Went to this coffee store for the first time, the place was rustic, the smell of coffee beans adds an accents to the coziness. The Nitro Cold Brew they serve leaves a great impression it was smooth but mostly it has a fruitiness that hard to ignore, compare to one other cafe with Nitro Cold Brew this has to be the best by far.

I've been buying coffee from Zab for years & live in the neighbourhood, so it's really disappointing to leave this review. The coffee itself is genuinely good, but the way customers are treated is not acceptable.

On multiple occasions, I noticed staff refusing to speak French to non-white customers while readily speaking French with white customers. The difference in treatment is impossible to ignore & feels deeply disrespectful & exclusionary. As someone who has supported this business for years, these experiences have made it clear that not everyone is treated equally here.

Montréal is diverse, & customers should not feel judged or treated differently based on how they look. Unfortunately, because of these experiences, I will not be returning. I'm sharing this so other people are aware & can make informed decisions about where they spend their money.

I've been ordering coffee from as many Canadian roasters as I can for the past 1.5+ years, & Zab is the one I keep coming back to, & my'daily driver'. I can confidently say it is one of the, if not the best, out there. Great quality, consistent roasts, unique flavours, & super-fast shipping, great for espresso (which I use Zab for daily) & pour-over, local to Montreal, etc. etc. Could not recommend Zab more, I even gift this coffee as often an I can 😂. Thanks, Zab! Bravo
