On our map. We haven't walked through the door yet — here's why it's on the list.
The only independent café in Côte-des-Neiges, founded by couple Karim and Valérie with the idea of creating a gathering place shaped by the neighbourhood's student population — "a café by and for students." The kitchen builds its sandwiches around crusty breads, cured meats and locally sourced produce.
The menu also covers brunch, pastries and salads, served from 7 a.m. to 9:30 p.m. daily, in a space meant to anchor the surrounding community.
Caravane Café is on the Regulars map — spotted, not yet visited. Our guides are written on foot, door by door, and no one pays to appear: when we walk through the door, this note will become a portrait. No points. No coupons. Standing is earned.
