Ludo Café is one of those hip Montreal spots that you are going to want to know about. It opened at the end of June of this year and has been killing it ever since. Not only can you get a delicious cup of coffee and some treats but, behind the white doors, there's also a full-on boxing ring. That's right, coffee and boxing — a combination we never knew we needed! You may just feel like you're in Los Angeles, as no one in Montreal has ever created something even close to this. We spoke with owner Antoine Tava, who also happens to be one of our city's most talented artists, about this unique spot and how it came into existence.

Limited quantities. Now available in store 🖤🐼 #meltingpanda #pandaboxing @jerry.z.huang A post shared by PANDA BOXING ™ (@pandaboxing_mtl) on Aug 26, 2020 at 11:23am PDT Tava told us that he wanted the space to feel "exclusive and intimate" and that it was very important for him to "embrace an underground vibe." The team set out to create a world that would let members of Panda Boxing leave all their problems behind and focus on their fitness goals — without any exterior distractions. That explains the dim lighting, barricaded windows, and of course, the speakeasy entrance to the studio space. How does the vibe of Ludo Café and Panda Boxing come together?
