| - Location: In the the heart of the Plateau. Since I'm a big-time walker, I don't pay much attention to subway stops other than the ones I frequently use so... from my POV, Mont-Royal is likely the closest, then you've got a quick 5-10 minute trek. Street parking is available but like finding a needle in a haystack in this neighbourhood.
The place: I LOVED the space. I don't know why, but it reminded me of a local coffee shop or general store in Maine. It's got a warm and cozy feel to it, with wood accents and pops of blue, and a pretty large counter where you place your order. They have a small array of sweets on offer, and two types of beans if I recall - Anchored and Cut. Maybe I lucked out, but the place was not infested with a large proportion of hipsters when I went, and that pleased me immensely.
The goods: I had a Cortado and really enjoyed it. It was a little more bitter than I normally like but this did not affect my enjoyment whatsoever. Tasty! Though I didn't order anything to eat, I did pick at my friend's chocolate chip cookie and thought I might just die from sheer ecstasy and the foodgasm happening in my mouth. I don't know who makes these for Nevé but I need their number. That said, I don't think I could eat an entire cookie because they are gigantic. And chocolatey. And like, gooey. Yum.
Service: Good. The guy at the cash was friendly!
Price point: I think my Cortado was $3, so on par with most places.
