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.

We enjoyed a flat white & moka here (the moka was priced the same as a regular latte so I gave it a try & it was not overly chocolatey or sweet). Good amount of seating inside & a clean bathroom.

Cool, modern & cozy cafe. Medium sized with just enough seating. I spent a few hours here working & found it to be a comfortable place to work. Got a bit noisy after 5pm. Service from the staff was great. Made me a great latte.

I absolutely love this cafe. I discovered it during my vacation in Montreal. Love the vibe, comfortable seating & delicious coffee & pastries. Great place to relax or study.
I would definitely visit this cafe again when I come back to Montreal.

I visited back in January & still think about this place fondly. They serve a very tasty mocha & matcha latte. The only downside was the limited seating - since many people come here to be productive, it can be hard to find a spot, especially during the winter months.
