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 come here to buy my coffee beans every chance I get. The staff are super friendly. The beans are somewhere between a high end boutique bean & a grocery store one - & the price is more than fair. Come & stay for an espresso & a piece of baklava 😊

I heard their coffee is really good around the area, so we decided to garb a latte. We entered to the store around the store opening. There are already busy, so my expectation got higher. I enjoyed coffee smells, I could hear they grind coffee beans. I noticed that lots of customers purchased coffee beans. Baristas, cashier were very friendly. I was looking forward to drink my but unfortunately it was lacking espresso taste, & watery. I even couldn't finish it…it was sad for me. I am hoping to try coffee beans or drip coffee next time though! There are a lot of different regions beans, & fair tread beans too. Looks nice! Just additional information-they don't take Credit cards.

Je dois ajuster mon opinion. Toujours un bon service & café, mais l'espresso n'est plus bon. On demande pour un court, mais la tasse est trop remplie. J'ai donc arrêté d'y aller. L'extraction est non plus pas la meilleure & la tasse est que tiède.
