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.

10378392/10 stars for coffee, vibes, & value. There's absolutely no reason to go to a chain cafe when you have a coffee shop like this in the neighbourhood.

Nice coffee shop, flat white was really nice & their chai latte was one of the best in the town so far. Not too swet & i was able to taste the spices. They sell recently roasted coffee beans & they can also blend them for filtered coffee. Good place to grab a coffee & go. Not much options for desserts but there are plenty of bakeries nearby.

Coffee so good, I came back twice!

The shop was on my list to grab a bag of beans & coffee.

With so many cafe options, this is definitely the spot for a consistent & flavourful coffee.

I wish more people would stop & shop here rather than the golden arches & the green seattle brand.

Support your local coffee shops & enjoy better coffee!

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.

Good service. Welcoming to our pet. Smell of coffee in here is ridiculous. & pretty coffee art. If I own a coffee shop, I would own something like this. A good neighborhood shop. They have comfortable chairs outside on a Sunday morning. They are empty but I can't say for later on in the day.
