Always make a point to stop when in Montreal. Coffee is perfect every time, sandwiches are light & delicious (the rapini is my favourite), & service is always welcoming.

The atmosphere here is incredible, it's visually appealing & I love what they're trying to do. My only complaint, & I guess it's kind of a big one, my double shot of espresso in a latte was not good. The shot took around 15 seconds to pull, & was extremely sour. It happens, & because it was in a latte form, it was tolerable. But I wouldn't have been able to enjoy it as a straight shot. I'd give Bar Caffeettiera a try again though.

The coffee here is amazing! Had to go back two times because I wanted to try everything. Not an overly traditional little coffee shop, it has a fun retro vibe inside & they serve both coffee & cocktails. We tried the regular cafe latte, their version of iced coffee, & the nutella latte. All the drinks were amazing, but I highly recommend their iced latte, which is essentially in the form of a slushy. Highly recommend going in & having a coffee, it was my favorite coffee shop in Montreal during my visit.

We got coffee which was good. The vibe with the music they were playing was great. The barista was trying to sing along which was entertaining clearly he was feeling the music.

Minimalist Italian-style cafe. Simple & delicious sandwiches. Italian coffee options were very good. Highly recommend the Marocchino if you want something a little sweet.
