Definitely top 3 coffee I ever had so far. I was in Montreal for 5 days, and since I tried their…read morecoffee, I was there every day:) The service is friendly, they all speak English as well.

Great coffee, friendly staff and eco friendly!…read more Love the fact that they have those lids where you don't need straws for their cold drinks. They also offer paper straws if you do need one. I got the iced latte and it was great and smooth. You can also add your own sweetness level with their syrup. As for the service, it was quick and the staff was friendly. The place isn't big but it's very cozy and clean. It's right accross metro de l'eglise.

Structure is a well crafted cup of brew. I got the latte and went back for more. They had a nice…read moreselection of fresh pastries too. The almond croissant was a solid choice. They take care in making sure your order is made with love and bring it to you to enjoy after ordering at the counter. It has a cool vibe with vinyl records and tucked down below the sidewalk a bit (so you might walk past it, but 100% work walking back for).

I was in Montreal on a work trip recently and stumbled across this amazing coffee shop and roaster…read more I am pretty routinely disappointed by the "pour over" made in a shop when I travel... but this place was great. I thought it might be good because their menu called the pour over a "V60." I tried three different beans over the course of my stay. All were dialed in super well and the cup was balanced, "structured" (aha you see what I did there?), and most of all, a pleasure to drink. My friends all got espresso options which they loved. Ambiance, decor, and service is also top notch.

Saw this coffee sold at a number of specialty food shops around the city but this little stop is…read morewhere you get the biggest selection. The service was slow but very intentional. There is only one barista who calls locals by name and takes the time to make each espresso with more care than the hundreds of other places I've been over the years. He carefully explained various beans I was interested in purchasing and got a more ideal bag that was not on the shelf due to roast date. They were overall low on their usual selection according to him at the time I was in town. The pour over I had (free with purchase of beans) was excellent.

I arrived about 10 minutes early but the baristas and sales people were kind to let me into cafe. I…read moreordered the latte and it was good. It had a subtle taste to it. The cafe is located in a Burton lifestyle/sports retail store. They have a coffee lounge area in the back of the store. Nice to have great options in MTL.

Whilst I bet this is a great coffee shop, please do not go here for the hot chocolate…read more The interior is stunning and a really cute work/ study/ social space with some super fun decor. It smelt like really good coffee, but I was really in the mood for hot chocolate. You know how it is, super cold outside... You just need it. And it was so disappointing. Definitely made from some cheap chocolate powder with way too much milk, and it wasn't even that hot. It hardly even tasted of chocolate. Really disappointing and definitely not worth the $6 for some watered down chocolate with milk.

Very serious coffee…read more If you are a make-your-coffee-at-home kind of person, (I am not), You can buy a dozen or so kinds of beans here. I am guessing they are pretty good. If you are trying to improve on Starbucks - with barista-made coffee drinks, food and a place to write your magnum opus, Bruleries FARO is pretty damm good. Their espresso is a useful component in a coffee education. They do a Golden Gate espresso which is designed to be the lightest most citrusy coffee on the planet. All the lemon flavor comes from the bean itself rather than any add-ons after brewing. The coffee packs an amazing amount of citrus flavor. Now - me personally - I am a dark, dark, darker than mud coffee guy. Burn your beans and I adore you. I order the darkest roast in the house. Give me chocolate overtones or spice overtones - thank you very much. A citrus coffee on a megalight roast is as odd for me as a giraffe wearing a sweater. But over thought and retastings, I slowly came to terms with this new kid on the block. Say what you will - first thing in the morning a citrus coffee will definitely wake you up. This is one of those strong flavors similar to the strong flavors in a Mediterranean breakfast where they give you feta cheese raw scallions and a pepperoncini to go with coffee. The lemon is far more subtle and delicate - but it is definitely there to shake you out of your cobwebs. I was good friends with Golden Gate espresso by the time I was done. For food they offer the normal run of brownies, pastries and sandwiches, along with two salad bowls offered by a commercial vendor. The bowls have a name like Buddha Bols - and for a commercial salad they are pretty good. Not so much lettuce - yes so much alt vegetables - and a good peanutty dressing. And - although I did not plan things this way - a light roast goes better with salad than does a dark roast. (Soon there are going to be food pairings with coffee just as there are food pairings with wine. You want a strong Shiraz with that Chile con Carne and end with full bodied dark roast over dessert.) The room is a lovely place to be. Note that other Yelp reviews complain about service. A few complain about price. I have no idea what the complainers are talking about. There were two hard working baristas at the counter. They took a long time to craft every coffee. But they were working nonstop - and were as nice and pleasant as one could ask for. They were both charmers and skilled artisans. And if you have a chain working to develop higher ideas about what coffee should be - it is reasonable to expect to have to pay a fair price for that coffee. (Not to mention the fact that all of their coffee is Fair Trade in the first place. The growers back in Ethiopia or Nicaragua get their cut - as sadly also does the middleman.) * * * Overall, this is a first rate place. If I really wanted to get fully educated - I probably ought to start drinking my way through the rest of the bean bins in the lineup.

When you look at the pictures, you obviously get that there will be a limited menu over here, but you get your typical coffee options, some viennoiseries and yogurt, and other cold drinks. I ordered a soy cappuccino and it was delicious! Show some love for our local coffee baristas!!

I love that there's a good coffee shop that's not a huge corporation in South Shore. The local…read morecoffees are the best and this is one of the best roaster coffee places you'll find! I usually come every 2 weeks and get the Muerte. The cashier is super friendly knowledgable and patient. The first time I came I don't know what was popular or what to take, I asked her quite a few questions and she stay cordial throughout all my questions. You can order online or come inside the coffee shop and grab a bag already made or order a bigger one. Since I don't live that close every time I grab a new bag I will grab a coffee. During the summer they have the iced Maple mocha I highly suggest to get it with coffee ice cubes rather than regular ice cubes it makes the whole difference for when the ice cubes Mel's it becomes more of a coffee flavour rather than a watery flavor. During The colder fall/winter days I like to order a maple mocha or a vanilla latte it's insanely good the coffee tastes fresh and the sweetness from the maple is perfect! Recently I had an issue with one of the bags that I had purchased it had a burnt taste even as you open the bag you could smell the Burt beans. I spoke with the owner and what surprised me the most is how professional and how caring he was about the situation. It wasn't a simple apology and offer for a replacement but it was very sincere and honest, Which is definitely something that a lot of the business owners are missing nowadays. Of course he offered to replace the bag which I was very grateful for and the new bag tasted so good. Having the situation happen and seeing how he handled the whole thing just gives me more love for this local roaster. It's great to be able to make a good coffee but Also know how to keep the relationship blooming with the customers is something that a lot of people need to remember. I'm not saying that the customer is always right but that the customer is an important factor. If you're in south shore definitely check them out and even if you're not they're coffee are worth the drive!

Great new artisanal café in Greenfield park! It's very cozy inside with many tables. They have…read morereally comfortable chairs at each of their tables and a terrasse for the summer. Their coffee was very good! They offer a wide range of coffee drinks and teas as well as fresh pastries each day including croissants, muffins and cakes. They have a water bar to serve yourself a glass free of charge and free WiFi for you to stay a while. Prices were very reasonable, about the same price as Starbucks. I'm really glad GPK finally has a nice artisanal coffee shop!
