Excellent café in the Wellington area of Verdun. Their coffee is on par with Stumptown and other Seattle/West Coast offerings, in an up-and-coming neighborhood of Montréal that happened to have a street festival going on that weekend all along Wellington.
I went there 3 mornings in a row while visiting friends in town. Got a very detailed description of the beans, none of it is black-roasted like you-know-who. Delicate but full-bodied flavor for espresso drinkers. Food was great as well. I had a plain croissant and the standard breakfast sandwich (arugula, gruyere, egg & bacon) on toasted bread. Delightful. They were even polite enough to listen to me mangle my order en Francais and thank me for the attempt at language diversity afterwards. I did not stick around, but it appears to be a hang-out spot for polite conversation and students/people with laptops.
Looking forward to brewing with the beans I bought and brought back.
