Service vraiment à revoir, zéro sourire à peine un bonjour & le café mais dégeulasse, honnêtement, pour un coffee shop qui se dit de spécialité, c'est décevant

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.

This is truly a specialty coffee shop! It just opened, but it's worth visiting for the coffee alone - 100% recommended for specialty coffee lovers!

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!

Not once, not twice...but thrice. This was our favourite coffee shop & a frequent stop while visiting Montreal. The espresso was well rounded, smooth & flavourful. The barista's were consistent, with proper technique & skill. A must visit.

Tucked away at a building in the Old City, this coffee shop is small but quaint with a great atmosphere & service. The coffee itself is locally roasted. They have Cold Brew which is always a plus to me! The coffee itself tastes delicious & I highly recommend!
