Excellent cafe (went June 2026). The flat white was great, even with regular espresso beans selection, the espresso was quite nice & had pleasant flavours, right ratio of espresso to milk. Also skillful barista delivered nice microfoam & latte art.

Just perfect. Finally we could drink some quality specialty coffee during our trip. Ethiopian espresso from Mirra & kenyan batch brew from SEY were both extracted super well.

Great selection of beans from popular north american roasters if you are looking to shop for specialty coffee, this is the place to be in Montréal.

The maple syrup-pecan roll & jalapeno-cheddar scone were great as well.

Amazing local cafe, the banana muffin was great & their espresso blend is on point! My new go-to spot.

Excellent (albeit super tiny) cappuccino. However, the almond croissant was the worst ever croissant created. Soggy, no taste of almonds, no difference between crust & filling....& all this after asking if the croissant was fresh... I don't want to imagine what was a not fresh croissant.
With that, the salmon sandwich that my spouse had was great. Her espresso was also very good.

Lovely artsy café in a beautiful vibrant neighborhood. Great coffee (espresso) with Canelé & they also serve vermut & wine testing. Felt almost like in Barcelona vibe.
True vibe!!! Only con is that I'm leaving & won't be able to enjoy it. Hasta pronto! 🥂

Great cafe with a comfortable atmosphere. The espresso was okay, & the crossaint didn't taste fresh. Staff was very friendly & drinks were put pretty quickly. Overall good experience.

Amazing espresso. Most unique tasting beans I’ve had so far. Great minimalist atmosphere. Selection of local wine available for purchase too. Baristas are kind. Usually busy with students, & since the place is smaller, only accommodates a few. Don’t let that deter you from coming to get a cup on the go!
