, the best summer drink ever) that were chunky, headache-inducing, and hard to finish. You will get better service and better summer drinks at the Second Cup on Ste-Catherine, but if you want space to hang out, or space to write, or just crave coffee at 3 AM, I imagine that this is the place to get it.
