The World’s 100 Best Coffee Shops has released its top 100 spots in North America, and Montreal’s Café Pista, Café Saint-Henri, Micro Espresso and Café Éclair are among them.
Through both a panel of expert evaluations and public voting, the ranking system evaluates coffee shops based on a combination of product quality and experience. To ensure that voters adhere to a broad number of qualification aspects, The World’s 100 Best Coffee Shops lists an established set of criteria:
- Quality of coffee
- Barista experience
- Customer service
- Innovation
- Ambience and atmosphere
- Sustainability practices
- Food and pastry quality
- Community
It is with all of these criteria in mind that these four Montreal shops made the cut.
Highest on the list is Café Pista, at #34. The third-wave cafe-roaster makes a conscious effort to build community beyond the cafe environment, directing its financial resources and attention to micro-producers and fostering relationships with its partners. Their cafes evoke the lands from which they source their coffee, projecting a minimalist style with hanging lightbulbs and open spaces, tending towards neutral greens, light woods, and the occasional white brick wall.
Café Saint-Henri, ranked #40, was the first micro-roaster in Quebec. They aim to provide as much purchase transparency as possible, and work to share their knowledge through workshops and brew guides. Though their headquarters leans a bit moodier and industrial, with concrete floors, exposed ceilings, and leather chairs, they preserve an organic kind of ambiance with greenery and wood fixtures.
