Coffee is so good! Take also one home, I bought the one of Perú, with mandarin, caramel & praline, nothing to regret!

After two weeks in the US & Canada drinking coffee at places like Starbucks with that burnt coffee taste, we finally had coffee that was nothing less than excellent. The service is amazing, & the precision in the coffee is incredible as well.

The Yama tea & fudge cold brew were extremely bitter & undrinkable. The iced latte & cappuccino were okay, but nothing great. The iced latte had unfiltered coffee grounds in it, I did ask for it to be remade & the barista was open to remake it & had a good attitude.

My favorite coffee experience in the Quebec city area. I enjoyed the coffee & service so much I would cross the bridge every morning to get my coffee.

The staff is friendly & helpful, they're not afraid to make suggestions & make your caffeine dose more enjoyable. Even while savoring their wonderful brews made with their in house roasted beans, they'll discuss the trade with you making the overall experience something you'll never find in one of those green label Seattle brand establishments.

Can't recommend enough.

Loved their coffee & grabbed a bean to go! Tried a cortado & iced americano, both were great. That iced americano kept me awake for the drive back to Toronto. Plenty of seating & great staff.

There's no lot of spots around Quebec for specialty coffee but Nektar scratches the itch. I love that you don't need to go downtown Quebec to get a nice cup of coffee. They don't do pour overs but they often have selection of coffees available on drip or espresso. The light roast espresso was pulled a bit too sour but as Americano with hot water the coffee notes came out nicely.

This coffee is of the highest quality & is a must-try for any coffee enthusiast. A small selection of pastries is also available to complement the coffee.
