This was the best cafe I found in the area. I generally ordered a cappuccino and either a chocolate croissant or a brownie. All the baked items looked delicious and the salads I saw looked amazing...unfortunately I'm mildly obsessed with chocolate so I didn't get a chance to try them. I quite liked the place as it is priced much like other cafes in Montreal, the staff was accommodating (of my terrible French), and the relaxed ambiance. I would say for those that are coffee connoisseurs that while the coffee is well made the beans do have a distinct flavor that is a little different. Most cafes that I've been to in Montreal seem to use the same beans while Hoche Cafe uses Metropolis Beans (I think they are from a coffee roaster in Chicago but I may have read this incorrectly). I'm not sure how many times in total I went here but I stayed nearby for 7 days so roughly went in about 1-2 per day....it's good!
