Cafè In Gamba

I have been going to Caffè in Gamba for years! Since they expanded & renovated (& one of the partners started his own venture in Little Italy) their customer service has gone downhill. Today, I bumped into a neighborhood friend & was chatting. As she was leaving I went to get my coffee & was ordered by the barista to sit where she was sitting, when I had already made myself a space. I told him that they were about to leave & we had just bumped into each other. That I had come because I had work to do. He proceeded to order me to sit there again. I decided to leave instead. Ending my relationship with the establishment. Do they have great coffee? Yes. Is it a beautiful place to sit & work? Yes. Do I want to support a business that has 0 sense of customer service? Absolutely not.

While when you walk in past the pretty terrasse, the lineup, to the left, of serious geriatric students of the internet are a little imposing (unless it is there is a seat for YOU & your MAC), this place (equipped with TWO pristine & functioning bathrooms! You could use both!) is pretty much a temple to good coffee (& good cheer). The baristas are charming & charmingly precise with their drinks, & never once have I had a milky flower design on my coffee that didn't seem absolutely necessary. True, it ain't free, but the cortado (providing they are using a servicable bean) is pretty superlative. Baked goods, good for the neighborhood, but croissants often deflated & somewhat salty. That said, it is EXCEEEDLY rare to find a flaky fresh croissant, in part because they are too MORTAL a pastry. The place used to be a little monastic with...what do you call them, teleworkers? But in recent years the vibe is good, the patio upbeat & fillled with pretty people in the good times, & the proximity to the SAQ just perf.

Went here for a late afternoon snack & coffee as I always pass by & never tried it yet, wish I had sooner as it's a very cute little terrace (also have indoor seating), the cappuccino was so tasty & went well with their confectioneries~ it was quite busy but don't be shy it was still definitely worth it to us & we'll be coming back :)
