NOTRE HISTOIRE
Depuis 1982, l’équipe de la Brûlerie offre une expérience café qui se démarque.
La Brûlerie offre maintenant une grande variété de cafés en vrac. Les cafés de spécialité sont torréfiés dans notre petit four artisanal, maximisant ainsi le développement des arômes, des saveurs et bien sûr, la fraîcheur du produit.
Les membres de l’équipe de la Brûlerie suivent un programme de formation continue afin de maintenir un niveau de connaissance élevé dans ce domaine complexe.
Overall, Brûlerie FARO is described as a strong downtown coffee destination where quality and consistency stand out, with a wide selection of beans and a menu that goes beyond coffee to include sandwiches, pastries and salads. Reviews consistently praise rich, flavorful coffee, including espresso drinks, pour overs, mochas and cortados, and note a friendly, efficient staff and a welcoming atmosphere that suits study or casual visits. Many say they return or plan to, valuing both the coffee and sustainability efforts like compostable packaging and bag reuse discounts. On the downside, the space is often tight and can feel crowded, seating is limited, and a few experiences mention not always clean areas or inattentive or rude service; pastry quality is variable and some drinks can taste overly bitter if blends dominate. Still, the overall impression is that Brûlerie FARO delivers reliably good coffee with a nice vibe, making it a go-to in downtown for a quick caffeine fix or a longer stay.
This place has so much potential! The coffee is good & the food was okay, but I've never seen a dirtier café. Tables & chairs were left uncleaned, & the floor looked like it hadn't been touched in days. It wasn't even busy, & I saw people cleaning their own tables just to sit down.

J' achète mon café moulu chez Faro. En réutilisant mon sac de café j' économise vraiment. J'ai payé 8,80$ au lieu de 14,00$ pour 400 grammes.Je crois que ça vaut la peine de recycler & la variété de café donne envie d'y retourner.
FARO Café has quickly become one of my favorite downtown coffee stops. I've visited multiple times, & each visit has been consistently excellent. Their coffee is truly the star of the show-rich, flavorful, & brewed to perfection every single time. I can honestly say I've never had a bad cup here, which speaks volumes for their quality & consistency.
The menu extends beyond coffee, offering a nice selection of beverages, sandwiches, pastries, & salads. While I haven't explored these as much, they make FARO a versatile spot for a quick snack or light meal.
What sets FARO apart, aside from their stellar coffee, is the service. The staff is polite, efficient, & spot-on with orders. Coffee lovers will understand how important it is to get exactly what you ordered-& at FARO, that's a given.
If you're downtown & need a reliable, excellent coffee experience, FARO Café is a must-visit. I'll definitely keep coming back & highly recommend you check it out.

So very nice to get a perfect cortado outside Spain.
Most of our pastries were excellent but a raspberry & pistachio scone was heavy & very dry.
But will definitely go back for the coffee & a pain au chocolat or other such delight.
Even though it's a roasting house, you can't choose the coffee you want - the options available are blends of different beans, so in the end, you'll end up with a bitter coffee, not a specialty one, unfortunately.

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.
no joke, one of the few cafés in montreal that make good coffee. I always take iced latte with caramel syrup. first of all, the price is slightly lower than in other places, so definitely a big plus!. second, latte does not taste watery, but has good coffee flavour, even after some time. third, they always put a lot of syrup, & it tastes soooo yummy, I am transported to heaven. definitely recommend 🧚?♀?

Great atmosphere, knowledge staff, not the greatest specialty coffee I've had in the city, but I haven't tried everything they have to offer, so I will definitely be coming back.
Update: Second Visit got a Flash Brew Kemex with the Costa Rica black honey coffee, still not the best in the city, but it is definitely up there. The fact that they do full Kemexs means it's perfect for dates & larger groups. The coffee was expertly brewed & the final cup was refreshing & flavourful.
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.
