I've been coming to dispatch for 3 years & it's my absolute favourite cafe in montreal (among so many great ones)!!! The baristas are always so nice & helpful providing great service, & the coffee really is the best. Had an issue with an online gift card today & they helped me resolve it quickly & efficiently. Great selection of beans with ethical origins, & they can grind them for your needs. Also a lovely place to work or study with lots of space to sit, & outlets/wifi.
Point positif: l'intérieur du café est agréable, quoique trop bruyant. Pour le reste, tout est plutôt quelconque & le service ne mérite sûrement pas l'exhorbitant 18% qu'on nous propose comme minimum…
Spacious Café with a bright Vibe! Friendly
staff!
This coffee shop has a lovely, spacious interior with a clean white aesthetic that gives off a calm & positive vibe. The terrace is a nice option, though it can get a bit noisy during the day! during our visit, several trucks passed by on St-Laurent, which disrupted the peaceful atmosphere a little.
I really enjoyed the carrot cake, moist & flavorful , ginger cookie, & the filter coffee was smooth & satisfying. However, the cold brew wasn't quite to my taste; it had a slightly off flavor that didn't quite hit the mark.

Best espresso I've had in Montreal. Tried crew's collective's espresso yesterday. Pretty sure they used a dark roast & espresso's probably not their forte. This joint on the other hand is a proper third wave coffee shop. Light roast, slow brew, top notch sweetness in their espressos. Just the right amount of acidity for my palette.
Dear Dispatch 💜
Your radical integrity is a rarity & such an important part of the Montreal landscape.
I am pleased to be your neighbour, & I adore your breakfast sandwich.
Keep being awesome.
Un style brut ! Le cadre de ce café est superbe. L'esthétique est brute & lumineuse. On s'y sent bien, on s'y régale. Parfait pour s'y poser, accompagné d'une bonne boisson & d'une pâtisserie gourmande.
