5 stars on everything. From the coffee, staff & overall setting. Cafe Rico has the best coffee beans in all of Montreal at reasonable prices. I get their decaf as I can only drink it due to a health condition. Their decaf is the BEST as it is full bodied, robust, not bitter & has a perfect mouthfeel. I drink predominantly espresso & their beans taste amazing even when I am in the mood for a latte, cappuccino or macchiato it never disappoints. Other decafs at other bruleries taste more watered down & are highly acidic. My friends who come & have a coffee cannot believe how good it is & I converted them to Cafe Rico. Best prices for beans in all Montreal. If I went elsewhere for a kilo I would definitely be paying alot more for something inferior. It is a pleasure to come in & see the people behind the counter who actually love being there. They are very pleasant & always helpful.

Disappointed at first because I did not pay attention to store hours & drove there, parked, to find out it was closed. Went to dispatch coffee.
I bought a relatively small bag of grounded espresso coffee for $27. 2 weeks later I went to Rico Coffee.
I bought a bag of grounded espresso more than double the bag size for $20, fresh, delicious.
I will definitely go back

I never leave reviews but I love this place so much. They use coffee iced cubes so your drinks don't water down, their staff is awesome, their prices are unbeatable & everything is fair trade. Literally could not ask for a better coffee shop to be so close to my place!
