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.

Best coffee shop in the area. Their coffee is delicious, they have lots of alternative milk options & actually know how to steam them properly. The seating outside is also super nice.

In addition to a full menu of espresso drinks & pour overs, they also have a huge selection of small batch roasted beans available for purchase in increments of 100g. I had a Costa Rican brewed in a Chemex. It was excellent & very reasonably priced. A few tables inside & on the sidewalk outside the store are the seating options. The location is on a nice street a few hundred yards away from the busy streets in old town. Highly recommend their coffee.

Super cute & lovely atmosphere. The coffee is really good & they have a good balance of sweetness for the mocha. Also cool to see they roast coffee in house. If I had one thing I would change, that would be more seating inside to enjoy the decorations. Definitely will come back next time I am in Quebec!

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.
