Simply amazing!! I absolutely love this café! The atmosphere is warm and inviting, making it the perfect spot to relax or catch up with friends. But the real stars are the pastries, deliciously scrumptious, freshly made, and full of flavor in every bite. Each pastry tastes like it was baked with so much care and passion. Definitely a place I’ll keep coming back to. Highly recommend to anyone who enjoys great food and heavenly treats!

I randomly saw this place in Google maps as I was looking for more restaurant options in the area. At the time, it didn’t have many reviews or photos, but I trusted the very few positive reviews here and decided to check this place out. They offer a wide selection of sandwiches, soups, salads, and pastries, all made in-house daily. I had their chicken pesto wrap and their special for the day, and it was sooo good and fresh. After visiting here twice, it has become part of my regular lunch spot! I like that the menu seems to change daily and some of their options are based on availability but I think coming to Chez Houri you will find something you like, whether for breakfast or lunch! This place looks new too, but I’m glad they’re contributing to more tasty food options in the Parc-Extension area .
