Many patrons describe the shop as a cozy, minimalist hole-in-the-wall that is perfect for a high-quality grab-and-go experience, noting the exceptionally smooth, balanced flavor profiles of the roasts. While the physical space is quite small with very limited seating, visitors consistently highlight the friendly and skilled staff, welcoming atmosphere, and delicious pastries.

This is probably turned into one of my favorite cafés in Montréal. It's such a treat to get coffee from Micro Espresso, & I love picking up a bag of their coffee beans to enjoy it at home. The service is always super friendly, & I'm already thinking about the next time I go back.

Maybe not as super-high of a review as some of the others here. I tend to buy pretty high quality beans for my pour-over & I have been doing it for some time now. I felt the pour-over here was pretty lackluster to say the least. It took an inordinate amount of time, which never helps the taste profile. I know'espresso' is in the name of the shop, & the pour-over concept is sort of newer north of the border. Just 2 years ago I couldn't find a pour-over anywhere between Montreal & Tremblant. So this is a good step.

As mentioned, the service for the cup was slow. 2 people behind the counter were nice enough; the girl more than the guy. He made the cup & it just took a while.

The chocolate pastry we got was excellent.

Atmosphere was very nice, but small inside. There are a few spots at the counter but generally this is a takeaway shop. I do enjoy sitting & tasting the coffee. But that wasn't in the cards for this trip so we brought it with us.

Next time I'll try the espresso to see if it hits better.
