| - Great industrial decor, great place to chill out, solid coffee and I can't wait to come back to try the Japanese food for lunch!
Doesn't disappoint for coffee. Didn't realize, but they don't do espresso - only siphon coffee. Don't worry, its excellent and about the same size as a small/medium allonge. Not quite as big as a regular filter coffee.
Oh, and they do decaf! And its single origin Colombian and its delicious! Seriously, never had such a good decaf in my life. Wish more places would take decaf seriously!
The Japanese food looked and smelled delicious, can't wait to come back.
The location is a bit out of the way, but this area has changed so much in the past few years! Sorry, I'm not a local anymore but I suspect the massive Ubisoft office a few blocks away has initiated a domino effect and there are now so many new more upscale places on St Viateur for example. Sorry, I'm feeling like one of those old people who complain about gentrification! I remember the good old days! Haha. Lol. No seriously, I love Falco but I remember only like 5-10 years ago and Mile End was more local and low key. Oh well. I guess that's where everyone now talks about Mile-X. Thankfully for gentrification, there are clients for Falco. Because even only 5 years ago this street was kind of a no mans land - everything was focused (even then a bit spotty) on St Laurent, du Parc, St Viateur, etc.
Just don't go closing down the old businesses! And I'll be happy.
