My bicycle-crazy friend insisted that we all go here on our visit to Montreal. It's a great little coffee shop (and a bike shop, too-- that's pretty cool!). The vibe reminds me a bit of Maglianero in Burlington, VT. I eschewed a drink in favor of some wonderful chocolate cake thing that was filled with a chocolatey, gooey substance in the middle and it was DELICIOUS. My friends got coffees and beers, though, be warned-- if you get a beer you have to order a non-alcohol item with it. I guess they don't want this place turning into a bar, and I can understand that.
Super location-- it's across from the park, and just down the road from Resto La Banquise, where you can find some of the best poutine in the city.
