Review Summary

Cantook Micro Torréfaction is widely regarded as a premier destination in Quebec City, celebrated for its high quality, consistently flavorful coffee and welcoming, cozy atmosphere. Visitors frequently praise the expertise of the staff and the diverse selection of expertly roasted beans available for purchase, often noting that the beverages, such as the flat white, cortado, and mocha, are among the best in the city. While the shop is small with limited indoor seating, the charming decor and pleasant street-side benches provide a lovely experience for patrons. Although a few reviewers mentioned frustrations regarding online order management and subscription cancellations, the general consensus remains overwhelmingly positive, with many customers recommending it as a must-visit spot that surpasses large commercial chains.

Good coffee. I got their beans this time as well & they're holding up.

They have very little seating & it's more suitable if you're going alone or with just one person but it's a lovely view. I spent a pleasant half an hour here drinking my coffee & reading my book.

As an aspiring coffee snob, I would say that this is the best espresso I've had so far in Qu

This cafe is my first coffee in Quebec City! The store looks tidy & stylish. I was excited to try their drinks more after I stepped in the store. There is a nice latter art on my cup. The espresso tastes fruity first, & tasted nutty afterwards. My favourite flat white in the downtown area during this trip!

I greatly enjoyed sipping my delicious pour over while sitting in the front window of the storefront. I was thankful they have Wi-Fi as I had to get some work done while sitting there. I I have a wide selection of roasts from which to choose. I could not make up my mind. The service was great. So, after a quick discussion with the kind person behind the counter, I selected their Costa Rican. The entire experience was great & it reminded me to enjoy the coffee & the atmosphere. Thanks, Cantook.

Stopped by every day on our visit. Such good coffee & I'm having withdrawals already. We got iced & hot lattes & they were superb. Price was amazing, too. Helpful, kind staff. Great location. We brought home some beans for our espresso machine but already scheming a way to go back just for this coffee

Amazing coffee! We got the pour over one day (you can choose your own beans) & came back for the cold brew. You can see the cold brew being made in the cafe - very cool! Would highly recommend.
