Tried every other specialty cafe before coming here, & cantook beats all of them. They have the best coffee taste & cookies that pair perfectly with it.
The interior is the prettiest too, with cozy ambient music.

Café très robuste & acidulé. Très cozy mais très peu d'espace pour s'asseoir. Prix très abordables. Je recommande pour un café à emporter.

I can't comment on the food/cookies. The coffee selection is large & the staff have a good know-how on where the coffee has been harvested & how they have been processed. I believe they have direct contact to some of the plantations in Costa Rica & are directly involved in parts of the process. They are very helpful with any questions you may have in regards to the different coffee beans they sell & take their time. The atmosphere is cozy. Recommend to come here!
