Adèle Flannery replied to the topic What is your favourite coffee shop in Montreal? in the discussion
ARLIS/NA MOQ on ARLISNA Commons 3 years, 6 months agoThere’s a café for every mood! That’s what I love about the coffee scene in Montréal (though most of these are around Little Italy/Villeray):
Caffè Italia or Ferlucci for some good old fashion italian coffee (also, Café 1880 downtown)
Café Larue or Café St-Henri for some floral 3rd wave coffee
🙂
