Review Summary

Micro Espresso Café is described in reviews as a tiny, cozy, mostly take-out spot in Old Montreal with a minimalist, warm vibe and a serious focus on great coffee; espresso drinks like cappuccino and flat white are repeatedly praised for balance, richness, and smoothness, often alongside pastries such as croissants or turnovers. The space is snug with limited seating, making it ideal for a quick stop rather than lingering, while friendly staff create a welcoming impression and frequently roast their own beans for a fresh, local touch. Several reviews mention excellent value and consistently high quality across beans and roasts, and some celebrate the shop’s aroma and the attention to detail, though a few note a preference for hotter coffee or minor price considerations around non-dairy milks. Overall, Micro Espresso Café emerges as a standout for fast, high-quality coffee and well-made pastries in a small, stylish setting.

A cute little coffee shop hidden in a corner of Old Port. It's mostly for takeout but they do have a tiny seating area. Great coffee served by friendly & skilled baristas! I always go for an iced latte which is definitely one of the best I've ever had in Montreal. Also LOVE their small batch roasted beans for espresso & cold brew.

Update: still my fav place 2 years later!

Tiny space with a few stools at the bar & great service offering excellent espresso & great pastries. Knowledgeable & professional/friendly staff. Offering up their own roasted beans. Highly recommend!

I wouldn't go as far as to say I'm a coffee fanatic, but as a batista myself, I consume an obscene amount of coffee & this has been one of the best coffee I have ever had. The seamless blend of bean, milk, & syrup was perfection. I was sad when I drank it all. I also had a sesame miso cookie(?) on a whim & gosh, I should have gotten another 2. Thank you for a great cup of coffee. The platinum blond batista was so friendly.

The best Ethiopian coffee here. Cozy place & expected a line but really worth it. You can choose the bean you prefer & milk options as well. Friendly staff with smile always bring you back as a reason. Highly recommend 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Best coffee in town. I ordered a flat white with the Brazilian bean, & my wife ordered a cafe latte with Ethiopian bean. Our first impressive were, wow.

Honestly, one of the most wonderful coffee experiences I've ever had. After chatting briefly with Rowan about coffee roasting & the fact that they roast their own beans, we spent an afternoon casually trying various coffees he has personally purchased & brewed.

If I could rate this higher, I would.

Go, get a coffee, slow down & absorb the ambience :)
