Review Summary

Tunnel Espresso Bar serves as a welcoming sanctuary nestled within a bookstore, offering a unique atmosphere complemented by quality coffee, such as the well balanced iced latte. While experiences with temperature control for hot beverages and pastries have varied, the overall environment is highly regarded for its warm vibe and the delightful addition of a public piano, which often provides a charming musical backdrop for guests.

I'm so disappointed that I spent my hard earned money at this cafe. The chocolatine I got was so dry it can't even be a chocolatine because those are supposed to be buttery & soft & mine was dry & hard. The chai latte I ordered literally tasted like warm milk, nothing else, no hint of chai or spice. Also when I came to order the girl behind the counter told me'I'm on break' & she told the same thing to the man behind me, we looked at each other confused because normally employees would go to some employee room for their break & not stand behind the counter. After one bite of the 5.30$ chocolatine I brought it back to her & she was kind enough to reimburse it to me but I felt too bad to do the same with the 6.90$ chai because she was the one to make it, unlike the chocolatine which I'm assuming wasn't her fault. I would highly appreciate if the manager could do something about this. Either reimburse the warm milk I got or give a credit for a better experience next time because I go to this Indigo store often & would love to have quality drinks there sometimes but everytime I've tried this cafe it's been disappointing spending money there.

Hot chocolate wasn't warm enough & she couldn't make croissant warm either.

A bold, well-balanced iced latte gets even smoother & more enjoyable with a hint of cane sugar.

One of the best coffee in Montreal if not the best, place often has a few people playing piano, nonetheless it is often crowded & a bit understaffed
