Review Summary

Brûlerie FARO generally earns praise for coffee that is rich, flavorful and consistently well brewed, with many noting excellent lattes, mochas and a wide bean selection, though a few reviews mention a coffee-machine change that altered the taste and drinks that arrive lukewarm. The atmosphere is cool, modern and cozy, with comfortable space for working, but seating can be limited and noise can rise in the afternoon. Service is often friendly and efficient, with helpful staff and occasional missteps or rudeness noted by a few. Location downtown is convenient, and opinions on value vary from top-tier coffee destination to pricey for modest food. Cleanliness is mixed, with some reports of unclean tables and dirty bathrooms and even a few issues like flies. Overall, Brûlerie FARO stands out for its coffee and consistency, but visit quality can hinge on seating, cleanliness and service at different times.

Nice coffee, but serving dine-in drinks in disposable paper cups was really disappointing. It feels unnecessary, wasteful, & takes away from the café experience. I wouldn't expect that from a place that wants to create a cozy sit-down atmosphere.

Honestly kinda mid. I spent 22 dollars on a moka & a chicken wrap. The sofa is heavily worn out & looks kinda gross. The food & drink state ok but is definitely not worth the price.

I ordered coffee, but two women who worked laughed about few minutes laughed & ignore my order without do anything even though the espresso was ready. The drink & the atmosphere are good, but the working are so rude.

Great tasting lattee & barista making our drinks was super friendly ! Poured it perfectly without spilling it over & gave herself a bow which was rightfully deserved haha. Look forward to returning.

I would consider myself a loyal fan of café faro until today. i went to pick up a chai latte since it's my usual however there was an odd smell like urine. i compared the smell from the drink & the lid & the smell was coming from the lid. it took me a moment to realized there was yellow stains from it & that's where the horrible smell was coming from. i genuinely felt sick to my stomach & i don't feel like going back there anymore which is upsetting since it was really my fav cafe :(
