Micro Espresso Café

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.

I'm not sure if Micro Espresso was having an off day, but our experience was quite disappointing. Both my wife & I ordered Americanos-mine was decaf & hers was regular. Unfortunately, both drinks were extremely bitter & lacked the rich coffee flavor we were expecting. The overall quality was not up to par, leaving us both quite dissatisfied. Hopefully, this was just an anomaly, but based on this visit, we were not impressed.

Delicious espresso & in a great location! Skip the tourist traps around this area & stop by here for the best coffee in the city. My cortado was rich & velvety - by far the best quality I've had on my trip thus far.

Micro Espresso has a lovely blend of quality & service difficult to find elsewhere in the city. Their coffee was delicious: well-roasted & carefully brewed. Both baristas were friendly & knowledgable. They were experts in their coffee & knew details beyond a regular consumer coffee shop, such as their SCA cup quality, their varietals of coffee, & their harvest dates. I highly recommend going to Micro Espresso for a delicious cup & a nice chat with experts in the field. They might change your mind on whether you love coffee or if it loves you.
