This little espresso bar on St-Pierre just off the main tourist strip of St-Paul in Old Montreal is a great spot for a quick coffee when you are looking for quality caffeination but are not in the mood to wait in line for a table at the noisy and always hectic O+G around the corner.
Not that everyone will appreciate this but for a giant design nerd like myself, the super modern minimalistic wood interior with 60s-inspired collages on the walls and well-curated design magazine rack was a huge bonus.
For real though if you are in the old port and need to kill a half an hour or so and don't want to have to sit next to American tourists with fanny packs, this place is your best bet by far.
